22
00:01:07.640 --> 00:01:09.920
<v Speaker 2>I'm a little bit frustrated with this lost. Guys, if

23
00:01:09.959 --> 00:01:16.560
<v Speaker 2>I'm being honest with you and I am here, beats

24
00:01:16.560 --> 00:01:19.359
<v Speaker 2>a Zubots does not get a shot in the fourth quarter.

25
00:01:21.400 --> 00:01:24.599
<v Speaker 2>I brought it up during the broadcast, was talking about

26
00:01:24.760 --> 00:01:27.480
<v Speaker 2>late in the fourth quarter how James Harden and Kawhi

27
00:01:27.519 --> 00:01:31.040
<v Speaker 2>were being doubled at times and they found Chris Dunn

28
00:01:31.040 --> 00:01:34.079
<v Speaker 2>for an open floater and he can make that shot,

29
00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:40.519
<v Speaker 2>missed it. It's just amazing to me, though, how often

30
00:01:40.519 --> 00:01:44.000
<v Speaker 2>it beats A Zubots does not get featured. Who had

31
00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:47.120
<v Speaker 2>a really good game, who was a big part of

32
00:01:47.120 --> 00:01:49.680
<v Speaker 2>the reason they had the nine point lead heading into

33
00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:56.159
<v Speaker 2>the fourth quarter. He finished with twenty and fifteen. But

34
00:01:56.280 --> 00:01:59.719
<v Speaker 2>as I was looking at the stats from quarter to quarter,

35
00:02:00.319 --> 00:02:05.120
<v Speaker 2>let's see here, into the third quarter, meats zoo Bots

36
00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:08.199
<v Speaker 2>is eight of thirteen from the field. Into the fourth quarter,

37
00:02:08.439 --> 00:02:14.719
<v Speaker 2>he's eight of thirteen from the field. He didn't get

38
00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:21.439
<v Speaker 2>a shot. It's just wild to me. How many times

39
00:02:21.479 --> 00:02:24.599
<v Speaker 2>have I come on this show and teased out my

40
00:02:24.719 --> 00:02:28.439
<v Speaker 2>long awaited forgot about Dre forgot about Zoo parody song?

41
00:02:29.719 --> 00:02:34.319
<v Speaker 2>They forgot about Zoo again. Points were hard to come

42
00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:37.800
<v Speaker 2>by and they couldn't find Zoo. I'm not saying the

43
00:02:37.800 --> 00:02:43.840
<v Speaker 2>Milwaukee Bucks were letting them just dump it into a

44
00:02:43.919 --> 00:02:49.800
<v Speaker 2>Viata zoo bots easily. But come on, you're struggling out

45
00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:53.400
<v Speaker 2>there scoring wise. You gotta get Aviata Zoobots involved some

46
00:02:55.199 --> 00:03:00.319
<v Speaker 2>and it just keeps happening. I don't, I don't is

47
00:03:00.360 --> 00:03:02.680
<v Speaker 2>it ever gonna change? Like, what does he have to do?

48
00:03:03.560 --> 00:03:05.759
<v Speaker 2>How many times do you have to dunk on Brook

49
00:03:05.840 --> 00:03:12.560
<v Speaker 2>Lopez to get the ball on the block. He's a

50
00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:16.680
<v Speaker 2>good passer out of the short roll. There's there are

51
00:03:16.680 --> 00:03:18.439
<v Speaker 2>so many different ways to get a beat of Zubas

52
00:03:18.479 --> 00:03:20.759
<v Speaker 2>to the basketball, and he played about seven minutes in

53
00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:22.680
<v Speaker 2>the fourth quarter and you don't get one shot up.

54
00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:33.319
<v Speaker 2>I'm really just pointed the Clippers should have won that

55
00:03:33.360 --> 00:03:38.919
<v Speaker 2>game that follow out of may As. I just put

56
00:03:38.919 --> 00:03:41.520
<v Speaker 2>out a tweet that said, how does Zubas not get

57
00:03:41.520 --> 00:03:45.919
<v Speaker 2>a shot in the fourth How does this keep happening? Like, sure,

58
00:03:46.159 --> 00:03:49.520
<v Speaker 2>it's easy to say that without reviewing the tape. But

59
00:03:50.520 --> 00:03:52.919
<v Speaker 2>I see other guys that get to force up shots,

60
00:03:52.960 --> 00:03:57.840
<v Speaker 2>that get to take tough shots. I see other guys

61
00:03:57.879 --> 00:04:03.240
<v Speaker 2>that the Clippers are willing to ride or die with.

62
00:04:04.759 --> 00:04:11.240
<v Speaker 2>Zubots needs to be one of them. Aviatza Zubots has

63
00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:14.719
<v Speaker 2>to be featured more in a game like this, especially

64
00:04:15.360 --> 00:04:20.639
<v Speaker 2>because the level of physicality against the Milwaukee Bucks. The

65
00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:25.399
<v Speaker 2>Clippers went from being up thirteen with ten to fifty

66
00:04:25.439 --> 00:04:31.040
<v Speaker 2>five left in the ballgame in the fourth quarter after

67
00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:35.879
<v Speaker 2>a great feed from Bogey to Ben Simmons. Bogie had

68
00:04:35.879 --> 00:04:38.079
<v Speaker 2>a couple of really nice passes down the stretch of

69
00:04:38.120 --> 00:04:43.639
<v Speaker 2>this one who got the layup to Janis just going off.

70
00:04:44.519 --> 00:04:48.959
<v Speaker 2>He had I think ten of their twelve points over

71
00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:54.480
<v Speaker 2>a section of time in that fourth quarter, and that's

72
00:04:54.519 --> 00:04:57.319
<v Speaker 2>just you, honest, There's not much you can do. I

73
00:04:57.360 --> 00:04:58.959
<v Speaker 2>wonder if he was a little bit more fired up

74
00:04:59.000 --> 00:05:00.800
<v Speaker 2>after he got into it, would James Harden for a

75
00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:09.480
<v Speaker 2>second or an inbounds play where Harden was trying to

76
00:05:09.480 --> 00:05:16.040
<v Speaker 2>battle him for position and Joanness was kind of batting

77
00:05:16.040 --> 00:05:19.839
<v Speaker 2>his hand down, but we knew he was on a

78
00:05:19.839 --> 00:05:25.519
<v Speaker 2>minis restriction and with as good as he was making

79
00:05:25.560 --> 00:05:31.199
<v Speaker 2>shot after shot and Kawhi heitting a big three pointer

80
00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:35.000
<v Speaker 2>to still have the Clippers up ninety eight to eighty

81
00:05:35.040 --> 00:05:38.399
<v Speaker 2>six with eight fifty nine left. You have to close

82
00:05:38.399 --> 00:05:42.199
<v Speaker 2>out that game. You have to win that game. When

83
00:05:42.240 --> 00:05:47.000
<v Speaker 2>Giannis is only going to play the first six minutes

84
00:05:47.040 --> 00:05:48.360
<v Speaker 2>and I don't even think he played that of the

85
00:05:48.360 --> 00:05:52.000
<v Speaker 2>fourth quarter on the minister restriction and you're up twelve,

86
00:05:52.800 --> 00:05:59.720
<v Speaker 2>you have to win that game. That's why I'm frustrated.

87
00:06:02.120 --> 00:06:07.120
<v Speaker 2>So how did they do it? How did the Milwaukee

88
00:06:07.160 --> 00:06:11.639
<v Speaker 2>Bucks end up winning a game like this where they

89
00:06:11.639 --> 00:06:14.800
<v Speaker 2>don't have Giannis the last I think six minutes and

90
00:06:14.839 --> 00:06:18.040
<v Speaker 2>twenty seven seconds when aj Green came in for him

91
00:06:18.360 --> 00:06:20.160
<v Speaker 2>and the Clippers are still up by five at one

92
00:06:20.160 --> 00:06:23.759
<v Speaker 2>on one to ninety six. Well, first, Dame gets filed

93
00:06:23.800 --> 00:06:27.120
<v Speaker 2>on three hits all three. That was a theme. They

94
00:06:27.120 --> 00:06:31.079
<v Speaker 2>took fifteen free throws in the fourth. Dame took ten

95
00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:36.439
<v Speaker 2>of them. Kuzma gets fouled on an an one after

96
00:06:36.480 --> 00:06:39.120
<v Speaker 2>a bad turnover. James Harden looking for a beats his zubox.

97
00:06:39.120 --> 00:06:41.120
<v Speaker 2>At least he was looking for him, but it was

98
00:06:41.160 --> 00:06:45.199
<v Speaker 2>not a good pass. Dame took it away. Kuzma got

99
00:06:45.199 --> 00:06:51.399
<v Speaker 2>fouled by James in transition. He would actually miss the

100
00:06:51.439 --> 00:06:54.519
<v Speaker 2>free throw. But it's one oh one all just quick

101
00:06:54.560 --> 00:06:58.439
<v Speaker 2>five zero run by them. Now make it an eight

102
00:06:58.480 --> 00:07:02.480
<v Speaker 2>ozhero run a splash. Mountain was up and running, with

103
00:07:02.639 --> 00:07:06.399
<v Speaker 2>Brook Lopez knocking down a huge three pointer off a

104
00:07:06.439 --> 00:07:11.600
<v Speaker 2>pass from Dame. Chris Dunn, who's hit I think six

105
00:07:11.639 --> 00:07:13.920
<v Speaker 2>of his last seven from three after being in a

106
00:07:13.920 --> 00:07:17.439
<v Speaker 2>woeful slump, did answer tie game at one o four,

107
00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:20.800
<v Speaker 2>And now you just go through this stretch where nobody

108
00:07:20.920 --> 00:07:24.319
<v Speaker 2>can score for almost two minutes from the four to

109
00:07:24.399 --> 00:07:26.560
<v Speaker 2>fifty one mark with them tied at one oh four

110
00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:30.319
<v Speaker 2>of the fourth quarter till the three to oh three mark.

111
00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:37.160
<v Speaker 2>Nobody scored until brook Lopez got the end one where

112
00:07:37.160 --> 00:07:40.639
<v Speaker 2>a mere Coffee was once again the guilty party committing

113
00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:46.680
<v Speaker 2>the foul that put him up by seven. Excuse me,

114
00:07:46.720 --> 00:07:51.160
<v Speaker 2>one oh seven, one oh four by three. Chris Dunn

115
00:07:51.160 --> 00:07:53.360
<v Speaker 2>would then miss that floater. It was a good look.

116
00:07:56.480 --> 00:07:59.519
<v Speaker 2>He needed to make it. He knows it. He was

117
00:07:59.600 --> 00:08:04.839
<v Speaker 2>kicking his but afterwards. But then a Mere fouled Dame

118
00:08:04.920 --> 00:08:07.879
<v Speaker 2>on the other end again on a three pointer. So

119
00:08:08.040 --> 00:08:12.319
<v Speaker 2>three consequential fouls by a mere Coffee that really hurt him.

120
00:08:14.399 --> 00:08:17.240
<v Speaker 2>He'll bounce back from it. Wasn't his best game. He

121
00:08:17.319 --> 00:08:21.839
<v Speaker 2>got the start, no Norman Powell, but that's not why

122
00:08:21.839 --> 00:08:25.360
<v Speaker 2>the Clippers lost this game. Milwaukee didn't have Bobby Portis

123
00:08:25.680 --> 00:08:29.519
<v Speaker 2>and they had Dame and Giannis on a minutes restriction,

124
00:08:32.039 --> 00:08:34.080
<v Speaker 2>you're up thirteen early in the fourth win the game.

125
00:08:38.320 --> 00:08:41.440
<v Speaker 2>This is a no excuses type of loss for me

126
00:08:42.000 --> 00:08:44.799
<v Speaker 2>and a bad one for the Clippers to start off

127
00:08:44.799 --> 00:08:49.080
<v Speaker 2>the post All Star break, to start off this. Now

128
00:08:49.159 --> 00:08:52.399
<v Speaker 2>six games left on this initially eight game road trip,

129
00:08:54.879 --> 00:08:59.000
<v Speaker 2>and I thought they were gonna win it. I thought

130
00:08:59.000 --> 00:09:04.639
<v Speaker 2>for sure they were gonna pull went out. I thought

131
00:09:04.919 --> 00:09:06.759
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi was gonna give him a little bit more in

132
00:09:06.799 --> 00:09:12.559
<v Speaker 2>the fourth quarter. In Game five, he got subbed out,

133
00:09:12.840 --> 00:09:15.360
<v Speaker 2>He came back in, then he got subbed out again.

134
00:09:15.440 --> 00:09:19.279
<v Speaker 2>Late Bogey came in and played well. If you're looking

135
00:09:19.279 --> 00:09:22.519
<v Speaker 2>for a bright spot, that three he hit over Splash

136
00:09:22.600 --> 00:09:25.360
<v Speaker 2>Mountain was incredible. I joked he had to get on

137
00:09:25.360 --> 00:09:27.360
<v Speaker 2>top of the matterhorn to knock down that three over

138
00:09:27.399 --> 00:09:30.080
<v Speaker 2>Splash Mountain like it was an insane shot that they

139
00:09:30.120 --> 00:09:36.120
<v Speaker 2>originally called along too. But I mean, you start off

140
00:09:36.159 --> 00:09:41.960
<v Speaker 2>the fourth quarter, Kawhi fade away, they're up eleven, and

141
00:09:42.039 --> 00:09:46.759
<v Speaker 2>you get up thirteen after that Ben Simmons layout, what

142
00:09:46.840 --> 00:09:51.360
<v Speaker 2>a feed from Boge, by the way, but then Giannis

143
00:09:51.399 --> 00:09:53.399
<v Speaker 2>gets to the free throw line. Sign of things to come.

144
00:09:54.879 --> 00:09:56.960
<v Speaker 2>I said early on the fourth quarter, the key is

145
00:09:57.000 --> 00:10:00.720
<v Speaker 2>defend without fouling. They couldn't. In fact, they were in

146
00:10:00.720 --> 00:10:05.080
<v Speaker 2>the bonus round the eight minute mark the Milwaukee Bucks.

147
00:10:07.120 --> 00:10:09.960
<v Speaker 2>So I understand to some degree the freak out and

148
00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:13.799
<v Speaker 2>the sky is falling reaction from Clippers fans. You're passionate,

149
00:10:14.919 --> 00:10:16.840
<v Speaker 2>and this was a game they should have won. I

150
00:10:16.879 --> 00:10:22.440
<v Speaker 2>agree with you. Absolutely should have won this game. They

151
00:10:22.440 --> 00:10:25.720
<v Speaker 2>couldn't get enough stops, and they couldn't execute on offense,

152
00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:37.159
<v Speaker 2>and somehow, even without Yannis playing the majority of the

153
00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:40.000
<v Speaker 2>fourth quarter, they lost a game where they were up

154
00:10:40.000 --> 00:10:43.360
<v Speaker 2>by thirteen in the fourth final score one sixteen, one

155
00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:45.960
<v Speaker 2>ten in favor of the Bucks. We'll come back. We'll

156
00:10:45.960 --> 00:10:47.879
<v Speaker 2>get to your phone calls. Eight sixty six nine eighty

157
00:10:47.919 --> 00:10:51.440
<v Speaker 2>seven two five seventy eight sixty six, nine eighty seven

158
00:10:52.039 --> 00:10:58.039
<v Speaker 2>two five seventy. I'm Madame Moslin, and you're listening to

159
00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:04.399
<v Speaker 2>Clippers sock here on the N five seven other sports.

160
00:11:04.759 --> 00:11:06.360
<v Speaker 3>I love this team. I never miss a game.

161
00:11:06.759 --> 00:11:10.799
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to LA Clippers basketball free ball, Yes, sir,

162
00:11:11.320 --> 00:11:14.080
<v Speaker 1>right here on the LA Clippers Audio network.

163
00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:21.120
<v Speaker 2>All right, I got some good news, Coach lu said postgame.

164
00:11:21.200 --> 00:11:23.960
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi Leonard was fine. He just ran out of minutes,

165
00:11:24.879 --> 00:11:29.000
<v Speaker 2>just like Giannis did. Clippers still lose to a Yannis

166
00:11:29.159 --> 00:11:31.320
<v Speaker 2>less team in the last six minutes of the game

167
00:11:31.399 --> 00:11:34.679
<v Speaker 2>one sixteen to one ten as the Bucks stepped up

168
00:11:35.279 --> 00:11:40.000
<v Speaker 2>made big plays. The block that brook Lopez had on

169
00:11:40.080 --> 00:11:43.799
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi to start the fourth quarter was impressive. Then I

170
00:11:43.840 --> 00:11:47.320
<v Speaker 2>want to say he had another one, the Brookie Monster,

171
00:11:48.480 --> 00:11:53.600
<v Speaker 2>and it was against Bogie in the fourth. He stepped up,

172
00:11:54.559 --> 00:12:00.720
<v Speaker 2>he carried, but the Clippers had every opportunity to win

173
00:12:00.759 --> 00:12:05.679
<v Speaker 2>that game. I know some of you guys are focusing

174
00:12:05.720 --> 00:12:07.840
<v Speaker 2>in on why was a mere Coffee in and playing

175
00:12:07.840 --> 00:12:10.679
<v Speaker 2>that many minutes. Well, traditionally a mere Coffee has been

176
00:12:10.759 --> 00:12:12.799
<v Speaker 2>very good when he's filled in in the starting lineup.

177
00:12:12.879 --> 00:12:15.799
<v Speaker 2>He had a bad game. He had some bad fouls

178
00:12:16.519 --> 00:12:20.720
<v Speaker 2>at inopportune times. He still had a couple of plays

179
00:12:20.720 --> 00:12:25.039
<v Speaker 2>in transition that were incredible. It wasn't all bad. He

180
00:12:25.080 --> 00:12:27.840
<v Speaker 2>had a couple of defensive possessions against Giannis that were incredible.

181
00:12:28.399 --> 00:12:35.080
<v Speaker 2>He caused a turnover. Would you have gone with more?

182
00:12:35.159 --> 00:12:39.279
<v Speaker 2>Done more DJ who I think only ended up playing.

183
00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:41.159
<v Speaker 2>Let me see what Derek Jones Junior was at in

184
00:12:41.159 --> 00:12:44.679
<v Speaker 2>this game coming off the bench to twenty minutes. Yeah,

185
00:12:44.720 --> 00:12:51.159
<v Speaker 2>those are fair arguments. I suppose he wasn't minus ten

186
00:12:51.200 --> 00:12:55.960
<v Speaker 2>in his twenty minutes, but one game sample size. You

187
00:12:56.000 --> 00:12:59.279
<v Speaker 2>could play Ben Simmons more. But I don't like the

188
00:12:59.320 --> 00:13:03.519
<v Speaker 2>Ben Simmons look next to him eats the Zubats. I

189
00:13:03.519 --> 00:13:05.600
<v Speaker 2>didn't think i'd like it, and I haven't liked it

190
00:13:05.679 --> 00:13:08.360
<v Speaker 2>so far. In fact, there was a play before Ben

191
00:13:08.399 --> 00:13:11.279
<v Speaker 2>Simmons came out in the fourth quarter where he had

192
00:13:11.320 --> 00:13:14.360
<v Speaker 2>the basketball and Milwaukee was just daring him to shoot.

193
00:13:14.879 --> 00:13:18.799
<v Speaker 2>And so there you are again playing four on five

194
00:13:19.080 --> 00:13:22.440
<v Speaker 2>on offense. Same issue you'd have with Russ at times.

195
00:13:23.320 --> 00:13:26.240
<v Speaker 2>Now Ben's not going to force the shots like Russ.

196
00:13:26.240 --> 00:13:29.240
<v Speaker 2>And I thought he was solid out there in the ballgame.

197
00:13:29.919 --> 00:13:34.039
<v Speaker 2>He was three of three, four assists, zero turnovers. He's

198
00:13:34.080 --> 00:13:36.000
<v Speaker 2>better at taking care of the basketball and also not

199
00:13:36.039 --> 00:13:40.360
<v Speaker 2>forcing bad passes. But right after that, Ben Simmons came

200
00:13:40.360 --> 00:13:41.600
<v Speaker 2>out of the game, and I thought it was the

201
00:13:41.639 --> 00:13:45.600
<v Speaker 2>right move. In the fourth quarter, there was a challenge

202
00:13:45.600 --> 00:13:47.399
<v Speaker 2>that also didn't go their way on an out of

203
00:13:47.440 --> 00:13:54.360
<v Speaker 2>bounds call. Clippers lost that one. I just think that

204
00:13:54.360 --> 00:13:58.519
<v Speaker 2>any had more from James Harden or Kawhi in the

205
00:13:58.519 --> 00:14:01.879
<v Speaker 2>fourth when he was out there. Harden ended up with

206
00:14:02.159 --> 00:14:03.679
<v Speaker 2>I want to see how many points he ended up

207
00:14:03.759 --> 00:14:08.000
<v Speaker 2>having in the fourth that one turnover I know was

208
00:14:08.080 --> 00:14:10.399
<v Speaker 2>bad where they got the runout in the and one

209
00:14:10.440 --> 00:14:13.360
<v Speaker 2>for Kuzma, but he missed the free throw. It was

210
00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:16.519
<v Speaker 2>and overall, James Harden has had far too many lacks

211
00:14:16.519 --> 00:14:19.600
<v Speaker 2>of days a cool turnovers in fourth quarters this season,

212
00:14:20.440 --> 00:14:25.879
<v Speaker 2>Like it is dangerously close to him being a one

213
00:14:25.919 --> 00:14:28.840
<v Speaker 2>to one ratio assist a turnover ratio in fourth quarters

214
00:14:28.840 --> 00:14:33.519
<v Speaker 2>this season. For James Harden, it's been bad. He only

215
00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:37.000
<v Speaker 2>had two turnovers, but one came in a really bad

216
00:14:37.039 --> 00:14:43.159
<v Speaker 2>time and he had twenty one points entering the fourth,

217
00:14:44.080 --> 00:14:47.200
<v Speaker 2>so three points total in the fourth quarter. He also

218
00:14:47.200 --> 00:14:50.879
<v Speaker 2>missed a free throw without the time. Ooh, that could

219
00:14:50.919 --> 00:14:53.320
<v Speaker 2>come back to bite him now. Milwaukee missed a couple

220
00:14:53.320 --> 00:14:56.399
<v Speaker 2>two they went twelve to fifteen. Yes, they attempted fifteen

221
00:14:56.399 --> 00:15:01.320
<v Speaker 2>free throws in the fourth quarter alone. Dame's crafty too,

222
00:15:01.759 --> 00:15:04.279
<v Speaker 2>he can draw those fouls on three pointers. He guess

223
00:15:04.279 --> 00:15:06.559
<v Speaker 2>your handcutt in the cookies jar like a mere coffees did.

224
00:15:09.200 --> 00:15:13.799
<v Speaker 2>Again of Easta Zubots being left out is the probably

225
00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:17.360
<v Speaker 2>the biggest story to me, being left out, frozen out,

226
00:15:17.440 --> 00:15:20.120
<v Speaker 2>whatever you want to say. Just he was not featured

227
00:15:20.159 --> 00:15:27.519
<v Speaker 2>at all, no features in the fourth quarter. Really disappointing,

228
00:15:29.240 --> 00:15:33.240
<v Speaker 2>upsetting because it's been a for me. This has been

229
00:15:33.320 --> 00:15:36.679
<v Speaker 2>a theme for years. I've been saying for years, there's

230
00:15:36.720 --> 00:15:38.639
<v Speaker 2>an easier way to win ball games, get it to

231
00:15:38.639 --> 00:15:41.120
<v Speaker 2>Big Zoo, and they haven't done it. Now this season,

232
00:15:41.600 --> 00:15:48.200
<v Speaker 2>there's really no excuse with the opportunity he should have.

233
00:15:48.919 --> 00:15:53.440
<v Speaker 2>Paul George is gone, Norm Powell wasn't playing tonight. Zoo's

234
00:15:53.440 --> 00:15:58.440
<v Speaker 2>got twenty and fifteen damn near out playing Giannis and

235
00:15:58.480 --> 00:16:03.720
<v Speaker 2>brook Lopez. At times, Jannis had to intentionally foul him

236
00:16:03.840 --> 00:16:07.759
<v Speaker 2>when Zoo was on the left block. You just said, no, Moss,

237
00:16:08.000 --> 00:16:10.799
<v Speaker 2>I'm just gonna intentionally foul. I don't want this smoke.

238
00:16:11.639 --> 00:16:15.879
<v Speaker 2>Are you kidding? And that guy doesn't get a shot

239
00:16:16.200 --> 00:16:20.360
<v Speaker 2>in the fourth quarter. Demetrius, You're a Clippers talk without

240
00:16:20.360 --> 00:16:22.639
<v Speaker 2>a masl who's getting himself very much worked up to

241
00:16:22.639 --> 00:16:24.960
<v Speaker 2>the point that I'm talking in third person. What's up, Demetrius?

242
00:16:26.000 --> 00:16:29.559
<v Speaker 4>What's going on? Adam? I feel your frustration, Trust me,

243
00:16:30.559 --> 00:16:34.159
<v Speaker 4>I feel how you feel. I mean, basically you're speaking

244
00:16:34.200 --> 00:16:37.720
<v Speaker 4>to the choir. With everything you just mentioned about Zuba,

245
00:16:38.279 --> 00:16:43.120
<v Speaker 4>I'm very disappointing. Just the overall loss was devastating, very

246
00:16:43.279 --> 00:16:46.840
<v Speaker 4>very devastating loss that they should have never lost this game.

247
00:16:47.600 --> 00:16:52.360
<v Speaker 4>It's this inexcusable. It's really it's heartbreaking to see that

248
00:16:52.399 --> 00:16:58.600
<v Speaker 4>they lost the game with Damian Lennard and in Yannis

249
00:16:58.799 --> 00:17:01.600
<v Speaker 4>on the restriction. On top of that, you know, we

250
00:17:01.679 --> 00:17:06.160
<v Speaker 4>played solid defense in the third but I'm solid.

251
00:17:05.759 --> 00:17:08.160
<v Speaker 2>That was some of the best defense I've seen all season.

252
00:17:08.200 --> 00:17:11.680
<v Speaker 2>In the third quarter. They created ten turnovers on Milwaukee.

253
00:17:11.720 --> 00:17:15.119
<v Speaker 2>That was some incredible defense by them. Demitrius, I really

254
00:17:15.160 --> 00:17:17.240
<v Speaker 2>wanted them to pull it out because that would have

255
00:17:17.240 --> 00:17:19.000
<v Speaker 2>been my number one talking point. That was one of

256
00:17:19.039 --> 00:17:20.279
<v Speaker 2>the best quarters of the season.

257
00:17:21.480 --> 00:17:24.279
<v Speaker 4>That is correct, and so and you know, it was

258
00:17:24.400 --> 00:17:27.920
<v Speaker 4>just frustrating that And listen, you know, as bad as

259
00:17:27.960 --> 00:17:29.680
<v Speaker 4>I want to see, you know, I hate to say this,

260
00:17:30.400 --> 00:17:32.759
<v Speaker 4>but you know, you know, the players got to go

261
00:17:32.799 --> 00:17:35.400
<v Speaker 4>out there perform, but you know, the coaches also got

262
00:17:35.400 --> 00:17:39.240
<v Speaker 4>to put plays, you know, in there for them to perform.

263
00:17:39.319 --> 00:17:42.359
<v Speaker 4>I thought that it was a lack luxter for them

264
00:17:42.440 --> 00:17:44.599
<v Speaker 4>not to have Zubac in the game. He played a

265
00:17:44.759 --> 00:17:47.880
<v Speaker 4>solid game. Twenty fifteen will take that all day, and

266
00:17:47.920 --> 00:17:50.839
<v Speaker 4>it ain't get a shot in the fourth quarter. So

267
00:17:50.880 --> 00:17:53.759
<v Speaker 4>sometimes you know, you live by the sword, you die

268
00:17:53.759 --> 00:17:55.920
<v Speaker 4>by the sward, and I think the fact that this

269
00:17:56.039 --> 00:17:59.599
<v Speaker 4>Clipper team got to understand that in order for us

270
00:17:59.640 --> 00:18:03.039
<v Speaker 4>to win and we need everybody on board. It's not

271
00:18:03.240 --> 00:18:06.839
<v Speaker 4>like the you know, you need everybody on board for

272
00:18:06.880 --> 00:18:09.880
<v Speaker 4>this team to go far. And Zubacca's got to be

273
00:18:09.960 --> 00:18:12.759
<v Speaker 4>the centerpiece of this. I'm telling he makes it more

274
00:18:12.839 --> 00:18:17.039
<v Speaker 4>easier for everybody. The spacing has it was great, and

275
00:18:17.079 --> 00:18:19.880
<v Speaker 4>he showed everybody that he can play against Gianni's, he

276
00:18:19.880 --> 00:18:22.279
<v Speaker 4>can play against any center. Matter of fact, I got

277
00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:25.279
<v Speaker 4>him at top three. I made, you know, top three

278
00:18:25.359 --> 00:18:27.279
<v Speaker 4>center this year. I mean it may be a little

279
00:18:27.319 --> 00:18:29.359
<v Speaker 4>bit far since, but I don't think so.

280
00:18:30.279 --> 00:18:34.039
<v Speaker 2>He's at least I would say he's for sure top

281
00:18:34.160 --> 00:18:36.880
<v Speaker 2>seven based upon the list that I made about a

282
00:18:36.920 --> 00:18:40.200
<v Speaker 2>month ago, going through every center season, he's at worse

283
00:18:40.359 --> 00:18:42.640
<v Speaker 2>the seventh best center in the league.

284
00:18:44.079 --> 00:18:46.799
<v Speaker 4>Yes, I mean I've seen some good things out of

285
00:18:46.880 --> 00:18:51.079
<v Speaker 4>him defensively. The reason why I said between three and

286
00:18:51.200 --> 00:18:56.200
<v Speaker 4>five because defensively he has awakened. But again, Adam, you know,

287
00:18:57.000 --> 00:19:00.640
<v Speaker 4>my energy is a little low. I'm just I'm I'm

288
00:19:00.799 --> 00:19:05.119
<v Speaker 4>crushed by the devastation loss tonight, and a loss like

289
00:19:05.200 --> 00:19:08.640
<v Speaker 4>this will do two things. Either mentally, it will break

290
00:19:08.680 --> 00:19:12.680
<v Speaker 4>you down or you know, physically, you would just you know,

291
00:19:12.880 --> 00:19:15.920
<v Speaker 4>be angry at the world the next day. And it's

292
00:19:16.000 --> 00:19:19.440
<v Speaker 4>just showing that in the scorebox. So you know, again,

293
00:19:20.279 --> 00:19:24.200
<v Speaker 4>you know what else can we really say to anyone

294
00:19:24.240 --> 00:19:27.079
<v Speaker 4>that's angry. I mean, they have a right to be angry.

295
00:19:27.359 --> 00:19:31.640
<v Speaker 4>But again, this was not just a lack of the

296
00:19:31.759 --> 00:19:35.720
<v Speaker 4>team disciplined in the fourth quarter, but you also got

297
00:19:35.759 --> 00:19:39.200
<v Speaker 4>to put some of it on the coaches as well. Adam,

298
00:19:39.240 --> 00:19:40.359
<v Speaker 4>thank you for taking a call.

299
00:19:40.559 --> 00:19:43.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think there's blame to go around. I appreciate you,

300
00:19:43.160 --> 00:19:47.400
<v Speaker 2>Demetrius making me feel a little bit better. The Clippers

301
00:19:48.039 --> 00:19:52.920
<v Speaker 2>ended up with in that fourth quarter five of their

302
00:19:52.960 --> 00:19:57.839
<v Speaker 2>fourteen turnovers. Now I know what y'all are thinking, and

303
00:19:57.920 --> 00:20:05.200
<v Speaker 2>he might be right. Oh I didn't notice this earlier. Yeah,

304
00:20:05.319 --> 00:20:11.400
<v Speaker 2>James Harden ended up with five turnovers. How many of

305
00:20:11.440 --> 00:20:15.920
<v Speaker 2>those five were James Harden's So he had three of

306
00:20:15.960 --> 00:20:18.680
<v Speaker 2>their five turnovers in the fourth quarter, Like, he's gotta

307
00:20:18.720 --> 00:20:23.480
<v Speaker 2>be better than that, coach, lou Here's the thing, I

308
00:20:23.519 --> 00:20:26.799
<v Speaker 2>don't know what he told them, Like one of those

309
00:20:26.839 --> 00:20:29.359
<v Speaker 2>turnovers came off of James Harden trying to find a

310
00:20:29.440 --> 00:20:33.680
<v Speaker 2>Vista zubas By the way that should be mentioned. I

311
00:20:33.680 --> 00:20:35.200
<v Speaker 2>don't know if it's on the players or on the

312
00:20:35.240 --> 00:20:37.000
<v Speaker 2>coach when it comes to not getting a Visa Zubos

313
00:20:37.079 --> 00:20:38.759
<v Speaker 2>shot in the fourth quarter more because I don't know

314
00:20:38.799 --> 00:20:39.400
<v Speaker 2>what he told him.

315
00:20:41.559 --> 00:20:43.039
<v Speaker 1>But it is.

316
00:20:45.960 --> 00:20:50.440
<v Speaker 2>Really becoming a sore spot for me in losses where

317
00:20:50.480 --> 00:20:52.200
<v Speaker 2>how many times have I come on here and had

318
00:20:52.200 --> 00:20:54.279
<v Speaker 2>to say, why isn't a Vita Zubas getting the ball?

319
00:20:54.319 --> 00:20:59.160
<v Speaker 2>Bar reward him? The guy blocked Dame on a three

320
00:20:59.200 --> 00:21:02.400
<v Speaker 2>pointer on the pro editor blocked him at the ram too.

321
00:21:03.720 --> 00:21:09.839
<v Speaker 2>Was just a complete badass out there. You can't keep

322
00:21:09.880 --> 00:21:14.359
<v Speaker 2>doing this. You're not going to win. Demetrius is right.

323
00:21:16.960 --> 00:21:21.160
<v Speaker 2>If you don't get Big Zoo involved, you're lowering your

324
00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:24.319
<v Speaker 2>ceiling ultimately as a team and how far you can go.

325
00:21:25.519 --> 00:21:30.359
<v Speaker 2>He's that good, He's that important. Clippers lose one sixteen

326
00:21:30.400 --> 00:21:33.319
<v Speaker 2>to one ten, inexplicably after being up by thirteen in

327
00:21:33.359 --> 00:21:37.799
<v Speaker 2>the fourth quarter in Milwaukee to a team that didn't

328
00:21:37.799 --> 00:21:39.319
<v Speaker 2>even have be honest the last six and a half

329
00:21:39.359 --> 00:21:42.440
<v Speaker 2>minutes of the game. Or Clippers sock next here on

330
00:21:42.599 --> 00:21:45.519
<v Speaker 2>mPire seven LA Sports.

331
00:21:45.839 --> 00:21:47.440
<v Speaker 3>I love this team. I never miss a game.

332
00:21:47.839 --> 00:21:51.839
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to LA Clippers basketball free ball, Yes, sir,

333
00:21:52.400 --> 00:21:55.160
<v Speaker 1>right here on the LA Clippers Audio network.

334
00:21:56.119 --> 00:21:58.279
<v Speaker 2>Clippers are up twelve with eight p fifty left in

335
00:21:58.319 --> 00:22:01.640
<v Speaker 2>the fourth quarter. Is going out of the game in

336
00:22:01.720 --> 00:22:05.599
<v Speaker 2>the next two minutes. He's hitting his minutes limit, and

337
00:22:05.720 --> 00:22:08.480
<v Speaker 2>you lose and get out scored thirty to nine the

338
00:22:08.519 --> 00:22:12.720
<v Speaker 2>rest of the way before Bogie hits that three over

339
00:22:12.759 --> 00:22:17.680
<v Speaker 2>Brook Lopez, which ended up being too little, too late. Yeah,

340
00:22:17.799 --> 00:22:22.279
<v Speaker 2>Clippers lose one, sixteen to one ten in Milwaukee. The

341
00:22:22.319 --> 00:22:26.119
<v Speaker 2>good news is there haven't been many of these miserable

342
00:22:26.200 --> 00:22:30.319
<v Speaker 2>losses this season where you felt like you had the

343
00:22:30.359 --> 00:22:35.519
<v Speaker 2>game in hand and were in complete control and had

344
00:22:35.680 --> 00:22:38.599
<v Speaker 2>zero excuse to lose that game. There haven't been many,

345
00:22:39.839 --> 00:22:44.440
<v Speaker 2>but this is one I'll remember, and it's a miserable

346
00:22:44.480 --> 00:22:48.319
<v Speaker 2>way obviously, to start off after the All Star Break.

347
00:22:49.799 --> 00:22:51.880
<v Speaker 2>I wanted to see them carry some momentum over from

348
00:22:51.920 --> 00:22:55.160
<v Speaker 2>that Jazz game and something else that keeps happening. I

349
00:22:55.200 --> 00:23:00.359
<v Speaker 2>talked about it a little bit again. Teams continue to

350
00:23:00.480 --> 00:23:04.319
<v Speaker 2>knock down threes against the Clippers early. This was the

351
00:23:04.359 --> 00:23:07.799
<v Speaker 2>fourth straight game, said Carlo Jimenez that teams have hit

352
00:23:07.920 --> 00:23:12.200
<v Speaker 2>at least five threes in the first quarter. I think

353
00:23:12.319 --> 00:23:21.079
<v Speaker 2>Milwaukee had seven and twelve in the first half. They

354
00:23:21.119 --> 00:23:23.119
<v Speaker 2>only had five in the second half, but they had

355
00:23:23.160 --> 00:23:26.920
<v Speaker 2>three timely ones, not to mention all the free throws

356
00:23:27.440 --> 00:23:31.680
<v Speaker 2>from being fouled on threes from Dame in the fourth

357
00:23:32.160 --> 00:23:35.160
<v Speaker 2>Dame hits a three, Brook hits a three, Toy and

358
00:23:35.240 --> 00:23:38.160
<v Speaker 2>Prince hits a three and Dame gets fouled on two

359
00:23:38.240 --> 00:23:40.680
<v Speaker 2>three pointers in the fourth quarter. So even though they

360
00:23:40.680 --> 00:23:43.160
<v Speaker 2>only had five many threes in the second half after

361
00:23:44.000 --> 00:23:48.599
<v Speaker 2>seven in the first quarter by Milwaukee, they hit timely ones.

362
00:23:50.880 --> 00:23:54.200
<v Speaker 2>Clippers didn't not enough of them, didn't feature Big Zoo

363
00:23:55.079 --> 00:23:56.799
<v Speaker 2>And like, if you if the problem is they can't

364
00:23:56.799 --> 00:24:00.880
<v Speaker 2>get the ball into him, then they got issues. I've

365
00:24:00.920 --> 00:24:03.519
<v Speaker 2>seen this before against Houston where they had trouble game

366
00:24:03.559 --> 00:24:05.920
<v Speaker 2>in the basketball when teams doubl or goes small against,

367
00:24:05.920 --> 00:24:10.240
<v Speaker 2>it beats a zoobots and it turns into turnovers, lazy passes.

368
00:24:11.000 --> 00:24:13.839
<v Speaker 2>I'd have to review the tape again. But if that's happening,

369
00:24:13.839 --> 00:24:16.319
<v Speaker 2>that's still not a good enough excuse to me. Figure

370
00:24:16.359 --> 00:24:20.519
<v Speaker 2>it out. Swing the ball around the perimeter and find

371
00:24:20.519 --> 00:24:24.119
<v Speaker 2>the opening to get Big zoof the basketball on the block.

372
00:24:24.799 --> 00:24:26.480
<v Speaker 2>We'll take a quick time out, we'll come back, we'll

373
00:24:26.480 --> 00:24:29.519
<v Speaker 2>close things out, Clippers lose in Milwaukee, won sixteen to one,

374
00:24:29.599 --> 00:24:34.000
<v Speaker 2>ten and dropped thirty one and twenty four on the season.

375
00:24:34.519 --> 00:24:36.200
<v Speaker 2>You're listening to Clippers Hocke here on the M five

376
00:24:36.200 --> 00:24:38.559
<v Speaker 2>to seventy LA Sports. Damn It Canada.

377
00:24:43.200 --> 00:24:44.799
<v Speaker 3>I love this team. I never miss a game.

378
00:24:45.160 --> 00:24:49.200
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to LA Clippers Basketball Free Ball. Yes, sir,

379
00:24:49.759 --> 00:24:52.519
<v Speaker 1>right here on the LA Clippers Audio network.

380
00:24:53.640 --> 00:24:55.079
<v Speaker 2>Clipper in Asia. I know a lot of you are

381
00:24:55.079 --> 00:24:57.640
<v Speaker 2>going after a mere Coffee for this one, but let's

382
00:24:57.640 --> 00:25:02.000
<v Speaker 2>be real. How many times has a coffee got the

383
00:25:02.039 --> 00:25:05.279
<v Speaker 2>spots start out of necessity with an injury and showed

384
00:25:05.359 --> 00:25:08.640
<v Speaker 2>up and played great. He had an off game, he

385
00:25:08.680 --> 00:25:11.759
<v Speaker 2>had a bad game. Could they have taken him out?

386
00:25:11.960 --> 00:25:14.279
<v Speaker 2>Could they have gone back to DJ who wasn't having

387
00:25:14.279 --> 00:25:18.720
<v Speaker 2>a great game either? Sure there were options. There's a

388
00:25:18.759 --> 00:25:20.759
<v Speaker 2>lot of blame to go around in this one. You

389
00:25:20.799 --> 00:25:23.359
<v Speaker 2>lose a game where you're up thirteen early in the fourth,

390
00:25:23.599 --> 00:25:25.880
<v Speaker 2>you're up twelve with eight to fifty left in the game.

391
00:25:26.400 --> 00:25:30.839
<v Speaker 2>A lot of people you can point fingers at, but

392
00:25:30.960 --> 00:25:33.000
<v Speaker 2>it comes down to not being able to defend without

393
00:25:33.039 --> 00:25:36.440
<v Speaker 2>fouling and not taking care of business against a Milwaukee

394
00:25:36.519 --> 00:25:40.720
<v Speaker 2>Bucks team. That didn't have You're honest for the last

395
00:25:40.720 --> 00:25:44.880
<v Speaker 2>six and a half minutes and Big Zoo not getting

396
00:25:44.920 --> 00:25:48.160
<v Speaker 2>a shot up in the fourth to me, Clippers have

397
00:25:48.200 --> 00:25:51.160
<v Speaker 2>to respond. Sunday, they'll be in Indiana taken on the

398
00:25:51.160 --> 00:25:57.279
<v Speaker 2>Pacers tip time at two, pre game at one. Of course,

399
00:25:58.440 --> 00:26:00.880
<v Speaker 2>Clipper stoff does not stop over the next two days.

400
00:26:01.880 --> 00:26:04.759
<v Speaker 2>I'll be reviewing the postgame audio from Coach Lou tomorrow

401
00:26:05.880 --> 00:26:09.079
<v Speaker 2>on Clippers Talk right back here. I'm gonna be stewing

402
00:26:09.119 --> 00:26:12.920
