So that's where we're at. 10 00:00:44,399 --> 00:00:49,320 The Clippers continue to dominate a Viza. Zu Bots is back. Yes, 11 00:00:49,759 --> 00:00:54,640 zoo is back, which is fantastic. Kawhi Leonard is playing 12 00:00:54,679 --> 00:00:56,960 some of the best basketball over the last six games 13 00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:02,240 of anyone who's ever played professional basketball, which always feels good. 14 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,359 But yeah, the big news of the day is zoo 15 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:08,120 Bots is back. Eric Boe, Happy New Year, buddy. I 16 00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:09,920 hope everyone is having a happy New Year. I don't 17 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,519 think I said that, so sorry about that. Will and 18 00:01:12,599 --> 00:01:16,959 Adam might join unclear on that. Adam works a lot, 19 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,239 and Will's outside in the rain. I don't know what 20 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:23,480 he's doing. I do know that Eric boy is making 21 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:29,439 fantastic positive Clippers drawings. We got Chuck the Condor doing 22 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:31,200 one step at a time. I'm gonna pull that up 23 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:36,719 actually because I love My favorite part of Eric's positive 24 00:01:36,799 --> 00:01:40,760 drawings is that there are there's still such an uh 25 00:01:41,359 --> 00:01:47,439 an era of uh demented pain, which is being a 26 00:01:47,439 --> 00:01:50,840 Clippers fan. So yeah, Clippers win one step at a time, baby, 27 00:01:51,519 --> 00:01:55,400 We're getting there. A Viatza zoo bots is back. Yes, 28 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:59,159 So this was we're gonna talk about Kawhi for sure, 29 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,400 and we're gonna talk about Yannick, and we're going to 30 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,359 talk about John Collins, who's been good. And then I 31 00:02:04,439 --> 00:02:07,680 have a new segment called Slop Fridays, which is stupid 32 00:02:07,719 --> 00:02:12,639 Clippers news, and the Clippers play the Celtics tomorrow. But yeah, 33 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:18,080 so trouser J Slacks with a fair I had the 34 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,120 same thought of already. Okay, it was from several weeks 35 00:02:21,159 --> 00:02:26,159 and that's now two weeks. If he's good to go, 36 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,840 that's great. They don't they don't have a reason to 37 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,639 rush him back. They've won six in a row, so 38 00:02:32,759 --> 00:02:35,879 I don't think they're rushing, you know, Like, it's not 39 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,919 like the Clippers have They've been the opposite of how 40 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:43,439 they've been so I don't think they're rushing him back 41 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:50,599 because there's not like a reason to Alex Webb, I'm 42 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:54,680 sorry that your wife missed, Zuo. Just go to another game. 43 00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:01,879 Problem solved. That's really funny. Yes, Zoo is back. We'll 44 00:03:01,879 --> 00:03:05,400 see you know how that goes. But it's great news. 45 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:10,240 The Clippers get back to borderline full strength. Bogey's still 46 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:14,439 out for indefinitely, which is brutal, but yeah, we got 47 00:03:14,479 --> 00:03:19,520 motivated Zoo, which is good to see. We have a 48 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,520 very motivated Kawhi right now. The Clipper's got a really 49 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:26,960 gross win yesterday that could have been like the worst 50 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,360 loss of one of the worst losses of the season, 51 00:03:30,159 --> 00:03:33,800 but Kawhi Leonard had forty five points and continues to 52 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,520 put the team on his back. The last six games 53 00:03:36,599 --> 00:03:39,960 Kawhi Leonard has played basketball, He's averaging thirty nine points, 54 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,599 eight and a half boards, four assists, plus almost three 55 00:03:43,599 --> 00:03:49,800 steals and one and a half blocks. He is playing Hell, yes, 56 00:03:51,439 --> 00:03:59,400 Macy went to the game. That's fantastic. Kawhi is taking 57 00:03:59,439 --> 00:04:01,919 ten three a game over these last six games. He 58 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,199 took sixteen last night, which does skew it a little bit. 59 00:04:05,719 --> 00:04:08,159 But the reason this is important is because Kawhi is 60 00:04:08,159 --> 00:04:10,800 a thirty nine percent three point shooter, so why not 61 00:04:10,919 --> 00:04:14,280 lean into taking threes more? He usually he takes like 62 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:18,839 four point two threes per game for his career. Is 63 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:23,839 his average over the last or this season? Excu Sorry, 64 00:04:23,879 --> 00:04:30,040 he's taking seven, so he's almost doubling his career three 65 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:35,000 point attempt per game average, which is awesome. And again 66 00:04:36,079 --> 00:04:40,279 this is good. He's a really, really good shooter. Hope 67 00:04:40,319 --> 00:04:45,360 you are well to come, Quat boy. Yeah, give Kawhi 68 00:04:45,439 --> 00:04:48,759 more shot. Sixteen threes is insane, but you love to 69 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,439 see he's making other teams think about what he's gonna 70 00:04:51,439 --> 00:04:55,879 do on the perimeter more. He's drawing La Clippers film 71 00:04:55,879 --> 00:05:00,240 post of this, and these stills are just crazy. We're 72 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:01,959 going to talk about other things in a moment, but 73 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:04,680 we just need to appreciate what Kauhi is making other 74 00:05:04,759 --> 00:05:10,639 defenses do. There's three guys around him right here. It's 75 00:05:10,759 --> 00:05:14,519 just it's like, look at what this is doing for 76 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:19,360 everybody else too. Look at how it's incredible, how good 77 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,800 of basketball Kawhi Leonard is playing. And it wasn't just 78 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:25,279 the Jazz who were triple teaming him. I'm pretty sure 79 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,800 the Kings were too. They're terrible, but it's incredible what 80 00:05:28,879 --> 00:05:31,040 Kawi is doing. I know on the show we don't 81 00:05:31,079 --> 00:05:33,079 necessarily talk about him a ton, and I don't mean 82 00:05:33,079 --> 00:05:39,439 that in a weird way, but just it's fantastic to see. 83 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:43,439 Hope we get more of it because it's wonderful. Shout 84 00:05:43,439 --> 00:05:47,920 out to the Wall. Last night they had they had 85 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,040 signs with the Mormon wives on it that made me 86 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:55,040 laugh till Mary didn't know what they were and tweeted 87 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,000 out asking about it. So shout out, shout out to 88 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,680 the Wall. That was very funny. Yeah, Kawi is amazing. 89 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:08,120 These six games have been great. His threes, it's just unreal. 90 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:14,519 Sixteen is crazy. I think Adam tweeted this. He said 91 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:20,800 something like Kawhi had never had like what was the 92 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,519 forty point game stat? Kawhi had never had more than 93 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,360 two forty point games in the same season. He's had 94 00:06:26,519 --> 00:06:37,160 three in the last ten days. Just good shit, it's awesome. 95 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,639 All right, What else did I want to talk about? Yanik? 96 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:45,920 Everybody is loving Yannick Conan Niederhauser rightfully, so if you 97 00:06:45,959 --> 00:06:48,800 remember the live stream after he got drafted, Adam and 98 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:53,439 I were pretty hyped, but it's awesome just to see 99 00:06:53,519 --> 00:06:57,800 him and Kobe both putting good stuff on tape. I 100 00:06:57,879 --> 00:07:00,319 like seeing them on the court together. They like hustle play, 101 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:04,480 which is awesome. Uh, it's needed for this team. And 102 00:07:04,519 --> 00:07:07,879 when it's young guys doing it, I don't know that's great. 103 00:07:07,879 --> 00:07:12,360 Those are the guys who should be doing that, Janik. 104 00:07:12,519 --> 00:07:16,759 I mean, the athleticism is there, Obviously, his blocks are nuts, 105 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:23,560 He's every single dunk pops. His time's obviously gonna go 106 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:27,879 down with Zoo being back. So if this was the 107 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,959 last we see of him for a while, which I 108 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,959 hope it's not, but I understand not wanting to run 109 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:39,959 three centers, so that's kind of a shame. But he's 110 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,800 he's He's shown some awesome flashes this this rookie year. Again, 111 00:07:43,839 --> 00:07:45,639 I don't think this is the last we've seen from him, 112 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,560 but like with Zoo coming back, his minutes are probably 113 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:53,879 going to go down. Just that's how it goes. Adam 114 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:59,000 Oslin is joining the stream. Adam, how the hell are you? Buddy? 115 00:07:59,199 --> 00:08:02,120 How did Adam forre you hello? 116 00:08:03,439 --> 00:08:05,399 Speaker 2: This whole thing for us on me per se? 117 00:08:05,519 --> 00:08:07,399 Speaker 3: I don't know, I don't know it was me or 118 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,959 you My internet is pretty fast, but I got spectrum uscles, 119 00:08:09,959 --> 00:08:10,560 so you never know. 120 00:08:10,879 --> 00:08:13,959 Speaker 1: All right, well, smooth, nothing but smooth transitions. In twenty 121 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,680 twenty six, I was just talking how it's kind of 122 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:19,439 a shame that Yani's minutes are going to go down. 123 00:08:19,519 --> 00:08:22,000 I mean, it's great that Zoo is back, but he 124 00:08:22,319 --> 00:08:23,920 pet's had a good, fun rookie year. 125 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,879 Speaker 2: My guess is, I don't know. 126 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 3: It depends how this goes with Zoo obviously, and how 127 00:08:32,159 --> 00:08:37,759 smooth of a transition it is for him. It could 128 00:08:37,759 --> 00:08:41,879 be at some point, I don't know. Would Brook Lopez 129 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:46,879 be moved, possibly to make sure Yanix still gets minutes. 130 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,279 Speaker 1: If they're focused on the playoffs. I don't think they're 131 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,679 moving Brook right, like, if the idea is that they 132 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,200 want to compete in the playoffs. 133 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, it didn't go so well from last year in 134 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,679 the playoffs. That was the Indiana Pacers play at light 135 00:09:02,759 --> 00:09:04,360 speed and that was a bad. 136 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:05,799 Speaker 2: Matchup for him. 137 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I Yanni can still use more seasoning and marinating 138 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,399 in the G League and probably get some run here 139 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:13,840 and there. 140 00:09:13,919 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 2: Still, Yeah, regards it. 141 00:09:16,519 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 3: Brooke as a great teammate and Zuo's a great teammate, 142 00:09:20,759 --> 00:09:23,840 and if those guys First of all, they keep blowing 143 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:27,320 teams out, they keep smoking teams that could provide minutes. 144 00:09:28,159 --> 00:09:31,000 And they made this point, was it this past summer 145 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:32,759 or was it the end of last year where they 146 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:37,039 wanted to have the young guys up with the bigs 147 00:09:37,159 --> 00:09:40,559 more often, not the front court bigs, but just in 148 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:44,840 the big leagues, so they could practice more against those guys, 149 00:09:45,039 --> 00:09:47,320 be on the road, get a little bit more acclimated. 150 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,519 They thought maybe that would help with the maturity of 151 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:52,600 younger players and expedite that process. 152 00:09:52,639 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 2: So maybe he stays up with the team. 153 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,879 Speaker 1: Anyways, I yeah, and I like that logic too, because 154 00:09:56,879 --> 00:09:59,440 what Yanick the biggest thing he needs to work on 155 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,200 is Laws pointed it out. We've talked about it is 156 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,720 the defensive positioning. We know the athleticism is there. He's 157 00:10:05,799 --> 00:10:08,879 just a rookie center who's figuring out how to play 158 00:10:08,879 --> 00:10:13,720 defense in the NBA. So being at practice with you know, 159 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:19,960 Van Gundy and everyone else there, it's good. Also when 160 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,480 you think about that, Kawhi's talked about how good of 161 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,080 a listener Yanick is. He mentioned that last night that 162 00:10:24,159 --> 00:10:26,840 Yanick's like a good listener and all this other stuff. 163 00:10:26,919 --> 00:10:29,879 So he still has a chance to improve, which is good. 164 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,559 Speaker 3: Maybe when they play Utah again, they'll bring them out. 165 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,559 Because Kyle Philipowski and him got beef and we got 166 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,440 to see what Yick was made of and he's made 167 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,840 of sterner stuff. He showed that dog in him in 168 00:10:41,879 --> 00:10:42,279 that game. 169 00:10:44,159 --> 00:10:46,799 Speaker 1: Yeah. I was also just talking about it's cool to 170 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:51,399 see that Kobe and Yanick like to hustle. Do hustle 171 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,840 plays like they are active when they can be. 172 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,919 Speaker 3: And just exceptional character guys too. We had Kobe sand 173 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,879 on post game. I think it was after the Kawhi 174 00:11:02,919 --> 00:11:04,720 fifty five piece that Yanick had. 175 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:08,759 Speaker 2: Do you have sixteen in that game off the bench? Uh? 176 00:11:08,799 --> 00:11:11,000 He was more excited about that than anything. 177 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,279 Speaker 3: He was like, yeah, Yanick, let's go because it was 178 00:11:13,279 --> 00:11:16,360 his career high. These guys are rooting each other on. 179 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 2: It kind of. 180 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 3: Feels like remember when Sga and Erome Robinson were tight 181 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:23,879 when they first came over when they were drafted. You 182 00:11:23,919 --> 00:11:26,600 know those rookies, they can relate to one another. There's 183 00:11:26,639 --> 00:11:28,320 good camaraderie there. 184 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 2: H Yeah, They've been a breath of fresh air this season. 185 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 1: But Enski asking what's our thoughts on Yanick versus Philipowski. 186 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,720 Yanick won Yanick obviously. 187 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:41,519 Speaker 3: One what was Philipowski two for thirteen or something and 188 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:43,960 got blocked badly twice. 189 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: And well, and it's it's another thank you for bringing 190 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,200 asking that butt Inski. It's another thing that helps him too, 191 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,399 because Kawhi was saying he wants Yanick to be meaner. 192 00:11:51,519 --> 00:11:53,559 They they've talked about Yanick the same way they've talked 193 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,759 about Zoo way back in the day, which was he 194 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:58,759 needs to be meaner and he needs to understand how 195 00:11:58,799 --> 00:12:00,840 big he is, which is the same thing they said 196 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,600 about Zoo. So it's like he's got a guy you 197 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,759 can learn from on that. But yeah, no, it's I like, 198 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,559 it's good to see Yannick talking ship like that because 199 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,960 it was also none of it was out of bounds, 200 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,840 no pun intended, like, no one was like, you know, 201 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:18,840 flipping out or anything. It was good competitive shit talking. 202 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, and it raised his level of play with those 203 00:12:22,799 --> 00:12:26,120 two blocks after Bill Paisk he kind of knocked him 204 00:12:26,159 --> 00:12:27,320 to the ground on that rebound. 205 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, and Philip ask good by the way. Uh So 206 00:12:31,279 --> 00:12:34,519 that was that was really impressive from Yanick dog Ate. 207 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,960 Speaker 1: My homework is asking is Mormon Wives a show? So 208 00:12:38,039 --> 00:12:41,399 there's a I think there's a couple Mormon shows. There's 209 00:12:41,519 --> 00:12:44,679 Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, which is a show, and 210 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,000 that's who I believe was on the signs at the 211 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:48,519 game last night. 212 00:12:49,759 --> 00:12:50,759 Speaker 2: I had to learn that too. 213 00:12:52,759 --> 00:12:55,759 Speaker 1: Check it out. Uh, if you have absolutely nothing else 214 00:12:55,759 --> 00:13:00,559 to do, Adam, I was talking about how great Kawhia 215 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:04,519 has been, and I think the most interesting part so 216 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,600 far are the six games is he's taking ten threes 217 00:13:07,639 --> 00:13:11,120 a game. The sixteen last night throws it off too, 218 00:13:11,159 --> 00:13:14,039 but like he's taking a lot more threes. 219 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:17,440 Speaker 2: He said he was going to a couple of weeks ago. 220 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 3: He said, like, if I have to take one step 221 00:13:19,279 --> 00:13:21,840 back to take two step forward forward, if I have 222 00:13:21,879 --> 00:13:23,679 to miss twelve threes in a game, I'm just going 223 00:13:23,759 --> 00:13:24,120 to keep. 224 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 2: Putting him up. 225 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 3: And he has stressed that over a couple of weeks 226 00:13:28,519 --> 00:13:32,000 now and is happening. But I think it has just 227 00:13:32,159 --> 00:13:36,679 made him more aggressive overall, because he has this one 228 00:13:36,759 --> 00:13:39,440 element to his game that he's trying to improve where 229 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,080 he knows he has to be aggressive there and not 230 00:13:42,399 --> 00:13:45,480 overthink it and get those shots up to eventually get 231 00:13:45,519 --> 00:13:48,440 better with them. And so maybe it's kind of spread 232 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,679 throughout other parts of his game because the amount of 233 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:52,799 shots that he is getting up, Like, this is what 234 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,279 kind of what we've been talking about for years, Like 235 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,320 we want to see him get up twenty shots per game, 236 00:13:57,799 --> 00:14:01,080 and I think he's right there, just about there. Now 237 00:14:01,399 --> 00:14:04,399 after what's happened with his three forty point games in 238 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:08,320 the last ten days, it doesn't make any sense. 239 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:10,879 Speaker 2: It's incredible to watch. 240 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,879 Speaker 3: It's just well to me, it's you think about it, 241 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,039 this is a guy that works so hard so every 242 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:21,840 like you know, I don't know, fifty thousand shots he 243 00:14:21,919 --> 00:14:25,919 gets up in practice over from the last season to 244 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,559 the next season. He's becoming a better shooter because he's 245 00:14:29,639 --> 00:14:31,759 just getting more shots in over the years. 246 00:14:31,799 --> 00:14:33,159 Speaker 2: So he's refining his shot. 247 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:35,519 Speaker 3: He's I'd always say he's sighting the scope a little 248 00:14:35,559 --> 00:14:37,840 bit finer, and that's what it is. 249 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:41,279 Speaker 1: And he's like, he's like aer, he's a career thirty 250 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,120 nine shooter. It's not even like he has to refine 251 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:44,840 that much. 252 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:49,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just off the bounce, you know, side step three, 253 00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:53,000 stuff like that. But he's a good he's been a 254 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,759 good three point shooter obviously on catching shoots forever. Now 255 00:14:55,759 --> 00:14:57,639 can he do it more off the bounce and he's 256 00:14:57,679 --> 00:14:59,879 got James Harden to look to for any point her, 257 00:15:00,159 --> 00:15:02,200 so it's out of a perfect situation. 258 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:05,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's at nineteen point eight field goal attempts per game. 259 00:15:06,399 --> 00:15:09,120 Wayy giveaway is asking someone on social media said the 260 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,320 Clippers missed high volume scoring. I think that was La 261 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:16,279 clips Film who said that, Uh is this true? Yeah, 262 00:15:16,519 --> 00:15:21,200 it's clearly true, right, Like it's not a knock, but yeah, 263 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,720 high volume scoring helps the team and they need it. 264 00:15:24,879 --> 00:15:26,360 Every team needs high volume. 265 00:15:26,039 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 3: Scoring, especially because he's increasing the threes. So even if 266 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:35,360 he's missing like that volume from distance, because you look 267 00:15:35,399 --> 00:15:38,200 at James Harden, what is he I don't know what 268 00:15:38,279 --> 00:15:40,320 he's shooting from three this season, but I think he's 269 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:43,799 been around a thirty six three point shooters somewhere in 270 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,320 that range. But it's the volume that he gets up 271 00:15:46,799 --> 00:15:48,799 and the type of threes that he takes are so 272 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:54,799 tough to guard. That is the analytics. Yeah, that's the 273 00:15:54,879 --> 00:15:58,159 analytics coming into play now. If Kauai is taking the 274 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:01,759 tough threes that are are unguardable and he's actually making 275 00:16:01,799 --> 00:16:04,720 them in a higher percentage, I mean, that's a pretty 276 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:06,120 big revelation for this team. 277 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:11,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, Like we'll take it. I'm interested in, Yeah, and 278 00:16:12,279 --> 00:16:14,399 hardens it. He's shooting better from three this year than 279 00:16:14,399 --> 00:16:16,799 he was last year, only by a percent, but he's 280 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:19,399 also had two bad shooting games in a row. He's 281 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,360 two for his last twelve, so that's going to bounce back. 282 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,120 Speaker 2: To you know, and people don't. 283 00:16:24,559 --> 00:16:27,799 Speaker 3: They don't correlate him always with high efficiency from three. 284 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:31,399 But it's because his thirty six percent is different because 285 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,759 like nine of ten every ten three pointers he takes, 286 00:16:34,919 --> 00:16:38,679 maybe like twenty of every twenty one, they're off the bounce. 287 00:16:38,799 --> 00:16:41,159 Speaker 2: They're not catching shoot threes. He doesn't do that. 288 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 3: He has never been that comfortable with it because he's 289 00:16:44,039 --> 00:16:46,519 had to have this individual game where he kind of 290 00:16:46,559 --> 00:16:48,000 carries the team and is the system. 291 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,759 Speaker 1: He also gets fouled on threes. That's the other part 292 00:16:50,799 --> 00:16:53,120 of if some of the missed threes are because he's fouled, 293 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,240 which he does more than anyone in the history of 294 00:16:57,279 --> 00:17:00,279 the league. Alex Webb with a good question, was it 295 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,200 intentional last night to bench Harden in the fourth just 296 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,440 buying him some rest? I was surprised he didn't play 297 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:07,480 one minute in the fourth. I think Lou was just 298 00:17:07,559 --> 00:17:10,359 going with the hot lineup and let those guys do 299 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:13,839 the thing and buy all the rest you can from James. 300 00:17:13,839 --> 00:17:17,119 Speaker 3: For James Harden, it's one of the times you could 301 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,079 justify keeping him on the bench for a guy who 302 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:21,279 always wants to play. Because they came out and their 303 00:17:21,279 --> 00:17:24,200 first seven makes in the fourth quarter were all three pointers. 304 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,039 Speaker 2: Just let it ride. Hot hands out there, especially Kawhi. 305 00:17:27,519 --> 00:17:31,039 Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's it's great he played. Harden played fewer 306 00:17:31,079 --> 00:17:32,839 minutes in the Jazz game than the Kings game. 307 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,279 Speaker 2: We will take it, which is we will take it. 308 00:17:37,319 --> 00:17:41,880 Speaker 3: I mean, it was just an ambush of what they 309 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:45,160 did in that fourth quarter. It was so incendiary. It 310 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,680 happened so fast because there was a tight game. They 311 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:50,240 were up by one heading into the fourth quarter, and 312 00:17:50,279 --> 00:17:52,640 then by I think the sixth minute mark, they're up 313 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:53,480 by eleven. 314 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know. And it was a tight kind of 315 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:56,400 back and. 316 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,519 Speaker 3: Forth after that first quarter because the Clippers were simply 317 00:17:59,559 --> 00:18:02,799 missing all the open threes they ended up making. And 318 00:18:02,799 --> 00:18:04,720 people were telling me like, well, then stow up to you, 319 00:18:04,759 --> 00:18:06,680 and it was like, no, you have to take those 320 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:10,640 open threes. You are generating good offense. This is a 321 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,759 good thing. The law of averages is in your favor. 322 00:18:13,839 --> 00:18:17,160 If you keep getting that shot profile and keep taking them, 323 00:18:17,279 --> 00:18:19,440 and that's what happened. In the fourth quarter they started 324 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:22,039 to fall Yeah, and Kawhi just had like, all right, 325 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,559 let's go step on the gas, let's put them away. 326 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, waybe giveaway said they should have elaborated with high 327 00:18:30,079 --> 00:18:32,640 volume scoring instead of a missing position. Every year they 328 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,519 were always one good position short, be a backup big 329 00:18:35,559 --> 00:18:36,079 point wing. 330 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:38,640 Speaker 2: I don't know, it's not even true. 331 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 3: Like every year they almost every year they had injuries, 332 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:43,400 like that's what was holding them back for So the 333 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:44,559 positional thing. 334 00:18:45,079 --> 00:18:49,079 Speaker 1: Um people are talking about Zoo coming off the bench. 335 00:18:49,279 --> 00:18:51,359 I'm not going to speak on that, and I hope 336 00:18:51,519 --> 00:18:53,720 someone asked Tyloo about it, because I think you would 337 00:18:53,759 --> 00:18:57,440 have a very funny response if she was going to 338 00:18:57,519 --> 00:19:01,319 be coming off of asked if he was gonna be 339 00:19:01,319 --> 00:19:02,200 coming off the bench. 340 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:04,799 Speaker 3: One of the first questions will be is he back 341 00:19:04,839 --> 00:19:06,839 on the starting lineup or who is your starting lineup? 342 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:07,279 Speaker 2: Tomorrow? 343 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 1: We'll find out. We'll find out. I personally don't think 344 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,400 he will be coming off the bench. A guy who's 345 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:17,079 been really good during I mean, everyone's basically been good 346 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,359 during this win streak. But John Collins is doing a 347 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:23,119 lot of good stuff, which I really liked. He's upped 348 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,440 his rebounds per game during this wind streak than what 349 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,799 it usually is. His shooting has been crazy. The juice 350 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:35,839 is yeah, exact well about that. The juice is there 351 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:39,759 from John Collins, and I'm happy he's able to play 352 00:19:39,799 --> 00:19:40,599 through the rough start. 353 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's been pretty exceptional. Uh. 354 00:19:47,559 --> 00:19:52,400 Speaker 3: His aggressiveness and just comfortability within the starting lineup has 355 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,359 been better. And maybe you give Brooke some credit for 356 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:59,319 that because those two played together a lot. Coming off 357 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:02,599 the bench, maybe that made him more comfortable. 358 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:03,920 Speaker 2: But he was. 359 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 3: It felt like even before Beats' zubats went down, he 360 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,440 was starting to play better. Like he had twenty against 361 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:14,039 OKC on seven of thirteen shooting. That was with Ebats' zubots. 362 00:20:14,279 --> 00:20:18,319 He was having some better games out there. But this 363 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,039 is definitely the best version of him, closer to what 364 00:20:21,079 --> 00:20:22,240 everybody thought they were getting. 365 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,759 Speaker 1: And again, he's in a contract year, which is something 366 00:20:26,759 --> 00:20:29,599 that is important for these things. If the Clippers can 367 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:34,119 retain John coll I don't know. I hope. I hope 368 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:36,240 we can keep him if he continues. You know, he's 369 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,200 not going to shoot sixty four percent from three like 370 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:42,119 he is or whatever it's been. But just yeah, he's 371 00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:43,880 doing the things that he was brought here to do. 372 00:20:44,079 --> 00:20:46,359 And I think credit to Tyloo for taking the ball 373 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:51,079 out of his hand and not trying so much stuff 374 00:20:51,079 --> 00:20:53,680 that like he was initiating or something like that. 375 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 3: Well, and part of that is just what people are 376 00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:03,680 forgetting about this correlationation question is Okay, well, of eacha 377 00:21:03,759 --> 00:21:06,240 Zubos goes down and they win six in a row, 378 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:10,319 what about this one Kawhi Leonard gets off the minute 379 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:15,759 restriction like that also leads to John Collins not having 380 00:21:15,759 --> 00:21:17,640 the ball in his hands as much. That leads to 381 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:20,160 all these little things that add up and then a 382 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:24,119 big thing. It's just Kawhi feeling comfortable, knowing that he's 383 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,839 gonna play heavy minutes, getting his rhythm, and then playing 384 00:21:26,839 --> 00:21:28,279 some of the best basketball of his career. 385 00:21:28,839 --> 00:21:31,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what it is funny too, because sometimes the 386 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:33,839 answer is like, what is what's been so different for 387 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:36,440 the Clippers. It's like, well, Kawhi and James Harden have 388 00:21:36,519 --> 00:21:40,920 been elite and that's helped, and Kawhi is even on 389 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:42,599 a level past. 390 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,880 Speaker 3: That right now, and again I keep stressing this, but 391 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:49,920 their defense was already kicking in. They held Atlanta to 392 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,559 ninety two points with the beats of zubots. They held 393 00:21:52,559 --> 00:21:55,519 Memphis to one oh seven Minnesota one nine. Like they 394 00:21:55,599 --> 00:21:59,519 were starting to play really good defense, and that's something 395 00:21:59,599 --> 00:22:02,480 that was I mean, that's as important as anything, because 396 00:22:02,519 --> 00:22:06,160 the shots, just like last night, for three quarters, I 397 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,240 think they're I don't know, like eight of thirty two 398 00:22:08,319 --> 00:22:11,519 or something from the outside. It was bad, and then 399 00:22:11,559 --> 00:22:14,119 they went eight to fifteen in the fourth quarter. The 400 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:16,079 shots are going to come and go, and they were 401 00:22:16,079 --> 00:22:18,200 shooting at such a high rate, and I think they 402 00:22:18,279 --> 00:22:20,000 ended up at thirty one percent or something like that 403 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,759 last night. Even with that scorching hot fourth quarter from three. 404 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:26,119 You can't rely on the shooting to be that hot 405 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,200 forever where they're going to be a forty four percent 406 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,440 three points shooting team all of a sudden. So what 407 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:33,079 can you rely on. The defense should be there. The 408 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,240 defense should be there. That's what they had last season. 409 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:40,279 Speaker 1: The defense gets kind of a brutal test tomorrow. They 410 00:22:40,319 --> 00:22:44,599 played the Celtics, who were fourth in offensive rating. They do, 411 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:48,559 thankfully play slow. They're twenty ninth in pace. I think 412 00:22:48,599 --> 00:22:51,119 them and the Clippers have probably been flip flopping dead 413 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:54,599 last and twenty ninth. But Jalen Brown is playing insane 414 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,799 right now. So the Clippers do have ahead of their 415 00:22:57,799 --> 00:23:01,720 East Coast trip, kind of a tough test against the Celtics. 416 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:06,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, Boston, are they number two or number three in 417 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:10,319 the Eastern Conference right now? They actually have a pretty 418 00:23:10,319 --> 00:23:16,359 interesting dilemma because the idea was, oh, it's a gap 419 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:19,000 year for them and they can hold out Jason Tatum 420 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,119 the entire year, and now it looks like, well things 421 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,519 are pretty wide open in the Eastern Conference. And if 422 00:23:24,519 --> 00:23:27,240 you can get Jason Tatum back, even if he's not 423 00:23:27,319 --> 00:23:30,640 one hundred percent, but he's not risking retearing the Achilles, 424 00:23:31,799 --> 00:23:34,359 well you got to talk to the doctors on that one. 425 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,599 But like some will say that he won't be back 426 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,759 to himself, but he's not putting himself at further risk. 427 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:45,000 And if that's the case, with how good Jalen Brown 428 00:23:45,079 --> 00:23:47,440 has been, they have a chance to come out the 429 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:47,920 East two. 430 00:23:48,559 --> 00:23:51,119 Speaker 1: They're three and a half games back of the Pistons 431 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:51,839 for first. 432 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:55,680 Speaker 3: It's not and if they played the Pistons in a series, 433 00:23:55,799 --> 00:23:58,119 I would take Boston with Jason Tatum back even at 434 00:23:58,160 --> 00:23:59,279 eighty eighty five percent. 435 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 1: Right. The thing they do really well is offensive rebound. 436 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,720 They're ninth and offensive rebounds per game, but they're also 437 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,079 sixth in offensive rebound percentage, so you know that it's 438 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:15,000 like real offensive, you know what I mean? Like, actually, 439 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:16,920 you know a team is like, yeah, oh, they're fifth 440 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:19,160 in offensive rebound per game, but they they're like, you know, 441 00:24:19,559 --> 00:24:21,200 twenty third in rebound percentage or. 442 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 3: Something because they missed so many shots or whatever and 443 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,440 therefore there are more offensive rebounds available. 444 00:24:27,759 --> 00:24:31,599 Speaker 1: Yeah, but the Celtics seem to be pretty real with that, 445 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:34,400 especially considering their fourth and offensive ratings. So this is 446 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,920 another good test for like the effort on the glass, 447 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:39,720 not that it hasn't been there, It's obviously been there, 448 00:24:39,759 --> 00:24:42,440 but it's been like this is kind of the This 449 00:24:42,599 --> 00:24:44,960 is a great test during a six game win streak. 450 00:24:46,319 --> 00:24:51,119 Speaker 3: Yeah, I just noticed they're down about fifteen threes attempted 451 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:55,039 per game compared to last season. They're only at thirty eight. 452 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:58,839 Now they are shooting thirty seven percent from the outside. 453 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:00,759 Speaker 2: That's a little bit prizing to me. 454 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,279 Speaker 3: I kind of thought they might lean into it even 455 00:25:03,319 --> 00:25:06,720 more without Jason Tatum and having Anthony Simons and these 456 00:25:06,759 --> 00:25:09,200 guys and Peyton Pritchard looks to be even better coming 457 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:10,759 off what went in the sixth Man of the year. 458 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:17,359 That's like league average, now maybe a little. 459 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:17,640 Speaker 2: Bit of it. 460 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,119 Speaker 3: Yeah, league average about thirty six and a half. They're 461 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:23,680 at thirty eight three pointers attempted per game, but they 462 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:28,759 shoot it well their top ten there. Yeah, this will 463 00:25:28,759 --> 00:25:33,720 be a challenge for the Clippers, especially because I think 464 00:25:33,799 --> 00:25:36,400 Joe Mizzool is one of the better coaches in the NBA, 465 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:40,559 and he's obviously proving it this season. But they've won 466 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,559 six of seven now and their only loss was a 467 00:25:43,559 --> 00:25:46,400 close one in Portland to the Blazers. No shame in that. 468 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:50,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, I like this from JP saying perfect timing that 469 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:54,519 Derek Jones Junior is fully functional. Yes, it's awesome to 470 00:25:54,559 --> 00:25:57,599 have Derek Jones Junior back for this match up and 471 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,000 he gets a tough test. Right. What does it say 472 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:03,000 is fourth came back, third game back. 473 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:07,680 Speaker 2: That's my early player to watch because I remember Jalen 474 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:11,079 Brown went flying into his knee and it was pretty reckless. 475 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:13,400 That's how he got hurt. 476 00:26:13,599 --> 00:26:16,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, so I I do not like that play. And 477 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,279 I know Jaylen Brown is a great guy and everything. 478 00:26:18,279 --> 00:26:20,839 I just that was He's not a dirty player. He 479 00:26:20,839 --> 00:26:23,680 doesn't have that reputation. It was just overkilling a loose 480 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:25,440 ball in a game where they were up big, like 481 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:29,880 in the first or second quarter. He's diving supermanning towards 482 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:33,519 Jason Tatum's legs and kind of grabbed on to his knee. 483 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:37,599 Thank goodness, it wasn't season ending, her career altering because 484 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:38,279 it looked bad. 485 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 1: I forgot that was Jalen Brown. Yeah, they have a 486 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:46,440 lot of guys playing well right now. It's like they're 487 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:52,359 a very high Tatum still has some of a Jalen 488 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,720 Brown's hair residue on his knee from that. 489 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 2: The shoe Paul showed up. 490 00:27:02,759 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm feeling I don't know. I hope I don't. 491 00:27:06,559 --> 00:27:07,920 I want to see the same. I want to see 492 00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:09,880 the Clippers come out, not how they came out against 493 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:13,440 the Jazz, but how they've been approaching most of these 494 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:16,359 games during this stretch tomorrow because that I'll be happy 495 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:18,720 if they lose tomorrow. Whatever they're going to lose at 496 00:27:18,759 --> 00:27:21,559 some point, but let's I. 497 00:27:21,559 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 2: Really don't want to lost tomorrow because you know what 498 00:27:23,519 --> 00:27:26,000 that means. Zoo bots is the problem. I told you 499 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:28,480 that's all it's going to be. 500 00:27:28,759 --> 00:27:33,039 Speaker 1: Of course, I mean, yeah, I don't want the los Okay, sure, 501 00:27:33,079 --> 00:27:36,160 I don't want the loss tomorrow, but if they play 502 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,640 really well and they end up dropping a close one 503 00:27:38,759 --> 00:27:44,440 to a very good Celtics team, I won't feel as discouraged. 504 00:27:45,839 --> 00:27:49,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, the Clippers came back in that game. They ended 505 00:27:49,839 --> 00:27:52,480 up winning one twenty one to one. Eighteen Earlier this season, 506 00:27:52,519 --> 00:27:56,880 the Jaalen Brown DJ game. Yeah, Clippers only lost by three. 507 00:27:57,799 --> 00:28:00,960 They came back in the second half. But yeah, there 508 00:28:01,039 --> 00:28:03,960 was some Boston was I remember hitting everything. They were 509 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:07,519 sixteen of thirty nine from three in that game. Slippers, though, 510 00:28:07,519 --> 00:28:08,680 were fourteen to thirty five. 511 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:10,559 Speaker 2: But again, it's not even. 512 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:15,319 Speaker 1: Just everything having one of his weird uh yeah, he 513 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:17,880 went weird team of those games. 514 00:28:18,519 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's good, but he had eighty three pointers in 515 00:28:21,039 --> 00:28:27,359 that game. So wait a second. Yesterday and the winning 516 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:32,079 and getting the six game winning streak. This was coincidentally 517 00:28:32,279 --> 00:28:35,440 the sixth straight game where they have outshot their opponents 518 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:40,640 from three, won all six. Utah went six of twenty 519 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:42,960 seven from the outside. As bad as the Clippers were, 520 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:44,319 they eventually turned it around. 521 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 2: Yeah. 522 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:51,559 Speaker 3: So I just a lot of people are like, I 523 00:28:51,599 --> 00:28:53,720 still think it's a lot of make or Miss League stuff, 524 00:28:53,839 --> 00:28:56,960 which with what's been happening as of late. Yeah, and 525 00:28:57,039 --> 00:28:59,119 we have to acknowledge that Kawhi is not going to 526 00:28:59,160 --> 00:28:59,839 average forty either. 527 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:00,599 Speaker 2: The season. 528 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 1: The whole team has been shooting so well. I think 529 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,640 we looked at last episode we all did together. They 530 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,039 were like first and true shooting by like kind of 531 00:29:08,039 --> 00:29:10,720 a lot when they had only won five games in 532 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:11,079 a row. 533 00:29:12,119 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 3: It's if not only you're shooting, you know, on a 534 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:18,359 heater for a couple of weeks from three, but then 535 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:21,400 you're also getting the benefit of your opponent missing way 536 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:25,240 more shots than usual from three and open looks. That 537 00:29:25,519 --> 00:29:29,880 is the perfect storm to have a type of six 538 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:31,759 game winning streak for this Clippers team. 539 00:29:32,079 --> 00:29:32,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. 540 00:29:33,039 --> 00:29:35,359 Speaker 3: I'm not saying they're doing things better. I'm not saying 541 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:38,000 Kawhi hasn't been amazing. They're doing a lot of things better. 542 00:29:38,039 --> 00:29:40,279 The defense have been better, and it's going to need 543 00:29:40,319 --> 00:29:42,720 to stay that way because the shooting isn't going to 544 00:29:42,759 --> 00:29:43,279 stay like this. 545 00:29:45,559 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 1: It is not going to stay like this, but let's 546 00:29:48,519 --> 00:29:50,799 hope it does a little bit tomorrow. And I like 547 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:52,720 what you're saying about the Celtics though, and that three 548 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:55,160 point percent is stat because we do have a shot 549 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:57,720 to outshoot them from three. Like you said, they're shooting 550 00:29:58,359 --> 00:29:59,759 thirty six point four percent. 551 00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:04,079 Speaker 2: The Clippers took one threes. The Clippers took fifty one 552 00:30:04,119 --> 00:30:06,640 threes last game. By the way, that's Celtic style. 553 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,799 Speaker 1: That's what I thought it was that they've taken. 554 00:30:09,519 --> 00:30:11,759 Speaker 2: Is that true. I didn't see. That's sad, that's crazy. 555 00:30:11,799 --> 00:30:13,359 I think it's a lot. 556 00:30:14,559 --> 00:30:16,839 Speaker 3: But to me, I was fine with it. Like they 557 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:20,720 weren't forcing them a lot of that. Kawhi take sixteen. 558 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:26,759 He's taking tougher threes, but they were just generating open looks. 559 00:30:27,039 --> 00:30:29,000 And you have to take those shots and make teams 560 00:30:29,039 --> 00:30:30,640 respect you because eventually they'll go. 561 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:35,599 Speaker 1: Yeah, chunk V is asking if you told Zubac to 562 00:30:35,599 --> 00:30:36,920 come back so he doesn't get traded. 563 00:30:40,559 --> 00:30:43,599 Speaker 3: I've said many times before, I'm I'm a Clippers fan first. 564 00:30:43,759 --> 00:30:46,960 Zue is my favorite Clipper, of course, uh he makes 565 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,680 it easy to be a big fan of his. But 566 00:30:51,279 --> 00:30:54,519 I think when you're still twelve and twenty one, everything 567 00:30:54,519 --> 00:30:57,240 should still be on the table. When you're still looking 568 00:30:57,279 --> 00:31:01,240 at at best a first round matchup it's Okac or 569 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:04,440 wherever ends up the two seed, everything should still be 570 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:06,640 on the table to me as well as they're playing. 571 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 1: I do have to snap my head up and go. 572 00:31:09,359 --> 00:31:12,680 They have won twelve games, you know what I do 573 00:31:12,839 --> 00:31:16,200 have to It's been great. They have won twelve games. 574 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 3: I got people in the chat last night saying it's 575 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,440 over when we're inning the entire thing, and it's like, guys, 576 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,400 they're twelve and twenty one. 577 00:31:24,039 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we got the ways to go. Okay. I 578 00:31:27,559 --> 00:31:32,119 found two not news pieces that I'm introducing into a 579 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:35,279 segment called Slot Friday, where it's just pieces about the 580 00:31:35,279 --> 00:31:38,359 Clippers that aren't really news despite the Clippers playing some 581 00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:42,480 incredible basketball. Zach Lowe mentioned the Clippers in an ad 582 00:31:42,599 --> 00:31:45,680 trade scenario on his pod. He said, I'd keep an 583 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:48,920 eye on the Bucks and Clippers just for the desperation 584 00:31:49,119 --> 00:31:53,079 factor that was about it, and that has been running 585 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,319 rampant through the streets of the aggregators. 586 00:31:57,519 --> 00:32:00,359 Speaker 3: I gotta see the context for that, because Zach blows 587 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:01,359 pretty level headed. 588 00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 1: It's like, I'll send it. It's time stamped. It's like 589 00:32:04,319 --> 00:32:08,599 right in the beginning when him in or who is it? 590 00:32:08,599 --> 00:32:10,839 Why can't I remember say, I know this guy are 591 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:12,920 talking about the trade stuff, and he's like, I'm just 592 00:32:13,279 --> 00:32:16,200 like that was it. It was like one sentence. No, 593 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:22,400 it was like one sentence, but it wasn't. They didn't 594 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:24,079 really go into it. He was just like, I'm kind 595 00:32:24,079 --> 00:32:27,680 of feeling this. It's it's one sentence. And then they 596 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:31,799 talk about like where Trey Young is gonna go. Yeah, 597 00:32:31,839 --> 00:32:36,799 but people are you know, picking it up because they're insane. 598 00:32:37,839 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't see it happening. 599 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:44,480 Speaker 1: I don't see it happening. It'd be insane. The other 600 00:32:44,559 --> 00:32:48,480 thing was there was a wind horse did his like 601 00:32:49,839 --> 00:32:54,400 Top twenty twenty six storylines him in bond Temps, and 602 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:58,039 he talked about Balmer and the Clippers and he said, 603 00:32:58,559 --> 00:33:00,720 you know, with all the aspiration stuff, said Clippers owner 604 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:03,279 Steve Balmer has earned a good reputation with fellow owners. 605 00:33:05,079 --> 00:33:07,400 His net worth is around one hundred and fifty billion dollars. 606 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:09,559 When speaking to people in the league, these are important 607 00:33:09,599 --> 00:33:13,200 factors to consider. Uh, you have to be careful getting 608 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,359 into a legal fight with someone like Balmer. You have 609 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:19,880 to have the evidence. One rival team president said, again, 610 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:24,000 not really news. I think it was it was Mo 611 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,039 doc Hill who was on the pod. Sorry, we got 612 00:33:26,079 --> 00:33:31,839 it was Mo. Yeah, So this is what why can't 613 00:33:31,839 --> 00:33:33,559 they just talk about how good Kawhi is playing. 614 00:33:34,559 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 3: Who cares about because Bill Simmons said just about two 615 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:39,559 and a half weeks ago, he's the fifty fourth best 616 00:33:39,599 --> 00:33:40,559 player in the league. 617 00:33:41,839 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 1: Fifty four is such a funny number to put on. 618 00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 2: It, especially when Kawhi gets fifty five. 619 00:33:47,839 --> 00:33:48,039 Speaker 1: Yeah. 620 00:33:48,279 --> 00:33:50,519 Speaker 2: Poring wise, a few days later he. 621 00:33:50,519 --> 00:33:54,079 Speaker 1: Said go to hell. People were in the chat. Someone 622 00:33:54,119 --> 00:33:57,079 was asking what we want the Clippers to trade for 623 00:33:57,119 --> 00:34:00,359 if it's like a there we go, h would we 624 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:04,440 look for a ball handler or a wing three and D. 625 00:34:05,279 --> 00:34:05,599 Speaker 2: I don't know. 626 00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:08,760 Speaker 1: It's hard to evaluate right now because the Clippers are 627 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:12,920 playing fantastic basketball and everyone looked great. I don't mean 628 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:14,840 I'm not to a question. 629 00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:19,400 Speaker 3: But they have DJ back, they have Chris done healthy. 630 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:22,199 I think there is a little bit of a void 631 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:25,599 of just having a more traditional backup ball handler like 632 00:34:25,639 --> 00:34:28,480 we thought her three was going to be. Bogie can't 633 00:34:28,519 --> 00:34:30,920 stay healthy at this point, Like it looks like a 634 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,760 lost season from him. I hope that's not the case, 635 00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:37,280 but a lost tenure with the Clippers with how much 636 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:41,079 he has been hurt unfortunately, so I don't think you 637 00:34:41,159 --> 00:34:43,760 can rely on him at this point coming back and 638 00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:46,119 being that guy, because you just can't stay healthy. 639 00:34:47,519 --> 00:34:50,719 Speaker 1: Is his biggest Clipper highlight making the three to get 640 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:54,440 Zoo his triple double. Not and that's a great highlight. 641 00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:56,960 Speaker 2: It was a great highlight. 642 00:34:58,199 --> 00:34:59,760 Speaker 1: Probably That pretty cool. 643 00:35:00,159 --> 00:35:03,800 Speaker 3: Oh, I mean he had like a three week fifty 644 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:05,480 percent from three period. 645 00:35:05,159 --> 00:35:10,039 Speaker 2: Before the playoffs started last year. That was cool. But yeah, 646 00:35:10,079 --> 00:35:11,679 it's just it's really unfortunate. 647 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:18,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, breaking down, it's probably backup point ball handler whatever 648 00:35:18,119 --> 00:35:22,480 that would be someone's asking if they wave no. I 649 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:25,239 don't think they're going to wave anybody no. 650 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:29,719 Speaker 3: Bogie's contract is an expiring like sixteen million or something 651 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:32,159 like that that if you are going to make a trade, 652 00:35:32,639 --> 00:35:36,199 it could be, yeah, a really valuable trade filler type 653 00:35:36,199 --> 00:35:38,639 thing for a team that's looking to get off the 654 00:35:38,639 --> 00:35:39,519 books with somebody. 655 00:35:39,599 --> 00:35:40,480 Speaker 2: You're not going to wave that. 656 00:35:41,159 --> 00:35:42,760 Speaker 1: It's a club option too. So if you're one of 657 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,800 those teams that you know it is like kind of bad, 658 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:48,239 you're like trying to shed it because they're like, well, 659 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:49,679 I guess if he's good, we can keep him for 660 00:35:49,679 --> 00:35:53,679 another sixteen I don't know. Yeah, I don't know who's 661 00:35:53,679 --> 00:35:56,079 out there. I don't know what backup point they're trading 662 00:35:56,119 --> 00:35:56,599 for though. 663 00:35:58,039 --> 00:35:58,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know either. 664 00:35:59,199 --> 00:36:02,280 Speaker 1: Cam Thomas on Udition game is in and the Cam 665 00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:04,840 Thomas and MPJ Mega Trade Audition game is in a 666 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:05,440 couple of days. 667 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:11,599 Speaker 2: I'm the word. I like them both. 668 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,400 Speaker 3: I do, but I don't know, you know, tell me 669 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:15,639 what you're giving up for him? 670 00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:17,679 Speaker 1: It also and it feels too like it's like if 671 00:36:17,679 --> 00:36:21,039 we're still operating contract wise within the same window. It 672 00:36:21,119 --> 00:36:24,000 feels close to like what the results would be if 673 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:31,000 we kept these current guys trade Bogie get younger and better. Sure, 674 00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:34,360 I would love if that was what happens. 675 00:36:35,159 --> 00:36:37,639 Speaker 3: Hell, that's a hell of a strategy. Nobody's ever thought 676 00:36:37,639 --> 00:36:40,400 of that. Let's get younger and better. 677 00:36:40,599 --> 00:36:43,199 Speaker 1: Show me that, Show me Bogie getting younger better in 678 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:46,159 the trade machine. Colin Sexton is someone who I wish 679 00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:48,280 was an LA Clipper, but I don't know how it works. 680 00:36:50,079 --> 00:36:51,360 Speaker 2: Is he making twenty million? 681 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:52,079 Speaker 1: I was. 682 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:54,800 Speaker 3: I was still shocked by that trade, but I guess 683 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:56,760 it makes sense in the end, because what they were 684 00:36:56,760 --> 00:37:00,920 doing was opening up more playing time, yeah, and more 685 00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:03,119 usage for Keyante George and. 686 00:37:03,199 --> 00:37:05,239 Speaker 1: I have to be honest, I completely forgot that he 687 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:06,599 was on the fucking cordets. 688 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:09,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a weird ass trade. 689 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:13,360 Speaker 1: Sorry for everybody, I don't watch a lot of that's insane. Okay, 690 00:37:13,519 --> 00:37:17,119 he is at nineteen million eighteen point nine and then 691 00:37:17,119 --> 00:37:19,360 he's unrestricted in twenty six, twenty seven. 692 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:27,199 Speaker 2: Uh. Yeah, I talked about Sexton a lot last season. 693 00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:28,440 I like Colin Sexton. 694 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:32,360 Speaker 1: I wonder what great What does his contract at twenty 695 00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:34,000 eight look like? Do you think. 696 00:37:36,519 --> 00:37:40,679 Speaker 3: Depends how he plays stays healthy? Uh, he might still 697 00:37:40,679 --> 00:37:42,000 be a twenty million dollar guy. 698 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:50,079 Speaker 1: His contract was four for seventy one. Huh. Striver's saying 699 00:37:50,119 --> 00:37:53,119 twenty mil is disgusting. I don't know if it's disgusting. 700 00:37:53,159 --> 00:37:55,440 I think Colin Sexton's been on bad teams the last 701 00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:56,880 couple of years, and if he was on a good team, 702 00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,000 he'd be good for that team. 703 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:01,840 Speaker 2: His efficiency, he's nice, and. 704 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:05,039 Speaker 1: When the cap goes up, twenty million isn't like I 705 00:38:05,119 --> 00:38:08,679 think the like Derek I think is like the best 706 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:10,599 one of the best contracts in the league because he 707 00:38:10,639 --> 00:38:15,440 makes ten million dollars. But twenty I mean it's not ideal. 708 00:38:15,559 --> 00:38:17,599 I'm not going to sit here and be like it's good, 709 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,360 but I think it's an easier pill to swallow than 710 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:22,599 what it might look like. 711 00:38:24,559 --> 00:38:27,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, it depends on, you know, how short the contract is, 712 00:38:28,199 --> 00:38:29,119 a lot of factors. 713 00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:32,719 Speaker 1: But yeah, what would we even what do the Hornets 714 00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:36,320 want to get worse? Because, like, would they trade him 715 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:41,920 for Bogie? What is that? Look like? I was even 716 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:42,760 playing that much. 717 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:45,440 Speaker 2: I thought they were lucky to get him in the 718 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:46,079 first place. 719 00:38:46,119 --> 00:38:48,719 Speaker 3: So yeah, I'm sure they'd look at him as an 720 00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:50,519 asset and they're not just gonna give him away. 721 00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:53,400 Speaker 1: But they are a poorly run team lest we forget. 722 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 2: George's not there though anymore. 723 00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:59,599 Speaker 1: So yeah, very true. Okay, so he is playing, I 724 00:38:59,599 --> 00:39:04,679 mean he's playing like fifteen minutes a game. Oh wait, no, 725 00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:12,079 I'm an idiot. He's playing like twenty minutes a game. Huh. 726 00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:14,920 I mean, yeah, I would like to get called Sexton, 727 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:16,239 but I don't know what. I don't know if that 728 00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:23,039 trade looks like Jose saying, is it crazy that I 729 00:39:23,079 --> 00:39:27,519 believe more in Rookie Sanders than Bogie? No, Kobe's been available, 730 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,400 like yeah, which sucks for Bogee. 731 00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:33,320 Speaker 2: It's just. 732 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:38,960 Speaker 3: Endless inconsistency with playing time with Bogee because of his injuries. 733 00:39:39,159 --> 00:39:41,199 There's no way for a shooter like that that's a 734 00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:43,920 rhythm guy, to ever catch his groove. 735 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:46,719 Speaker 1: And what I think. Lots said that he hasn't had 736 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:48,199 a healthy three weeks. 737 00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:51,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's been insanely bad luck. 738 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:54,440 Speaker 1: It's brutal. Yeah, So I mean, I'm sure they'll try 739 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:57,840 and move him for I don't know the landscape of 740 00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:00,719 the backup point guard position. Who makes sick team million dollars, 741 00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:03,360 who can be traded with all the apron stuff. But 742 00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:06,199 I'm sure they'll try and move him. But I don't 743 00:40:06,199 --> 00:40:07,239 think anything major is coming. 744 00:40:09,559 --> 00:40:13,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's like, I don't know who they there's not 745 00:40:13,679 --> 00:40:16,559 a player good enough you could get to where all 746 00:40:16,559 --> 00:40:18,199 of a sudden you're the fifth seed. 747 00:40:18,679 --> 00:40:20,760 Speaker 2: Like there, there really isn't a trade out there to 748 00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:21,159 do that. 749 00:40:21,639 --> 00:40:26,920 Speaker 3: You're pretty locked into being a playing team. Right, maybe 750 00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:30,559 they stay on this heater for you know, thirty games, 751 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:35,400 but it is six games right. 752 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:38,800 Speaker 1: Now, it is six games. Some would say that Kawhi 753 00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:41,679 has very high trade value after these six games. Everyone 754 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:46,440 kind of does. But again, I don't think the offers there. 755 00:40:47,559 --> 00:40:49,320 If they were to trade Kawhi, I think it would 756 00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:52,639 be like, yeah, it would have to be for I 757 00:40:52,679 --> 00:40:54,360 don't know what it would be. And his value is weird. 758 00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:56,760 His value is kind of odd to figure out. Given 759 00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:57,719 aspiration stuff. 760 00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:00,880 Speaker 3: I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if he keeps a 761 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:02,119 high level play up. 762 00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:06,679 Speaker 2: Somebody goes in the Eastern Conference. You know, we get Kawhi. 763 00:41:06,679 --> 00:41:08,320 We could make a run because the East is sewed 764 00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:09,400 down and it's that simple. 765 00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:13,519 Speaker 1: Boston, Boston trades for Zoo and Kawhi. 766 00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:18,719 Speaker 2: Wow, that's a lot. 767 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:25,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, that would be a lot. Is ty tie any good? 768 00:41:26,199 --> 00:41:31,400 His G League highlights are nice. His highlights are nice, 769 00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:36,519 I don't know, not nice enough to be the backup 770 00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:45,840 point guard unfortunately. All right, anything else, I'm not feeling 771 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:49,400 super good about tomorrow. But oh yeah, Kawhi to Toronto. 772 00:41:49,599 --> 00:41:52,079 I think how good they'd be with her. Leak four. 773 00:41:55,760 --> 00:42:00,159 Speaker 3: Kawhi could swing uh playoff destiny for a lot of 774 00:42:00,199 --> 00:42:03,840 different teams in the East, because it's just the East 775 00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:05,800 is so wide open. 776 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:14,239 Speaker 1: That would be so chaotic, man that that would be weird. 777 00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:16,400 I think that would be the best way to describe it. 778 00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:20,079 It would just be of an incredible It would Yeah, 779 00:42:20,559 --> 00:42:24,920 Piston fans walk Kawhi take a lot of good stuff 780 00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:27,119 over in Boston or in Detroit. 781 00:42:28,519 --> 00:42:32,400 Speaker 3: You guys gotta understand that's fifty million dollars in contracts 782 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:36,599 you're getting back. My guess is it's not going to 783 00:42:36,639 --> 00:42:39,239 be a contractor's there gonna be at least one contract 784 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:41,800 you would get back that would be offered that does 785 00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:44,360 not expire in the summer of twenty twenty seven, and. 786 00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:47,639 Speaker 1: Then you would go, oh, fuck, you saw the full 787 00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:48,159 terms of it. 788 00:42:48,199 --> 00:42:54,000 Speaker 3: I think, yeah, unless it's a young, promising guy. I 789 00:42:54,119 --> 00:42:57,760 did not see the Clippers budgeting on their twenty twenty 790 00:42:57,760 --> 00:42:58,360 seven plan. 791 00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:03,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, are the core right? Because any trade is getting 792 00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:07,199 talked about with both Harden and Kawi. 793 00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:12,519 Speaker 3: Would be my guess, Yeah, how can you straight one 794 00:43:12,559 --> 00:43:14,400 of them and just not blow up the entire thing? 795 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:14,599 Speaker 2: Then? 796 00:43:16,199 --> 00:43:19,639 Speaker 1: Or they do and we enter an interesting new healthscape 797 00:43:19,679 --> 00:43:26,079 of Clippers media hate, which would be good. 798 00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:31,239 Speaker 3: It's just, I mean, everybody is on this Kawhi high 799 00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:37,000 right now, and it's fabulous. They all wanted him gone 800 00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:39,599 two weeks ago. They all wanted this to be over 801 00:43:39,639 --> 00:43:40,719 two weeks ago. 802 00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:46,760 Speaker 1: So it was bad. Two weeks ago, it was bad. 803 00:43:47,519 --> 00:43:53,639 Speaker 3: But maybe the lesson here is there's no fall sample size. 804 00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:57,519 Prisoner of the moment. We've seen this type of stuff before. 805 00:43:58,039 --> 00:44:02,239 We should have longer memories of how things can turn around. 806 00:44:02,599 --> 00:44:05,840 Speaker 1: Longer memories that's for the past. Dude, welcome, welcome to 807 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:06,639 short memories. 808 00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:12,440 Speaker 3: All of a sudden, Scoach Lou doesn't suck, Florence Frank 809 00:44:12,519 --> 00:44:13,159 doesn't suck. 810 00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:14,119 Speaker 2: You got yawnick? 811 00:44:15,039 --> 00:44:20,159 Speaker 1: People still hate? Yeah, I think and I hope the 812 00:44:20,159 --> 00:44:22,800 Clippers' memories are short about what's been happening, because tomorrow's 813 00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:27,079 game is going to be difficult. Yeah, just go in 814 00:44:27,119 --> 00:44:29,960 with the focus. Anything else you want to say about 815 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:32,800 the Clippers or tomorrow.

The clips have been 826 00:45:09,119 --> 00:45:11,960 playing so well. They saw that people wanted the dips back, 827 00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:21,480 and they said no. Strictly an off season thing all right, 828 00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:23,440 we'll talk to everybody later. Have a good rest of 829 00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:26,079 your weekend.
