1 00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:15,599 Speaker 1: What is going on? Clippers fans, Welcome to an incredibly 2 00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:19,800 impromptu ten thirty in the morning on Saturday quick live 3 00:00:19,839 --> 00:00:24,160 stream hang over at YouTube dot com sash at Clippers podcast. 4 00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:28,800 The Clippers will be getting Ben Simmons. We know that 5 00:00:28,879 --> 00:00:34,320 Will Updyke is going to be excited about this, so yeah, 6 00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:37,399 Ben Simmons will be a Clipper. It happened pretty quickly. 7 00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:40,240 Usually these things can sometimes take a little bit longer 8 00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:46,479 to kind of, you know, happen. I guess the Clippers 9 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:51,079 do get Ben Simmons. Good morning. I was gonna go 10 00:00:51,119 --> 00:00:54,759 do some shit and then this happened, So why not. 11 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,119 I'm gonna drink this Lacroix. We're gonna talk about it. 12 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,719 Alex Webb saying he just got his bet ten Jersey. 13 00:01:00,799 --> 00:01:05,120 Let's go big year for Australian Clippers fans. Well, maybe not, 14 00:01:05,239 --> 00:01:07,560 depending how some of them maybe feel about Ben Simmons, 15 00:01:08,159 --> 00:01:11,120 but it is official. Chris Haynes tweeting out that three 16 00:01:11,159 --> 00:01:13,159 time All Star Ben Simmons will sign with the Los 17 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:22,159 Angeles Clippers. What that means is, hopefully this can help 18 00:01:22,239 --> 00:01:25,359 the second unit with some ball handling and kind of 19 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:29,359 being the release valve, which is the term that we've 20 00:01:29,439 --> 00:01:32,359 kind of heard this year. Sorry, I'm just gonna put 21 00:01:32,359 --> 00:01:46,239 this on Twitter. Pop up out there, we go. Okay, Jeremy, 22 00:01:46,799 --> 00:01:48,560 you got me on that one. That's a good bit. 23 00:01:48,719 --> 00:01:53,879 We've been missing that mentally week All Star Players. I'm 24 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:57,400 excited for Ben Simmons, but that is very funny. We'll 25 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:02,280 play Jeremy on your game this morning. Most people seem excited. 26 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,760 I think Robert Flahm brought up a good point. How 27 00:02:05,799 --> 00:02:10,199 he impacts the rotations is gonna be interesting. We don't 28 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,039 know how much. You know, it's gonna play him too much. 29 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:21,719 We've seen that before. Seems bad. Yeah, but this should 30 00:02:21,719 --> 00:02:24,039 theoretically how he fits in the rotation, This should make 31 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,439 things easier for the second unit in terms of, you know, 32 00:02:26,879 --> 00:02:33,639 setting the table. That is what I kind of harden 33 00:02:33,719 --> 00:02:37,039 talked about. Where did that quote go? Yeah? Law Murray 34 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:38,520 had this great take. I think we have to look 35 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,520 at it outside of point guard and more like play 36 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:44,680 starter and Ben Simmons can start plays right like, he 37 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,800 can make things easier for just getting into the offense, 38 00:02:48,199 --> 00:02:51,680 which is good defensively. We'll see how he looks at 39 00:02:51,719 --> 00:02:55,120 the small ball five. It kind of gives uh, Nico 40 00:02:55,199 --> 00:03:00,599 some rest from being the small ball five, which is good. Yeah. 41 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:04,120 So there was the tweet from Chris Haynes. It's gonna 42 00:03:04,159 --> 00:03:11,960 be interesting. We'll see what happened again. Like it's a buyout, 43 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:16,879 it's hard to pop. A p is very excited. This 44 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,719 might be will Updyke's burner. Yeah. I don't know if 45 00:03:20,879 --> 00:03:25,039 if this is uh, you know, uh a game breaking 46 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:31,280 you know situation, but it is gonna be a good 47 00:03:31,319 --> 00:03:34,599 time for the second unit in terms of just being normal. 48 00:03:35,919 --> 00:03:40,400 Here's the tweet. If people missed it, great take right here. 49 00:03:40,479 --> 00:03:42,400 Can they change the Chick fil A rules to allow 50 00:03:42,439 --> 00:03:44,680 the home team to miss two free throws for guaranteed 51 00:03:44,719 --> 00:03:47,840 to get some free chicken sand. Thus, now you guys 52 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:49,800 are coming with the heat early in the morning, and 53 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:55,120 this is I love it. Yeah, I mean, let's not. 54 00:03:55,599 --> 00:03:58,319 I don't think Ben Simmons is gonna average nine to 55 00:03:58,319 --> 00:04:02,199 eight and eight. He's not gonna have bridge a borderline 56 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:06,400 triple topple. It's not that I don't think that will happen. 57 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,080 If Ben Simmons, all he has to do to be 58 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:17,319 a successful buyout candidate for this team is make good cuts, 59 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,680 be able to be that release valve that the Clippers 60 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,839 need for the second unit or anything like that. Buy 61 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,399 in Obviously, it was reported he wanted to go to 62 00:04:27,439 --> 00:04:29,079 a place where he could have a role and have 63 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,079 a chance at a chip. He has a bigger role 64 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,480 here than he would in Cleveland, which were the two 65 00:04:33,519 --> 00:04:37,879 teams that were kind of vying for him. He doesn't 66 00:04:37,879 --> 00:04:41,759 have to shoot. He's got to be above average defensively 67 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:46,519 and just play smart basketball. There's enough around him where 68 00:04:46,519 --> 00:04:48,439 he doesn't have to do a lot, nor should he 69 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,920 be asked to do a lot. The Robert flomtake was 70 00:04:50,959 --> 00:04:53,519 good about how it affects rotations, because if we start 71 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,959 to see too much Ben Simmons, then things have gone 72 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,920 awry obviously, and Tyler needs to figure some stuff out. 73 00:04:59,759 --> 00:05:05,079 But ideally he's just kind of there to move the ball, 74 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,720 play good defense, and cut when he's supposed to cut. 75 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:13,160 That's all he's gonna be asked to do and hopefully 76 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:20,680 it works. And the nets were bad. I admittedly didn't 77 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,680 watch a lot of Nuts basketball. I have much better 78 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:26,680 things to do, like watch Clippers basketball. A lot of 79 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,319 people asking how is he in transition? Playing on offense 80 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:32,639 and defense. It's like the the ability is there, we've 81 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,240 kind of seen it. We just again, the motivation thing 82 00:05:35,319 --> 00:05:39,639 is very key. I think people talking about that is 83 00:05:40,079 --> 00:05:42,160 a big is fair, right, We got to see what 84 00:05:42,199 --> 00:05:45,759 it looks like in the minutes that he's getting with 85 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:49,639 the addition of Bogey. We really only need assistant rebounds room. Yeah, 86 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:54,160 I like that only as in quotes from Cali here, Yeah, 87 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,160 only needing assistant rebound. That's still you know, big lifts. 88 00:05:57,199 --> 00:05:59,240 But he's got to be able to set the table, 89 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,560 not even necessarily rack up assists numbers, just get guys 90 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:07,720 in spots where they're supposed to be. The Patty Mills 91 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:11,800 thing is nice, there is a connection there. Is he 92 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,839 even healthy, Yes, he is healthy, but the Ben Simmons 93 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:20,920 version of healthy, as we know, can be a little murky, right, 94 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:23,959 I think that's a fair question. We hope that he's 95 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,920 healthy and good to go, but yeah, he should be 96 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,720 able to guard some bigger guys that the Clippers kind 97 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:33,360 of have trouble with, should be able to set the 98 00:06:33,399 --> 00:06:36,120 table a little bit easier. But and it's no rent, 99 00:06:36,199 --> 00:06:41,600 this is a buyout. Yeah. So now we get into 100 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,600 situations where, like the issue with Simmons is he's obviously 101 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,399 a non shooter, so we can't We got to watch 102 00:06:47,439 --> 00:06:52,199 for the rotations where there's hopefully only two non shooters 103 00:06:52,199 --> 00:06:54,720 out there at this point. By Nick McCallister saying done 104 00:06:54,759 --> 00:06:56,959 and Simmons can't be on the floor together, You're right 105 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,199 it or it has to be done Simmons and then 106 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,480 James Harden, Norm Powell and Kawhi because there needs to 107 00:07:03,519 --> 00:07:06,600 be some kind of shooting but not. This is something 108 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:10,360 to watch for, is the rotations. He can't be out 109 00:07:10,399 --> 00:07:13,480 there with Zoo, he can't be out there with Chris Dunn. 110 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:19,199 That is kind of it. I think, not that that's insignificant, 111 00:07:19,199 --> 00:07:24,040 but we can't have multiple non shooters on the floor. 112 00:07:25,439 --> 00:07:28,040 It's yeah, this is something to watch for. If we 113 00:07:28,079 --> 00:07:30,160 want to know how the Ben Simmons thing is going, 114 00:07:30,399 --> 00:07:33,800 Let's watch what lineups he's put in. Let's hope he's 115 00:07:33,839 --> 00:07:36,639 put in a position to succeed, you know what I 116 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:40,360 mean with the lineups. We've seen ty Loo put out 117 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,879 some lineups where like no one could succeed, especially if 118 00:07:42,879 --> 00:07:45,519 you're a non shooter. So let's hope that Ben Simmons 119 00:07:45,639 --> 00:07:48,720 is put into lineups where he can be successful and 120 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:50,839 kind of be that that chaos guy in the middle 121 00:07:51,079 --> 00:07:53,959 right that that small ball five who's running around just 122 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,600 making things difficult for the other team on defense, cutting 123 00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:59,319 to the rim and stuff like that on offense. But 124 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:03,639 totally agree, Mick. We have to watch what the lineups 125 00:08:03,639 --> 00:08:05,959 look like with him in terms of shooting. It's very 126 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:07,560 That is kind of the number one thing to look 127 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:12,839 out for. Simmons, Norms, Coffee, Derek jo Junior Batoum would 128 00:08:12,839 --> 00:08:18,000 be interesting. It would be interesting. Ball pressure stuff gets 129 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:22,199 a little difficult here, so we'll see. Jeremy Mormon asking 130 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:24,279 do you think we promised him a contract next year? 131 00:08:24,519 --> 00:08:26,839 I don't think that. I don't really know why I 132 00:08:26,879 --> 00:08:29,279 think that, but I don't think. I think he just 133 00:08:29,319 --> 00:08:31,800 gets more playing time, and if he plays well here 134 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,600 and the Clippers overperform, he can get a bigger contract 135 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:39,039 from somewhere else. So I think he probably came here 136 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,480 because he was told he'd have a role. I don't 137 00:08:41,519 --> 00:08:43,600 know if he was promised. I don't think they promised 138 00:08:43,639 --> 00:08:45,639 him a contract, but they definitely were like, you're gonna 139 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:53,639 have some time here, So yeah, I think that definitely happened. Yeah, exactly. 140 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,480 Dun Ben and Zoos should not be in at any 141 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,960 time unless you pay a shooter for each lineup. Yeah, 142 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,080 it can't. We can't fall into the trap of playing 143 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,080 a small ball lineup that has two nine shooters on it. 144 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:11,480 That is when things have gone poorly. Bob, Bob asking 145 00:09:11,519 --> 00:09:14,919 if Jordan Miller gets more minutes. I don't know. They 146 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:20,120 just brought in Beauchamp, who shout out Seattle, who like, 147 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,080 is hold on? Where was the tweet? Someone was breaking 148 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:29,399 down kind of the difference between Jordan Miller and uh 149 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,000 in Beauchamp. Oh, the transaction cannot be completed until Monday 150 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:39,279 at earliest due to waivers. So there we go. So 151 00:09:39,399 --> 00:09:43,279 that's interesting. All right, where did that comparison go? Yeah, 152 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:51,759 so Beauchamp he's six seven, Miller is six five. Bouchamp's 153 00:09:51,759 --> 00:09:55,679 also younger than Jordan Miller, which is really interesting. So 154 00:09:55,919 --> 00:09:58,000 we're gonna see what happens. I have no idea what 155 00:09:58,039 --> 00:10:01,799 happens with Beauchamp. I don't mean this, uh disrespectfully towards him. 156 00:10:01,799 --> 00:10:03,600 I don't know what his role like. If Jordan Miller's 157 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,399 not getting time, what minutes his boat him gonna take 158 00:10:06,399 --> 00:10:12,799 from Jordan Miller's dock in time? Thank you guy. Yeah, 159 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:18,120 we've seen it. We've seen it a lot. Renee is 160 00:10:18,159 --> 00:10:22,399 not excited. Uh, it's a recipe of disaster. I don't 161 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:27,360 know how it can be a disaster. It's a it's free. 162 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:35,440 It's free. The biggest way that it is a disaster, 163 00:10:36,039 --> 00:10:37,679 which I don't think it's gonna be as if we 164 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,360 see him out there non shooting lineups. We obviously know 165 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:44,559 this team has shooting issues. He needs to be in 166 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,200 a position. He needs to be put in a position 167 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,000 to succeed. It's not like he's a cure all for 168 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:50,480 every lineup. This is a special This is a specialized 169 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:54,519 tool Ben Simmons, that we're getting here. This is not 170 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:58,360 going to be like a do at all. Ben Simmons, right, Like, 171 00:10:58,399 --> 00:11:03,120 it's it's specialty. Ben Simmons, not broad go out there, 172 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:07,039 do you think, Ben Simmons. I don't know if energy 173 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:12,000 is what he's gonna bring. But again, we need him 174 00:11:12,639 --> 00:11:15,320 to make things easier for the second unit, help us 175 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,879 with these elementary turnovers. We have the Clippers. There's been 176 00:11:18,919 --> 00:11:20,559 a lot of talk of the turnovers over the last 177 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,960 two games. They had nineteen. Last three games, they had 178 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:26,440 nineteen against the Pacers, which was a nightmare. They only 179 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,960 had ten in each of the games against the Lakers 180 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:34,360 and the Raptors, but they were ugly turnovers. They're turnovers 181 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,799 where it's like, what are we doing? Their backcourt violations 182 00:11:37,799 --> 00:11:40,799 you're throwing it's horrible. If he can help them cut 183 00:11:40,879 --> 00:11:45,799 down on that, it will be good. Max Skywalker saying 184 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,120 I don't trust Tylu lineups. I think there's some you 185 00:11:49,159 --> 00:11:53,080 cannot trust, but I trust them for the most part. 186 00:11:53,399 --> 00:11:55,679 As of ten forty nine am. We'll see what it 187 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:59,039 looks like when he clears on Monday. So he's gonna 188 00:11:59,039 --> 00:12:02,000 be back, probably play in one of the back to 189 00:12:02,039 --> 00:12:04,960 back games coming up. They have today against the Jazz, 190 00:12:05,279 --> 00:12:07,960 and then they have a back to back in three 191 00:12:08,039 --> 00:12:12,960 days against the Grizzlies and the Jazz again, so that's fun. 192 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:16,200 Josephry Award has sent his thoughts. If you're a real 193 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:21,279 Clippers podcast og, we're gonna go ahead, but Charles Gardner's 194 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:23,919 quote on here because we have the same name. Clippers 195 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,440 recently have revived players careers. Ben will be huge. He's 196 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,759 a scuper player. Go clips. Hell yeah, Charles Gardner, I 197 00:12:28,799 --> 00:12:35,320 hope you're having a good Saturday morning race. Marlin saying 198 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:36,879 I don't know him playing in the same city as 199 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,559 Kendall Jenner contermined into a monster. There's a lot of 200 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:41,840 ups There's a lot of wacky upside here that people 201 00:12:41,879 --> 00:12:46,080 are throwing out, which I appreciate josephry Awards saying he 202 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,279 has the potential to be exactly what we need with 203 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,240 the downside of someone who never sees the four. I'm 204 00:12:51,279 --> 00:12:57,159 hoping we get motivational tie with him, not punishment tie, 205 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,000 which I think is fair. We hope the tie never 206 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,240 plays Derek Jones Junior or Zoo with them. I think 207 00:13:03,279 --> 00:13:07,480 that's fair. It's gonna be a good time. I like 208 00:13:07,519 --> 00:13:10,639 I would add Derek Jones Junior to the list of 209 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:12,759 people that probably shouldn't be on the floor when Ben 210 00:13:12,799 --> 00:13:14,639 Simmons is on the floor. So if we look at 211 00:13:14,639 --> 00:13:17,879 it like that, where Ben Simmons should not share the 212 00:13:17,919 --> 00:13:24,440 floor with Christain Avitza Zubats Dereck Jones Jr. I think 213 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,919 that feels fair in terms of like actual rotation minutes, 214 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,960 that would put him in a position to do what 215 00:13:30,039 --> 00:13:32,120 he's here to do, which is make things easier for 216 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,600 the offense, help us guard up a little bit on 217 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:39,759 defense and things like that. Center j R. Being a 218 00:13:39,759 --> 00:13:44,200 little bored. We need more site. There's no risk, like 219 00:13:44,279 --> 00:13:49,279 it's it's really difficult to be incredibly mad about this. Again, 220 00:13:49,399 --> 00:13:51,919 it's no risk. It's the buyout. They got it done quick, 221 00:13:51,919 --> 00:13:56,679 which I like, so that's good. We just got to 222 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:58,399 see what their rotations look like. If he's put in 223 00:13:58,399 --> 00:14:03,080 a position to succeed, can come in, you know, at 224 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:06,000 the end of the first to make things easier and 225 00:14:06,039 --> 00:14:09,720 stuff like that. People asking about Malcolm Brogden in the chat. 226 00:14:09,799 --> 00:14:13,399 He's staying, but we could not have gotten Malcolm Brogden. 227 00:14:13,919 --> 00:14:17,720 The Wizards want him to stay. I have no idea 228 00:14:17,879 --> 00:14:21,039 why I'm not I would have I wouldn't have mind. 229 00:14:21,039 --> 00:14:23,639 Malcolm Brogen need it. I think that makes total sense. 230 00:14:23,679 --> 00:14:27,399 But he's staying in Washington, so it's not like they 231 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,799 like missed out on him or something like that. Right, 232 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:38,519 So I hope that makes you feel better, Chloe, I dfs, Yeah, 233 00:14:38,639 --> 00:14:40,759 d Flow. You're absolutely right. If Ben and Dunn ever 234 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,480 hit the cord at the same time, super nasty, brutal, 235 00:14:43,679 --> 00:14:47,200 the shooting would be bad. And that's a totally fair 236 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,600 thing to be worried about. It's not it's not crazy 237 00:14:50,639 --> 00:14:52,799 to call to wonder who he should and should not 238 00:14:52,879 --> 00:15:03,480 play with on another not what the hell has been 239 00:15:03,519 --> 00:15:05,320 going on with Kawhi the last few games. He just 240 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:07,159 looks fatigued. He looks like a guy who's coming back, 241 00:15:07,159 --> 00:15:09,600 who's tired. It's shitty. I'm not you know, I'm not 242 00:15:09,639 --> 00:15:11,960 gonna say that it looks good. The defense against the 243 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:16,279 Lakers was rough, but hopefully he's he's getting out of 244 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,559 that soon. But he has looked a little more human. 245 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,759 Perfect game for him to get right against the Jets tonight. Right, 246 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:29,480 Let's hope that that that can happen. But let's hope 247 00:15:29,519 --> 00:15:31,600 it looks better. He needs the rest. All the guys 248 00:15:31,639 --> 00:15:34,519 need a rest. It's been bad. They've they've looked like 249 00:15:34,519 --> 00:15:38,960 a tired team. But yeah, Ben Simmons will be a Clipper, 250 00:15:39,399 --> 00:15:44,919 most likely on Monday, that is when the thing can 251 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,679 be transaction due to the waivers. Uh. Someone did point 252 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,279 out though that Drew Eubanks or no. Bogden's gonna have 253 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:52,799 to change his number though, because I think Bogden picks ten. 254 00:15:53,679 --> 00:15:56,000 We got drama already with the new signings, right Bogin 255 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,240 versus Ben Simmons for the number ten. Maybe they'll play 256 00:15:58,279 --> 00:16:04,480 for it. But I feel pretty good about Yes, jim 257 00:16:04,639 --> 00:16:08,240 L would is this going on pod? Yeah, I'm gonna 258 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:11,000 put this out at audio in like four minutes. It's 259 00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:12,799 my Saturday and I'm going to the game later, so 260 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,720 I can only talk about this that much longer. But 261 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:17,639 this will be on the podcast. And if you're listening 262 00:16:17,679 --> 00:16:19,440 to this later and you want to hang out, check 263 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,159 out YouTube dot com at Clippers Podcast. It's a very 264 00:16:22,159 --> 00:16:25,440 fun time. Jimmy, g just limit the damn turnovers. That's 265 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,799 kind of where I'm at. If Ben Simmons can come in, 266 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,639 be put into a position with the bench line up 267 00:16:30,639 --> 00:16:34,039 where they're shooting around him and there's not two non shooters, 268 00:16:34,559 --> 00:16:40,720 just limit the turnovers. Play plus okay, plus good to 269 00:16:40,799 --> 00:16:45,759 plus defense and it will be a good signing. Again, 270 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:50,000 it's free people, as Sinner Jr. Is saying, excuse me, 271 00:16:51,639 --> 00:16:57,960 it is free. It's free real estate, as some would say. 272 00:16:59,159 --> 00:17:02,799 I yeah, so we probably will see hack of Ben, 273 00:17:02,879 --> 00:17:06,400 but like I mean, he's not gonna be in. I 274 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:10,160 don't know. We gotta see what's gonna happen. The rotations 275 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,359 are gonna be important. We'll probably get hack of Ben, 276 00:17:13,519 --> 00:17:16,559 but like it's again, this is where you know, we 277 00:17:16,599 --> 00:17:19,519 gotta watch Tyler with how much he plays him. If 278 00:17:19,559 --> 00:17:22,920 teams do this, I don't like. I don't think. I 279 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:26,160 don't think hack of Ben is gonna be a huge 280 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:31,720 problem for this team. Like, I just don't. People are 281 00:17:31,759 --> 00:17:37,039 reposting the hilarious clip of Cowherd saying, hey, Lebron, Ben 282 00:17:37,079 --> 00:17:42,519 Simmons is here, We're all good. That's a great point 283 00:17:42,519 --> 00:17:44,920 by Andy. Norm Bogey and you Banks can combine for 284 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:48,599 forty one million expiring salary next season. That could bring 285 00:17:48,599 --> 00:17:51,359 in some disgruntled stars. Yeah, let's bring in disgruntled stars. 286 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:55,799 I don't know what's gonna happen next season. Ben Simmons 287 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:58,359 is a Clipper. Well, he will be on Monday, because 288 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,720 that's how things clear. Let's hope out. It's hope it 289 00:18:01,759 --> 00:18:04,839 goes okay, Really watch for what rotations he's put into. 290 00:18:05,039 --> 00:18:07,240 We don't want him out there with non shooters or 291 00:18:07,319 --> 00:18:10,000 one other non shooter that cannot happen. That will be 292 00:18:10,079 --> 00:18:14,960 bad for the Clippers. But there's obviously a path for 293 00:18:15,039 --> 00:18:18,839 him to help impact this team. It was free. Let's 294 00:18:18,839 --> 00:18:20,720 hope it works out. Let's also hope that the Clippers 295 00:18:20,759 --> 00:18:23,279 beat the damn Jazz tonight. If you see Adam or 296 00:18:23,319 --> 00:18:24,880 Will and I at the game, say what's up? We 297 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,599 should be there might be hooping out front before, so 298 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,519 who knows. Thanks for hanging out. I have things I 299 00:18:30,599 --> 00:18:33,200 was going to go do. Let's hope there's more good news. 300 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,519 I guess we'll do a live if there is. Have 301 00:18:35,599 --> 00:18:38,559 a good rest of your weekend, and let's let's go clips. 302 00:18:38,599 --> 00:18:40,359 We need this win tonight. Let's beat the jazz. It 303 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:41,440 always feels good to beat the jazz.
