<v Speaker 1>Phoning in.

2
00:00:02.960 --> 00:00:05.440
<v Speaker 2>We're taking your calls on the LA Clippers right now.

3
00:00:05.599 --> 00:00:08.800

00:00:08.800 --> 00:00:11.960
<v Speaker 1>Show of Record, your chance to react to everything.

5
00:00:11.560 --> 00:00:13.759
<v Speaker 2>Clippers Clippers news happens.

6
00:00:14.400 --> 00:00:15.839
<v Speaker 1>Let me guess it's about Kawhi.

7
00:00:15.919 --> 00:00:18.359
<v Speaker 3>Here we are and now here he is the host

8
00:00:18.399 --> 00:00:21.480
<v Speaker 3>of your LA Clippers free and postgame.

9
00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:26.879
<v Speaker 2>At follow Adam a Adam Ousley Well at Green Ranger.

10
00:00:27.640 --> 00:00:32.320
<v Speaker 2>Candle still has some wax on it as Kawhi almost

11
00:00:33.079 --> 00:00:36.719
<v Speaker 2>wax the Lakers with his thirty three on twenty three shots,

12
00:00:36.840 --> 00:00:39.560
<v Speaker 2>his best performance of the season in Game twenty for him,

13
00:00:40.200 --> 00:00:42.119
<v Speaker 2>but the Clippers still fall to the Lakers one o

14
00:00:42.240 --> 00:00:45.359
<v Speaker 2>eight to one oh two in a miserable shooting game.

15
00:00:45.840 --> 00:00:49.920
<v Speaker 2>From just about everybody else on the squad, welcome in.

16
00:00:50.679 --> 00:00:54.240
<v Speaker 2>It's clipperstock. I'm Adam Moslin. Eight six six nine eight

17
00:00:54.280 --> 00:00:56.840
<v Speaker 2>seven two five seventy eight six six ninety seven two

18
00:00:56.840 --> 00:00:59.119
<v Speaker 2>five seventy is the phone number. This is not Clippers

19
00:00:59.159 --> 00:01:00.960
<v Speaker 2>Talk after dark yet, So if you do call in,

20
00:01:01.600 --> 00:01:08.000
<v Speaker 2>we're on the radio. Keep it PG. It is a

21
00:01:08.079 --> 00:01:11.400
<v Speaker 2>loss at the end of the day, my man, it

22
00:01:11.480 --> 00:01:15.599
<v Speaker 2>is a loss. Are there more important things that I

23
00:01:15.640 --> 00:01:18.599
<v Speaker 2>saw in this game. To me, that tell you about

24
00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:25.560
<v Speaker 2>the Clippers' long term health. Yeah. I saw Kawhi Leonard

25
00:01:25.560 --> 00:01:28.760
<v Speaker 2>tonight for the first time this season. I really saw

26
00:01:28.840 --> 00:01:34.200
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi Leonard, the version of Kawhi they need to have

27
00:01:34.280 --> 00:01:40.680
<v Speaker 2>success moving forward. They played through Kawhi thirty three on

28
00:01:40.760 --> 00:01:45.599
<v Speaker 2>twenty three shots is ridiculous efficiency. He outplayed Lebron, he

29
00:01:45.640 --> 00:01:50.040
<v Speaker 2>outplayed Luca. The difference. The Clippers didn't have a Dalton

30
00:01:50.079 --> 00:01:54.599
<v Speaker 2>connect who went five of eight unbelievably, They didn't have

31
00:01:54.760 --> 00:01:56.760
<v Speaker 2>a guy like Shake Milton go two of two from

32
00:01:56.799 --> 00:02:02.799
<v Speaker 2>three in his eight minutes timely shots. Niko goes two

33
00:02:02.879 --> 00:02:08.400
<v Speaker 2>of three. I thought he played well. Bogdanovich ended up

34
00:02:08.520 --> 00:02:11.319
<v Speaker 2>four for eleven after I think he started one of

35
00:02:11.400 --> 00:02:19.360
<v Speaker 2>six from the outside. James Harden went two of nine

36
00:02:19.479 --> 00:02:23.599
<v Speaker 2>after going five of twenty two Friday night, he goes

37
00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:30.159
<v Speaker 2>four to fourteen. He shot twenty five percent on nine

38
00:02:30.159 --> 00:02:33.840
<v Speaker 2>of thirty six shooting in these two games against the Lakers.

39
00:02:34.680 --> 00:02:40.439
<v Speaker 2>That is inexcusable. That's not good enough, and it is

40
00:02:40.520 --> 00:02:43.639
<v Speaker 2>brutal to watch a guy miss wide open three after

41
00:02:43.719 --> 00:02:48.439
<v Speaker 2>wide open three late. Chris Dunn went one of five

42
00:02:48.479 --> 00:02:50.439
<v Speaker 2>from three. But I'm not put place in any blame

43
00:02:50.520 --> 00:02:53.840
<v Speaker 2>on him. He was incredible and gave him a chance late.

44
00:02:53.879 --> 00:02:59.400
<v Speaker 2>That steel on Luka Doncic was insane. Avitza Zubats I'm

45
00:02:59.400 --> 00:03:03.759
<v Speaker 2>not blaming him. He only got nine shots up, five

46
00:03:03.800 --> 00:03:09.719
<v Speaker 2>of nine, twelve points. How does he get nine shots up?

47
00:03:11.680 --> 00:03:16.919
<v Speaker 2>This is the game to me? The second quarter, Yeah,

48
00:03:16.960 --> 00:03:18.879
<v Speaker 2>I'm going back that far. Why do you think the

49
00:03:18.879 --> 00:03:22.759
<v Speaker 2>Clippers got down? It could have been worse. Their defense

50
00:03:23.080 --> 00:03:28.159
<v Speaker 2>was stellar, guys. I know a lot of people in

51
00:03:28.199 --> 00:03:30.039
<v Speaker 2>here will just sum it up to a loss and

52
00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:34.840
<v Speaker 2>say everything sucked, everybody sucks. No, there are good things

53
00:03:34.919 --> 00:03:38.319
<v Speaker 2>and bad things that happen. There are good plays and

54
00:03:38.400 --> 00:03:44.039
<v Speaker 2>good players and good performances. Even in losses. We're gonna

55
00:03:44.039 --> 00:03:50.960
<v Speaker 2>actually go through the details of what happened. Because their defense,

56
00:03:51.280 --> 00:03:57.000
<v Speaker 2>again was great. Some of those threes that Dalton connect made,

57
00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:02.400
<v Speaker 2>guys were right there. One hundred and eight points is

58
00:04:02.520 --> 00:04:06.319
<v Speaker 2>nothing to give up. Their defense kept them in the game,

59
00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:11.520
<v Speaker 2>It got them back into it. It made things interesting.

60
00:04:11.919 --> 00:04:16.519
<v Speaker 2>More than interesting, The Lakers almost blew it. There was

61
00:04:16.560 --> 00:04:19.439
<v Speaker 2>a twenty five to nine run at one point in

62
00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:24.519
<v Speaker 2>the second half over a seven minute, thirty second period

63
00:04:24.839 --> 00:04:28.839
<v Speaker 2>where the Clippers outscore from twenty five to nine. But

64
00:04:28.920 --> 00:04:31.199
<v Speaker 2>the seven thirty period I want to talk about. To

65
00:04:31.240 --> 00:04:34.160
<v Speaker 2>be exact, seven thirty four was at the end of

66
00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:41.360
<v Speaker 2>the second quarter. Kawhi hits a jumper. Kawhi had I

67
00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:45.399
<v Speaker 2>want to say, nine points in the second. He was cooking.

68
00:04:45.680 --> 00:04:48.639
<v Speaker 2>He was aggressive, he was assertive, he was moving well,

69
00:04:50.519 --> 00:04:54.160
<v Speaker 2>he looked great, and I was on the edge of

70
00:04:54.160 --> 00:04:57.000
<v Speaker 2>my seat, going, oh, this is the Kawhi Leonard I've

71
00:04:57.000 --> 00:05:05.279
<v Speaker 2>been waiting for. We go as the joker would say,

72
00:05:05.920 --> 00:05:08.800
<v Speaker 2>that's the koy I need to see. But he goes

73
00:05:08.839 --> 00:05:15.160
<v Speaker 2>out of the ballgame after a timeout at the six

74
00:05:15.319 --> 00:05:18.279
<v Speaker 2>twenty four mark. So he was out there during part

75
00:05:18.319 --> 00:05:22.199
<v Speaker 2>of the period where they went iice cold. Where they

76
00:05:22.199 --> 00:05:28.560
<v Speaker 2>went over the last seven minutes and thirty four seconds

77
00:05:28.560 --> 00:05:32.560
<v Speaker 2>of the second quarter, That is hard to do, honestly,

78
00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:38.879
<v Speaker 2>that is a rarity. They went over their last eleven

79
00:05:39.000 --> 00:05:43.600
<v Speaker 2>shots with three turnovers in their last fourteen possessions of

80
00:05:43.639 --> 00:05:49.759
<v Speaker 2>that second quarter, and a lot of those shots were

81
00:05:49.759 --> 00:05:57.519
<v Speaker 2>missed by Bogey. Unfortunately. As much as it helped out

82
00:05:57.600 --> 00:06:02.720
<v Speaker 2>late that he hit a couple of three pointers, he

83
00:06:03.040 --> 00:06:07.560
<v Speaker 2>was brutal during this stretch. You go through the game log,

84
00:06:08.000 --> 00:06:14.920
<v Speaker 2>you see Bogey miss Lebron turnover. Bogie miss time out.

85
00:06:15.240 --> 00:06:21.000
<v Speaker 2>Now Kawhi is out of the game. Next shot by

86
00:06:21.000 --> 00:06:24.319
<v Speaker 2>the Clippers, Bogie miss three. Next shot by the Clippers,

87
00:06:24.360 --> 00:06:28.319
<v Speaker 2>Bogey miss three. He missed four straight shots after that.

88
00:06:28.399 --> 00:06:32.560
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi jumper had him down one at forty four to

89
00:06:32.600 --> 00:06:36.600
<v Speaker 2>forty three. They would not score another bucket, and Bogie

90
00:06:36.600 --> 00:06:43.040
<v Speaker 2>took the next four shots, missed them all. He gets

91
00:06:43.079 --> 00:06:46.279
<v Speaker 2>taken out for Jordan Miller. Niko Batoum gets taken out

92
00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:50.800
<v Speaker 2>for Kobe Brown. Coach lou is looking for anything. Congrats

93
00:06:50.839 --> 00:06:55.519
<v Speaker 2>again to Jordan Miller, four year contract, eight point three million.

94
00:06:57.879 --> 00:07:00.560
<v Speaker 2>So who gets the next shot? Well, the Clippers have

95
00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:06.279
<v Speaker 2>some turnovers, Big Zoo turnover, James Harden turnover. I mean

96
00:07:06.319 --> 00:07:13.399
<v Speaker 2>they can't even get a shot up. Kobe Brown misses

97
00:07:13.399 --> 00:07:18.000
<v Speaker 2>a layup going to his right. James Harden has a turnover.

98
00:07:19.480 --> 00:07:25.680
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi comes back in around the three minute mark. Now

99
00:07:25.720 --> 00:07:30.519
<v Speaker 2>Kawi's cold. He misses a twenty footer. Jordan Miller misses

100
00:07:30.560 --> 00:07:34.120
<v Speaker 2>a three full timeout. It's fifty four to forty three.

101
00:07:34.279 --> 00:07:39.199
<v Speaker 2>Clippers haven't scored out of timeout. James Harden misses a three.

102
00:07:39.240 --> 00:07:46.079
<v Speaker 2>I think that was a good look. Kawhi missus a three.

103
00:07:46.720 --> 00:07:49.439
<v Speaker 2>I don't even this is hard to look at this

104
00:07:49.480 --> 00:07:58.279
<v Speaker 2>game log. Right now, Kawhi miss is another jumper that

105
00:07:58.319 --> 00:08:01.399
<v Speaker 2>would end the first half, and the Clippers are down thirteen.

106
00:08:02.199 --> 00:08:06.920
<v Speaker 2>They were down one at the seven thirty five mark

107
00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:12.639
<v Speaker 2>when Kawhi gets a bucket. They don't score again in

108
00:08:12.680 --> 00:08:14.720
<v Speaker 2>the last seven minutes and thirty four seconds of the

109
00:08:14.720 --> 00:08:22.600
<v Speaker 2>second quarter. It's unbelievable. That's the game. I mean, the

110
00:08:22.600 --> 00:08:26.839
<v Speaker 2>Clippers still had their chances late, and I will say

111
00:08:28.160 --> 00:08:32.200
<v Speaker 2>that possession where Lebron hit a three after four opportunities

112
00:08:34.240 --> 00:08:38.480
<v Speaker 2>late by the Lakers because Van do Do kept getting offensive rebounds.

113
00:08:40.159 --> 00:08:46.799
<v Speaker 2>That was brutal. So even though I'm damn proud of

114
00:08:46.840 --> 00:08:54.279
<v Speaker 2>the Clippers battling back and not giving in, that can't happen. Obviously,

115
00:08:57.960 --> 00:09:02.759
<v Speaker 2>their comeback comes up short. Kawhi's best game of the

116
00:09:02.799 --> 00:09:09.600
<v Speaker 2>season ends in a loss anyways, to the Lakers. I'm

117
00:09:09.600 --> 00:09:12.399
<v Speaker 2>trying to see when that Lebron James three pointer happened,

118
00:09:13.759 --> 00:09:18.399
<v Speaker 2>because it was truly incredible how many extra opportunities they got.

119
00:09:20.679 --> 00:09:27.840
<v Speaker 2>It was ninety three to eighty eight. The Clippers are

120
00:09:27.879 --> 00:09:31.120
<v Speaker 2>down five after a Vitza Zubats actually got a touch

121
00:09:31.639 --> 00:09:33.200
<v Speaker 2>and made a hook shot. I think that was a

122
00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:39.320
<v Speaker 2>spinning floater over Lebron. Lakers call a time out, Lebron

123
00:09:39.600 --> 00:09:44.519
<v Speaker 2>miss jumper, Vanda offensive rebound, Lebron miss jumper. Jemison offensive rebound,

124
00:09:44.759 --> 00:09:52.000
<v Speaker 2>Lebron miss three vand do offensive rebound. Lebron made three.

125
00:09:52.320 --> 00:09:56.960
<v Speaker 2>Five point game goes to eight. That's at the seven

126
00:09:57.000 --> 00:10:04.080
<v Speaker 2>minute mark of the fourth quarter. Clippers get battling. They

127
00:10:04.120 --> 00:10:10.320
<v Speaker 2>get down eleven. After Luca goes to the line. Kawhi

128
00:10:10.360 --> 00:10:13.960
<v Speaker 2>brings it back to nine. Hits a jumper, looks smooth

129
00:10:14.039 --> 00:10:18.039
<v Speaker 2>with it. Aviatsa Zubats gets a dunk. They're down by seven.

130
00:10:18.879 --> 00:10:25.000
<v Speaker 2>Dalton connect three. At the five thirteen mark, they're back

131
00:10:25.080 --> 00:10:28.480
<v Speaker 2>up ten. James Harden gets one to go a floater,

132
00:10:30.240 --> 00:10:35.320
<v Speaker 2>but then misses a three pointer. Was not his night,

133
00:10:35.440 --> 00:10:40.399
<v Speaker 2>was not his weekend. Chris Dunn was better than him offensively.

134
00:10:42.879 --> 00:10:47.639
<v Speaker 2>He got a floater to go and they're down eleven

135
00:10:47.960 --> 00:10:51.399
<v Speaker 2>at the three to zero six mark after a Luca

136
00:10:52.480 --> 00:10:56.720
<v Speaker 2>tough fallaway, and I thought that was it. I thought

137
00:10:56.759 --> 00:11:04.840
<v Speaker 2>that was the game. But Bog hits a three, then

138
00:11:04.919 --> 00:11:07.600
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi hits a three. It's a five point game with

139
00:11:07.720 --> 00:11:13.399
<v Speaker 2>one forty left one seven, one o two. Vincent misses

140
00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:17.519
<v Speaker 2>a three, Boge misses the three, Chris Donne missed a three.

141
00:11:18.039 --> 00:11:21.399
<v Speaker 2>After Bogey got his own miss gave it to him

142
00:11:21.960 --> 00:11:23.960
<v Speaker 2>and Done did miss a couple down the stretch. They

143
00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:30.559
<v Speaker 2>left him open, and then you have the turnover by Luca.

144
00:11:31.480 --> 00:11:35.879
<v Speaker 2>Chris Dune gets the steel is out in transition, and

145
00:11:35.919 --> 00:11:39.120
<v Speaker 2>I thought it was a goaltet initially, and Carlo and

146
00:11:39.120 --> 00:11:44.679
<v Speaker 2>I are both talking about it. I saw a goaltend.

147
00:11:46.600 --> 00:11:49.879
<v Speaker 2>Now maybe I'm wearing Clipper's rose colored glasses, but we

148
00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:52.120
<v Speaker 2>try to be honest about how we think the review

149
00:11:52.159 --> 00:11:54.720
<v Speaker 2>is gonna go so we can get ready for the

150
00:11:54.799 --> 00:11:59.240
<v Speaker 2>next play. Now, Kawhi came down with the rebound afterwards

151
00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:03.360
<v Speaker 2>off of what apparently was a good block. They reviewed it,

152
00:12:03.360 --> 00:12:08.279
<v Speaker 2>it took forever. They went to secaucas and Lebron apparently

153
00:12:08.279 --> 00:12:12.639
<v Speaker 2>got the chase down on Chris Dunn, but it was

154
00:12:12.639 --> 00:12:18.799
<v Speaker 2>Clippers ball because Kawhi ended up with it. He misses

155
00:12:18.799 --> 00:12:22.759
<v Speaker 2>a jumper, Chris Dune gets the offensive rebound, Bogie misses

156
00:12:22.799 --> 00:12:36.240
<v Speaker 2>a three. Lakers hold on to win one O eight

157
00:12:36.279 --> 00:12:41.559
<v Speaker 2>to one oh two. Lebron was having an off game,

158
00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:45.600
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi outplayed him. And Luca. It was right there for

159
00:12:45.639 --> 00:12:52.639
<v Speaker 2>a classic Clippers comeback. James Harden has another miserable shooting

160
00:12:52.679 --> 00:12:57.840
<v Speaker 2>game and the Clippers can't take advantage of the best

161
00:12:57.840 --> 00:13:00.399
<v Speaker 2>game from Kawhi Leonard. It's like one thing. If it's

162
00:13:00.399 --> 00:13:04.399
<v Speaker 2>not one thing, it's another. Kawhi looks like himself, looks great,

163
00:13:05.600 --> 00:13:08.720
<v Speaker 2>and you can't capitalize on that. It was James Harden.

164
00:13:08.799 --> 00:13:13.679
<v Speaker 2>Now what shot twenty five percent the last two games.

165
00:13:15.720 --> 00:13:19.320
<v Speaker 2>It's not one thing, it's another. Their defense was really

166
00:13:19.360 --> 00:13:25.559
<v Speaker 2>good again. Their offense seven and a half mint is scoreless.

167
00:13:28.639 --> 00:13:31.279
<v Speaker 2>We'll take one call and we'll take a break. Demetrius

168
00:13:31.320 --> 00:13:33.440
<v Speaker 2>and Manhattan beach here on Clipper stop without them Moussel

169
00:13:33.519 --> 00:13:35.000
<v Speaker 2>after they lose one O eight to one O two

170
00:13:35.080 --> 00:13:36.240
<v Speaker 2>to the Lakers.

171
00:13:36.960 --> 00:13:39.759
<v Speaker 4>Oh yeah, Adam, I didn't get a chance to speak

172
00:13:39.799 --> 00:13:41.480
<v Speaker 4>to you. I just wanted to hear your voice the

173
00:13:41.559 --> 00:13:45.120
<v Speaker 4>last game. I just got two parts to this that

174
00:13:45.159 --> 00:13:47.120
<v Speaker 4>I wanted to mention the last game I didn't get

175
00:13:47.120 --> 00:13:51.519
<v Speaker 4>an opportunity to wanted to say the last game when

176
00:13:51.559 --> 00:13:56.080
<v Speaker 4>we spoke about James Harden and it's brutal, brutal shooting.

177
00:13:56.519 --> 00:13:58.960
<v Speaker 4>But I also want to talk about when they mentioned

178
00:13:59.000 --> 00:14:01.240
<v Speaker 4>that Kawhi Leonard was just the role player. I just

179
00:14:01.279 --> 00:14:05.480
<v Speaker 4>want to recap and let everybody know that Kawhi Leonard

180
00:14:05.639 --> 00:14:10.399
<v Speaker 4>have been playing safeball, which is real safeball and kere football.

181
00:14:10.720 --> 00:14:13.799
<v Speaker 4>This is the reason why he hasn't really pressed an

182
00:14:13.879 --> 00:14:16.120
<v Speaker 4>issue because he really don't want to get injured. He

183
00:14:16.240 --> 00:14:18.879
<v Speaker 4>really want to get to the playoffs. But the urgency

184
00:14:19.000 --> 00:14:22.919
<v Speaker 4>is so high. Now you actually got the urgency from

185
00:14:23.039 --> 00:14:25.759
<v Speaker 4>him tonight, which you would then get for the rest

186
00:14:25.759 --> 00:14:28.639
<v Speaker 4>of the season. But again, he had been playing kereful

187
00:14:28.720 --> 00:14:33.080
<v Speaker 4>ball all throughout his last what twenty games or so,

188
00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:36.519
<v Speaker 4>so he's ramping it up now he knows the urgency

189
00:14:36.720 --> 00:14:39.720
<v Speaker 4>is there, so now you will get Kawhi Leonard at

190
00:14:39.720 --> 00:14:43.200
<v Speaker 4>his very best. Now moving to the game tonight, I

191
00:14:43.320 --> 00:14:47.759
<v Speaker 4>thought Zubos with his only nine shots, I me and

192
00:14:47.840 --> 00:14:49.320
<v Speaker 4>you on the same page there.

193
00:14:49.200 --> 00:14:52.000
<v Speaker 2>For everybody is everybody's on the same page with the

194
00:14:52.080 --> 00:14:55.960
<v Speaker 2>Vita Zubos, But apparently his teammates sometimes I know it's

195
00:14:56.000 --> 00:14:59.519
<v Speaker 2>not as easy as dumping it into him, Demetrius, because

196
00:14:59.559 --> 00:15:02.720
<v Speaker 2>the Lakers have been great defensively last fifteen games, best

197
00:15:02.720 --> 00:15:05.480
<v Speaker 2>defense in the league. They're doing it while playing small

198
00:15:05.759 --> 00:15:10.000
<v Speaker 2>guys are scrambling, they're collapsing on you. But nine shots

199
00:15:10.039 --> 00:15:12.240
<v Speaker 2>is not good enough in a game where you can't score.

200
00:15:13.600 --> 00:15:16.399
<v Speaker 4>And right, and let me just say this, kudos to

201
00:15:16.440 --> 00:15:20.039
<v Speaker 4>the Lakers. Yeah, they have the plan. Give JJ Reddick

202
00:15:20.080 --> 00:15:21.799
<v Speaker 4>all the credit in the world, but all they doing

203
00:15:21.919 --> 00:15:25.360
<v Speaker 4>is boxing, botching, making you shoot shots but again and

204
00:15:25.440 --> 00:15:26.240
<v Speaker 4>making threes.

205
00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:30.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, okay, it's a good point.

206
00:15:29.519 --> 00:15:33.759
<v Speaker 4>They've been real good. But listen, it comes down to

207
00:15:34.600 --> 00:15:38.480
<v Speaker 4>our tylu the st the coaching staff and everybody to

208
00:15:38.519 --> 00:15:41.799
<v Speaker 4>get his guys ready to know. We've seen this over

209
00:15:41.840 --> 00:15:44.720
<v Speaker 4>the last fifteen to twenty games with the Lakers. Okay,

210
00:15:45.360 --> 00:15:48.679
<v Speaker 4>what I did like tonight, Like I said again, James

211
00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:51.799
<v Speaker 4>Harden were acting a lot of him. We talked about this.

212
00:15:52.200 --> 00:15:55.039
<v Speaker 4>He's thirty five, thirty six years old. I mean, what

213
00:15:55.120 --> 00:15:58.240
<v Speaker 4>do you expect. I mean, the guy he has, He's

214
00:15:58.279 --> 00:16:00.919
<v Speaker 4>got thousands and thousands phil them we break.

215
00:16:01.120 --> 00:16:04.000
<v Speaker 2>I agree with you. His usage rating has been way

216
00:16:04.039 --> 00:16:07.559
<v Speaker 2>too high. He's been over text. He plays fifty minutes

217
00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:10.039
<v Speaker 2>on the second NIF of back to back. All that

218
00:16:10.159 --> 00:16:12.679
<v Speaker 2>can excuse this, but it's back to back games with

219
00:16:12.759 --> 00:16:15.720
<v Speaker 2>the day off in between, and he just he has

220
00:16:15.759 --> 00:16:18.960
<v Speaker 2>to be better than this. He can't. He can't go

221
00:16:19.200 --> 00:16:22.960
<v Speaker 2>nine to thirty six over two games. Oh yeah, he can't.

222
00:16:23.360 --> 00:16:25.480
<v Speaker 2>So not against the Lakers if you're gonna win.

223
00:16:26.759 --> 00:16:30.320
<v Speaker 4>And what I think again, Adam is with James Harden Yo.

224
00:16:30.440 --> 00:16:32.919
<v Speaker 4>He has to be better. I mean he's he has

225
00:16:32.960 --> 00:16:35.799
<v Speaker 4>to be better. But again, I would like to see

226
00:16:35.840 --> 00:16:38.200
<v Speaker 4>the urgency. I love the fact, like I agree with

227
00:16:38.279 --> 00:16:41.440
<v Speaker 4>you as a loss, you know, and since the urgency.

228
00:16:41.480 --> 00:16:44.360
<v Speaker 4>But I'll bring some likes at the end of the

229
00:16:44.399 --> 00:16:47.240
<v Speaker 4>tunnel here. I would like to see the urgency they

230
00:16:47.279 --> 00:16:49.759
<v Speaker 4>had in the fourth quarter last game, the fourth quarter

231
00:16:49.799 --> 00:16:52.679
<v Speaker 4>of this game, they've shown some urgency. They need to

232
00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:56.320
<v Speaker 4>come out with that spart at the first of the

233
00:16:56.399 --> 00:17:01.000
<v Speaker 4>game and again to go seven minutes. So whatever it

234
00:17:01.080 --> 00:17:03.720
<v Speaker 4>was in the second quarter, I would like to see

235
00:17:03.799 --> 00:17:06.119
<v Speaker 4>bot On. I think he's shooting the ball too much.

236
00:17:06.160 --> 00:17:07.880
<v Speaker 4>I think, ty lwe need to have a come to

237
00:17:08.000 --> 00:17:09.200
<v Speaker 4>Jesus moment with him.

238
00:17:09.279 --> 00:17:11.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Well, the problem is they have told him the

239
00:17:11.240 --> 00:17:15.319
<v Speaker 2>exact opposite. They have told him. Here's the problem. Norman

240
00:17:15.359 --> 00:17:18.799
<v Speaker 2>Palell goes out, I appreciate the phone call, Demetrius, and

241
00:17:18.880 --> 00:17:21.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm with you, believe me, and we'll talk again on Tuesday.

242
00:17:21.920 --> 00:17:23.559
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure but we gotta take a time out here.

243
00:17:23.599 --> 00:17:26.359
<v Speaker 2>Here's the problem. You get ready for this game, and

244
00:17:26.400 --> 00:17:28.799
<v Speaker 2>all the talk is Norman Pal's back. normOn Pal's back.

245
00:17:28.839 --> 00:17:31.920
<v Speaker 2>He's their shooter. You look at the numbers they were

246
00:17:32.519 --> 00:17:36.839
<v Speaker 2>heading into this game. I think I saw the last

247
00:17:36.880 --> 00:17:40.160
<v Speaker 2>fourteen games without Norman Palell. There was something like five

248
00:17:40.200 --> 00:17:45.880
<v Speaker 2>and nine. They were also shooting four percent lower from

249
00:17:45.920 --> 00:17:50.839
<v Speaker 2>three without Norman Powell, he provides the spacing. Without him,

250
00:17:52.039 --> 00:17:56.119
<v Speaker 2>you have to play Bogie. You don't have many options.

251
00:17:57.839 --> 00:18:01.279
<v Speaker 2>So they're telling him, you got to figure this out.

252
00:18:01.519 --> 00:18:04.759
<v Speaker 2>Bodn keep firing because we don't have anywhere else to

253
00:18:04.799 --> 00:18:08.480
<v Speaker 2>go for shooting. This is it now. Mirror doesn't take

254
00:18:08.480 --> 00:18:11.000
<v Speaker 2>a shot in twenty two minutes, which is wild to me.

255
00:18:11.799 --> 00:18:15.359
<v Speaker 2>But Bogie at least I ended up going four of

256
00:18:15.440 --> 00:18:18.240
<v Speaker 2>eleven from three. I'm gonna start off maybe one for six,

257
00:18:18.640 --> 00:18:22.480
<v Speaker 2>maybe worse. But I'm telling you without Norman Powell and

258
00:18:22.519 --> 00:18:25.480
<v Speaker 2>who now knows how long he's out with a hamstring injury,

259
00:18:25.519 --> 00:18:30.160
<v Speaker 2>now they don't have options. Bogie has to get it going.

260
00:18:31.880 --> 00:18:34.799
<v Speaker 2>They don't have anywhere else to turn. He's a shooter.

261
00:18:35.079 --> 00:18:37.759
<v Speaker 2>This is what he does. But he's having a bad

262
00:18:37.839 --> 00:18:42.559
<v Speaker 2>year like at times he's missing like it's like Steve

263
00:18:42.599 --> 00:18:45.000
<v Speaker 2>Sack's trying to throw the first It seems so mental

264
00:18:45.039 --> 00:18:49.640
<v Speaker 2>with him right now. Once again, he missed back to

265
00:18:49.680 --> 00:18:51.559
<v Speaker 2>back three pointers at one point in the second half,

266
00:18:51.640 --> 00:18:55.920
<v Speaker 2>wide open looks and he kind of like shrugs his shoulders,

267
00:18:55.960 --> 00:18:59.039
<v Speaker 2>points at his head like he can't he can't get

268
00:18:59.079 --> 00:19:03.160
<v Speaker 2>him to go. He at least made a couple after that.

269
00:19:03.680 --> 00:19:05.720
<v Speaker 2>We'll see where it goes from here. Clippers still lose

270
00:19:05.759 --> 00:19:08.200
<v Speaker 2>one away to one oh two to the Lakers. I'm

271
00:19:08.240 --> 00:19:11.200
<v Speaker 2>out of Masland and you're listening to Clippers Top. More

272
00:19:11.240 --> 00:19:12.759
<v Speaker 2>of your calls coming up next here on M five

273
00:19:12.799 --> 00:19:13.720
<v Speaker 2>to seventy LA Sports.

274
00:19:15.480 --> 00:19:17.920
<v Speaker 1>He throws it up the window, finishes in the foul

275
00:19:18.240 --> 00:19:21.359
<v Speaker 1>Los Angeles Clipper Nation. This is your home for the

276
00:19:21.480 --> 00:19:24.839
<v Speaker 1>LA Clippers. LA Clippers. Take us with you on the

277
00:19:24.880 --> 00:19:26.079
<v Speaker 1>Ihearts radio app.

278
00:19:28.559 --> 00:19:32.599
<v Speaker 2>The Clippers came into this game shooting the worst percentage

279
00:19:32.640 --> 00:19:36.519
<v Speaker 2>from three against the Lakers this season of any team

280
00:19:37.599 --> 00:19:42.759
<v Speaker 2>in three games, at twenty nine point six percent from three.

281
00:19:44.839 --> 00:19:48.240
<v Speaker 2>They shoot twelve of thirty nine this game thirty point

282
00:19:48.279 --> 00:19:52.640
<v Speaker 2>eight percent from three. That's the difference. Lakers hit six

283
00:19:52.759 --> 00:19:55.519
<v Speaker 2>more three pointers. They go forty three percent from three,

284
00:19:55.799 --> 00:20:03.000
<v Speaker 2>Clippers go thirty one percent. But all this talk Bogey's trash.

285
00:20:03.039 --> 00:20:07.279
<v Speaker 2>Get Bogie out of here. Bogey's thirty two. He's not injured.

286
00:20:08.559 --> 00:20:12.039
<v Speaker 2>He's talked about postgame. That is in his head. That's

287
00:20:12.079 --> 00:20:15.440
<v Speaker 2>what This is. A shooting funk, a shooting slump, and

288
00:20:15.519 --> 00:20:18.240
<v Speaker 2>four to eleven from three is not abysmal, by the way,

289
00:20:18.599 --> 00:20:24.640
<v Speaker 2>where he ended up at that's thirty six percent. Let's

290
00:20:24.640 --> 00:20:28.680
<v Speaker 2>hope he can build off this because guys, there's no

291
00:20:28.799 --> 00:20:31.319
<v Speaker 2>other option. There's nowhere to turn if Norm Pale is

292
00:20:31.319 --> 00:20:35.799
<v Speaker 2>still out Ryan in Santa Anna, you're on Clipper side

293
00:20:35.799 --> 00:20:37.599
<v Speaker 2>without a males one after they fall one away to one,

294
00:20:37.640 --> 00:20:38.599
<v Speaker 2>o two to the Lakers.

295
00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:43.720
<v Speaker 5>Hey, Adam, that eighties throwback of Steve Stats has been crazy.

296
00:20:44.279 --> 00:20:47.039
<v Speaker 2>But I mean it's felt like that with Bogey. The

297
00:20:47.119 --> 00:20:48.599
<v Speaker 2>funk is that deep.

298
00:20:48.799 --> 00:20:52.319
<v Speaker 5>I agree with you. I go back and forth with

299
00:20:52.319 --> 00:20:56.599
<v Speaker 5>Bogey Bogie. I love it because he doesn't he's he's

300
00:20:56.960 --> 00:20:59.400
<v Speaker 5>he's nemo. He like forgets about it. He keeps on moving,

301
00:20:59.640 --> 00:21:02.240
<v Speaker 5>And I love that because he's gonna get it right.

302
00:21:02.319 --> 00:21:06.640
<v Speaker 5>It's gonna be okay. Sure, Yeah, looked great.

303
00:21:06.759 --> 00:21:09.240
<v Speaker 2>I need to update something real quick my friend Justin

304
00:21:09.279 --> 00:21:12.240
<v Speaker 2>Russo just put this out that Norm Powell left the

305
00:21:12.279 --> 00:21:16.680
<v Speaker 2>arena after tonight's game with a noticeable limp. He only

306
00:21:16.680 --> 00:21:20.480
<v Speaker 2>played those nine minutes. He left with right hamstring soreness.

307
00:21:20.799 --> 00:21:21.400
<v Speaker 2>Continue on.

308
00:21:23.440 --> 00:21:26.240
<v Speaker 5>The problems just got a little bit bigger. If Norm's

309
00:21:26.240 --> 00:21:26.799
<v Speaker 5>going to be out for.

310
00:21:26.960 --> 00:21:30.400
<v Speaker 2>Well, he's gonna be that. That's why they kept Bogie

311
00:21:30.400 --> 00:21:33.079
<v Speaker 2>out there. The reason Bogie played the entire third quarter

312
00:21:33.359 --> 00:21:36.160
<v Speaker 2>and they just kept imploring him shoot it. You have

313
00:21:36.240 --> 00:21:38.079
<v Speaker 2>to shoot it. No, they don't have they.

314
00:21:37.960 --> 00:21:42.480
<v Speaker 5>Don't have options. Yeah, I get it, like he needs

315
00:21:42.519 --> 00:21:44.319
<v Speaker 5>to he needs to be in there. I mean, you're

316
00:21:44.359 --> 00:21:45.839
<v Speaker 5>not going to do it. And Bogey that had to

317
00:21:46.200 --> 00:21:48.039
<v Speaker 5>do it, and he's capable of doing it. It's just

318
00:21:48.079 --> 00:21:53.359
<v Speaker 5>mental Kawi. Look vintage. I cooked him on the other night,

319
00:21:53.480 --> 00:21:56.400
<v Speaker 5>but he looked great. I just wish that he had

320
00:21:56.440 --> 00:21:58.160
<v Speaker 5>a little he had a bat he had a robin

321
00:21:58.200 --> 00:22:01.079
<v Speaker 5>to his batman because done looked great. He did the

322
00:22:01.119 --> 00:22:03.359
<v Speaker 5>defensive part. But we needed somebody else.

323
00:22:03.680 --> 00:22:05.720
<v Speaker 2>You know what The other problem was in this game, Ryan,

324
00:22:06.480 --> 00:22:09.079
<v Speaker 2>They were also missing Ben Simmons. I know we didn't

325
00:22:09.079 --> 00:22:12.920
<v Speaker 2>play great Friday, but I wanted to see him in

326
00:22:12.960 --> 00:22:15.799
<v Speaker 2>this game because Lakers go small a lot. This is

327
00:22:15.799 --> 00:22:19.000
<v Speaker 2>a good opportunity for him. He's day to day with

328
00:22:19.039 --> 00:22:22.319
<v Speaker 2>a knee injury, and we did find out till you know,

329
00:22:22.519 --> 00:22:24.920
<v Speaker 2>earlier today that he was going to be out.

330
00:22:25.960 --> 00:22:28.799
<v Speaker 5>We keep going Ben Simon to somebody who's Ben Simon

331
00:22:28.799 --> 00:22:31.519
<v Speaker 5>to someone who's capable of Guardian Luca as well. So

332
00:22:31.599 --> 00:22:34.200
<v Speaker 5>if you have Luca, I'm sorry. If you have Ben

333
00:22:34.240 --> 00:22:36.440
<v Speaker 5>and you have Kawhi out there, they're capable of guarding

334
00:22:38.119 --> 00:22:41.559
<v Speaker 5>Lebron and Luca. So it gives it a good, good

335
00:22:41.599 --> 00:22:46.160
<v Speaker 5>defensive lineup. But yeah, I think our problems are bigger

336
00:22:46.160 --> 00:22:48.440
<v Speaker 5>than this just this game, but.

337
00:22:49.359 --> 00:22:53.599
<v Speaker 2>Because because the injuries. I mean, I'd feel a lot

338
00:22:53.640 --> 00:22:55.440
<v Speaker 2>better if they were healthy. But now guys are going

339
00:22:55.480 --> 00:22:58.759
<v Speaker 2>to be dropping life flies with But with norm Palell

340
00:22:58.839 --> 00:23:01.000
<v Speaker 2>being out, they need more from both. With Ben Simmons

341
00:23:01.079 --> 00:23:04.519
<v Speaker 2>being out, who they just got, Like what I said

342
00:23:04.519 --> 00:23:09.920
<v Speaker 2>on X was Kawhi. It's time carry them. He did

343
00:23:09.960 --> 00:23:14.680
<v Speaker 2>his part. He did his part, but James Harden had

344
00:23:14.680 --> 00:23:16.480
<v Speaker 2>to be better than this. And I appreciate the phone

345
00:23:16.519 --> 00:23:20.599
<v Speaker 2>call Ryan, and if he was, the Clippers likely win

346
00:23:20.640 --> 00:23:23.400
<v Speaker 2>this game. I'm not putting it on one guy, but

347
00:23:25.400 --> 00:23:29.960
<v Speaker 2>over two games, he went nine of thirty six shot

348
00:23:30.000 --> 00:23:34.279
<v Speaker 2>twenty five percent and had a really good look late.

349
00:23:35.359 --> 00:23:42.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm glad he kept firing. But look, the biggest takeaway

350
00:23:42.480 --> 00:23:43.759
<v Speaker 2>from this game is not the loss.

351
00:23:43.799 --> 00:23:43.960
<v Speaker 1>To me.

352
00:23:44.039 --> 00:23:47.599
<v Speaker 2>It's not because the big picture is is Kawhi going

353
00:23:47.680 --> 00:23:49.079
<v Speaker 2>to ever get back to being Kawhi?

354
00:23:49.160 --> 00:23:49.319
<v Speaker 5>Well?

355
00:23:49.400 --> 00:23:53.599
<v Speaker 2>Tonight he was in forty minutes thirty three on twenty

356
00:23:53.640 --> 00:23:57.279
<v Speaker 2>three shots. Rick in Malibu before we take a break here, Rick,

357
00:23:57.319 --> 00:23:59.000
<v Speaker 2>what's up here on Clipper stock with out of Mazland.

358
00:24:00.720 --> 00:24:05.920
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, hey, Adam obviously disappointed tonight, but I've held off

359
00:24:06.279 --> 00:24:08.720
<v Speaker 6>calling a bit of I grew up as a Lakers fan.

360
00:24:08.839 --> 00:24:12.279
<v Speaker 2>During the cut, this guy off right now, Okay, I'm

361
00:24:12.279 --> 00:24:12.680
<v Speaker 2>just kidding.

362
00:24:12.680 --> 00:24:16.440
<v Speaker 6>I'm just kidding. And then I switched to the Clippers.

363
00:24:16.480 --> 00:24:18.480
<v Speaker 2>Oh wow, Saul turned into Paul.

364
00:24:18.599 --> 00:24:22.880
<v Speaker 6>I like it decades ago. But what I watched with

365
00:24:22.920 --> 00:24:26.839
<v Speaker 6>the Clippers is it's about time that we all listen

366
00:24:26.880 --> 00:24:30.359
<v Speaker 6>to college. We're not good enough. We just don't have

367
00:24:30.400 --> 00:24:33.359
<v Speaker 6>the horses. We don't make the trades. We don't trade.

368
00:24:33.400 --> 00:24:33.920
<v Speaker 2>What trade?

369
00:24:34.000 --> 00:24:35.519
<v Speaker 6>Championship team? We trade?

370
00:24:35.559 --> 00:24:38.440
<v Speaker 2>What trade? Give me the trade, Give me the actual trade.

371
00:24:38.440 --> 00:24:39.759
<v Speaker 2>Don't talk about hypotheticals.

372
00:24:39.759 --> 00:24:41.920
<v Speaker 6>What do you got we gave away Norman Pown. We

373
00:24:41.920 --> 00:24:44.599
<v Speaker 6>gave a Norman Powell and pot and and Porter Junior

374
00:24:44.720 --> 00:24:46.960
<v Speaker 6>got nothing for them, I mean.

375
00:24:47.279 --> 00:24:49.519
<v Speaker 2>Give away normal. What are you talking about?

376
00:24:51.079 --> 00:24:53.720
<v Speaker 6>What we get for Norman Powell? I'm not for I'm

377
00:24:53.720 --> 00:24:56.200
<v Speaker 6>talking about Terrence Man. Excuse me, Terrence Man, excuse me.

378
00:24:56.240 --> 00:24:58.599
<v Speaker 2>They got Bogie, three second round picks and a guy

379
00:24:58.640 --> 00:25:02.119
<v Speaker 2>who's on a contract one less year than team Man,

380
00:25:02.119 --> 00:25:04.279
<v Speaker 2>so they'll have more cap space in twenty twenty six.

381
00:25:05.680 --> 00:25:07.440
<v Speaker 6>Let me reverse, right, do you think do you think

382
00:25:07.480 --> 00:25:09.240
<v Speaker 6>that this team is built for a championship?

383
00:25:10.200 --> 00:25:13.039
<v Speaker 2>I think with the Kolia saw tonight, they can compete

384
00:25:13.359 --> 00:25:16.000
<v Speaker 2>if they get healthy against most teams in the Western Conference.

385
00:25:17.400 --> 00:25:20.960
<v Speaker 6>We do you think they can compete? That's exactly my point.

386
00:25:21.119 --> 00:25:23.519
<v Speaker 2>Oh I'm sorry, Rick, Do you think there's a guaranteed

387
00:25:23.559 --> 00:25:24.839
<v Speaker 2>team with a championship?

388
00:25:25.039 --> 00:25:26.839
<v Speaker 6>No, no, no, no, no, no no no, that's not

389
00:25:26.839 --> 00:25:29.000
<v Speaker 6>what I'm saying. I'll be built for a championship. I

390
00:25:29.039 --> 00:25:30.759
<v Speaker 6>mean I watched the Lakers. Lakers had a good team

391
00:25:30.799 --> 00:25:33.799
<v Speaker 6>all year long. They couldn't win, but they constantly are

392
00:25:33.799 --> 00:25:34.400
<v Speaker 6>making trades.

393
00:25:34.599 --> 00:25:39.400
<v Speaker 2>They got lucky, Rick, They got Luca headed to a

394
00:25:39.079 --> 00:25:43.200
<v Speaker 2>little silver platter to revive the franchise is the biggest

395
00:25:43.240 --> 00:25:48.039
<v Speaker 2>trade history. That's not normal. And you're gonna criticize the Clippers.

396
00:25:48.119 --> 00:25:49.960
<v Speaker 2>Why didn't they get a Luka dancs.

397
00:25:51.039 --> 00:25:54.720
<v Speaker 6>Craziest, That's that's not what I'm saying. Of course it

398
00:25:54.759 --> 00:25:56.759
<v Speaker 6>was a crazy trade. It was crazy.

399
00:25:56.839 --> 00:26:00.519
<v Speaker 2>So you're in you're gonna give the Lakers credit because

400
00:26:00.799 --> 00:26:06.000
<v Speaker 2>Nico Harrison handed them, because Nico Harrison handed them. No,

401
00:26:06.079 --> 00:26:08.920
<v Speaker 2>they did get something. They got Chris Dunn, they got

402
00:26:09.000 --> 00:26:13.640
<v Speaker 2>DJ they got Nico Batoum back, and they got under

403
00:26:13.680 --> 00:26:16.720
<v Speaker 2>the the first apron. That's not nothing.

404
00:26:16.839 --> 00:26:20.599
<v Speaker 6>Clippers don't. The Clippers aren't trading to win a championship.

405
00:26:20.839 --> 00:26:22.519
<v Speaker 6>They just aren't Rick wrecked.

406
00:26:22.880 --> 00:26:24.680
<v Speaker 2>You know what they're not doing. You know what they're

407
00:26:24.720 --> 00:26:29.039
<v Speaker 2>not doing, Rick, Rick, how about this. I'll let you talk.

408
00:26:29.200 --> 00:26:32.039
<v Speaker 2>I'll let you talk and then and then and I

409
00:26:32.039 --> 00:26:35.200
<v Speaker 2>can respond. So, Rick, you got twenty seconds, go ahead,

410
00:26:35.519 --> 00:26:37.480
<v Speaker 2>So what you want to say?

411
00:26:37.799 --> 00:26:38.880
<v Speaker 6>I thought you were going.

412
00:26:39.240 --> 00:26:42.599
<v Speaker 2>Okay, i'll go, I'll go, I'll go, I'll go. What

413
00:26:42.640 --> 00:26:48.759
<v Speaker 2>they're not doing is quadrupling down on an era that

414
00:26:48.799 --> 00:26:54.039
<v Speaker 2>has been disappointing because of injuries and things outside their control,

415
00:26:54.559 --> 00:26:57.319
<v Speaker 2>with Kawhi Leonard not being able to stay healthy. Because

416
00:26:57.359 --> 00:26:59.119
<v Speaker 2>if they went out there and made a big move

417
00:26:59.200 --> 00:27:02.039
<v Speaker 2>right now, let's say if they had brought in Jimmy

418
00:27:02.039 --> 00:27:04.799
<v Speaker 2>Butler or Zach Lavine, the guys that were available, the

419
00:27:04.799 --> 00:27:07.839
<v Speaker 2>big names. Let's say they did that right and you'd

420
00:27:07.839 --> 00:27:10.640
<v Speaker 2>be calling and be like, Okay, they're making moves, they're trying.

421
00:27:11.480 --> 00:27:15.720
<v Speaker 2>But then let's say Kawhi's right knee swells up. Will

422
00:27:15.759 --> 00:27:18.000
<v Speaker 2>did that big move do anything for him other than

423
00:27:18.039 --> 00:27:21.680
<v Speaker 2>set them back even further. No, So you don't know

424
00:27:21.839 --> 00:27:24.960
<v Speaker 2>if Kawhi can stay healthy from game to game, from

425
00:27:25.079 --> 00:27:29.039
<v Speaker 2>day to day. So why would you go all in,

426
00:27:30.079 --> 00:27:32.920
<v Speaker 2>trade more future assets, trade the last first round pick

427
00:27:33.000 --> 00:27:38.880
<v Speaker 2>you have for something that the last four years we've

428
00:27:38.920 --> 00:27:41.680
<v Speaker 2>seen over and over again. Unfortunately Kawhi can't stay healthy.

429
00:27:42.240 --> 00:27:46.039
<v Speaker 2>You're gonna bet, like on bringing in guys that have big,

430
00:27:46.279 --> 00:27:49.920
<v Speaker 2>bloated contracts, and then it takes away from you bringing

431
00:27:49.960 --> 00:27:52.279
<v Speaker 2>in free agents in twenty twenty six when they're gonna

432
00:27:52.319 --> 00:27:55.799
<v Speaker 2>have seventy million dollars to play with. Why would you

433
00:27:55.799 --> 00:27:56.039
<v Speaker 2>do that?

434
00:27:56.440 --> 00:28:00.640
<v Speaker 6>I disagree with nothing you just said, Well.

435
00:28:00.480 --> 00:28:05.680
<v Speaker 2>Then you disagree with yourself, because that's the that's the

436
00:28:05.720 --> 00:28:08.519
<v Speaker 2>game from this front office, that's.

437
00:28:10.960 --> 00:28:15.640
<v Speaker 6>It I appreciate that. So when we started the season,

438
00:28:15.680 --> 00:28:17.440
<v Speaker 6>I like the fact that we're building a team that's

439
00:28:17.480 --> 00:28:19.440
<v Speaker 6>different the way the Lakers than the Lakers build their team.

440
00:28:19.440 --> 00:28:22.039
<v Speaker 6>We're building a great defensive team and it's fun to watch,

441
00:28:22.359 --> 00:28:25.079
<v Speaker 6>and our guys can defend, but every once in a while,

442
00:28:25.079 --> 00:28:27.359
<v Speaker 6>they got to be able to hit a shot. Now,

443
00:28:27.480 --> 00:28:31.000
<v Speaker 6>you had a great defender in Terrence Mann. I don't

444
00:28:31.000 --> 00:28:32.880
<v Speaker 6>know what his problem was this year. He looked like

445
00:28:32.920 --> 00:28:35.000
<v Speaker 6>he was just distracted. I don't know what was going

446
00:28:35.000 --> 00:28:36.880
<v Speaker 6>on in his personal life. Maybe it was something, maybe

447
00:28:36.880 --> 00:28:39.519
<v Speaker 6>it wasn't, but he was He's a great defender, lots

448
00:28:39.559 --> 00:28:43.119
<v Speaker 6>of energy, and he can shoot and score. Chris Dunn

449
00:28:43.160 --> 00:28:46.039
<v Speaker 6>is a tremendous pick up a bogey. I like his offense.

450
00:28:46.559 --> 00:28:50.480
<v Speaker 6>We're not but we're not building to win a championship

451
00:28:50.559 --> 00:28:52.400
<v Speaker 6>right build around there, and I understand that we have

452
00:28:52.480 --> 00:28:54.960
<v Speaker 6>players who we have to put under museum glass. I

453
00:28:55.000 --> 00:28:59.000
<v Speaker 6>get that Norman Palace fragile, Kawaiia's fragile, Paul George's fragile.

454
00:28:59.039 --> 00:29:00.400
<v Speaker 6>We tend to get all the guys that you got

455
00:29:00.440 --> 00:29:02.799
<v Speaker 6>to put under under the museum glass and protect them.

456
00:29:02.880 --> 00:29:05.079
<v Speaker 6>And that's a problem. And I don't know how you

457
00:29:05.000 --> 00:29:07.759
<v Speaker 6>you how you deal around that. You know, friends of

458
00:29:07.799 --> 00:29:09.319
<v Speaker 6>mine and we've been talking for years, and I know

459
00:29:09.359 --> 00:29:11.960
<v Speaker 6>you've been disagreeing with it years ago when Kawhi was

460
00:29:11.960 --> 00:29:15.640
<v Speaker 6>still still valuable. You can't How does tylu coach a

461
00:29:15.720 --> 00:29:18.279
<v Speaker 6>team when he never knows who is starting five? Is

462
00:29:18.599 --> 00:29:19.720
<v Speaker 6>it's almost impossible.

463
00:29:22.920 --> 00:29:25.319
<v Speaker 2>What was your solution because you just said, I don't

464
00:29:25.319 --> 00:29:29.440
<v Speaker 2>know what we do. Yeah, but you're criticizing now.

465
00:29:29.759 --> 00:29:34.400
<v Speaker 6>But okay, I'll tell you what I know. I'll tell

466
00:29:34.400 --> 00:29:35.960
<v Speaker 6>you what I know. What I know is I watched

467
00:29:35.960 --> 00:29:40.160
<v Speaker 6>the Lakers pick up Hashimura for nothing. I watched him

468
00:29:40.200 --> 00:29:42.480
<v Speaker 6>then pick up gave Vincent. I watched him pick up

469
00:29:42.680 --> 00:29:44.200
<v Speaker 6>a lot of ballplayers Lakers.

470
00:29:46.880 --> 00:29:46.960
<v Speaker 5>Like.

471
00:29:47.880 --> 00:29:50.559
<v Speaker 6>I understand, I understand anyone. And they wanted to get

472
00:29:50.640 --> 00:29:57.599
<v Speaker 6>rid of the guy who's shooting. I understand that. But

473
00:29:57.640 --> 00:30:04.160
<v Speaker 6>they do have eight or nine shooters.

474
00:30:01.160 --> 00:30:05.359
<v Speaker 2>Gone until they just had Luka Doncic handed to them

475
00:30:05.359 --> 00:30:08.400
<v Speaker 2>on a silver platter ring. So comparing them to the Lakers,

476
00:30:08.400 --> 00:30:11.200
<v Speaker 2>I think is a little bit unfair because they.

477
00:30:13.880 --> 00:30:16.200
<v Speaker 6>The reason why they do that over the Laker organization

478
00:30:16.279 --> 00:30:18.680
<v Speaker 6>is because they they every year try to build for

479
00:30:18.720 --> 00:30:21.519
<v Speaker 6>a championship team. So They're satisfied with nothing. You have

480
00:30:21.559 --> 00:30:24.240
<v Speaker 6>their prima donnas. You have. They complain they're obno, most

481
00:30:24.279 --> 00:30:26.799
<v Speaker 6>obnoxious fans in the NBA. They got the biggest cry

482
00:30:26.839 --> 00:30:28.960
<v Speaker 6>babies in the NBA on that team. You know, you

483
00:30:29.039 --> 00:30:31.400
<v Speaker 6>stand anywhere near Luca or Lebron to get called for

484
00:30:31.440 --> 00:30:33.599
<v Speaker 6>a foul. I get that. But the point is that

485
00:30:33.759 --> 00:30:36.519
<v Speaker 6>organization builds to win a championship, which is why they're

486
00:30:36.519 --> 00:30:39.319
<v Speaker 6>satisfied with nothing less. We're happy when we hit sit.

487
00:30:40.079 --> 00:30:43.480
<v Speaker 2>All I've heard, all I've heard the last two seasons

488
00:30:43.759 --> 00:30:47.359
<v Speaker 2>is that the Lakers are being hoarders. They're not using

489
00:30:47.440 --> 00:30:51.000
<v Speaker 2>their picks, they're not making big moves. That is all

490
00:30:51.079 --> 00:30:53.799
<v Speaker 2>I have heard from Lakers fans who will confirm this.

491
00:30:54.319 --> 00:30:58.119
<v Speaker 2>And then they just left into getting Luka Doncic out

492
00:30:58.160 --> 00:30:58.559
<v Speaker 2>of nowhere.

493
00:30:58.759 --> 00:31:00.559
<v Speaker 6>They're a pretty good team without Luca. They're pretty good

494
00:31:00.559 --> 00:31:02.680
<v Speaker 6>team without Luca before Luca. They want to how many

495
00:31:02.680 --> 00:31:03.880
<v Speaker 6>games that they went after they got rid of a

496
00:31:03.920 --> 00:31:06.039
<v Speaker 6>d before Luca came in four games they.

497
00:31:05.880 --> 00:31:07.759
<v Speaker 2>Got rid of ads for Luca.

498
00:31:08.200 --> 00:31:10.839
<v Speaker 6>So I understand that, and and and there was a

499
00:31:11.000 --> 00:31:13.359
<v Speaker 6>there was a lad A. He didn't play the last

500
00:31:13.359 --> 00:31:15.119
<v Speaker 6>game when he was at the Lakers and the first

501
00:31:15.240 --> 00:31:17.720
<v Speaker 6>three before Luca came in. The Lakers won four straight

502
00:31:17.839 --> 00:31:19.400
<v Speaker 6>before Luca got on.

503
00:31:19.359 --> 00:31:21.880
<v Speaker 2>The court, and they were going nowhere fast until they

504
00:31:21.920 --> 00:31:23.920
<v Speaker 2>ended up getting a top five player in the league

505
00:31:23.920 --> 00:31:26.599
<v Speaker 2>handed to them on a silver platter in the craziest

506
00:31:26.640 --> 00:31:29.960
<v Speaker 2>trade that has happening four straight. Oh, I guess their

507
00:31:30.000 --> 00:31:31.279
<v Speaker 2>championship contrade.

508
00:31:31.720 --> 00:31:33.920
<v Speaker 6>Craziest trade ever. Lakers always neemed to get the trade.

509
00:31:33.960 --> 00:31:36.240
<v Speaker 6>It's part of the NBA. It's it's why it's a corrupting.

510
00:31:36.279 --> 00:31:38.880
<v Speaker 2>I appreciate you. I gotta take a time out. You

511
00:31:38.960 --> 00:31:40.079
<v Speaker 2>haven't exactly offered a.

512
00:31:43.640 --> 00:31:44.240
<v Speaker 5>Real solutions.

513
00:31:44.279 --> 00:31:46.920
<v Speaker 2>I'm not an owner, but I mean I need a

514
00:31:46.920 --> 00:31:49.200
<v Speaker 2>realistic solution. If you're going to criticize someone, can you

515
00:31:49.279 --> 00:31:50.759
<v Speaker 2>offer a realistic solution.

516
00:31:51.759 --> 00:31:54.680
<v Speaker 6>No, I'm not chrisy All saying we're.

517
00:31:54.319 --> 00:31:56.799
<v Speaker 2>Not doing anything. I tell you what the game plan

518
00:31:57.000 --> 00:31:59.200
<v Speaker 2>is from the Clippers and why they weren't making these

519
00:31:59.279 --> 00:32:01.519
<v Speaker 2>big swing moves for guys when you don't know if

520
00:32:01.559 --> 00:32:02.599
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi can stay healthy.

521
00:32:03.319 --> 00:32:06.799
<v Speaker 6>I think I offered that out championship All right, Rick.

522
00:32:06.680 --> 00:32:09.160
<v Speaker 2>I appreciate the phone call. We'll take a quick time out.

523
00:32:09.200 --> 00:32:12.039
<v Speaker 2>We'll come back. Yeah, we'll probably do some Clippers stock

524
00:32:12.039 --> 00:32:14.720
<v Speaker 2>after dark amount a Mouslin. Clippers lose to the Lakers,

525
00:32:14.799 --> 00:32:19.640
<v Speaker 2>people freak it out. I'm sorry they didn't mortgage their

526
00:32:20.079 --> 00:32:24.039
<v Speaker 2>entire future for guys that wouldn't be able to help

527
00:32:24.079 --> 00:32:25.599
<v Speaker 2>them within a championship. I mean, it would have been

528
00:32:25.599 --> 00:32:29.160
<v Speaker 2>cool if the Clippers and Nico Harrison called them about

529
00:32:29.240 --> 00:32:33.559
<v Speaker 2>Luka Doncic, but that didn't happen. This is Sela Sports.

530

533

<v Speaker 1>Take us with you on the Ihearts radioip.

534
00:32:46.880 --> 00:32:49.319
<v Speaker 2>Clippers lose one O eight to one O two to

535
00:32:49.519 --> 00:32:54.640
<v Speaker 2>the Lakers. Kawhi is thirty three and looks great. Some

536
00:32:54.799 --> 00:32:57.599
<v Speaker 2>people just want to call in yell at the Clippers,

537
00:32:57.640 --> 00:32:59.680
<v Speaker 2>oh we're not competing for a championship, but offer no

538
00:33:00.599 --> 00:33:03.880
<v Speaker 2>on how that could happen. It's unfortunate. I know the

539
00:33:03.960 --> 00:33:08.880
<v Speaker 2>Lakers got Luca out of nowhere, they got Lucky. Was

540
00:33:08.960 --> 00:33:10.680
<v Speaker 2>that good process for them getting Luca?

541
00:33:10.920 --> 00:33:10.960
<v Speaker 4>What?

542
00:33:11.119 --> 00:33:14.799
<v Speaker 2>Because Rob Polenka had a relationship with Nico Harrison, he thought,

543
00:33:14.839 --> 00:33:16.920
<v Speaker 2>you know what, that's not that crazy of an idea.

544
00:33:17.000 --> 00:33:18.920
<v Speaker 2>Maybe I will tread you guys, Luca, I wish he

545
00:33:19.000 --> 00:33:23.119
<v Speaker 2>did that to the Clippers who didn't happen. But you

546
00:33:23.240 --> 00:33:26.119
<v Speaker 2>have to have actual solutions here if you're just going

547
00:33:26.160 --> 00:33:28.799
<v Speaker 2>to criticize without any solutions, like and I gave. I

548
00:33:28.839 --> 00:33:31.279
<v Speaker 2>gave Rick all the time in the world's let him

549
00:33:31.319 --> 00:33:34.039
<v Speaker 2>talk like I literally had to say, Okay, I'll talk

550
00:33:34.119 --> 00:33:37.200
<v Speaker 2>that you taught. We go back and forth, he keeps talking.

551
00:33:38.640 --> 00:33:41.359
<v Speaker 2>It's difficult to have a conversation with a guy who

552
00:33:41.440 --> 00:33:43.079
<v Speaker 2>keeps saying the same thing. I asked him the same

553
00:33:43.160 --> 00:33:45.079
<v Speaker 2>question over and over again. What's your solution? He doesn't

554
00:33:45.119 --> 00:33:47.119
<v Speaker 2>have any. I don't know what you want. I'll tell

555
00:33:47.119 --> 00:33:50.240
<v Speaker 2>you a quick time out. I know it's frustrating. Two

556
00:33:50.279 --> 00:33:52.720
<v Speaker 2>games lost to the Lakers, two games that were winnable

557
00:33:52.799 --> 00:33:56.359
<v Speaker 2>over the weekend. Clippers lose by six this time. Good

558
00:33:56.400 --> 00:33:59.880
<v Speaker 2>news is Kawhi Leonard looked much better. I mana ma's

<v Speaker 2>one O two. We'll do Clippers Talk after dark at

566
00:34:20.440 --> 00:34:23.920
<v Speaker 2>Clippers Talk on the YouTube side for you guys. There's

567
00:34:23.960 --> 00:34:28.519
<v Speaker 2>still much to unpack here. Some are saying Rick was

568
00:34:28.519 --> 00:34:31.119
<v Speaker 2>a plant. He was actually a Lakers fan trying to

569
00:34:31.159 --> 00:34:32.760
<v Speaker 2>point how awesome their franchise is.

570
00:34:32.920 --> 00:34:34.400
<v Speaker 6>Its great.

571
00:34:34.519 --> 00:34:39.320
<v Speaker 2>They got Luca, they lucked out. I grass them. I'm happy.

572
00:34:39.400 --> 00:34:42.000
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi Leonard had thirty three in his forty minutes on

573
00:34:42.079 --> 00:34:46.119
<v Speaker 2>twenty three shots. He outplayed Luca and Lebron. Unfortunately, Clippers

574
00:34:46.159 --> 00:34:50.159
<v Speaker 2>didn't get enough from some of the other guys. We'll

575
00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:53.039
<v Speaker 2>see how they bounce back against Phoenix on Tuesday in Phoenix,

576
