WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:03.240 The LA Clippers. The game is ended. 2 00:00:03.359 --> 00:00:05.679 Gather round boys, time to recap. 3 00:00:05.839 --> 00:00:08.720 But the post game coverage is just getting started. 4 00:00:08.800 --> 00:00:10.160 The successes the failure. 5 00:00:10.439 --> 00:00:11.119 Let's discuss. 6 00:00:11.320 --> 00:00:14.960 This is Clippers locker room breaking down today's action with 7 00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:17.399 the pre and post game voice of the Clippers. 8 00:00:18.160 --> 00:00:19.640 Here's that a moss led. 9 00:00:20.960 --> 00:00:26.000 The Clippers get Paul Georgia rude welcoming home. They went 10 00:00:26.079 --> 00:00:31.000 it into it. Don't big over their former teammate one 11 00:00:31.160 --> 00:00:35.399 ten to ninety eight. Welcome into your Clippers postgame show. 12 00:00:35.439 --> 00:00:38.159 This is Clippers' locker room. Coming up. We will have 13 00:00:38.159 --> 00:00:40.359 Clippers talk on a five seventy LA Sports if you 14 00:00:40.399 --> 00:00:42.560 want to get on early. Eight sixty six nine seven 15 00:00:42.600 --> 00:00:45.759 two five seventy eight sixty six nine eight seven two 16 00:00:45.880 --> 00:00:49.280 five seventy is the phone number where we are rejoined 17 00:00:49.280 --> 00:00:52.799 by your radio voice of the Clippers in Carlo Jimenez, 18 00:00:53.439 --> 00:00:57.640 Carlo Justice. Coach lu drew it up. This was even 19 00:00:57.719 --> 00:01:00.679 with some subpar performances shooting perform Ward says by a 20 00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:03.799 couple of stars that you expect to be better. The 21 00:01:03.840 --> 00:01:07.560 Clippers still had this game over with about three and 22 00:01:07.599 --> 00:01:09.480 a half minutes left. That was impressive. 23 00:01:09.719 --> 00:01:13.000 It was a comfortable confident group today, Adam, and a 24 00:01:13.040 --> 00:01:15.560 comfortable win is what they came away with. I mean, 25 00:01:15.599 --> 00:01:19.480 Philadelphia shoots fifty four percent today from the field, and 26 00:01:19.519 --> 00:01:23.840 the Clippers were in control the entirety of that fourth quarter. 27 00:01:24.280 --> 00:01:26.719 And impressive win for a group that's looking to build 28 00:01:26.719 --> 00:01:29.599 some momentum. And you mentioned it the San Antonio game, 29 00:01:30.159 --> 00:01:33.400 finding how they can win games with their defense. They 30 00:01:33.439 --> 00:01:37.439 forced twenty turnovers today and get twenty seven points off 31 00:01:37.480 --> 00:01:40.079 those twenty turnovers. I think Norman pal continues to be 32 00:01:40.079 --> 00:01:43.040 a shining star for this team. Twenty six points. It's 33 00:01:43.079 --> 00:01:46.439 almost at him becoming routine. I mean it really is. 34 00:01:46.480 --> 00:01:48.599 Are we gonna be hearing Game forty and saying Norman 35 00:01:48.599 --> 00:01:50.760 palen Ano their twenty point game. I hope so, because 36 00:01:50.760 --> 00:01:53.560 that's the way he has been playing for this Clipper team. 37 00:01:53.879 --> 00:01:56.719 And like you mentioned, James Harden doesn't have his best 38 00:01:56.840 --> 00:01:59.719 night and it's no problem. This Clipper team still comes 39 00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:02.640 away the victory. Coming into this season, you weren't sure it. 40 00:02:02.719 --> 00:02:05.079 James Harten was gonna have to play so well. He 41 00:02:05.159 --> 00:02:07.640 talked about a media day, a lot of this offense 42 00:02:07.719 --> 00:02:09.759 is going to be, in his words, a lot of 43 00:02:09.840 --> 00:02:12.120 him and it has been but at the same time, 44 00:02:12.240 --> 00:02:15.599 other guys continue to play well because of the gravity 45 00:02:15.919 --> 00:02:19.000 that is paid attention to him on the offensive end. 46 00:02:19.280 --> 00:02:22.919 The Clippers really finding their style through the last two 47 00:02:22.960 --> 00:02:24.840 games of this five game homestand. 48 00:02:24.520 --> 00:02:27.439 Yeah, other guys contributing a mere coffee and another double ditchit 49 00:02:27.520 --> 00:02:29.960 game off the bench, some key three pointers. It was 50 00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:31.879 down to a fifteen point game. It was getting a 51 00:02:31.919 --> 00:02:34.080 little bit sketchy in the fourth quarter. There's still plenty 52 00:02:34.080 --> 00:02:36.719 of time left. Amir comes in from Niko Batoom and 53 00:02:36.759 --> 00:02:39.319 immediately knocks down a three pointer in the far side corner. 54 00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:42.159 And the ball movement by this Clippers team twenty seven 55 00:02:42.159 --> 00:02:46.319 assists on their forty one made shots, just pristine tonight. 56 00:02:46.520 --> 00:02:48.439 I love the way they were moving it. I know 57 00:02:48.479 --> 00:02:50.400 there were a lot of turnovers. Some of them came 58 00:02:50.439 --> 00:02:53.960 an inconsequential time, but there were some great possessions when 59 00:02:54.000 --> 00:02:57.240 they had to execute late with those timeouts being called 60 00:02:57.240 --> 00:03:00.159 from coach lou He drew it up. They were able 61 00:03:00.199 --> 00:03:00.599 to deliver. 62 00:03:00.919 --> 00:03:03.560 They were able to deliver. The Clippers out of timeout 63 00:03:03.560 --> 00:03:06.960 plays were excellent. The vertical threat with Derek Jones Junior 64 00:03:06.960 --> 00:03:09.639 got him a couple of dunks, a mere coffee, an 65 00:03:09.639 --> 00:03:12.919 open corner three on one of them. The Clippers really 66 00:03:13.039 --> 00:03:15.439 executed late and that's why you see the assists number 67 00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:18.360 up to twenty seven today for this Clipper team. They 68 00:03:18.400 --> 00:03:20.879 moved the ball well on the offensive end, they got 69 00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:23.439 guys involved, and they were efficient. I mean this starting 70 00:03:23.439 --> 00:03:27.439 group Adham was super super efficient today. Only James Hard 71 00:03:27.439 --> 00:03:30.039 and Shapollo fifty percent on the ball game out of 72 00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:33.680 the five starters for the Clippers. They spread the wealth around, 73 00:03:33.919 --> 00:03:36.560 they made shouts when they were open, and they dominated. 74 00:03:36.599 --> 00:03:38.960 And they came in this game with a little bit 75 00:03:39.039 --> 00:03:40.719 of that chip on their shoulder. You could see it 76 00:03:40.719 --> 00:03:43.759 from the start. This team was playing hard, especially Norman Powell. 77 00:03:43.800 --> 00:03:46.639 I thought he was uber aggressive when he was matched 78 00:03:46.719 --> 00:03:48.879 up against Paul George, and he showed out with those 79 00:03:48.919 --> 00:03:52.800 twenty six points and six assists, matching a career high. 80 00:03:53.080 --> 00:03:54.879 Clippers a good win to build on. 81 00:03:55.319 --> 00:03:57.639 Now, you want to keep building on this win as 82 00:03:57.639 --> 00:04:00.280 you go to a Sacramento team that's sitting at fine 83 00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:01.639 and three to start the year. 84 00:04:01.919 --> 00:04:04.360 Yeah, and as much as we've talked about Paul George 85 00:04:04.360 --> 00:04:07.240 in this one, the most important thing is that the 86 00:04:07.280 --> 00:04:10.919 Clippers got a victory against him. That's what this is about, 87 00:04:11.039 --> 00:04:15.000 right now, this Clippers team showing up and not turning 88 00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:17.199 it into just an individual battle out there. Well, we 89 00:04:17.240 --> 00:04:19.160 got some of that between him and Norm Powell in 90 00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:22.680 the second half. More importantly than that, the Clippers ended 91 00:04:22.759 --> 00:04:25.800 up with this big w They did get four turnovers 92 00:04:25.800 --> 00:04:27.839 from PG thirteen, who at one point, what was he 93 00:04:27.959 --> 00:04:30.319 four to four or five of five to start from 94 00:04:30.360 --> 00:04:32.959 the field. Yeah, he was spectacular. He hit a couple 95 00:04:33.040 --> 00:04:35.879 of tough shots on the fourth quarter right away over 96 00:04:35.920 --> 00:04:38.920 a double team with Chris Dunn and Niko Batoom. There 97 00:04:38.959 --> 00:04:40.920 aren't many tougher double teams that hit a shot over 98 00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:43.480 than that. Then another one over Chris Dunn. The offense 99 00:04:43.600 --> 00:04:46.480 was there, the beautiful jumper was there, but he only 100 00:04:46.519 --> 00:04:49.560 got up nine shots total in his twenty four minutes. 101 00:04:49.800 --> 00:04:51.680 Still seems to be on that minute restriction, and of 102 00:04:51.720 --> 00:04:53.360 course when the Clippers are up big like this, it 103 00:04:53.439 --> 00:04:56.920 kept him there. Yeah. So this Clippers team, you know, 104 00:04:57.319 --> 00:04:59.240 they won the battle and the war. You could say, 105 00:04:59.240 --> 00:05:01.199 in some ways they did it all in this one. 106 00:05:01.240 --> 00:05:04.199 They won the individual battle with Paul George being back, 107 00:05:04.399 --> 00:05:06.600 and they also took care of their business in just 108 00:05:06.639 --> 00:05:07.920 getting a great team victory. 109 00:05:08.160 --> 00:05:11.399 Yeah, two wins for them today. One hundred percent agree. 110 00:05:11.439 --> 00:05:13.800 They were able to keep Paul George for the most 111 00:05:13.839 --> 00:05:16.759 part in check and come away with a win in 112 00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:20.800 this one with those twenty seven assists. They were out 113 00:05:20.839 --> 00:05:22.959 rebound today, which is a new one for the Clippers, 114 00:05:22.959 --> 00:05:25.199 but fifty four points in the paint. That is the 115 00:05:25.279 --> 00:05:28.560 sixth game of seven games this season the Clippers finished 116 00:05:28.759 --> 00:05:32.360 with fifty plus points in the paint. They looked comfortable today, Adam, 117 00:05:32.439 --> 00:05:34.319 I think that's what stands out to me. The Clippers 118 00:05:34.480 --> 00:05:37.000 looked comfortable. They looked composed, They looked like they knew 119 00:05:37.040 --> 00:05:39.040 where they were going on the offensive end, and on 120 00:05:39.079 --> 00:05:42.439 the defensive end, they were in every passing lane. Anytime 121 00:05:42.480 --> 00:05:45.519 anybody drove, they double teamed him. I mean Tyrese Maxi 122 00:05:45.759 --> 00:05:48.480 finished this game with just twelve points and thirty one minutes. 123 00:05:48.600 --> 00:05:51.040 Took him thirteen shots to get to those twelve points 124 00:05:51.079 --> 00:05:53.839 and finish one for six from three. The Clippers made 125 00:05:53.879 --> 00:05:56.800 him a non factor today on the offensive end, a 126 00:05:56.839 --> 00:06:00.439 guy who was leading this team averaging thirty to start 127 00:06:00.480 --> 00:06:03.759 the season. And so we'll see if the Clippers can 128 00:06:03.759 --> 00:06:06.600 find a way to continue to disrupt excellent point guards 129 00:06:06.600 --> 00:06:09.160 you got another one in Deer and Fox over there 130 00:06:09.199 --> 00:06:11.920 at Sacramento, a good one for the Clippers at him, 131 00:06:12.120 --> 00:06:14.839 and you got more coming. But hopefully you continue to 132 00:06:14.839 --> 00:06:16.319 build here today. 133 00:06:16.439 --> 00:06:20.319 Clippers making the opposition uncomfortable. It's a great point by 134 00:06:20.399 --> 00:06:22.160 you taking away the head of the snake, really in 135 00:06:22.199 --> 00:06:25.399 Tyrese Maxi, who au had been a volume shooter so 136 00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:27.519 far this season, taking twenty five shots to get to 137 00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:30.439 the thirty points per game, still only getting up thirteen 138 00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:32.959 and thirty one minutes. The Clippers were doing a lot 139 00:06:33.040 --> 00:06:36.399 right out there. Their rotations were much more crisp. I 140 00:06:36.439 --> 00:06:39.600 thought that even early on when Philly started off hot 141 00:06:39.639 --> 00:06:43.199 from three, well, they ended up shooting just seven of 142 00:06:43.319 --> 00:06:46.720 twenty five from distance under thirty percent. So once again 143 00:06:46.920 --> 00:06:49.240 Clippers get a team shooting under thirty percent here and 144 00:06:49.279 --> 00:06:51.560 into it Dome that started off knocking some down. Did 145 00:06:51.560 --> 00:06:53.319 they have six three pointers in that first quarter? 146 00:06:53.720 --> 00:06:55.879 Yeah, Philly, I was just doing the math, lad Philly 147 00:06:55.959 --> 00:06:58.519 was fine for eleven after the first quarter and then 148 00:06:58.560 --> 00:07:03.399 went two for six thirteen, two or fourteen. 149 00:07:03.800 --> 00:07:06.399 Clippers brought out the monkey resh to turn off the 150 00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:08.959 water or whatever it was, the faucet on the fire 151 00:07:09.040 --> 00:07:11.560 hose that started things off or on the fire hydrant, 152 00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:15.240 I should say, just an unbelievable defensive effort after that 153 00:07:15.279 --> 00:07:19.040 first quarter. Holding a team again under one hundred points 154 00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:22.399 is special in today's league, especially Clippers win one, ten 155 00:07:22.639 --> 00:07:25.480 to ninety eight. They take down Paul George and the 156 00:07:25.480 --> 00:07:28.560 Philadelphia seventy six ers here at into a Dome. Clippers 157 00:07:28.560 --> 00:07:31.199 next one is Carlo mentioned up in sack Town tiptime 158 00:07:31.199 --> 00:07:33.480 for that one, same as tonight at seven pm from 159 00:07:33.560 --> 00:07:36.120 Golden One Center against the Kings. Well, if your pregame 160 00:07:36.160 --> 00:07:39.480 show starting right back here at six, Carlo, great call 161 00:07:39.600 --> 00:07:42.759 is always say flight up north, get some jim Boys, tacos, 162 00:07:43.160 --> 00:07:45.480 all right at them the local giving me the wreck, 163 00:07:46.120 --> 00:07:49.839 let's go. Coming up next, we got second half highlights. 164 00:07:50.079 --> 00:07:53.519 Clippers pull away with this one win big Hey, they 165 00:07:53.519 --> 00:07:56.959 don't all have to be close games. Glad to be 166 00:07:57.000 --> 00:07:59.560 wrong about that one. Clippers win one, ten to ninety 167 00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:03.120 eighth PG and the Philadelphia seventy six ers here and 168 00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:06.959 into it Dome. Clipper nation was on point tonight. Patch 169 00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:09.560 yourself on the back, especially everybody at the wall. More 170 00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:11.839 on that coming up here in the Clippers postgame show 171 00:08:11.839 --> 00:08:14.600 on the Los Angeles Clippers Audio Network throws it up. 172 00:08:14.680 --> 00:08:18.319 The window finishes in the fowl. Los Angeles Clipper Nation. 173 00:08:18.560 --> 00:08:21.920 This is your home for the LA Clippers. LA Clippers. 174 00:08:22.199 --> 00:08:24.360 Take us with you on the Ihearts radio. 175 00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:29.399 AIP Clippers win one ten to ninety eight. Here at 176 00:08:29.399 --> 00:08:34.799 Into It Dome. They get one off of PG now 177 00:08:34.799 --> 00:08:37.919 with the enemy playing for the Philadelphia seventy six ers, 178 00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:43.000 Paul George goes home a loser tonight. Everybody the wall 179 00:08:43.080 --> 00:08:45.919 was animated and into it. Every time he touched the ball, 180 00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:49.799 he was being booed. Clippernation. You showed up in a 181 00:08:49.960 --> 00:08:55.480 huge way in this one and performed. Paul George also 182 00:08:55.519 --> 00:08:59.840 was pretty good in the ballgame. You can't not say uh, 183 00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:03.320 outside the four turnovers, at least he wasn't seven of 184 00:09:03.399 --> 00:09:06.240 nine eighteen points, two of three from distance, hit some 185 00:09:06.279 --> 00:09:09.600 impossible shots, but who cares. Norman Powell was the best 186 00:09:09.600 --> 00:09:12.279 player out there in the court. Twenty six points on 187 00:09:12.519 --> 00:09:18.399 ten shots. Twenty six points on ten shot attempts is 188 00:09:18.519 --> 00:09:22.639 crazy efficiency. Why because he went six of eight from 189 00:09:22.720 --> 00:09:28.080 three guys. He's doing it over and over and over 190 00:09:28.159 --> 00:09:30.840 again right now. This is not looking like a fluke 191 00:09:30.840 --> 00:09:32.919 from Norman Powell. This is looking like a guy who's 192 00:09:32.919 --> 00:09:36.399 taking advantage of his opportunity. He just went five of 193 00:09:36.399 --> 00:09:40.200 eight last game against San Antonio from three, three of six. 194 00:09:40.240 --> 00:09:43.080 Before that, four of eleven, five of ten, seven of eleven. 195 00:09:43.399 --> 00:09:46.440 He's had two bad shooting games from the outside total, 196 00:09:48.720 --> 00:09:53.919 and just six really good games from three. He was 197 00:09:53.960 --> 00:09:56.639 shooting forty five percent from three heading into this one. 198 00:09:57.159 --> 00:10:00.440 That's only going up. He just hit seven twenty five 199 00:10:00.440 --> 00:10:03.600 percent of his attempts from three. Here it into a 200 00:10:03.639 --> 00:10:09.519 dome and outplayed Paul George. He said it addition by subtraction. 201 00:10:10.960 --> 00:10:15.720 He's backing up his talk right now. He is, and 202 00:10:15.799 --> 00:10:20.399 this Clippers team backed up a big victory where he 203 00:10:20.480 --> 00:10:23.240 wondered if they could carry over the momentum winning that 204 00:10:23.279 --> 00:10:26.519 game against San Antonio coming back down twenty six into 205 00:10:26.559 --> 00:10:32.399 tonight's ballgame. They did it worked. It wasn't perfect. They 206 00:10:32.399 --> 00:10:36.200 were down after the first quarter, but that third quarter 207 00:10:36.919 --> 00:10:39.960 they won it thirty three to seventeen, and in that 208 00:10:40.000 --> 00:10:45.120 third quarter Philly went oh of eight from three. The 209 00:10:45.159 --> 00:10:48.600 Clippers started cooking. Paul George had ten plus points in 210 00:10:48.639 --> 00:10:51.000 that third quarter. Didn't have a great game, and the 211 00:10:51.039 --> 00:10:54.440 Clippers still ran away with this one. It should be. 212 00:10:54.480 --> 00:10:58.919 James Harden had a great third quarter, even though he 213 00:10:58.960 --> 00:11:01.360 was just five or fifteen, one of six from three, 214 00:11:03.480 --> 00:11:07.080 just eighteen points, six assists to six turnovers, had a 215 00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:12.679 really bad one late, even with him looking tired. Here 216 00:11:12.879 --> 00:11:16.080 was James Harden in the third to the free throw line. 217 00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:17.759 He goes up a left hand off for one, knowing 218 00:11:17.799 --> 00:11:20.600 in Harden gets a buncket. Is first to the half 219 00:11:20.679 --> 00:11:22.200 to the free throw line. He goes up a left 220 00:11:22.200 --> 00:11:24.879 hand off for one doing in harding gets a buncket, 221 00:11:24.960 --> 00:11:26.039 is first to the half. 222 00:11:26.279 --> 00:11:28.080 Harden sounthrings into the front door. 223 00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:30.120 There's the left hand of the far wing. Next he 224 00:11:30.200 --> 00:11:32.919 comes to close hard and step back three hands it. 225 00:11:34.759 --> 00:11:38.200 James Harden had five points at the half he left 226 00:11:38.240 --> 00:11:41.399 the third quarter was seventeen. He had twelve points in 227 00:11:41.440 --> 00:11:44.279 that third quarter and really made a push the second 228 00:11:44.360 --> 00:11:47.840 half of the third. Clippers needed it. They led eighty 229 00:11:47.919 --> 00:11:51.120 four to sixty eight heading into the fourth, and they 230 00:11:51.159 --> 00:11:57.519 really never looked back. Timely shots and timely threes like these. 231 00:11:58.240 --> 00:11:59.080 The three's left the. 232 00:11:59.039 --> 00:12:02.879 Right norm step to right wing, three dampu X kicks 233 00:12:02.879 --> 00:12:06.440 it coffee left corner, three ferries it. What a dime 234 00:12:06.519 --> 00:12:09.480 from Norm as he sets up a mere coffee from 235 00:12:09.480 --> 00:12:13.320 that corner, finds coffee a left corner. Three thereri'es it 236 00:12:13.440 --> 00:12:16.879 a here coffee all chords, left corner of Norm. Pump 237 00:12:16.919 --> 00:12:22.320 fakes side step three ball bottoms. Norman Pale stairs to 238 00:12:22.399 --> 00:12:28.159 the bench of Philadelphia. 239 00:12:25.879 --> 00:12:32.480 Norman Palell sending a message. He can do this. He 240 00:12:32.559 --> 00:12:34.840 can be a consistent starter in this league for a 241 00:12:34.840 --> 00:12:38.080 winning ball club. That's what he's out to prove. Right 242 00:12:38.120 --> 00:12:41.960 now he's doing it. Clippers win one, ten to ninety 243 00:12:41.960 --> 00:12:44.559 eight over Paul George and the Philadelphia seventy six ers. 244 00:12:44.559 --> 00:12:46.879 Here and into a dome, quick time out. We'll come back. 245 00:12:46.960 --> 00:12:49.320 Remember we got Clippers talk coming up on a five 246 00:12:49.399 --> 00:12:51.240 seventy LA Sports. If you want to get on early 247 00:12:51.559 --> 00:12:55.720 eight sixty six nine eight seven two, five seventy is 248 00:12:55.759 --> 00:12:59.919 the phone number. I'm Adam Oslin, live from into a dome. 249 00:13:00.120 --> 00:13:04.679 After another great victory by this Clippers squad, can they 250 00:13:04.679 --> 00:13:07.000 turn it into a winning streak? Make it three in 251 00:13:07.039 --> 00:13:09.679 a row? We'll talk about that. They'll be in Sacktown 252 00:13:09.720 --> 00:13:12.679 on Friday. You're listening to Los Angeles Clippers Audio. 253 00:13:12.440 --> 00:13:13.919 Network throws it up. 254 00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:17.639 The window finishes in the fowl Los Angeles Slipper Nation. 255 00:13:17.879 --> 00:13:21.240 This is your home for the LA Clippers. LA Clippers, 256 00:13:21.480 --> 00:13:23.799 take us with you on the Ihearts radio app. 257 00:13:24.279 --> 00:13:28.440 Clippers win one, ten to ninety eight over Paul George 258 00:13:28.519 --> 00:13:31.679 and the Philadelphia seventy six ers. They send them home 259 00:13:31.799 --> 00:13:34.879 packing from home. I don't know where they're going next, 260 00:13:34.960 --> 00:13:37.799 but they're leaving the arena with the loss. They are 261 00:13:37.919 --> 00:13:41.120 one in six on the season. Clippers improved a four 262 00:13:41.159 --> 00:13:44.240 and four. Clippers shot the free throw as well. Sixteen 263 00:13:44.360 --> 00:13:49.639 of nineteen Clippers had five players in double figures scoring wise, 264 00:13:49.960 --> 00:13:53.000 seven players with two plus assists. That's what I'm talking about. 265 00:13:53.720 --> 00:13:57.000 Twenty seven assists on forty one made shots is a 266 00:13:57.120 --> 00:14:04.440 very high assist percentage. This was special. I love this performance, 267 00:14:04.480 --> 00:14:07.120 even with the amount of turnovers and some sloppy play 268 00:14:07.200 --> 00:14:10.720 late by the young guys. Look, Paul George played well 269 00:14:11.080 --> 00:14:15.039 seven to nine shooting, had a team high or tied 270 00:14:15.080 --> 00:14:17.879 a team high of eighteen points for Philly. But they're 271 00:14:17.879 --> 00:14:22.480 one in six. Only twelve teams have made the playoffs 272 00:14:23.159 --> 00:14:28.240 since the NBA ABA merger after starting one for six, 273 00:14:28.440 --> 00:14:33.200 one and six Since nineteen seventy six, teams that start 274 00:14:33.240 --> 00:14:37.759 off the season one and six. Only twelve teams since 275 00:14:37.840 --> 00:14:41.519 nineteen seventy six have made the playoffs. I think Philly 276 00:14:41.559 --> 00:14:43.759 still will. I still think they have a great chance 277 00:14:43.799 --> 00:14:46.120 to be a top five team in the East. Once 278 00:14:46.200 --> 00:14:50.159 Embiid comes back. They might win at a seven hundred 279 00:14:50.159 --> 00:14:53.840 win percentage. They can turn this around quickly, and not 280 00:14:53.919 --> 00:14:56.639 all these teams had an opportunity to make it through 281 00:14:56.639 --> 00:14:58.799 the play and since it goes back to nineteen seventy six, 282 00:14:58.840 --> 00:15:01.399 but we aren't concerned about out them. It's about the 283 00:15:01.440 --> 00:15:03.720 Clippers and if they can get above five hundred with 284 00:15:03.720 --> 00:15:07.440 the victory Friday night up in Sacramento, taking on the Kings, 285 00:15:07.480 --> 00:15:11.279 a package of rival, a quality opponent on the road 286 00:15:11.320 --> 00:15:14.559 where they are too and zero so far on the road, 287 00:15:15.120 --> 00:15:17.440 Clippers improved a four and four. They win one, ten 288 00:15:17.519 --> 00:15:20.600 to ninety eight here into a dome at home, domes 289 00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:24.320 home over Paul George and the Philadelphia seventy six ers 290 00:15:25.279 --> 00:15:29.519 didn't look like any B team tonight, Lakers lost, Clippers won, 291 00:15:29.759 --> 00:15:33.919 Paul George's team lost because the Clippers won. Hmmm, more 292 00:15:33.960 --> 00:15:36.559 on that coming up on Clippers Talk. We'll get petty 293 00:15:36.600 --> 00:15:39.559 with it. Eight six six nine seven two five seventy 294 00:15:39.960 --> 00:15:41.919 is the phone number. Outside of Los Angeles. We were 295 00:15:42.000 --> 00:15:45.519 leaving you until Friday night.

Wow, 325 00:17:12.359 --> 00:17:14.160 we have a moment though. Let's pause ten seconds for 326 00:17:14.240 --> 00:17:17.359 station identification here on the Los Angeles Clippers Audio Network, 327 00:17:17.880 --> 00:17:18.880 this is. 328 00:17:18.920 --> 00:17:23.079 LA Clippers Basketball AM five to seventy KLAC Los Angeles, 329 00:17:23.279 --> 00:17:28.160 ninety eight seven KYSR HD two Los Angeles, and iHeartRadio station. 330 00:17:28.279 --> 00:17:30.920 Eight six six ninety seven two five seventy eight sixty 331 00:17:30.920 --> 00:17:33.519 six ninety seven two five seventy is the phone number 332 00:17:33.559 --> 00:17:36.799 if you would like to get on people in the 333 00:17:36.920 --> 00:17:39.839 chat at Clippers Talk on the YouTube side saying I 334 00:17:39.880 --> 00:17:42.160 love that play when dun stole it from Paul George, 335 00:17:42.400 --> 00:17:45.680 even though Paul George hit a couple of ridiculous fadeaways 336 00:17:45.759 --> 00:17:48.400 to start the fourth quarter on Chris Don and one 337 00:17:48.440 --> 00:17:50.839 of them also with a double team with Niko Batoom there, 338 00:17:52.160 --> 00:17:54.599 even though he went seven to nine from the floor. 339 00:17:55.440 --> 00:18:01.200 He only had eighteen points, he had four turnovers. I 340 00:18:01.200 --> 00:18:04.799 thought he was okay. I thought I'd give it a B. 341 00:18:05.920 --> 00:18:08.759 That's my grade. A be for Paul George in this one, 342 00:18:09.319 --> 00:18:12.640 as in, you gotta be better against this Clippers team 343 00:18:12.759 --> 00:18:15.759 and this defense that just held the Philadelphia seventy six 344 00:18:15.839 --> 00:18:22.079 ers to ninety eight points. So Clipper Nation, you won 345 00:18:22.119 --> 00:18:24.319 the individual battle and you won the war winning the 346 00:18:24.359 --> 00:18:28.200 ballgame individual battle against Paul George. I knew this one 347 00:18:28.240 --> 00:18:32.440 meant a lot to you. And there was a tribute 348 00:18:32.480 --> 00:18:34.839 video early on. I heard a couple of booze, but 349 00:18:35.039 --> 00:18:38.680 mostly cheers, I would say during that, but every time 350 00:18:38.799 --> 00:18:43.200 Paul George touched the basketball, the wall was loud. It 351 00:18:43.359 --> 00:18:51.240 stood out. It was impressive. Now the signage, I don't know. 352 00:18:51.359 --> 00:18:55.559 Some might think it's out of pocket. I'm interested to 353 00:18:55.640 --> 00:19:00.400 hear if someone asked Paul George postgame about people holding 354 00:19:00.480 --> 00:19:05.200 up five huge poster boards that said peachee, think before 355 00:19:05.240 --> 00:19:06.160 you speak. 356 00:19:07.720 --> 00:19:07.960 Whoo. 357 00:19:09.240 --> 00:19:15.319 That is cold blooded. That is what happens, though, when 358 00:19:15.359 --> 00:19:19.200 you call your former team the B team, when you 359 00:19:19.240 --> 00:19:21.920 take shots at the organization, say you were stabbed in 360 00:19:21.960 --> 00:19:25.759 the back. I don't think he was ever stabbed in 361 00:19:25.799 --> 00:19:28.160 the back. I think they offered him one hundred and 362 00:19:28.160 --> 00:19:31.359 fifty million dollars and he didn't take it because he 363 00:19:31.400 --> 00:19:34.680 felt jilted that they offered it to Kawhi first and 364 00:19:34.759 --> 00:19:38.799 he did take it. If that's the case, Philly was 365 00:19:38.839 --> 00:19:41.359 always offering the max. He knew it was out there. 366 00:19:43.279 --> 00:19:46.000 He wonted no trade clause. That wasn't gonna happen either. 367 00:19:47.279 --> 00:19:50.839 They did not do him dirty. They treated him well. 368 00:19:51.160 --> 00:19:53.160 He had that performance in the bubble and they paid 369 00:19:53.240 --> 00:19:59.400 him right afterwards handsomely. Even after the performance against Dallas 370 00:19:59.400 --> 00:20:01.720 and Derek Jones j in the first round this past season, 371 00:20:02.319 --> 00:20:05.680 they still were offering the one fifty. I don't think 372 00:20:05.680 --> 00:20:08.039 there's anyone in a position to complain there if I'm 373 00:20:08.039 --> 00:20:13.160 in Paul George's camp. Yet it happened, So you get 374 00:20:13.160 --> 00:20:16.279 it out of your system and there will come a 375 00:20:16.319 --> 00:20:19.119 time where you're gonna look back at this and say, hey, 376 00:20:19.359 --> 00:20:22.359 he was an all time great Clipper, top five clipper ever. 377 00:20:22.839 --> 00:20:24.880 Helped them get to the Western Conference Finals for the 378 00:20:24.880 --> 00:20:29.160 first time tonight. Though I get the energy everybody was 379 00:20:29.200 --> 00:20:33.200 coming with, I have mixed feelings. I ended up seeing 380 00:20:33.200 --> 00:20:37.200 the tribute video early as I was here, you know, 381 00:20:37.240 --> 00:20:39.880 three hours before the game, and I got a little 382 00:20:39.920 --> 00:20:43.640 bit emotional just thinking of that run, thinking of Paul 383 00:20:43.680 --> 00:20:47.519 George stepping up in Game five against Utah and what 384 00:20:47.599 --> 00:20:50.480 he was able to do without Kawhi Leonard when everybody 385 00:20:50.480 --> 00:20:52.400 thought he was going to fail. Coming off of what 386 00:20:52.480 --> 00:20:58.880 happened in the Bubble, the Bubble Bubble La Pizza I 387 00:20:59.759 --> 00:21:06.160 did it made me nostalgic. I was thinking about Noah 388 00:21:06.200 --> 00:21:11.960 eaglesum big brother, Jake Warner. He's still a part of 389 00:21:11.960 --> 00:21:14.559 the TM squad here with the Clippers. That was a 390 00:21:14.599 --> 00:21:19.279 special run Reggie Jackson's on Philly. So all this stuff 391 00:21:19.759 --> 00:21:24.240 is creating some conflicting thoughts and emotions tonight. But in 392 00:21:24.319 --> 00:21:27.839 the end, all I care about is getting that W 393 00:21:28.720 --> 00:21:32.640 and the Clippers being able to hold Paul George down 394 00:21:32.720 --> 00:21:38.160 enough four turnovers, and there were some bad ones, a 395 00:21:38.240 --> 00:21:40.519 mere Coffee hitting a big three pointer in the far 396 00:21:40.640 --> 00:21:44.519 side corner on PG. Thirteen in the fourth quarter as 397 00:21:44.559 --> 00:21:48.200 he was cheating defensively, they caught him. And how about 398 00:21:48.200 --> 00:21:52.240 the guy who's taking over and picking up the slack 399 00:21:53.200 --> 00:22:00.839 without Paul George, Norman Storman Powell, Are you kidding me? 400 00:22:02.279 --> 00:22:04.880 Look at the three point shooting the last two games, 401 00:22:04.920 --> 00:22:08.119
