Not great? 21 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 4: So far it has not looked good. Still no bell 22 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:17,120 and no Kawhi, what you're gonna talk about? It's not 23 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:21,359 looking great.

So that's that's where I'm 26 00:01:27,079 --> 00:01:27,680 at right now. 27 00:01:27,799 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 1: You were pretty bully on them the other day on 28 00:01:30,359 --> 00:01:33,079 the live stream for this upcoming road trip which we 29 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:33,920 are going to talk about. 30 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:37,480 Speaker 3: Adam, how are you let's get to the road. We'll 31 00:01:37,519 --> 00:01:42,599 be fine. No, did I put a perspective how bad 32 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:43,920 it is to start three and seven? 33 00:01:44,439 --> 00:01:45,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, go for it, dude. 34 00:01:45,519 --> 00:01:47,719 Speaker 3: We don't want that negativity or truth. 35 00:01:47,959 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 1: I mean, we're gonna there's not a lot of positive 36 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:52,400 things to talk about before we get into the game 37 00:01:52,439 --> 00:01:53,799 against the Nuggets, So go for. 38 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 3: Say they want tomorrow. 39 00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:57,519 Speaker 2: Yeah. 40 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 3: So they won and then they went four and three, 41 00:02:01,079 --> 00:02:03,560 which would be a great successful road trip. 42 00:02:04,799 --> 00:02:09,879 Speaker 5: They would still be eight and ten okay after eighteen games, 43 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:15,520 all right, and it's gonna be hard to achieve that. 44 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 3: So that's where we're at. 45 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, I know there's a lot of people upset about 46 00:02:21,479 --> 00:02:27,360 a lot of things. Beale is hurt, which has led 47 00:02:27,439 --> 00:02:30,879 to Colin starting not really how we wanted it to happen. 48 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,560 But I mean Beale took a charge in the game 49 00:02:34,599 --> 00:02:36,560 against the Blazers on that flared. 50 00:02:36,319 --> 00:02:38,479 Speaker 2: Up fifty years ago. 51 00:02:41,159 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: It's a been a tough start to the Bradley Beal era. 52 00:02:45,719 --> 00:02:47,039 Speaker 2: Availability wise. 53 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, Suns fans are in our messages and telling us 54 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,479 we told you and all these things right now. It sucks. 55 00:02:57,599 --> 00:03:01,159 It's unfortunates. 56 00:03:01,319 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 4: I just didn't think you were very smart, so I 57 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:03,719 didn't listen. 58 00:03:06,159 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 1: Sorry, Yeah, let's bring more conversable. 59 00:03:12,199 --> 00:03:15,199 Speaker 4: Sorry, I've seen you all before, and uh I had 60 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,560 reasons for not believing you your word. 61 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 2: At face value. One thing that got me worried has 62 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:25,199 me worried one? 63 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, one of the one of I believe about one 64 00:03:28,759 --> 00:03:31,719 thing that interview he did after the game against the 65 00:03:31,759 --> 00:03:34,479 Suns where he was like they didn't let me be 66 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,520 that guy or something like that, and he was like, 67 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:39,639 when's the last time I took fourteen shots for the Suns? 68 00:03:39,639 --> 00:03:42,919 And it was like, Dude, there were some people missing 69 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:48,039 from this lineup, and I think you're not going to 70 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:49,639 necessarily be your version. 71 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:53,439 Speaker 2: Of that guy here. When if I should also say and. 72 00:03:53,439 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 1: We then do do? 73 00:03:56,199 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 3: It? 74 00:03:56,479 --> 00:03:57,719 Speaker 1: Just feels. 75 00:03:58,719 --> 00:04:01,319 Speaker 2: Even one available or I guess. 76 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 3: Yeah. Aside from the fact that like, if he's coming 77 00:04:07,159 --> 00:04:10,520 back from injury and he's on a mint restriction, should 78 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,960 he be in the starting lineup? Some people are already saying, well, 79 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,360 this could be a blessing in disguise that they have 80 00:04:16,439 --> 00:04:20,240 to figure things out without him, and when he does 81 00:04:20,319 --> 00:04:23,079 come back, he won't be able to start. It's like, 82 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,800 I don't think any injuries going on right now could 83 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,000 be a blessing in disguise with the amount of guys 84 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,079 we got out in the lack of firepower we just 85 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:33,240 saw the other night. 86 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:36,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, injuries are never ideal. 87 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,519 Speaker 1: Uh, And also, well, it's just weird you have to 88 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:44,000 say that. You have to say that because, like Adam said, 89 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:45,480 like people are like, maybe it's going to change the 90 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:49,240 starting lineup. That's also not I don't think how that 91 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,639 would go down. I think they would give Biel more 92 00:04:51,759 --> 00:04:54,279 chances with the healthy or whatever version of a healthy 93 00:04:54,319 --> 00:04:57,279 starting lineup. About agreeing with that, it gets a little 94 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,040 more frustrating as each day goes on. 95 00:05:00,079 --> 00:05:04,319 Speaker 2: Did see Colins start the other night? 96 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:09,079 Speaker 1: The stat from Justin Rousseau is a positive starting lineup 97 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,360 of James hard and Chris Donne, Derek Jones, Junior, John 98 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:15,000 Collins and Vizizibots were plus fourteen and twenty one minutes. 99 00:05:15,959 --> 00:05:18,959 Tyler said he thought they did a good job, especially defensively. 100 00:05:19,079 --> 00:05:20,759 The blueprint of how we want to play with key 101 00:05:20,759 --> 00:05:23,920 guys being out is how we played in that first quarter. Well, 102 00:05:24,439 --> 00:05:26,480 key guys are going to be out for possibly a while. 103 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:31,800 As Tyler kind of mentioned about Brad Beal's possibility. 104 00:05:31,319 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 3: And maybe another positive He also said he's rolling with 105 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,680 John Collins for a while, And to me that seemed 106 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:41,759 independent of if Bradley Beal is back sooner than later, 107 00:05:41,879 --> 00:05:43,839 because they didn't even run the tests on him yet, 108 00:05:43,879 --> 00:05:47,399 and we I'm assuming he didn't know the extent or 109 00:05:47,439 --> 00:05:48,319 how long that. 110 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:51,319 Speaker 2: Could be the hurt. They gave him a hurt test. 111 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, they've played the old game of doctor operation. 112 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 2: Are you hurt? Are you good? 113 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 3: How's this feeling their knee? 114 00:06:03,199 --> 00:06:07,519 Speaker 1: Did that? The quote like a while had me confused 115 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,879 in a good way. I guess that's your point, Adam, 116 00:06:09,879 --> 00:06:12,800 of like, is this when everyone's healthy, does this count 117 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:13,959 as a while? 118 00:06:14,199 --> 00:06:18,079 Speaker 3: Or like that's how I interpreted it. The way you 119 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:22,360 said it was like, yeah, that's my guy. This was 120 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:26,639 part of the plan to eventually get here, and we're here. 121 00:06:27,199 --> 00:06:31,279 But I guess we'll see whenever they're healthy. 122 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,519 Speaker 2: It could be weeks from now. Unfortunately. 123 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, do you think Beal's out of the starting 124 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:39,720 lineup or do you think it's gonna be Derek Jones 125 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:44,199 Junior out of the starting lineup when everyone's healthy to 126 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:49,800 make room? Not like because I mean, yeah, I. 127 00:06:49,759 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 4: Think they're gonna they're gonna give it another run with 128 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:57,480 beal because you gotta try and you gotta hope that 129 00:06:58,319 --> 00:07:00,839 he can get some sort of rhythm momentum going. 130 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,399 Speaker 3: I think it depends how they're playing. They're gonna play 131 00:07:05,439 --> 00:07:08,480 moving forward. What if they do play well? What if 132 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,360 they do get on a winning streak and Bells still 133 00:07:11,399 --> 00:07:14,560 coming back on a ministerstriction? Do you then disrupt the 134 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:22,759 starting lineup that has been playing well? I would not know. Well, 135 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,639 the way things have been going, That's that's logical. 136 00:07:27,319 --> 00:07:29,839 Speaker 2: Look, Adam, why is the wheel all round it? 137 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:32,199 Speaker 1: There's so many other shapes out. 138 00:07:32,079 --> 00:07:33,319 Speaker 2: There, it could be anywhere. 139 00:07:34,959 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, they are certainly experimenting with new shapes, uh and 140 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,720 ways to play basketball. 141 00:07:46,839 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. 142 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: The injuries are so fright hard and said it after 143 00:07:50,199 --> 00:07:53,720 last night. We haven't had any consistency, but also we've 144 00:07:53,759 --> 00:07:56,160 seen no consistency to start seasons before. And I guess 145 00:07:56,199 --> 00:08:01,319 it's felt better than this, right, you don't feel mad 146 00:08:01,399 --> 00:08:05,759 enough about this start? Zoos seemed like he was very 147 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:06,759 sad last night. 148 00:08:07,399 --> 00:08:09,759 Speaker 4: Yeah, they're like that's the thing, Like it feels like 149 00:08:09,839 --> 00:08:12,279 more like downtrodden or or whatever. 150 00:08:12,439 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 1: Like I'm just. 151 00:08:13,879 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 4: Not seeing a lot of like fire in these some 152 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,480 of these locker room interviews, especially like I don't know 153 00:08:18,519 --> 00:08:21,040 guys like Harden or even Zoo who has been with 154 00:08:21,079 --> 00:08:23,360 the team long enough to be a vocal leader like I, 155 00:08:24,199 --> 00:08:27,439 did they realize that? Like I just wonder sometimes, like 156 00:08:27,519 --> 00:08:30,040 do they see the standings? Do they like, do they 157 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,159 understand how bad this is? Do you think they're just 158 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,120 shell shocked because they're messing up simple stuff? They've all 159 00:08:36,159 --> 00:08:39,279 said it right, like they've all been like the stuff 160 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:40,480 that we're doing is. 161 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 3: Like we forgetting Yeah, like you can't remember plays apparently, are. 162 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 2: They just like are we just like. 163 00:08:52,759 --> 00:08:55,639 Speaker 4: They played so many games collectively that they're just like, 164 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:56,679 I don't know the next one. 165 00:08:56,679 --> 00:09:00,039 Speaker 3: I guess Harden didn't zop to the media after the 166 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,559 second loss to Phoenix that could indicate he was mad. 167 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:07,159 It beats the Zubats. He wears his heart honest sleeve. 168 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:09,919 His emotions were there. You could see it last night, 169 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:14,000 and seems like there was accountability taken by him for 170 00:09:14,159 --> 00:09:18,559 what's going on. I don't know, I don't know exactly 171 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,320 what I want to see. None of that stuff matters, 172 00:09:20,399 --> 00:09:23,399 like get out there and perform on the court. 173 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:29,919 Speaker 1: And it can really only go you would think, I 174 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:31,759 mean there's some room for it to go down. But 175 00:09:31,919 --> 00:09:36,320 like defensively, the team, it's hard to be worse right now. 176 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,799 Stat wise, defensively, teams are shooting forty from three their 177 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:43,240 twenty fifth and defensive rating they're thirtieth or turnover percentage 178 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,679 on offense, which messes up the defense, all while being 179 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,519 twenty fourth of strength of schedule. So it's not like 180 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:50,559 we're playing some. 181 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,159 Speaker 2: I don't know this. 182 00:09:55,399 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 3: This is the issue. They got off to the worst 183 00:09:58,759 --> 00:10:03,000 start during the easy part of the schedule, and everybody 184 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,879 coming in maybe except for them, knew that this was 185 00:10:05,919 --> 00:10:09,360 the softest, most favorable part of the schedule, and they 186 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:11,960 didn't take advantage of it. And it's only gonna get 187 00:10:12,039 --> 00:10:12,559 much tougher. 188 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:17,159 Speaker 4: Not only didn't take advantage of they're looking at the 189 00:10:17,279 --> 00:10:21,320 play three hundred ball. 190 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:27,440 Speaker 1: The depth UH is shallower than we thought. Also already 191 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:31,519 that's on display with kind of Chris Paul seemingly out. 192 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 2: Of the rotation. 193 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,039 Speaker 3: Yeah, we got to be honest, like a lot of 194 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,279 the stuff that we were super high on in the 195 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:41,320 offseason just hasn't come to fruition. The idea was you 196 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,759 don't have James out there. Cool. Now we got CP 197 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,559 three running the show for fifteen minutes a night. We're 198 00:10:46,639 --> 00:10:49,679 good like that hasn't happened at all. 199 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:50,919 Speaker 1: How he is. 200 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 3: Brook Lopez has been alright. I don't think he's been horrible. 201 00:10:57,519 --> 00:11:00,320 He's definitely had his moments, but not as good as 202 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:09,159 we had hoped. John Collins, when everybody else is actually 203 00:11:09,159 --> 00:11:12,039 doing their part, he's good. He can't make up for 204 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,879 everybody else's mistakes. He's not mobile enough to do all 205 00:11:14,919 --> 00:11:17,679 that stuff. Like. He's had some really good blocks at 206 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:19,960 the rim when everybody else is handling their business and 207 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,679 he can actually just protect it and not have to 208 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:28,039 worry about guarding two guys beats the zoo bots. Also 209 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:32,279 with the starters underwhelming, so far, it's been better, but 210 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,559 still not enough. So how do you get by when 211 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:39,200 this many guys are underperforming at once? If you told 212 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,039 me all these guys would be bad at once, then 213 00:11:41,039 --> 00:11:44,519 maybe maybe they'd be four and four or four four 214 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:46,519 and five, I should say, or four and six instead 215 00:11:46,519 --> 00:11:51,919 of three and seven. I still would even Yeah, being 216 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:53,799 told all that, I still wuldn't believe three and seven. 217 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, I would say, will kind of what you were saying, 218 00:11:59,279 --> 00:12:03,559 it's just like all the bad, all the bad stuff 219 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,720 is happening at once. All the stuff that was like, well, 220 00:12:05,759 --> 00:12:08,440 it'll be good unless this happens to this guy. We 221 00:12:08,519 --> 00:12:11,600 had the functional depth on paper. Again, we love the 222 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:15,840 clippers on paper sometimes more than on the court. Uh. 223 00:12:15,919 --> 00:12:20,159 And it's I mean, shout out to Cam Christy, love 224 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,639 that he's getting minutes. Wish it was under better circumstances. 225 00:12:23,759 --> 00:12:27,120 But like, do we think Bogey? I guess I'm like 226 00:12:27,159 --> 00:12:29,919 where he has to. I know everyone has to be better, 227 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,360 but like Bogey's in a funk right now? 228 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:38,519 Speaker 3: How many games he played three? Like he got you 229 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,159 got DMP, the first couple of games he got d MP, 230 00:12:41,279 --> 00:12:43,320 the last couple of games, how many games he played? 231 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:47,559 Or he hasn't been good. But it's like, so are 232 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:50,120 we going away from Bogey and CP three already? 233 00:12:50,759 --> 00:12:53,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's played four games, started two of them. 234 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,679 Speaker 3: I just I didn't expect him to go away from 235 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,639 both those guys this soon. But I I will say this. 236 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,840 Everybody bitches all the time that coach won't play young guys, 237 00:13:03,879 --> 00:13:05,679 and now he is. They're like, wait a second, what 238 00:13:05,759 --> 00:13:10,679 about Bogey C three? Well they've been bad. I don't 239 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,639 blame him trying something else. And Cam has been decent 240 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:14,639 overall so far. 241 00:13:15,039 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, Cam's been all right for I'm sure a guy 242 00:13:19,399 --> 00:13:22,519 who didn't expect to play this much this early, right will, Like, 243 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:23,480 you can't imagine that Cam. 244 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:26,279 Speaker 2: Christy was like, I'll probably be playing first. Do you think. 245 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:33,919 Speaker 3: Cam is twenty years of age barely? I think yeah, 246 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:38,039 and he I looks like a live body out there 247 00:13:38,039 --> 00:13:39,919 with Pop. I know he went one of seven last 248 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,679 night and missed some gimmes on some floaters, but I 249 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,039 did wonder because they just don't have the shock creation. 250 00:13:47,159 --> 00:13:50,960 If CP three and Bogie aren't able to be more 251 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,879 functional out there, how do you get by. It's back 252 00:13:54,919 --> 00:13:57,000 to the same thing if you don't have Kawhi Leonard 253 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,320 and you don't have Bial. There's way too much much 254 00:14:00,399 --> 00:14:03,080 being asked of James Harden, way too much. 255 00:14:03,279 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 1: I like that tweet you had of like him holding 256 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:11,799 up the world. I don't get why we keep having 257 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:15,600 to do this, right, like, we just keep having. 258 00:14:15,399 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 3: Him because we thought CP three was going to be 259 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,480 good still, this was not supposed to be a problem. 260 00:14:21,919 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 4: Like we also thought that we were going to get 261 00:14:24,759 --> 00:14:28,039 some of Norm's production out of Bradley Beal Like, I 262 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,320 mean not some. 263 00:14:33,039 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 3: Video said he can do what he does and some. 264 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,039 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean we said it. 265 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:43,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, on paper. 266 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:44,279 Speaker 1: He can't. 267 00:14:44,759 --> 00:14:46,519 Speaker 3: What we didn't know is he'd be on a minute 268 00:14:46,559 --> 00:14:48,200 restriction to start the season. 269 00:14:48,279 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 2: Right and not be able to take charges. I played that. 270 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:52,840 He was like, I'd do it again if I was 271 00:14:52,879 --> 00:14:55,840 in that situation again. I'm like, please, don't man, you 272 00:14:56,279 --> 00:14:59,200 like you was always getting bad and around. 273 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 1: He was fine, yeah, nor, Yeah, that's trip. 274 00:15:04,399 --> 00:15:07,879 Speaker 2: I don't know. At least we play the Nuggets tomorrow. 275 00:15:10,759 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's something, you know, you know what we need. 276 00:15:13,879 --> 00:15:16,200 We need a performance like the Nuggets gave us a 277 00:15:16,279 --> 00:15:18,559 couple of years ago when they had nobody but Reggie 278 00:15:18,639 --> 00:15:21,639 Jackson and DJ out there. Yes, that's what we need. 279 00:15:21,679 --> 00:15:26,759 The reversal of the Clippers rising to the occasion with guys. 280 00:15:26,639 --> 00:15:29,799 Speaker 1: Anything else on these first ten games before we get 281 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:34,320 into the Nuggets, and then talking about this upcoming kind 282 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,279 of hellish road trip. 283 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 3: Uh did not think. I did not think Kwi would 284 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,519 be out five straight games now, Yeah, did not did 285 00:15:45,559 --> 00:15:46,440 not see that coming. 286 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 2: Hope he's on the trip. 287 00:15:48,799 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 3: Uh, he's not on the trip. I mean, my god. 288 00:15:53,799 --> 00:15:57,639 Speaker 2: If he's not on the trip, happy hour lives are canceled. 289 00:15:57,639 --> 00:16:01,879 It's sad Hours, no happening. Pack it in. Drinks are 290 00:16:01,879 --> 00:16:09,399 twice the price at sad Hour.

If you're listening to us, thanks. 294 00:16:17,919 --> 00:16:21,200 If you'd like to watch us talk about this Clippers 295 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:25,279 team in agony, you can find us at YouTube dot 296 00:16:25,279 --> 00:16:29,720 collelish Act Clippers Podcast, Nuggets and the ROADSI Truck coming 297 00:16:29,759 --> 00:16:30,759 up in three to two one. 298 00:16:31,399 --> 00:16:34,279 Speaker 4: All right, welcome back into Clips and Dip. We've talked 299 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:36,559 about the state of the Clippers currently at three and seven. 300 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,440 They are facing the Denver Nuggets as they hunt for 301 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:43,519 an elusive fourth win. Even if they can't find it, 302 00:16:43,639 --> 00:16:46,399 they will be looking good because it is City Edition night. 303 00:16:47,559 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 2: Yes, did you guys? Do you guys like the jerseys? 304 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,399 You like the jerseys? Adam, You're a black and orange 305 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:53,559 jay U. 306 00:16:53,879 --> 00:16:56,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm big on the color of orange, so I 307 00:16:56,320 --> 00:17:00,799 know I'm probably the minority here, but I'm fan of them. 308 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,279 Speaker 2: Will your thoughts? I like him. 309 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,640 Speaker 1: Some of the merch looks a little dicey, but I 310 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:11,160 love the court. The court is cool and I'm sure 311 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:15,680 the Jerseys will look good on court injuries. Bradley Beal 312 00:17:15,799 --> 00:17:19,960 is out, Kawhi Leonard is out, Jamal Murray's having a 313 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:20,880 great start to the season. 314 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 2: He's day to day, so is Aaron Gordon. I don't 315 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:25,799 know if their injury report came out yet. 316 00:17:27,039 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 3: They're playing tonight, so they're playing Sacramento. Both those guys 317 00:17:30,279 --> 00:17:33,200 are supposed to be playing tonight. The best thing that 318 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:37,480 could happen is Sacramento makes them earn it, and we'll 319 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:39,759 see if both those players are available for a back 320 00:17:39,759 --> 00:17:41,880 to back, if they're questionable or probable tonight. 321 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,359 Speaker 1: You know, yeah, the Kings are. They're about to have 322 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:49,039 a fire sale shock fire. So I am shocked that 323 00:17:49,039 --> 00:17:53,079 that roster's not working. So we're probably playing what you're 324 00:17:53,079 --> 00:18:01,319 saying is going to be a fully healthy Nuggets team, Adam. 325 00:17:58,759 --> 00:18:04,200 Speaker 3: I don't know. We'll see. It's possible that the Kings 326 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:08,559 find a way to make it interesting and make those 327 00:18:08,559 --> 00:18:11,039 guys play eavy minutes. But yeah, who knows. 328 00:18:11,799 --> 00:18:14,640 Speaker 1: The Nuggets will either be eight and two or seven 329 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:16,759 and three when we play them tomorrow. 330 00:18:18,599 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 3: Here's Russell Rustbrook revenge a game by the way tonight. 331 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:24,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, go for it he can shoot threes. 332 00:18:24,319 --> 00:18:28,400 Speaker 1: Now, just some top line stats for the Nuggets second 333 00:18:28,559 --> 00:18:32,160 net rating second and field goal percentage first, and assists 334 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:34,839 per game second, in defensive rebounds per game and eighth 335 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:37,960 and defensive rebound percentage, So you know it's real. Teams 336 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:40,640 are only shooting thirty percent from three versus them so far. 337 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:47,359 Speaker 2: I don't feel great about this one. Just personally, will 338 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,079 how are you feeling about this matchup? 339 00:18:50,559 --> 00:18:52,119 Speaker 4: As I said, if I was a betting man, I 340 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,200 would not bet on the Clippers getting their fourth wan. 341 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:03,680 Speaker 2: Maybe excited is not the right word. 342 00:19:05,039 --> 00:19:06,559 Speaker 3: I mean think it's gonna be the same. 343 00:19:07,039 --> 00:19:09,519 Speaker 1: No, I'm just interested to see them play against this 344 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,559 Nuggets team. I think it'll be the same. Yeah, he 345 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,200 can't change it, right, he said they were good. 346 00:19:16,319 --> 00:19:19,279 Speaker 3: No, I wouldn't be surprised if CP three or Bogue 347 00:19:19,279 --> 00:19:24,799 got minutes, but the starting lineup should be the same. See, 348 00:19:24,839 --> 00:19:25,720 I wouldn't feel good. 349 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:27,880 Speaker 2: Things have gone horribly wrong. 350 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:33,039 Speaker 3: Bro, things have gone horribly wrong. They need another playmaker 351 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:35,319 out there, like last night was so hard to watch 352 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:38,440 offense in the second half. Yeah, I would have. Honestly, 353 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:42,799 I would try him. We're we're now, we're ten games 354 00:19:42,799 --> 00:19:46,559 in like, we're just done with CP three. His last 355 00:19:46,559 --> 00:19:47,960 stint was actually probably his. 356 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:50,799 Speaker 2: Best against the nine minutes against the. 357 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:55,039 Speaker 3: Thunder, Yeah, or the Phoenix game one was it? Yeah, 358 00:19:55,160 --> 00:20:00,440 I can't remember. You can't like there are some guys 359 00:20:00,519 --> 00:20:03,920 given the injuries right now, you can't just give up 360 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:05,559 on ten games in. 361 00:20:07,039 --> 00:20:07,319 Speaker 2: Yeah. 362 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:09,279 Speaker 1: I thought it was interesting when Ty was like, we're 363 00:20:09,279 --> 00:20:13,039 gonna the rotation is gonna be cut down from eleven 364 00:20:13,079 --> 00:20:15,000 to ten. Were fully healthy and that was why we 365 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,440 still had guys out, And I'm like, well, if guys 366 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:19,720 are out, maybe the rotation should be. 367 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:20,319 Speaker 2: A little longer. 368 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:26,359 Speaker 1: Hey, guys, eight guys, we're basically at eight. 369 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 3: I was shot to see Kobe last night. He played 370 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:30,839 all right. 371 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:37,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, guy's got a chance to get into this ever 372 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:39,200 expanding and shrinking rotation. 373 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:42,279 Speaker 2: He kind of defies physics this Clipper's rotation a little bit. 374 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:45,880 Speaker 3: You have to find another player that can gain an 375 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,920 advantage on a defense and not just have it be 376 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:54,799 James Harden. I saw it in the preseason from CP three. 377 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:59,400 He's looked like he was moving better than yeah, Bubby. Actually, 378 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:01,640 the movement was looking decent with the ball in his 379 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:03,480 hands bringing it into the front court. The last time 380 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:04,119 we saw him. 381 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:06,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, he looks a little more confident. He has some 382 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,240 chemistry with Zoo. He needs help right now too. 383 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 3: It's either that you better make a move, because. 384 00:21:16,799 --> 00:21:22,599 Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, what's the move? Bring rust back from 385 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:23,160 the Kings? 386 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,680 Speaker 3: Kean Ellis? I don't know how much he can handle 387 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:31,079 the Rock. 388 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:32,640 Speaker 2: I don't know if that's the move. 389 00:21:33,279 --> 00:21:34,880 Speaker 3: Malcolm Rogden out of retirement. 390 00:21:36,079 --> 00:21:37,920 Speaker 1: Hey I already did one time Clipper. 391 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:39,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. 392 00:21:39,319 --> 00:21:47,039 Speaker 1: Uh, can we even look at opponent to opponent like 393 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,359 pregame stuff or as they're too much broken with the 394 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,160 Clippers to fix that, you know what I mean? Like 395 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,480 does the opponent were playing necessarily matter? Like it's hard 396 00:21:55,519 --> 00:21:56,920 to go team by team be like, oh, if the 397 00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,279 Clippers do this against this team, they'll beat them because 398 00:21:59,279 --> 00:22:01,839 that's their weakness. Cause Clippers can't do anything very good 399 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:05,400 right now. So it's like the issues are so holistic 400 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:06,000 that it's. 401 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:12,880 Speaker 3: Like, yeah, there's no way to this is our strength 402 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,160 versus their weakness? There is no strength, right. 403 00:22:15,039 --> 00:22:16,119 Speaker 1: No, right? 404 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,799 Speaker 3: And they don't have much of a weakness. 405 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:21,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, Like I was like looking at the schedule and 406 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,039 I was like I don't even know like what we're 407 00:22:23,079 --> 00:22:28,880 good at, Like I can't synthesize from watching these games 408 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:32,160 in the stats like what we're necessarily killing it at. 409 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:36,119 Speaker 3: I will say this, the Clippers were an outlier, and 410 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,799 I mean an outlier shooting before, but it's away from 411 00:22:38,799 --> 00:22:42,000 what that gave last night. Crachy going eight of ten 412 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:43,799 from three is insane. 413 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:48,160 Speaker 1: That makes no sense. But that stuff happens. That's why 414 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:51,319 you got to take care of the other business it does. 415 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,759 Speaker 3: Missing seven free throws from the third straight game is awful. 416 00:22:54,839 --> 00:22:57,440 In a game you lose by three, what are we 417 00:22:57,559 --> 00:22:59,440 good at? 418 00:23:00,519 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 1: We don't have an identity. 419 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 3: I mean the idea is if done and DJ are starting, 420 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:11,119 they're gonna The defense has to come around. It has 421 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:14,079 to in the giving up only one oh five last night, 422 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:19,720 even with one guy going off like that, that's that's 423 00:23:19,759 --> 00:23:21,319 something something. 424 00:23:21,599 --> 00:23:28,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, And we held the only eleven turnovers, that's good. 425 00:23:28,319 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 2: We held the Warriors to sub one hundred, that was good. 426 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:36,880 It's just like they can't get out of their number. Guys, 427 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,440 remember that when we lost and held them. When we 428 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:41,440 start seventy nine points. 429 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:41,799 Speaker 3: A good first half. 430 00:23:41,839 --> 00:23:47,039 Speaker 2: Man, man, some of these are brutal. 431 00:23:47,839 --> 00:23:50,799 Speaker 1: So look, okay, so the Nuggets are tomorrow. I don't 432 00:23:50,839 --> 00:23:54,519 really have a bunch of analogy. They're a juggernaut right now, 433 00:23:54,559 --> 00:23:55,880 so we have to hope they're tired. 434 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,680 Speaker 3: You know what would be great zoobots has gotten up 435 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:02,000 for game against Jokis before he had like a thirty 436 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:04,559 four point game or like it was his high before 437 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:06,480 last year against Phoenix, and then they went away from 438 00:24:06,519 --> 00:24:09,200 him and then blew a twenty three point lead. Maybe 439 00:24:09,519 --> 00:24:13,200 they just spam Jokicic more who only got ten shots, 440 00:24:13,319 --> 00:24:16,359 or spam excuse me, and beats zubots more who only 441 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:19,680 got ten shots yesterday, because that matchup against Jokis he 442 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:20,519 seems to get up for. 443 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 1: And it's right second night in a row for Jokic. 444 00:24:23,319 --> 00:24:24,960 Theoretically he should be tired. 445 00:24:25,799 --> 00:24:28,559 Speaker 3: So we've been talking about it. Beats the Zubots, you know, 446 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:32,279 being a little up and down and not being as 447 00:24:32,279 --> 00:24:35,559 engaged as we would like. Maybe this is the opponent 448 00:24:35,599 --> 00:24:37,240 that at least brings out the best in Big Zoo. 449 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:38,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. I like that. 450 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 3: I'm looking and digging hard for fighting. 451 00:24:46,039 --> 00:24:50,839 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, Well, who's your player of the game. We 452 00:24:50,839 --> 00:24:53,480 can pick anybody. We're terrible right now, so everybody's on 453 00:24:53,519 --> 00:24:54,640 the table for player of the game. 454 00:24:56,640 --> 00:25:02,160 Speaker 3: Did we get two no, we don't get but like, combined, 455 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:03,799 they might put together a decent sound. 456 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 2: All right, yeah, you can pick your two. 457 00:25:05,559 --> 00:25:08,039 Speaker 1: You can pick your best two man lineup for the 458 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:14,240 game or your best your player of the game. Yeah, 459 00:25:14,599 --> 00:25:15,160 hold up, but. 460 00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:17,599 Speaker 3: We can't do too guys, that's stupid idea. 461 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 2: Okay, so we got hardened zoo. 462 00:25:21,039 --> 00:25:23,079 Speaker 1: I like that least one of them has to hit 463 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:28,599 on this bet, right. Harden has been so tired to 464 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:30,839 end games. And I'm not saying that as a knock 465 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:35,240 at all. I'm just it's so hard to walk. He's 466 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:36,480 got to play so much basketball. 467 00:25:36,759 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 3: You mean the spinning turnover where he just. 468 00:25:40,599 --> 00:25:44,799 Speaker 1: Looking tired, dude, And he is someone who obviously will 469 00:25:44,839 --> 00:25:46,759 if you said this early the episode where it's like 470 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,559 maybe they've just played so much basketball that all runs together. 471 00:25:49,839 --> 00:25:52,119 He's played so much basketball, and for him to be 472 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:56,319 so visibly tired and like frustrated by being tired, I 473 00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:58,960 can't imagine what it's just gotta hurt. 474 00:25:59,319 --> 00:26:02,880 Speaker 3: Like. He was also great last night, like and has 475 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:06,680 been pretty good so far this season. Honestly, you look 476 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:09,759 good numbers. I posted this earlier. How are they three 477 00:26:09,839 --> 00:26:12,519 and seven getting this production from James Harden? To start 478 00:26:12,519 --> 00:26:16,279 the season. That's so bad he had nineteen in the fourth. 479 00:26:16,519 --> 00:26:22,079 Speaker 1: Like, alright, I'm who's your two man lineup or one 480 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:24,160 player of the game. Pick I'm gonna have like the 481 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:25,079 only person left for. 482 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:31,759 Speaker 3: Me, give me done and DJ give me the give 483 00:26:31,799 --> 00:26:32,799 me the shutdown corner? 484 00:26:34,279 --> 00:26:36,799 Speaker 2: All right? Uh oh, I'm going John Collins. 485 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:40,200 Speaker 1: Then I'm only picking one and I'm going John Collins, 486 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,640 and he's gonna have twenty. 487 00:26:42,319 --> 00:26:46,200 Speaker 2: Two and we'll need it. 488 00:26:46,599 --> 00:26:47,160 Speaker 3: I can see it. 489 00:26:47,279 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 2: We'll lose my eight, but we'll look good. 490 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:53,279 Speaker 3: That's strong. 491 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,400 Speaker 2: Let's get an upswing, you know, Let's get. 492 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,799 Speaker 3: A that's some momentum going into the road trip in 493 00:26:58,839 --> 00:26:59,559 a point loss. 494 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, what is it? We had haunting wins and there 495 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:06,680 what was our encouraging losses. Let's get an encouraging loss 496 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:08,960 on the books. And that's how low things are right now, 497 00:27:09,039 --> 00:27:11,480 is let's get let's get a loss where it's like, 498 00:27:11,839 --> 00:27:15,960 sure we lost, but at least we looked pretty good. 499 00:27:18,039 --> 00:27:20,279 Speaker 3: I don't know, man, Some may say moral victories. 500 00:27:20,559 --> 00:27:23,599 Speaker 1: Sure, it's either that or a blowout. The road trip 501 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:28,680 is at the MAVs, a back to back against the 502 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:32,119 Celtics and the seventy six ers. Then at the Magic, 503 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,839 then a back to back against the Hornets and the Calves, 504 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:41,319 and then ending at Lakers. Pretty brutal travel wise here 505 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:44,200 two back to backs in the seven game road. 506 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:45,599 Speaker 3: Well, where's the Lakers game. 507 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:48,559 Speaker 2: At Cryptoco Arena? 508 00:27:50,079 --> 00:27:51,079 Speaker 3: Okay, not that far. 509 00:27:51,759 --> 00:27:57,039 Speaker 1: They're still flying from Inglewood. What's your hopes on this 510 00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:58,200 roadship record wise? 511 00:27:58,759 --> 00:28:08,839 Speaker 2: Will oh Man? Seven games? What do you think?

Tonight, 604 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:24,559 which could make them a little bit tired on the 605 00:33:24,559 --> 00:33:27,039 second hand of a back to back into Adil tomorrow 606 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:28,480 in the Denver Nuggets. 607 00:33:29,599 --> 00:33:32,839 Speaker 1: There we go, make them tired.
