WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.280 --> 00:00:01.280 The LA Clippers. 2 00:00:02.279 --> 00:00:05.679 The game is ended, gather around boys, time to recap. 3 00:00:05.879 --> 00:00:08.759 But the postgame coverage is just getting started. 4 00:00:08.839 --> 00:00:10.199 The successes the failure. 5 00:00:10.480 --> 00:00:14.519 Let's discuss this is Clippers locker Road breaking down today's 6 00:00:14.519 --> 00:00:17.440 action with the pre and postgame voice of the Clippers. 7 00:00:18.199 --> 00:00:19.679 Here's that a moss led. 8 00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:25.920 Clippers get beat again in the fourth quarter. Or okay, 9 00:00:26.039 --> 00:00:27.839 see you went to work and the Clippers didn't have 10 00:00:27.839 --> 00:00:30.399 an answer. They lose one, five to ninety two here 11 00:00:30.440 --> 00:00:32.640 at into a dome, but they start off here at 12 00:00:32.640 --> 00:00:35.880 this arena, zho to four. Welcome into your postgame show. 13 00:00:36.840 --> 00:00:39.920 We got Clippers Dot coming up on a five seventy 14 00:00:40.079 --> 00:00:41.840 LA Sports if you want to get on early eight 15 00:00:41.840 --> 00:00:45.039 sixty six, nine seventy. But while we have a moment, 16 00:00:45.640 --> 00:00:48.799 let's pause ten seconds for station identification here on Los 17 00:00:48.799 --> 00:00:53.280 Angeles Clippers Audio Network, and we'll wait on that and 18 00:00:53.439 --> 00:00:56.439 keep it right here. Into it dome, Carlos, get right 19 00:00:56.439 --> 00:01:00.640 into it. Clippers lose a ballgame where once again they 20 00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:03.399 led by double digits. They've led by double digits, I 21 00:01:03.439 --> 00:01:05.359 believe in every game so far this season, yet they 22 00:01:05.359 --> 00:01:08.560 are two and four. We talked about it early in 23 00:01:08.599 --> 00:01:11.920 the fourth quarter can't turn the ball over. They turned 24 00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:15.599 it over and bunches once again, and those miscues continue 25 00:01:15.599 --> 00:01:17.599 to add up and hurt them by the end of 26 00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:17.920 the game. 27 00:01:18.719 --> 00:01:21.599 Yeah, out of the Clippers seven turnovers in that fourth quarter. 28 00:01:21.760 --> 00:01:25.840 Something you emphasized going into that quarter. The Clippers had 29 00:01:25.840 --> 00:01:27.959 a stretch of seven and a half minutes in which 30 00:01:27.959 --> 00:01:30.719 they scored four points from the end of the third 31 00:01:30.760 --> 00:01:33.280 to the start of the fourth. A huge dry spell. 32 00:01:33.319 --> 00:01:35.319 And that's just becoming a theme for this team. That 33 00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:38.680 is somehow going to be half the change. I'm sure 34 00:01:38.840 --> 00:01:42.359 Adam Tyleru is looking at everything, watching tape late, just 35 00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:45.760 trying to figure out some reason, some change. Remember, this 36 00:01:45.799 --> 00:01:48.040 is a team that lost six in a row last 37 00:01:48.159 --> 00:01:50.599 year to start the season. It was about this time 38 00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:54.239 that they fell in those six straight games. Everyone panic. 39 00:01:54.280 --> 00:01:56.799 The Clippers figured it out and by December they went 40 00:01:56.879 --> 00:01:59.519 twenty five and six. So for the Clipper fans that 41 00:01:59.519 --> 00:02:02.000 are hitting the red button, that are calling for people 42 00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:05.040 to blow it up, be patient, be patient. This team 43 00:02:05.120 --> 00:02:07.840 hit rock bottom last year and then they became the 44 00:02:07.840 --> 00:02:10.240 best team in the league in the middle of January. 45 00:02:11.000 --> 00:02:13.919 I believe they can make similar changes this season, but 46 00:02:14.039 --> 00:02:16.560 this is a tough one and bad habits are forming 47 00:02:16.599 --> 00:02:18.840 a little bit. So we'll see if the Clippers are 48 00:02:18.879 --> 00:02:22.680 able to make that change that ignites them late in games. 49 00:02:22.680 --> 00:02:24.919 Because you're right, they played great first halfs for the 50 00:02:24.960 --> 00:02:27.960 second straight game, great first half, but it is that 51 00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:31.520 fourth quarter, specifically the start of the third and then 52 00:02:31.560 --> 00:02:33.800 the start of the fourth, where things kind of crumble 53 00:02:33.840 --> 00:02:36.080 for this Clippers team. You can't have that be a 54 00:02:36.120 --> 00:02:38.759 theme this season. Somebody's got to step up, either off 55 00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:40.919 the bench or they got to make a lineup change 56 00:02:40.960 --> 00:02:43.479 to give that second unit more firepower down the. 57 00:02:43.439 --> 00:02:45.280 Stretch from what I've seen, and I talked about it 58 00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:47.680 a little bit after they lost to Phoenix Thursday night, 59 00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:52.520 But when the game gets close down the stretch and 60 00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:55.560 you get to the second half, that's when teams in 61 00:02:55.599 --> 00:02:58.520 the regular season start giving maximum effort, and that's when 62 00:02:58.560 --> 00:03:00.840 you start to see the separation and talent and the 63 00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:03.560 Clippers being at that talent disparity against teams like the 64 00:03:03.560 --> 00:03:06.520 Phoenix Suns and the OKC Thunder and teams pull away 65 00:03:06.520 --> 00:03:08.000 from them, and the Clippers at one point in the 66 00:03:08.000 --> 00:03:11.400 fourth quarter had eight points to those seven turnovers. I 67 00:03:11.439 --> 00:03:13.840 believe that was before Coach Lou waved the white flag 68 00:03:13.919 --> 00:03:16.360 with over four minutes left to bring in the reserves 69 00:03:16.360 --> 00:03:18.360 and maybe just to try to get a spark from 70 00:03:18.360 --> 00:03:21.080 those guys, you know, they were down sixteen. I don't know. 71 00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:23.159 It might have been interesting for a second after Bones 72 00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:25.280 Highland knock down that three pointer. I at least like 73 00:03:25.319 --> 00:03:28.599 the fight. But this team right now is short of 74 00:03:28.680 --> 00:03:32.360 shooters and shot creators and obviously are missing their number 75 00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:35.000 one player in Kawhi Leonard, and it just makes everything 76 00:03:35.039 --> 00:03:36.400 else really difficult right now. 77 00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:38.680 In the offensive end, it does, and this Clipper team 78 00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:41.159 sometimes just looks like they're winning for somebody else to 79 00:03:41.159 --> 00:03:43.319 make a shot at him, when as a matter of fact, 80 00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:45.080 somebody's got to be aggressive. They got to get to 81 00:03:45.080 --> 00:03:47.240 the rim. I love the way Terrence Man played early. 82 00:03:47.639 --> 00:03:50.240 Want him to continue to be aggressive for this Clipper team. 83 00:03:51.039 --> 00:03:53.400 Norman Powell I thought was great early on, kind of 84 00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:57.000 close that game strong. James Harden's got tired legs. I mean, 85 00:03:57.039 --> 00:04:00.479 there's no doubt about it. Thirteen shots today, seven. He's 86 00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:03.840 just had to carry so much on his shoulders through 87 00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:06.759 the first six games of the season, and I think 88 00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:08.879 that usage rate is starting to creep up. The Clippers 89 00:04:08.879 --> 00:04:11.159 are going to try to find a healthy medium for 90 00:04:11.240 --> 00:04:15.479 him somehow in this season. But there just has to 91 00:04:15.520 --> 00:04:17.839 be some sort of bolt off the bench for this 92 00:04:17.839 --> 00:04:20.319 Clipper team, and maybe that's a Bones Highland, a Jordan 93 00:04:20.360 --> 00:04:22.920 Miller getting some minutes. We saw Bones Highland with a 94 00:04:22.959 --> 00:04:25.079 Cook three a Steal. I thought he played really, really 95 00:04:25.120 --> 00:04:27.959 well in those final four minutes stood out among those 96 00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:31.120 three guys who had not played so far. So it's 97 00:04:31.160 --> 00:04:34.480 great to see him be effective. The Clippers, though, it's 98 00:04:34.519 --> 00:04:36.600 time to look at the drawing board. I think a 99 00:04:36.600 --> 00:04:39.639 little bit again. They're not. Their seasons not over. They 100 00:04:39.680 --> 00:04:42.199 struggled for four games. This isn't the end of the world. 101 00:04:42.680 --> 00:04:45.040 But I think for the Clippers in ty Lou, they're 102 00:04:45.079 --> 00:04:47.319 always going to look for places to get an advantage, 103 00:04:47.399 --> 00:04:49.079 and I'm sure the team is gonna look at that 104 00:04:49.160 --> 00:04:51.519 before san Antonio comes in here on Monday. 105 00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:53.839 Yeah, I just think you're two and four. While coach 106 00:04:53.959 --> 00:04:56.600 Lou has talked about a ten game sample, guys aren't 107 00:04:56.600 --> 00:04:59.399 getting it done right now, and at some point you 108 00:04:59.480 --> 00:05:02.480 can't get too far behind. In the Western Conference. It's 109 00:05:02.519 --> 00:05:06.720 only game six. They still have what seventy six games. 110 00:05:06.519 --> 00:05:07.480 Left in the season. 111 00:05:07.560 --> 00:05:08.399 That's the games. 112 00:05:08.519 --> 00:05:11.040 But in the West, you don't want to fall too 113 00:05:11.120 --> 00:05:13.720 far down the standings to where you get Kawhi Leonard back. 114 00:05:13.759 --> 00:05:16.160 Put your ten games under five hundred, and you've dug 115 00:05:16.199 --> 00:05:18.519 yourself so much of a hole. So are there guys 116 00:05:18.600 --> 00:05:21.519 internally that can help this team right away? We saw 117 00:05:21.560 --> 00:05:23.959 Bones Highland late knock down a three pointer. We saw 118 00:05:24.040 --> 00:05:26.480 Jordan Miller get to the free throw line right away 119 00:05:26.519 --> 00:05:29.000 on SGA. That's what he's been doing throughout the preseason, 120 00:05:29.079 --> 00:05:32.600 G League and Summer League. So can one of those 121 00:05:32.639 --> 00:05:36.120 guys ignite this team in the second unit because they 122 00:05:36.160 --> 00:05:39.079 need more from a ball handling aspect, they need more 123 00:05:39.120 --> 00:05:41.519 from a shot creation aspect. We knew that coming into 124 00:05:41.560 --> 00:05:45.120 the season, and I just wonder if coach lou pulls 125 00:05:45.160 --> 00:05:47.639 the trigger on bringing in one of these younger guys 126 00:05:47.639 --> 00:05:50.120 and giving them a shot right now, because there are 127 00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:51.600 already two games under five hundred. 128 00:05:51.600 --> 00:05:53.480 I think back to last year Adam and the Clippers 129 00:05:53.480 --> 00:05:56.800 in November when they were struggling. We saw Kobe Brown 130 00:05:56.839 --> 00:05:59.360 get about a twelve game shot. He played in fifteen 131 00:05:59.399 --> 00:06:02.480 of sixteen games for this Clipper team. So Tyler has 132 00:06:02.480 --> 00:06:05.279 been known to give guys an opportunity. I think that's 133 00:06:05.279 --> 00:06:06.920 one thing we know about him. He talks about the 134 00:06:06.920 --> 00:06:10.600 ten games sample size. He will give people a chance, 135 00:06:10.959 --> 00:06:13.839 and right now, for this Clipper team, how do one 136 00:06:13.879 --> 00:06:16.560 of those guys take take advantage of those chances? I 137 00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:21.319 think also something to look at right now browsing the internet, 138 00:06:21.360 --> 00:06:23.800 I oh, you talk about trade machine trades a lot 139 00:06:24.360 --> 00:06:28.079 only Clipper stock, unfortunately, but the Indiana Pacers are down 140 00:06:28.120 --> 00:06:30.680 to big men, and the Clippers do have PJ. Tucker 141 00:06:31.199 --> 00:06:34.720 on their sideline that they've been public about. His agent 142 00:06:34.800 --> 00:06:37.600 is negotiating or trying to negotiate trades for the team. 143 00:06:37.839 --> 00:06:40.800 Do the Clippers make a move like that. I don't know, 144 00:06:40.879 --> 00:06:43.480 but it doesn't seem like they're that desperate. But I 145 00:06:43.519 --> 00:06:45.959 think we're so early in the season that we can't 146 00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:48.040 scamp this Clipper team for this is how it's going 147 00:06:48.120 --> 00:06:50.560 to be for the next seventy six games of the year. 148 00:06:50.800 --> 00:06:53.639 There's gonna be opportunities for them to grow. These close 149 00:06:53.720 --> 00:06:56.240 games are going to mean something, and this coaching staff 150 00:06:56.279 --> 00:06:58.600 is going to learn more about their personnel. It's about 151 00:06:58.720 --> 00:07:01.319 maximizing that personnel, and I think that's something that I'm 152 00:07:01.319 --> 00:07:04.000 fully confident Tyler and his staff can do as they 153 00:07:04.040 --> 00:07:06.120 continue to get more film on their group. 154 00:07:06.240 --> 00:07:08.959 Yeah, and I thought there were still some bright spots tonight, 155 00:07:09.000 --> 00:07:10.680 even in a loss like this one oh five to 156 00:07:10.759 --> 00:07:13.680 ninety two to ok see. Norm Powell was great once again. 157 00:07:13.720 --> 00:07:15.959 He had twenty four points in his thirty two minutes 158 00:07:15.959 --> 00:07:20.160 on just fourteen shot attempts. But this Clippers team seventeen 159 00:07:20.240 --> 00:07:22.319 of twenty six from the free throw line is quite 160 00:07:22.360 --> 00:07:25.800 frankly inexcusable. When your margin for air is that slam 161 00:07:26.160 --> 00:07:28.639 and you end up missing that many free throws plus 162 00:07:28.720 --> 00:07:31.839 twenty turnovers, you're just shooting yourself in the foot over 163 00:07:31.920 --> 00:07:35.120 and over again and losing the possession battle. Where tonight 164 00:07:35.160 --> 00:07:38.000 they ended up getting up just seventy nine shots and 165 00:07:38.040 --> 00:07:39.759 scored ninety two points, and. 166 00:07:40.040 --> 00:07:43.560 They shot twenty five shots in the first quarter, and 167 00:07:43.560 --> 00:07:46.439 they were on pace to shoot one hundred and just 168 00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:49.000 kind of let it go down the stretcher. I got 169 00:07:49.040 --> 00:07:51.839 that first quarter at him, where they shot sixteen threes. 170 00:07:51.879 --> 00:07:54.560 Maybe a blueprint for this offense and how they can play. 171 00:07:54.680 --> 00:07:57.279 If you're gonna play percentages, you shoot a lot of threes. 172 00:07:57.279 --> 00:07:59.519 Look at the Boston Celtics living and dying by the threes. 173 00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:02.120 The Clippers have good three point shooters. Chris Dunn and 174 00:08:02.160 --> 00:08:05.720 Derek Jones Junior have proved through six games that they 175 00:08:05.720 --> 00:08:08.040 are not the three point shooters of the past. They've 176 00:08:08.040 --> 00:08:11.079 been much better on that end, and so we'll see 177 00:08:11.079 --> 00:08:13.319 if the Clippers can figure out if there's a way 178 00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:15.639 to get those guys more involved from outside of the arc. 179 00:08:16.360 --> 00:08:18.759 There's a lot that's going to be changed before the 180 00:08:18.879 --> 00:08:21.879 end of this homestand I think as we continue to 181 00:08:21.879 --> 00:08:24.720 get deep into November, the Clippers have plenty of opportunities 182 00:08:24.839 --> 00:08:27.759 to mix things up. Today is a tough one, but 183 00:08:27.839 --> 00:08:30.079 I think there's room to grow for this Clipper team, Adam, 184 00:08:30.120 --> 00:08:32.559 and like you said, there's a lot of things that 185 00:08:32.559 --> 00:08:34.440 they can improve on that they can control. I mean, 186 00:08:34.480 --> 00:08:36.480 this is not a team that's getting blown out every night, 187 00:08:36.679 --> 00:08:39.759 that's getting out hustled. This is not a team that's 188 00:08:39.919 --> 00:08:43.919 getting out talented. This is a team that has room 189 00:08:44.000 --> 00:08:47.879 to grow within themselves. That's the most encouraging part. There 190 00:08:47.960 --> 00:08:50.399 is opportunity for growth. It's not like they've hit a 191 00:08:50.440 --> 00:08:52.159 ceiling and this is how it's going to be for 192 00:08:52.159 --> 00:08:53.039 seventy six games. 193 00:08:53.080 --> 00:08:55.720 No, and the Calvary could be on the way Monday. 194 00:08:55.799 --> 00:08:58.600 We'll see if there's a shakeup to the second unit, 195 00:08:58.679 --> 00:09:01.240 if we see Jordan Miller, if we sue Bones Highland, 196 00:09:01.279 --> 00:09:03.919 as we did late in this fourth quarter, when Coach 197 00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:07.360 flu had quite frankly seen enough. The Clippers fall one 198 00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:09.360 oh five to ninety two at home here at into 199 00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:11.759 a dome to the thunder.

We'll see if it comes. Monday night, 207 00:09:34.919 --> 00:09:38.360 they're taken on a San Antonio Spurs team that has 208 00:09:38.399 --> 00:09:41.360 one of the most intriguing and talented players in the 209 00:09:41.480 --> 00:09:46.440 universe in wemby Victor wembin Yama.

I think I found the turning point 219 00:10:09.399 --> 00:10:11.440 in this one. We'll talk about it next. Right here 220 00:10:11.840 --> 00:10:14.279 on your Los Angeles Clippers Audio Network, the. 221 00:10:15.759 --> 00:10:17.639 Clippers. 222 00:10:16.960 --> 00:10:21.559 You're listening to LA Clippers Basketball.

Here at 225 00:10:26.759 --> 00:10:28.960 Into It Dome, Welcome back in. This is the official 226 00:10:29.000 --> 00:10:31.799 postgame show of your Los Angeles Clippers. It's Clippers locker Room. 227 00:10:31.840 --> 00:10:33.679 Still to come. We got Clippers Talk coming up on 228 00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:37.279 a five to seventy LA Sports after a game or 229 00:10:37.320 --> 00:10:40.879 the Clippers. Who So, they were shooting fifty one percent 230 00:10:42.519 --> 00:10:45.399 in the first half, they ended up at forty percent. 231 00:10:47.480 --> 00:10:49.559 Pretty sure that means they shut under thirty percent in 232 00:10:49.600 --> 00:10:53.080 the second half. It was tough to watch. Twenty one 233 00:10:53.080 --> 00:10:55.320 points on the third quarter, and by the time they 234 00:10:55.320 --> 00:10:57.440 had waved the white flag, they only had eight points 235 00:10:57.440 --> 00:11:01.320 on the fourth. You know, by the time coach Lou 236 00:11:01.399 --> 00:11:06.480 gave the young guys an opportunity at around the four 237 00:11:06.600 --> 00:11:12.720 minute mark. Well, the game was out of reach. And 238 00:11:12.759 --> 00:11:17.240 the Clippers simply have not been good enough, consistently enough 239 00:11:17.279 --> 00:11:20.320 on the offensive end. Whatsoever. They have a good first 240 00:11:20.320 --> 00:11:22.360 half or a good first quarter like they did tonight, 241 00:11:22.399 --> 00:11:25.600 outscoring OKACE twenty eight to nineteen, but they gave up 242 00:11:25.639 --> 00:11:27.840 a thirty four point quarter to OKAC in the second 243 00:11:27.919 --> 00:11:30.720 quarter and it's a four point game of the half. 244 00:11:32.120 --> 00:11:34.600 The Clippers can't put it all together. They can't string 245 00:11:34.679 --> 00:11:38.440 together enough runs, and as good as their defense is 246 00:11:38.559 --> 00:11:42.000 at times that can keep them in games. The Clippers 247 00:11:42.039 --> 00:11:45.519 offense is keeping the opposition in games because they go 248 00:11:45.559 --> 00:11:50.039 through deep, deep scoring routs, something many of us were 249 00:11:50.080 --> 00:11:54.840 prepared for heading into this season. The turnovers, though, are 250 00:11:54.840 --> 00:11:57.440 getting down right frustrating. And I'm sure Coach Lee will 251 00:11:57.480 --> 00:11:59.360 talk about a post game. We'll hear from him. We'll 252 00:11:59.360 --> 00:12:02.120 take a quick time Mount will come back more postgame 253 00:12:02.639 --> 00:12:05.840 right here on the Los Angeles Clippers Audio Network. 254 00:12:05.879 --> 00:12:09.360 The Clippers. 255 00:12:09.399 --> 00:12:13.279 You're listening to LA Clippers Basketball. Take us with you 256 00:12:13.320 --> 00:12:15.960 wherever you are on the iHeartRadio app. 257 00:12:16.039 --> 00:12:18.279 Clippers lose one O five to ninety two to the 258 00:12:18.320 --> 00:12:22.919 OKC Thunder at home It is frustrating. The Clippers got 259 00:12:22.919 --> 00:12:26.000 outscored twenty four to fourteen in the fourth quarter. Clippers 260 00:12:26.039 --> 00:12:28.279 did have twenty three assists on thirty two made field goals, 261 00:12:28.279 --> 00:12:32.080 but twenty turnovers compared to OKC with twenty five assists 262 00:12:32.159 --> 00:12:38.360 and twelve turnovers. Harden was your leading rebounder at thirteen, 263 00:12:38.600 --> 00:12:41.639 Zoo had twelve. Zoo had a bad game and the 264 00:12:41.639 --> 00:12:43.399 Clippers had a bad game trying to get him the 265 00:12:43.399 --> 00:12:46.480 basketball when he had mismatches in the first half, when 266 00:12:46.600 --> 00:12:49.519 OKAC went small and pulled chet and if eat the 267 00:12:49.559 --> 00:12:51.799 Zoo bosses down there, and they couldn't get him the 268 00:12:51.840 --> 00:12:55.440 basketball in his spots. Kevin Porter Junior through two turnovers 269 00:12:55.639 --> 00:12:58.840 on post entry passes. So a lot of blame to 270 00:12:58.840 --> 00:13:02.759 go around. It's never person, It's never just the head coach, 271 00:13:02.919 --> 00:13:05.039 as some people would like to dumb it down to. 272 00:13:06.360 --> 00:13:08.279 We're not gonna do that here. Coming up next, we 273 00:13:08.320 --> 00:13:10.759 got Clippers talk on AM five to seventy LA Sports 274 00:13:10.799 --> 00:13:13.039 eight sixty six nine eight seven two five seventy eight 275 00:13:13.080 --> 00:13:15.639 six six ninety eight seven two five seventy outside of 276 00:13:15.679 --> 00:13:17.799 Los Angeles. We are leaving you until Monday night. Back 277 00:13:17.840 --> 00:13:19.919 here at into a Dome tip time at seven thirty 278 00:13:19.919 --> 00:13:21.720 Clippers and Spurs. We'll have a pregame show at six 279 00:13:21.840 --> 00:13:25.240 thirty in LA. We got Clippers Talk coming up next. 280 00:13:25.440 --> 00:13:28.879 The Lay Clippers. 281 00:13:28.919 --> 00:13:32.799 You're listening to LA Clippers Basketball. Take us with you 282 00:13:32.879 --> 00:13:35.559 wherever you are on the iHeartRadio app. 283 00:13:35.840 --> 00:13:38.000 So one more break here and then we'll get to 284 00:13:38.000 --> 00:13:41.960 Clippers Talk. Welcome back in. I'm adam Ousland. I'll throw 285 00:13:42.000 --> 00:13:43.960 out the number again, eight sixty six nine eight seven 286 00:13:44.000 --> 00:13:46.399 two five seventy eight six six ninety eight seven two 287 00:13:46.440 --> 00:13:49.399 five seventy. First quarter went by fast for a reason. 288 00:13:49.960 --> 00:13:51.720 There was a timeout that was skipped that we're making 289 00:13:51.799 --> 00:13:55.120 up for now. After the Clippers lose the OKC Thunder, 290 00:13:55.639 --> 00:13:57.879 they are zero to four at home to open up 291 00:13:57.879 --> 00:13:59.799 the end to a dome and two and four now 292 00:13:59.840 --> 00:14:04.039 on the season. And while there were some okay performances, 293 00:14:04.080 --> 00:14:06.600 I thought Terrence Man started off hot. I thought he 294 00:14:06.639 --> 00:14:08.600 had a really good first half. I thought Kevin Porter 295 00:14:08.679 --> 00:14:11.360 Junior had a good first half. It's hard to find 296 00:14:11.399 --> 00:14:13.559 anyone outside of Norm Pale who had a good second 297 00:14:13.559 --> 00:14:15.679 half of this team. If I'm being honest, if I'm 298 00:14:15.679 --> 00:14:18.000 being blunt with you, we'll get into it coming up 299 00:14:18.039 --> 00:14:21.399 next on Clippers Talk outside of Los Angeles.

We'll get 318 00:15:20.919 --> 00:15:22.639 to your phone calls at eight sixty six nine eight 319 00:15:22.639 --> 00:15:24.919 seven two five seventy eight sixty six ninet eight seven 320 00:15:24.960 --> 00:15:29.000 two five seventy is the phone number we'll get to 321 00:15:29.000 --> 00:15:31.519 you guys in the chat, even the ones who are 322 00:15:31.519 --> 00:15:35.480 spamming it, Okay, maybe not them. I know there's a 323 00:15:35.519 --> 00:15:37.559 lot of frustration right now, Clipper Nation. You got to 324 00:15:37.600 --> 00:15:40.279 put things in perspective. This was game six, They're two 325 00:15:40.279 --> 00:15:44.360 and four, and I think, and I said heading into 326 00:15:44.399 --> 00:15:47.159 this one, look, this could be the turning point for 327 00:15:47.240 --> 00:15:50.360 coach lou if they don't show up against OKAC. And 328 00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:54.200 in the second half they did not. They weren't good 329 00:15:54.240 --> 00:15:56.440 enough in any facet, and it really started midway through 330 00:15:56.480 --> 00:15:59.720 the second quarter. They had a thirteen point lead. Again, 331 00:15:59.840 --> 00:16:02.240 another double digit lead that they couldn't hold on to 332 00:16:02.799 --> 00:16:04.559 and as a four point lead by the time the 333 00:16:04.600 --> 00:16:09.759 half comps. It didn't stop the momentum or stem it 334 00:16:09.799 --> 00:16:12.440 though with the OKC thunder, because in the third they 335 00:16:12.480 --> 00:16:15.200 outscored the Clippers twenty eight to twenty one after outscoring 336 00:16:15.240 --> 00:16:18.840 them thirty four to twenty nine in the second quarter, 337 00:16:20.120 --> 00:16:22.120 and a lot of that was damaged done late in 338 00:16:22.200 --> 00:16:29.000 the quarter, Clippers let go of the momentum. That's where 339 00:16:29.039 --> 00:16:31.000 I think the frustration comes in. When you see a 340 00:16:31.039 --> 00:16:33.320 team consistently up double digits. They have been up up 341 00:16:33.320 --> 00:16:37.679 double digits in every game so far and they are 342 00:16:37.679 --> 00:16:43.080 two and four. Yeah, j Doub three pointer to end 343 00:16:43.320 --> 00:16:47.960 the first half well with thirty one seconds left, and 344 00:16:47.960 --> 00:16:51.679 then a Clippers turnover. Hey, how about those turnovers? Twenty 345 00:16:51.720 --> 00:16:59.000 of them again, people are pointing to James Harden, he 346 00:16:59.120 --> 00:17:03.759 only had two of them. Would that surprise you? Seven 347 00:17:03.759 --> 00:17:06.160 assists to two turnovers in thirty two minutes. Didn't play 348 00:17:06.200 --> 00:17:10.480 heavy minutes. Clippers were out of this one. With about 349 00:17:10.480 --> 00:17:13.519 four minutes left. Coach Lou waved the white flag, said 350 00:17:13.640 --> 00:17:17.000 enough line change, kept a mere coffee in there, but 351 00:17:17.039 --> 00:17:21.880 brought in Kobe, Jordan Bones and Kai try to switch 352 00:17:21.960 --> 00:17:25.279 up the energy. I think the game was out of reach, 353 00:17:26.519 --> 00:17:32.440 but it is just what I've been telling you the 354 00:17:32.519 --> 00:17:36.079 last couple of days playing out on the court tonight. 355 00:17:37.839 --> 00:17:42.160 The Clippers can out talent teams for a bit in 356 00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:45.200 the regular season, they can outwork them, excuse me, for 357 00:17:45.240 --> 00:17:49.079 a bit. And you saw that in the first half. 358 00:17:49.759 --> 00:17:51.960 You saw that in the first five minutes. The defense 359 00:17:52.039 --> 00:17:55.079 was tremendous to start this game. But as the game 360 00:17:55.119 --> 00:17:59.400 goes on, the talent starts to take over, and you 361 00:17:59.440 --> 00:18:02.960 see the seven and talent between the Clippers and the opposition, 362 00:18:03.640 --> 00:18:07.000 especially on the offensive end, where the Clippers just don't 363 00:18:07.039 --> 00:18:09.200 have a lot of shot creators, to say the least. 364 00:18:09.880 --> 00:18:10.039 So. 365 00:18:11.720 --> 00:18:15.160 When teams want to turn on the gas, they catch 366 00:18:15.240 --> 00:18:20.079 up in a hurry because if both teams are playing 367 00:18:20.119 --> 00:18:22.000 hard all of a sudden, then what does it come 368 00:18:22.039 --> 00:18:28.960 down to, Well, the more talented team, typically the OKAC 369 00:18:29.119 --> 00:18:32.720 Thunder or the more talented team here this result was 370 00:18:32.759 --> 00:18:38.200 not surprising to me whatsoever. This is exactly what I've 371 00:18:38.200 --> 00:18:40.920 been talking about the last twenty four hours. When the 372 00:18:40.960 --> 00:18:43.400 game gets close, when it's down to crunch time, when 373 00:18:43.400 --> 00:18:46.319 it's down to winning time, that's when you see the 374 00:18:46.400 --> 00:18:49.359 talent divide and there's a wide chasm between the Clippers 375 00:18:49.359 --> 00:18:52.720 and the OKC Thunder, who are even hurt right now, 376 00:18:52.759 --> 00:18:59.319 And it doesn't matter no Isaiah Hartenstein, the other Jalen 377 00:18:59.319 --> 00:19:04.880 Williams is out. And I asked Coach Lou pregame as 378 00:19:04.920 --> 00:19:11.319 people are talking about the three point shooting, I asked, 379 00:19:11.400 --> 00:19:14.960 Coach Lou, teams are shooting thirty nine point nine percent 380 00:19:15.039 --> 00:19:18.359 against you so far this season. What have you seen 381 00:19:18.440 --> 00:19:21.440 from your perimeter defense? And he wisely pointed out there 382 00:19:21.440 --> 00:19:24.480 were some great shooting performances the Phoenix Suns going fifteen 383 00:19:24.559 --> 00:19:28.680 for fifteen and just great players getting it done. But 384 00:19:28.759 --> 00:19:31.039 he also pointed out our rotations have to be better. 385 00:19:32.400 --> 00:19:35.680 He called a time out thirty five seconds in to 386 00:19:35.839 --> 00:19:40.680 the third quarter and said enough after one defensive Bosch 387 00:19:40.799 --> 00:19:44.519 possession where their rotations were completely out of whack and 388 00:19:44.559 --> 00:19:46.960 there was a lax of daisical effort on that end. 389 00:19:47.279 --> 00:19:49.319 So for those who want to call out coach Lou, 390 00:19:49.440 --> 00:19:51.079 I don't know what else he's supposed to do there. 391 00:19:51.480 --> 00:19:54.200 Thirty five seconds into the third quarter, he saw one 392 00:19:54.240 --> 00:19:58.359 play and said enough, that's not good enough. He did 393 00:19:58.440 --> 00:20:02.839 the same thing Thursday night when the Phoenix Suns took 394 00:20:02.880 --> 00:20:06.200 a twenty one point lead down to seventeen. He said enough, 395 00:20:06.279 --> 00:20:08.680 I'm calling a time out. I can tell they're getting hot. 396 00:20:10.920 --> 00:20:12.720 I'm gonna try and nip this in the bud. Right now, 397 00:20:13.559 --> 00:20:22.240 he is trying Jennifer, to quote CJ. McCollum. So if 398 00:20:22.240 --> 00:20:24.160 you want to put it on Coach Lou when there 399 00:20:24.240 --> 00:20:27.200 obviously is a talent disadvantage that the Clippers are dealing 400 00:20:27.200 --> 00:20:29.880 with right now, go ahead. It just tells me you 401 00:20:29.920 --> 00:20:32.599
