1 00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:15,119 Speaker 1: What is going on? Clippers fans, Welcome to a bit 2 00:00:15,119 --> 00:00:19,440 of an impromptu trade deadline hang. If you're listening to 3 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:22,519 this later on any of the audio platforms, thanks for 4 00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:24,960 listening to us. We really appreciate it. If you want 5 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,800 to watch this podcast, if you want to see us 6 00:00:28,839 --> 00:00:32,560 do some postgames stuff, you can find us at YouTube 7 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:38,079 dot com slash at Clippers podcast Big News. A pillar 8 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:43,520 of the Clippers culture I think was moved today. Terrence 9 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:48,600 Man is no longer a Clipper. Unfortunate bummer, but all 10 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:52,640 in all, it's better for both parties involved in this. 11 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:56,640 For sure, Terrence Man was out of the rotation, he 12 00:00:56,759 --> 00:00:59,039 was not getting meaningful minutes, he was not having the 13 00:00:59,079 --> 00:01:04,879 best season. It's tough, you know, emotionally. But the move 14 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:07,959 the Clippers trade, excuse me, the move the Clippers made 15 00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:10,640 makes a lot of sense. It was Terrence Man and 16 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:15,280 Bones Highland for Bogdan Bogdanovich and three second round picks, 17 00:01:16,079 --> 00:01:19,359 which might tell you something about how Bogden Bogdanovic has 18 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:23,239 been playing and some of these ticky tacky injuries he's 19 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:27,319 had to deal with so far this season. It's been 20 00:01:27,439 --> 00:01:33,760 his statistically kind of his worst year in uh in 21 00:01:33,799 --> 00:01:38,599 the league so far, but he's you know, it pairs 22 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,519 the rotation down. The Clippers also moved Kevin Porter Junior 23 00:01:42,439 --> 00:01:44,319 for someone who I don't think is going to play 24 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:51,439 very much in Marjon Beauchamp. I don't know how many 25 00:01:51,439 --> 00:01:56,079 minutes he's gonna play, but yeah, it's it's a bit 26 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:59,120 of a bummer. Renzo the old head. I'm I'm older 27 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,239 than him, so that man will be missed, but it 28 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,159 had to be done. He will get cheers from his 29 00:02:03,239 --> 00:02:05,519 fan base anytime he steps on the court Game six 30 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,639 and gave five duck ungle Beart will always be remembered. 31 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:13,199 Couldn't have said it better myself. A very weird tenure 32 00:02:13,199 --> 00:02:15,479 for Terrence. He did everything the Clippers asked him to do. 33 00:02:15,879 --> 00:02:19,319 He played multiple positions, you know, in the same seven 34 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,680 day stretch, but there was a bit of a plateau 35 00:02:21,759 --> 00:02:26,280 development wise, and it just made sense for the Clippers. 36 00:02:26,319 --> 00:02:28,800 Nothing but love for Terrence Man. You know, on this podcast, 37 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,280 we love Terrence Man, but it was time to move 38 00:02:32,319 --> 00:02:34,960 on for both parties. Hopefully he can go to Atlanta, 39 00:02:35,319 --> 00:02:37,639 get some playing time, get back into form, because when 40 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:41,960 he is playing well, he can really help a team. 41 00:02:43,159 --> 00:02:46,000 How this helps the Clippers. Well, the rotation, like I mentioned, 42 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,520 is paired down right, we don't have to do any 43 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,599 more of this. Who's the backup too? You know? Is 44 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,360 Terrence gonna play tonight? Is KPJ gonna play tonight? We 45 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:58,840 don't really know, Law Murray tweeting out that Bogdanovic should 46 00:02:58,879 --> 00:03:03,319 be looked at as Kevin Junior's replacement. So as of now, 47 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:08,000 it would appear that the backcourt off the bench is 48 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:13,719 going to be Chris Dunn and Bogden, which is, hey, okay, 49 00:03:15,319 --> 00:03:16,960 you got the defense there with Chris done a point 50 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,560 of attack. Law also said this, really I thought this 51 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:25,439 interesting thing about like not thinking of it in terms 52 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:29,240 of a backup point guard and more like a play starter, 53 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,719 you know, kind of being asked to do different things 54 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,560 depending on who you're on the floor with. So Ty 55 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,680 still has some stuff to figure out how we're gonna 56 00:03:38,759 --> 00:03:42,280 use these guys. But again, if Bogden can get back 57 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:47,719 anywhere close to what his his averages from three, the 58 00:03:47,719 --> 00:03:49,719 Clippers are gonna be great. He's a career thirty eight 59 00:03:49,719 --> 00:03:53,080 percent shooter from deep. He's at thirty percent this year. 60 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,879 He's bad. He's also at his worst field goal percentage 61 00:03:55,919 --> 00:04:01,280 so theoretically, again I'm saying, theoretically should be moving up, 62 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:05,599 and it looks like if it ends up working out, 63 00:04:05,599 --> 00:04:07,560 it's a wonderful trade for the Clippers. They get these 64 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:11,120 seconds which people were upset about when we traded for 65 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,319 Drew Eubanks, So now we get one of those back. 66 00:04:16,319 --> 00:04:19,839 So it's gonna be interesting. Ursula is asking why do 67 00:04:19,879 --> 00:04:22,360 you think the Hawks agreed to this trade? I couldn't 68 00:04:22,399 --> 00:04:24,519 tell you. I do not know why the Hawks agreed 69 00:04:24,519 --> 00:04:26,199 to this trade. They get Bones Highland to be their 70 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,519 backup point guard. I mean, for they're kind of a 71 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,160 lost franchise, like where they're going wise, you know what 72 00:04:33,199 --> 00:04:35,759 I mean. So I think it's just a weird move 73 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,959 that a weird front office does, Like I just think 74 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:46,079 that's what happens. Jeremy Mormon asking what do you think 75 00:04:46,079 --> 00:04:48,000 they're going to do with the second round picks? Do 76 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:49,199 you think they're going to make a move in the 77 00:04:49,199 --> 00:04:51,000 offseason or do you think you're gonna use them to 78 00:04:51,079 --> 00:04:54,720 draft players? I don't know second round picks. I don't 79 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,240 mean this disrespectfully. I lose track of them as soon 80 00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:00,000 as they come into the play, into the mix until 81 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,600 they're traded how many do we We got three when 82 00:05:02,639 --> 00:05:05,879 we got Luke Canard, we get three here. They just 83 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,639 they're kind of like water. I don't I don't know 84 00:05:08,639 --> 00:05:13,040 what they're gonna do with them. Probably draft a big 85 00:05:13,079 --> 00:05:16,040 who can't shoot very well, as my guess with the 86 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:21,399 second round picks, So we'll see. Kevin Porter Junior also 87 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,959 moved off the team, which I'm gonna be honest, I 88 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,879 was a little surprised about this, just based on how 89 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:30,839 much time he was getting and seemingly the fact that 90 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:34,560 he just was cemented as the backup point guard. But 91 00:05:34,639 --> 00:05:38,680 he's been traded in Milwaukee for Marjohn Beauchamp. I don't 92 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,959 know a whole lot about boat Champ. I don't think 93 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,959 he's gonna be the backup point guard. Well, we'll see 94 00:05:44,959 --> 00:05:47,160 what happens. We'll see if he if he plays meaningful 95 00:05:47,199 --> 00:05:49,639 minutes for this Clippers team. I don't think it's gonna 96 00:05:49,639 --> 00:05:54,439 happen tonight against the Pacers, obviously, so it'll be interesting there. 97 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:59,040 And now everything kind of moves towards the buyout market, 98 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:03,959 right lot Murray saying, you know, Ben Simmons is going 99 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,560 to be a big target for the Clippers. I think 100 00:06:06,639 --> 00:06:09,279 he's gonna be a big target for most teams on 101 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:13,480 a buyout. It's hard to dislike the idea of Ben 102 00:06:13,519 --> 00:06:17,600 Simmons again for absolutely free on the buyout market. Malcolm 103 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:21,079 Brogden is another guy whose name has come up a lot. 104 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,279 We thought the Clippers had a trade for Malcolm Brogden 105 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:28,480 not too long ago, and then that was mixed. So 106 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:30,560 I don't know what's gonna happen. I think they could 107 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:35,720 maybe sign both if they really wanted to, but probably 108 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:39,800 Ben Simmons is the focus right now. Will Updyke, another 109 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:45,279 host of this pod, really wants Ben Simmons, which would 110 00:06:45,319 --> 00:06:47,759 be interesting. Yeap Tory Craig off the market. He's off 111 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,160 to Boston. Can't blame him. Why would you not go 112 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:55,319 there if you were Craig? But Ben, I don't. I mean, 113 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,920 there's like other than Ben Simmons and Malcolm Brogden, Like 114 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,160 who else? Do we really want it to be on 115 00:07:01,199 --> 00:07:07,360 a buyout for this Clippers team? Oh, they're saying Brogden 116 00:07:07,439 --> 00:07:12,199 is staying well and it's Ben Simmons. Baby. Some did 117 00:07:12,199 --> 00:07:14,160 point out it would be fun to have a Bogden 118 00:07:14,319 --> 00:07:18,480 and a Brogden on the team. That'd be a good 119 00:07:18,519 --> 00:07:21,879 time Okay, yeah, here we go, David Aldridge. The Wizards 120 00:07:21,879 --> 00:07:26,240 are holding on to Malcolm Brogden because they believe that 121 00:07:26,279 --> 00:07:28,480 he and newly acquired Chris Milton and Smart would be 122 00:07:28,519 --> 00:07:31,199 good mentors for the young Guards and Wings. We'll see. 123 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,959 Lonzo Ball is absolutely not available. Lonzo Ball signed a 124 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:42,399 contract extension, so we are not getting Lonzo Ball. Sorry 125 00:07:42,439 --> 00:07:47,800 to burst anyone's bubble there, There's been some Larry Nance 126 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:49,759 has Like there's a couple of people in the chat 127 00:07:49,839 --> 00:07:52,240 right now who are who wanted Larry Nance. He's kind 128 00:07:52,279 --> 00:07:54,800 of been on the the buy out. Maybe we should 129 00:07:54,839 --> 00:07:57,399 get this guy radar for the Clippers for a little bit. 130 00:08:00,319 --> 00:08:05,000 I don't for a team that's like trying to get 131 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:09,040 who needs maybe a younger, more athletic piece for defense. 132 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,800 I don't know if Larry Nance is the right move. 133 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:13,959 I'm not like mad at it. He's a great locker 134 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:21,079 room guy. He's I mean, you know, he's not terrible, right, 135 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:29,399 but I'm not sure defensively it's necessarily what the Clippers 136 00:08:29,839 --> 00:08:34,039 would be looking for. He's played twenty games this season, 137 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,519 but again, this is buyout, so like it's hard to 138 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:41,759 be like, you know, arguing between Ben Simmons and Larry 139 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:46,320 Nance Junior. Everyone wins or loses, depending how you look 140 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:52,200 at it. Yeah, here we go LaMelo and maybe he's Ion. 141 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:56,799 Yeah coming soon, let's do it. But yeah, I mean 142 00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:00,000 I thought this deadline was gonna be kind of quiet 143 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,080 than it was for the Clippers, and then they moved Terrence. Man, 144 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,600 it is relatively quiet, right, There wasn't any real big 145 00:09:05,639 --> 00:09:08,919 swings to have. How much better do you think the 146 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,600 Clippers got after this trade deadline? There's gonna be some 147 00:09:11,639 --> 00:09:15,440 buyout candidates, but I think they're slightly better, for sure. 148 00:09:15,799 --> 00:09:18,879 I think they're better in the sense that we understand 149 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:26,399 the rotation more now there's less moves for Tylou to 150 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,240 kind of make with the rotation, because I was a 151 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,360 little concerned about that. As we went forward, it was like, 152 00:09:31,399 --> 00:09:34,799 what we need a clear cut rotation, right, we had 153 00:09:34,799 --> 00:09:37,679 this rotating starting lineup. It became very apparent that Derek 154 00:09:37,759 --> 00:09:41,879 Jones Junior should be in that starting spot instead of 155 00:09:41,919 --> 00:09:44,440 Chris Done, which is great. Now we get a little 156 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,399 more flexibility off the bench, a guy who in Bogden 157 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:52,399 who does fit well with this team. For sure. I'm 158 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,279 still a little worried about backup center. But I guess 159 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:57,360 that's where you get Ben Simmons to come in and 160 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:02,279 effectively be a small ball back up center. Nico needs 161 00:10:02,279 --> 00:10:05,000 a break. He's a little older, He's gonna be asked 162 00:10:05,039 --> 00:10:07,440 to play center in the playoffs, and we just need 163 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:12,240 someone to maybe spell him a little bit. And yeah, 164 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:17,000 you know, I'm not mad at Ben Simmons for the backup. Yeah, 165 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,480 Chris g sand kind of the idea of the shooting, 166 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,159 especially from Bogden, because it's been really bad this year, 167 00:10:23,159 --> 00:10:28,480 but it should get better. It would be nice. Ursula's 168 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,879 got the plug, uh saying both Clippers and Cavs eyeing 169 00:10:31,879 --> 00:10:34,600 Ben Simmons. I think, yeah, a lot of teams. All 170 00:10:34,639 --> 00:10:38,360 the reports are like a lot of teams are gonna 171 00:10:38,399 --> 00:10:43,120 be eyeing Ben Simmons. Hey, the Clipper is gonna offer 172 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:48,759 him a pretty big role and he brings you. If 173 00:10:48,799 --> 00:10:50,799 you're not asking him to shoot, you're not asking him 174 00:10:50,799 --> 00:10:53,440 to do anything but basically move the ball and place 175 00:10:53,759 --> 00:10:58,000 solid defense, which he can still do. I think, so 176 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,320 Ben Simmons in the role the Clippers would have for 177 00:11:00,399 --> 00:11:03,840 him in that, please just play defense, Please move the ball, 178 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,679 make the cuts. When you make the cuts, signal for 179 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:08,559 the oop when you got it. I think would be 180 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:15,320 great for a backup center role. Hi okay, Cat saying Hi, 181 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:22,840 say what's up, Bravy. Yes, so this is a great point. 182 00:11:22,879 --> 00:11:24,639 If we can get the Boggan that was going shot 183 00:11:24,639 --> 00:11:26,600 for shot with Team USA, we get a lot better. 184 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,600 Hell yeah we do. That was an awesome Bogden. Bogden 185 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,360 also hates the Lakers with the passion, which I think 186 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,240 helps this team. Maybe that's why they got him after 187 00:11:35,279 --> 00:11:39,919 getting our asses handed to us the other night. M 188 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:48,759 Greggy saying, Kelly olynok and Lonnie Walker available. I dislike 189 00:11:48,799 --> 00:11:52,240 Olenick as a just as a fan. I don't like Olyenic, 190 00:11:52,279 --> 00:11:53,919 but I think he would be good for the Clippers 191 00:11:54,000 --> 00:12:01,679 team Jeffrey saying, honestly, I was so take pouschere over Boggie. 192 00:12:01,919 --> 00:12:06,759 Ship is sailed. Man, I don't know what to tell you, sorry, 193 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,000 but that's where we are. I don't we can't Microman like, 194 00:12:11,039 --> 00:12:14,600 what are we gonna do here? Watch the Raptors. I 195 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:16,440 guess I don't know. It would be cool. I bet 196 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,080 they called for him, but they couldn't make the move. 197 00:12:20,919 --> 00:12:23,240 Max asking, so overwhile, did we get better or no? 198 00:12:23,799 --> 00:12:25,840 I think the Clippers got better they got better in 199 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,440 a very boring way, which is shoring up the bench 200 00:12:28,519 --> 00:12:32,679 rotation and the rotation overall, and what Bogie should be 201 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,960 able to bring in terms of shooting. Not looking at 202 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,000 this year, but holistically, I think it makes the team better. 203 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,799 Does it make them some kind of super contender that 204 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:46,799 now has some way better chance of getting out of 205 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:53,559 the first round? Not necessarily, but they are better right 206 00:12:53,639 --> 00:12:56,639 like this, I think the rotation is settled for the 207 00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,159 most part. We'll see how the buyout plays out, which 208 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:02,120 could take a while to wait. Buyouts kind of take 209 00:13:02,159 --> 00:13:04,919 a weird amount of time, So don't don't hope for 210 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:11,120 a ton of news on that. Yeah, Ursula a great point. 211 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:12,720 I think we got better as long as we didn't 212 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:17,879 compromise our defense. Totally agree. We kept we didn't lose 213 00:13:17,879 --> 00:13:19,919 any defense in any of these trades, which is great. 214 00:13:19,919 --> 00:13:23,360 We kept Chris Dunn, Terrence Man's defense, the idea of 215 00:13:23,399 --> 00:13:27,240 it is there. He just wasn't playing bones not lose 216 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:32,639 any defense with that. So here we are. We are back. Yes, 217 00:13:33,039 --> 00:13:36,320 addition by subtraction yet again, that is the theme of 218 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:40,440 this season. Thank you Norm Powell and thank you John 219 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:51,080 for putting that on. Yeah, because he actually shoots. Bogey 220 00:13:51,159 --> 00:13:53,519 is a better version of Cannard because he actually shoots 221 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:57,720 the ball. Oscar is upset. We can't win a damn trade. 222 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:02,679 How did we lose the Bogdanovitch trade? What? How did 223 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,879 we lose that trade? We didn't lose that trade. In 224 00:14:05,879 --> 00:14:07,840 the say we traded two guys who don't play for 225 00:14:07,879 --> 00:14:11,879 a guy who's going to be the backup two guard. 226 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,159 I don't consider that a loss. I don't consider it 227 00:14:15,159 --> 00:14:18,440 a loss. And those three seconds could be anything. They 228 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:24,759 could even be another Terrence Man. Yeah, getting Ben Simmons again, 229 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:30,639 buy out like we can maintain the defense. Nayerbot asking 230 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,000 of the new additions, is Bognen the only one that 231 00:14:33,039 --> 00:14:37,240 gets actual minutes? I'm choosing to believe actual minutes as 232 00:14:37,279 --> 00:14:39,840 you mean, like meaningful minutes, right, And the answer is yes. 233 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:44,000 Drew Eubanks, we'll probably see an expanded role for him tonight, 234 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:46,960 but I don't really know what that looks like in 235 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,639 the locker room. But Boggin's gonna get real minutes. Bogin's 236 00:14:49,679 --> 00:14:55,320 going to be the second guy off the bench for 237 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,639 a playoff team, so he's very much getting real minutes. 238 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,720 John Paul wants to know. What about Beauchamp. I don't know. Man, 239 00:15:03,799 --> 00:15:05,840 he averages two points a game. I can't see him 240 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:11,559 making a huge impact. I just don't think he's gonna 241 00:15:11,559 --> 00:15:13,200 get a bunch of it. There's no disrespect on him. 242 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,320 I'm not super familiar with his game looking at the stats, 243 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:21,360 I don't see him taking anyone's place in this, uh 244 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:27,360 this lineup for the Clippers. Maybe, but also I just 245 00:15:27,399 --> 00:15:30,360 I don't think it's a very good shot. No disrespect 246 00:15:30,399 --> 00:15:32,159 to the guy. Go follow him on Twitter. He'll follow 247 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,519 you back. That was happening a bunch, but it's not. 248 00:15:35,639 --> 00:15:37,600 You know, we trade out the backup point guard for Beauchamp. 249 00:15:37,679 --> 00:15:41,159 I just don't he's not taken. He's not Whose minutes 250 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:45,919 is he taken? Oh damn. Sorry to Jason Davis as 251 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,320 a diehard FSU and Clippers fan, it's a tough day. 252 00:15:48,559 --> 00:15:50,720 Will miss Man. Hate to see him go. It was tough. 253 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,039 There's a lot of great memories with Terrence Man. He 254 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,279 hated he hates Luca, which we all love. Obviously, Game six, 255 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:04,080 the Game five dunk was awesome. Really series against Dallas two. Hey, 256 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:06,799 so it's tough. Sorry. I hope you have the Terrence 257 00:16:06,799 --> 00:16:12,639 man Fsu Jersey. That's pretty sick, actually, one hundred percent 258 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,720 welcome to the Canoes. But also moving KPJ for the 259 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,039 player that they moved him for in boat Champ opens 260 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,080 up some opportunities for Jordan Miller, right, Like, I don't 261 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,279 think Jordan Miller and bow Champ are that far apart 262 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,960 in terms of where they are, So this does, hopefully, theoretically, 263 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,320 if you want to pull the strings, open up some 264 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:36,519 more time time for Jordan Miller. So it'll be interesting. Hi, Yeah, 265 00:16:36,559 --> 00:16:40,360 you gotta get out of here. He is. He is 266 00:16:40,559 --> 00:16:47,480 very much on the Canoes, though, Wami saying, and this 267 00:16:47,519 --> 00:16:50,200 is a fair question, apart from his obvious flaws, what 268 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,080 is the justification for trading our only backup ball handler? 269 00:16:54,039 --> 00:16:57,759 The justification is you don't have to worry about what 270 00:16:57,799 --> 00:17:00,159 the hell the rotation looks like, and you've set a 271 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:04,680 bench rotation for the backcourt as Kris Don and Bogden. 272 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,960 I mean that that's the justification. I was. I agree. 273 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,319 I was surprised, just from a pure basketball perspective how 274 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:17,200 much KPJ was allowed to do for the team, But 275 00:17:17,559 --> 00:17:20,759 this shows up the rotation. There was a I said 276 00:17:20,759 --> 00:17:22,599 it earlier, but it's kind of like it's not so 277 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:24,720 much like backup ball hands. I just can you set 278 00:17:24,759 --> 00:17:30,799 shit up? Like, I don't know, they know how to 279 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:34,559 get things going better, you know, to the front office's eyes. 280 00:17:34,839 --> 00:17:37,480 But it's a totally fair question because it is like, okay, 281 00:17:37,759 --> 00:17:41,640 like Brogden staying too, so that kind of takes off 282 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:44,920 one of the possible other you know, backup ball handlers. 283 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:49,599 So we'll see how it works. J C. C Asking 284 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,359 I wonder why we didn't get a stretch for because 285 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:56,039 there's none available, Like what what stretch for are we 286 00:17:56,079 --> 00:17:59,119 going to get? This person's concerned that the Lakers and 287 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,279 the Nuggets are too big for us. I don't know, man, 288 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:07,559 I guess that's never really been like, we've never been 289 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,000 like beat because you're not. We have one of the 290 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,440 we have a top ten center, which helps. Bogden is 291 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:17,880 not a small two, you know what I mean. I 292 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:21,119 think they're gonna be okay. Again. This team is a 293 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:26,319 this team is a let's get out of the first 294 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:34,480 round safely team, and that's where they're at right now. Yeah, 295 00:18:34,519 --> 00:18:36,640 I think this is totally fair. Gregy saying, I think 296 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,119 we need more shot makers. I feel we have enough defense. 297 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,480 Not enough offense. That's where you hope that Bogden shooting 298 00:18:42,519 --> 00:18:45,319 comes back up right again. Career thirty eight percent shooter, 299 00:18:45,759 --> 00:18:48,640 really down in the dumps this year, so we hope 300 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:53,079 that goes back up. It's not been very good this year. 301 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:56,680 I'm not gonna pretend that, but we just that we 302 00:18:56,759 --> 00:18:59,960 hope that it gets back to his usual career splits 303 00:19:00,079 --> 00:19:08,759 from outside for sure. Alfredo Rodriguez of the teams who 304 00:19:08,799 --> 00:19:12,599 made major trade Spurs, Warriors, Lakers rank them in terms, 305 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:18,480 It's the Lakers, but that's obviously the Lakers. They added 306 00:19:18,559 --> 00:19:24,000 Luka donc it's the damn Nightmare. It's the I'm not 307 00:19:24,079 --> 00:19:29,640 the Warriors whatever. The Spurs are very annoying, which is 308 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,039 which is not fun, But it's the Lakers. They added 309 00:19:32,039 --> 00:19:37,920 the they added the best player. So Jonathan Gonzalez I 310 00:19:38,039 --> 00:19:41,279 like this point. Doesn't it suck not having a Zoo 311 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,319 back up? It does. Someday I'm gonna write a very 312 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:49,880 long winded book about how everything has gone wrong since 313 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:53,240 the Clippers traded Hartenstein. It is weird. We'll see what 314 00:19:53,319 --> 00:19:55,880 Drew Eubanks looks like. He said all the right things, 315 00:19:56,319 --> 00:19:58,240 and the pressers right. He just wants to be there 316 00:19:58,279 --> 00:20:00,480 to fill in give gives you a break and stuff 317 00:20:00,519 --> 00:20:03,599 like that, but it does kind of suck right now. 318 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:13,319 It's a little murky, and we hope that if they 319 00:20:13,319 --> 00:20:15,519 do get Ben Simmons on the buyout, that's kind of 320 00:20:15,559 --> 00:20:18,119 the small ball five backups, so you can give Nico 321 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,839 a break a little bit, I think. So we just 322 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:23,880 have to wait and see how the buyout market works, 323 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,599 but it does kind of suck. If they get Ben Simmons, 324 00:20:27,599 --> 00:20:29,079 it makes me feel a little bit better because it's 325 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:31,960 just more bodies you can put at the five position 326 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,440 for the Clippers, So that would make me feel a 327 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:36,920 little bit better than I do as of now. But 328 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:41,319 it's a completely fair point, mister Gonzales, that it does 329 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,319 kind of suck to not have like a true backup 330 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:46,079 for Zoo talk about swings and missus. The Clippers and 331 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:50,519 backup centers have been bad these last couple of seasons. 332 00:20:52,319 --> 00:20:54,559 You saying, Tyler, you are gonna play Patty Mills like 333 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,160 KPJ was on the Clippers. Wouldn't be surprised. Hope that 334 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:01,200 doesn't happen. We might see some Patty minutes, but I 335 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:06,839 don't think that's gonna happen. Yes, the perfect sentiment from 336 00:21:06,839 --> 00:21:09,920 GREGI here, John Wallover, Hartenstein, damn you PG could not 337 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:18,559 agree more with this sentiment right here. Yeah, there's a 338 00:21:18,599 --> 00:21:20,720 lot of people really freaking out just doing a numbers 339 00:21:20,759 --> 00:21:23,680 thing here. And the two rotational guys the Clippers lost. 340 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:29,519 Bone's not a rotational guy. Terrence was borderline not a 341 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:34,559 rotational guy. He wasn't getting minutes, and the KPJ one, 342 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,640 it was a little surprising to see him traded. I'm 343 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:42,640 not going to pretend that T D yes absolutely. Who 344 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:45,200 else is available on the buyout market who can possibly 345 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:49,160 play the backup five. There's been Larry Nance Jr. There's 346 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,559 been Ben Simmons. I guess I would go the younger, 347 00:21:51,839 --> 00:21:57,039 the younger option. I think that's kind of what I 348 00:21:57,079 --> 00:22:02,119 would lean towards, would be the younger again buy out arguing, 349 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:07,559 you know, trying to debate Larry Nance over over Ben Simmons. 350 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,799 I don't know if anyone's winning that argument. I don't 351 00:22:10,799 --> 00:22:18,319 mean that disrespectfully. So yeah, I feel pretty good, right 352 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:21,200 I don't. It's hard to feel like upset if you 353 00:22:21,279 --> 00:22:23,839 take kind of holistically what the Clippers had to work with, 354 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:27,160 which is not a lot, especially in draft capital, they 355 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:30,279 got better. They short up their rotation. You traded two 356 00:22:30,319 --> 00:22:32,200 guys who don't play for a guy who's going to 357 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:35,880 be your backup two. You traded your backup one, which 358 00:22:36,039 --> 00:22:38,759 we'll see how this works, because evidently they believe in 359 00:22:38,839 --> 00:22:41,240 Chris Dunn and the idea that Bogden can kind of 360 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:45,359 do what they're supposed to do. Uh with the offense 361 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:52,440 as backups. And there you go. The Clippers had no 362 00:22:52,599 --> 00:22:55,559 first round picks to trade. Let's just everyone chill about that. 363 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:57,880 I know it's hard to having Fomo's real when every 364 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:01,720 other team is making a bunch of trades. The Fomo's real. 365 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:10,960 Jeffrey Herrera asking what seed do we think the Clippers 366 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:14,039 will finish at? Right now? They are the sixth seed. 367 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:16,839 The team above them, who is two and a half 368 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:20,519 games ahead, just got Luka Doncic. They are three and 369 00:23:20,519 --> 00:23:23,359 a half games behind the Nuggets, and they are a 370 00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:29,599 half game up on the seven seed Timberwolves. I think 371 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:37,119 we're looking at I mean six and seven and eight. 372 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:43,359 Feel where we're gonna be. I think it's six, seven 373 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:47,599 or eight. Let's undrespect to the Clippers. The Lakers got better. 374 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:51,319 We don't know what the MAVs look like but I 375 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:55,519 think they got better. They got worse. I take that 376 00:23:55,559 --> 00:23:58,039 back immediately. So I think they're gonna be like that 377 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:00,240 six to seven or eight. I don't know if they're gonna 378 00:24:00,279 --> 00:24:01,920 be able to climb to five. With what the Lakers 379 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:07,839 have done, it's gonna be tough. Yeah, I think it's 380 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:10,680 gonna stay at six. Okay, I'm heading out. Thank you 381 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:12,240 everyone for hanging out. This is gonna be up in 382 00:24:12,319 --> 00:24:18,519 audio later tonight. We're doing a full crew episode tomorrow 383 00:24:21,039 --> 00:24:24,079 with myself, Adam and will go watch Adam over on 384 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:26,279 Clippers Talk. Let's hope the Clippers get a win tonight. 385 00:24:26,319 --> 00:24:30,759 The Pacers are gonna be annoying, but let's hope that 386 00:24:30,799 --> 00:24:33,039 we get a win tonight. We'll talk to y'all tomorrow. 387 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,720 As always, Let's go Clips. Welcome the new Clippers with 388 00:24:35,759 --> 00:24:38,079 open arms. It's gonna be a good time.
