<v Speaker 2>I'm at a mod eight six six ninety seven two

18
00:00:40.759 --> 00:00:43.520
<v Speaker 2>five seventy eight six six ninety eight seven two five

19
00:00:43.679 --> 00:00:47.960
<v Speaker 2>seventy is the phone number coming up? Looking for postgame audio.

20
00:00:48.159 --> 00:00:51.640
<v Speaker 2>We'll get to your phone calls. Clippers have won two

21
00:00:51.679 --> 00:00:55.159
<v Speaker 2>in a row now, okay, starting to feel a little

22
00:00:55.159 --> 00:00:58.320
<v Speaker 2>bit better about this ball club. Huh they hold a

23
00:00:58.359 --> 00:01:01.399
<v Speaker 2>team to ninety five points. I know who the Knicks

24
00:01:01.399 --> 00:01:04.400
<v Speaker 2>were without Jalen Brunson. Second night of it, back to back,

25
00:01:04.480 --> 00:01:08.280
<v Speaker 2>got hurt laid against the Lakers last night. But the

26
00:01:08.280 --> 00:01:10.879
<v Speaker 2>Clippers handled their business, holding a team to thirty eight

27
00:01:10.920 --> 00:01:14.040
<v Speaker 2>and a half percent shooting from the field and nine

28
00:01:14.079 --> 00:01:15.239
<v Speaker 2>to thirty four from three.

29
00:01:16.280 --> 00:01:16.840
<v Speaker 4>Not easy.

30
00:01:17.159 --> 00:01:19.480
<v Speaker 2>The Knicks only turned it over thirteen times per game.

31
00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:23.079
<v Speaker 2>They turned it over fifteen times against the Clippers, and

32
00:01:23.120 --> 00:01:26.920
<v Speaker 2>there were some key defensive moments in this one in

33
00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:29.480
<v Speaker 2>the fourth quarter when the Clippers had to have it.

34
00:01:29.480 --> 00:01:32.599
<v Speaker 2>It was a one point game heading into the fourth.

35
00:01:33.040 --> 00:01:36.760
<v Speaker 2>As the Clippers well, they went zero of nine from

36
00:01:36.799 --> 00:01:39.959
<v Speaker 2>the field the last five minutes of the third. It

37
00:01:40.040 --> 00:01:44.920
<v Speaker 2>was seventy nine seventy eight Clippers to start the fourth quarter.

38
00:01:44.959 --> 00:01:50.079
<v Speaker 2>It was DJ Bogie, Emir Zuo Kawhi Bogee hits a

39
00:01:50.120 --> 00:01:53.280
<v Speaker 2>turnaround to get things going in the fourth quarter after

40
00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:57.319
<v Speaker 2>not having a point entering it. He would come up huge,

41
00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:02.040
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi short on a fade away, Shammitt would miss, Bogey

42
00:02:02.079 --> 00:02:04.239
<v Speaker 2>would get a board. He went for a career high

43
00:02:04.400 --> 00:02:08.000
<v Speaker 2>twelve rebounds. Then after Kawhi was short, he was long

44
00:02:08.039 --> 00:02:12.599
<v Speaker 2>on a jumper, Campaign misses a three, Zoo passed to

45
00:02:12.680 --> 00:02:16.000
<v Speaker 2>a cutting DJ for a dunk, and there's your second

46
00:02:16.039 --> 00:02:21.199
<v Speaker 2>field goal of the fourth quarter, and coach Tibbs ESUS

47
00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:25.680
<v Speaker 2>team down five, calls a timeout Bridges misses out of

48
00:02:25.719 --> 00:02:28.159
<v Speaker 2>the timeout, Zuo miss is a floater off for great

49
00:02:28.199 --> 00:02:32.199
<v Speaker 2>feed from Kawhi, payning turnover, Kawhi short on a floater,

50
00:02:34.039 --> 00:02:37.520
<v Speaker 2>couldn't get anything to go. Look gas late really did.

51
00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:40.360
<v Speaker 2>But there were some things I was very much encouraged by.

52
00:02:41.439 --> 00:02:44.759
<v Speaker 2>Shammitt had a miss and Kawhi crashed the glass. Zoo

53
00:02:44.919 --> 00:02:47.520
<v Speaker 2>came up with it. The little things there Kawhi was

54
00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:49.439
<v Speaker 2>doing to impact the game of the fourth quarter, even

55
00:02:49.439 --> 00:02:53.400
<v Speaker 2>though shots weren't falling. Bogey to Zoo now eighty five

56
00:02:53.520 --> 00:02:56.879
<v Speaker 2>seventy eight, shamit would beat Zoo to the basket on

57
00:02:56.960 --> 00:03:02.439
<v Speaker 2>a left Ali layup, Kawhi to DJ for a big three.

58
00:03:02.479 --> 00:03:06.479
<v Speaker 2>Welcome back Derek Jones Jr. Eight point Clippers lead. They

59
00:03:06.479 --> 00:03:10.680
<v Speaker 2>got that cushion there. Bridges hits a jumper, Bogie another

60
00:03:10.759 --> 00:03:14.039
<v Speaker 2>fade away. He's not just a three point sniper, He's

61
00:03:14.039 --> 00:03:17.680
<v Speaker 2>a three level scorer. Pressures at Chua had an and

62
00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:22.520
<v Speaker 2>one as Bogie fouled him. Did they review that one?

63
00:03:22.680 --> 00:03:27.520
<v Speaker 2>I believe they did. Maybe they didn't. A mirror misses

64
00:03:27.879 --> 00:03:30.960
<v Speaker 2>a wide open three and maybe one of my favorite

65
00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:35.560
<v Speaker 2>players of the game, Kawhi as they were pushing it

66
00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:39.719
<v Speaker 2>in transition with josh Hart. Stayed with him the entire

67
00:03:39.879 --> 00:03:44.639
<v Speaker 2>time from the back court to the front court, running

68
00:03:44.719 --> 00:03:48.439
<v Speaker 2>full speed, and then got the strip off of josh

69
00:03:48.479 --> 00:03:51.719
<v Speaker 2>Hart and then a mirror in the same spot, wide

70
00:03:51.759 --> 00:03:56.360
<v Speaker 2>open three nails it. The bench wasn't great, but they

71
00:03:56.400 --> 00:04:02.280
<v Speaker 2>were gritty late. They had some timely bucket. It's then

72
00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:05.800
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi defense on Shammit, great close out, misses a three.

73
00:04:06.240 --> 00:04:09.439
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi spins to the rim and his foul wasn't hitting

74
00:04:09.439 --> 00:04:11.639
<v Speaker 2>with his jumper, wasn't hitting with the floater in the

75
00:04:11.680 --> 00:04:13.599
<v Speaker 2>fourth how can you make an impact?

76
00:04:14.039 --> 00:04:15.759
<v Speaker 4>Get to the free throw line.

77
00:04:15.800 --> 00:04:17.959
<v Speaker 2>Harden is still on the bench at this point. By

78
00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:21.399
<v Speaker 2>the way, this is interesting, especially when it give you

79
00:04:21.399 --> 00:04:23.639
<v Speaker 2>the time that he entered the game. So Kawhi hits

80
00:04:23.680 --> 00:04:25.839
<v Speaker 2>the first misses the second. Clippers are up by nine.

81
00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:31.800
<v Speaker 2>Then Zuo defense on Og and Bogie gets his tenth rebound.

82
00:04:32.920 --> 00:04:34.519
<v Speaker 4>Derek Joone Junior misses a three.

83
00:04:34.920 --> 00:04:37.920
<v Speaker 2>Emir fouls heart in the back court. Harden comes into

84
00:04:37.920 --> 00:04:41.639
<v Speaker 2>the game at the five p twenty nine mark of.

85
00:04:41.639 --> 00:04:42.439
<v Speaker 4>The fourth quarter.

86
00:04:43.399 --> 00:04:47.480
<v Speaker 2>This is coach lou managing minutes. Harden only played thirty six.

87
00:04:48.759 --> 00:04:53.800
<v Speaker 2>That's nothing for him. With how many he's been tasked

88
00:04:53.839 --> 00:04:57.240
<v Speaker 2>with this season. Everything he's been asked to do, he

89
00:04:57.319 --> 00:05:00.480
<v Speaker 2>has done. Josh Hartwood hit a floater, seven point game.

90
00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:03.600
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi misses a jumper over McBride. He goes oh four

91
00:05:03.639 --> 00:05:07.240
<v Speaker 2>from the field in the fourth, but an og turnover

92
00:05:07.480 --> 00:05:10.319
<v Speaker 2>and then a Bogee tip in and the Clippers are

93
00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:12.879
<v Speaker 2>back up by nine after Boge gets the tip in

94
00:05:12.959 --> 00:05:15.439
<v Speaker 2>on a hard and miss. This is all about doing

95
00:05:15.480 --> 00:05:18.519
<v Speaker 2>the little things when shots aren't falling.

96
00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:21.360
<v Speaker 4>Bogey couldn't get anything to go.

97
00:05:22.680 --> 00:05:24.879
<v Speaker 2>He did have the two fallaways to start the fourth quarter,

98
00:05:25.000 --> 00:05:27.279
<v Speaker 2>but he hadn't scored entering it.

99
00:05:27.920 --> 00:05:29.839
<v Speaker 4>And then he's doing the dirty work getting tip ins.

100
00:05:31.079 --> 00:05:35.319
<v Speaker 2>Bridges jumper ninety six eighty nine, Clippers up seven, Bogie

101
00:05:35.360 --> 00:05:39.639
<v Speaker 2>another tip in off a zoom miss ninety eight eighty nine.

102
00:05:40.360 --> 00:05:45.079
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi defense again very good and Nico batoum a little

103
00:05:45.120 --> 00:05:50.240
<v Speaker 2>Bittumbo rip to kembe Matumbo with a Nico Batum block

104
00:05:50.319 --> 00:05:54.279
<v Speaker 2>but Toombo happened out there. Then Kawhi tough move splits

105
00:05:54.360 --> 00:05:57.120
<v Speaker 2>the defense goes to the line as he gets fouled

106
00:05:57.439 --> 00:06:01.319
<v Speaker 2>by Karl Anthony Towns put the pressure on the defense

107
00:06:02.360 --> 00:06:03.439
<v Speaker 2>back at the free throw line.

108
00:06:03.519 --> 00:06:03.759
<v Speaker 4>Hits.

109
00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:06.879
<v Speaker 2>Both Clippers are up by eleven first to one hundred.

110
00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:09.920
<v Speaker 2>Shoutout Ralph Lawler, it's one hundred to eighty nine. You're

111
00:06:09.920 --> 00:06:13.319
<v Speaker 2>starting to feel real good about this. One heart push shot.

112
00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:18.639
<v Speaker 2>Bogie misses a fallaway, Og misses Kawhi rebound. Doing the

113
00:06:18.639 --> 00:06:23.360
<v Speaker 2>little things. They did have a turnover. Kat would get

114
00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:27.120
<v Speaker 2>a bucket. Seven point game not over yet. Harden probably

115
00:06:27.160 --> 00:06:31.000
<v Speaker 2>the biggest bucket with a floater made it one two

116
00:06:31.040 --> 00:06:34.800
<v Speaker 2>to ninety three to give them that breathing room. Bridges

117
00:06:34.800 --> 00:06:37.720
<v Speaker 2>would get a lay up the other way, but this

118
00:06:37.839 --> 00:06:39.920
<v Speaker 2>might have been the one that sealed it.

119
00:06:41.079 --> 00:06:42.600
<v Speaker 4>Bogey misses a three pointer.

120
00:06:42.920 --> 00:06:50.560
<v Speaker 2>Couldn't get anything to fall there late, but but Kawhi

121
00:06:50.680 --> 00:06:56.879
<v Speaker 2>Leonard comes down with a big offensive rebound that was huge.

122
00:06:57.519 --> 00:06:59.600
<v Speaker 2>Then they had to foul James Harden. He went to

123
00:06:59.600 --> 00:07:01.639
<v Speaker 2>the free line put them up nine to twenty five

124
00:07:01.680 --> 00:07:03.480
<v Speaker 2>seconds left. Game.

125
00:07:05.920 --> 00:07:07.439
<v Speaker 4>Clippers weren't at their best.

126
00:07:08.759 --> 00:07:11.839
<v Speaker 2>By any stretch of the imagination, but they did what

127
00:07:11.879 --> 00:07:16.120
<v Speaker 2>they had to and their defense showed up. And that's

128
00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:21.040
<v Speaker 2>what they're supposed to hang their hat on. Offense comes

129
00:07:21.120 --> 00:07:24.920
<v Speaker 2>and goes, defense has to be there, and even with

130
00:07:25.000 --> 00:07:28.480
<v Speaker 2>how close it felt, the Clippers didn't go into clutch

131
00:07:28.519 --> 00:07:32.399
<v Speaker 2>time in this game, meaning the game was not within

132
00:07:32.480 --> 00:07:34.720
<v Speaker 2>five in the last five minutes. It was the first

133
00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:39.720
<v Speaker 2>time their last seven games that they weren't in clutch time,

134
00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:44.399
<v Speaker 2>meaning they have lost a lot of close games, and

135
00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:47.040
<v Speaker 2>there was some times where I was like, okay, well,

136
00:07:47.079 --> 00:07:50.720
<v Speaker 2>too close for comfort, but never got within five points

137
00:07:50.759 --> 00:07:51.759
<v Speaker 2>in the last five minutes.

138
00:07:54.120 --> 00:07:54.759
<v Speaker 4>Good to see that.

139
00:07:55.600 --> 00:07:57.600
<v Speaker 2>Good to see a lot of guys contribute in different

140
00:07:57.600 --> 00:08:02.120
<v Speaker 2>ways when what they do best wasn't working. These are

141
00:08:02.199 --> 00:08:04.879
<v Speaker 2>just the type of digg it out of the dirt games,

142
00:08:05.399 --> 00:08:08.920
<v Speaker 2>rock fights that you have to win. When a team

143
00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:11.319
<v Speaker 2>like the Knicks that is forty and twenty two and

144
00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:13.279
<v Speaker 2>now forty and twenty three I think on the season,

145
00:08:14.360 --> 00:08:17.959
<v Speaker 2>is missing their best player in Jalen Brunson. They still

146
00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:21.240
<v Speaker 2>had kat Karl Anthony Town struggled eight of twenty one

147
00:08:21.639 --> 00:08:24.360
<v Speaker 2>to get to his twenty three points. Mcale Bridges, who

148
00:08:24.399 --> 00:08:27.920
<v Speaker 2>they traded five first round picks for. You hear that,

149
00:08:28.000 --> 00:08:30.800
<v Speaker 2>Nico Harrison. They had to trade five first round picks

150
00:08:31.800 --> 00:08:35.759
<v Speaker 2>to get McHale Bridges. You got one back for Luca.

151
00:08:37.440 --> 00:08:40.720
<v Speaker 2>He had twenty two, an efficient twenty two, but he

152
00:08:40.759 --> 00:08:43.600
<v Speaker 2>only took twelve shots that's not enough to me. If

153
00:08:43.600 --> 00:08:45.879
<v Speaker 2>I'm a Knicks fan, I'm asking we need more from

154
00:08:45.919 --> 00:08:46.320
<v Speaker 2>you right now.

155
00:08:46.360 --> 00:08:46.519
<v Speaker 4>Bro.

156
00:08:47.279 --> 00:08:50.759
<v Speaker 2>Miles McBride was two of thirteen. Josh Hart six to thirteen.

157
00:08:51.000 --> 00:08:54.240
<v Speaker 2>He give Kawhi problems, especially in the first half. Kawhi

158
00:08:54.360 --> 00:09:00.360
<v Speaker 2>was really good in that third quarter. That one eighty

159
00:09:00.519 --> 00:09:04.320
<v Speaker 2>no look reverse layup he had over bridges was tough.

160
00:09:05.759 --> 00:09:08.919
<v Speaker 2>He also had a putback off a miss jumper that

161
00:09:08.960 --> 00:09:11.519
<v Speaker 2>I liked, and I'll fall away over a double team

162
00:09:11.519 --> 00:09:14.360
<v Speaker 2>in the third Kawhi watch is always happening.

163
00:09:15.039 --> 00:09:16.159
<v Speaker 4>I started here first.

164
00:09:17.279 --> 00:09:21.000
<v Speaker 2>Come on, Darien, you know I patent did some trademarked

165
00:09:21.039 --> 00:09:21.639
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi watch.

166
00:09:23.720 --> 00:09:24.559
<v Speaker 4>I was just kidding, bro.

167
00:09:26.200 --> 00:09:31.600
<v Speaker 2>But dj back knocks down two threes really really good

168
00:09:31.639 --> 00:09:35.600
<v Speaker 2>to see him out there and Bogie going zero four

169
00:09:35.679 --> 00:09:40.480
<v Speaker 2>from three but still making all these impactful plays, big

170
00:09:40.519 --> 00:09:44.960
<v Speaker 2>time performers from him like that could get in your head,

171
00:09:45.399 --> 00:09:49.399
<v Speaker 2>your three point marksman, you're missing, No forget that. You

172
00:09:49.399 --> 00:09:52.960
<v Speaker 2>can help in other ways. You can make good passes

173
00:09:53.000 --> 00:09:54.639
<v Speaker 2>on the pick and roll to eats the zubas, and

174
00:09:54.639 --> 00:09:56.240
<v Speaker 2>it's great to have another guy out there that can

175
00:09:56.279 --> 00:10:00.600
<v Speaker 2>do that. Coach Lu commented about that pregame Clippers win

176
00:10:00.639 --> 00:10:02.799
<v Speaker 2>one o five to ninety five over the Knicks. We'll

177
00:10:02.799 --> 00:10:04.879
<v Speaker 2>take a time out, we'll come back. I'll read some

178
00:10:04.919 --> 00:10:06.679
<v Speaker 2>of your comments. We'll get to your phone calls. Eight

179
00:10:06.720 --> 00:10:09.360
<v Speaker 2>six six nine eighty seven two five seventy eight six

180
00:10:09.399 --> 00:10:12.120
<v Speaker 2>six ninety seven two five seventy is the phone number.

181
00:10:13.840 --> 00:10:17.240
<v Speaker 2>Clippers didn't need to stay hot from three to win

182
00:10:17.279 --> 00:10:20.879
<v Speaker 2>in the second half, after going eleven of twenty from

183
00:10:20.919 --> 00:10:23.360
<v Speaker 2>three in the first half just four of eighteen from

184
00:10:23.399 --> 00:10:25.679
<v Speaker 2>three in the second half. They still win by ten

185
00:10:25.759 --> 00:10:28.600
<v Speaker 2>because the defense was there all night against the Knicks.

186
00:10:28.799 --> 00:10:31.559
<v Speaker 2>I'm out of Masland hearing into it dumb, and you're

203
00:11:20.519 --> 00:11:22.879

204
00:11:22.919 --> 00:11:24.399
<v Speaker 2>in a row, two and oh so far on this

205
00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:30.759
<v Speaker 2>homestand the Dome is home. It is great to be

206
00:11:30.840 --> 00:11:35.159
<v Speaker 2>back here. They've been dominant in their first season. Hear

207
00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:38.840
<v Speaker 2>it into a dome. God bless Steve Balmer for building

208
00:11:39.440 --> 00:11:42.720
<v Speaker 2>this cathedral, this basketball palace, the best place in the

209
00:11:42.720 --> 00:11:44.080
<v Speaker 2>world to watch a basketball game.

210
00:11:44.759 --> 00:11:50.080
<v Speaker 4>Just how many games in are we? We've played about thirty.

211
00:11:49.799 --> 00:11:52.919
<v Speaker 2>Or twenty nine games here so far this season, and

212
00:11:54.000 --> 00:11:55.840
<v Speaker 2>I still get excited coming here.

213
00:11:56.799 --> 00:11:57.639
<v Speaker 4>You guys should too.

214
00:11:58.600 --> 00:12:00.679
<v Speaker 2>You know there were some Knicks fans in the building tonight,

215
00:12:00.679 --> 00:12:01.840
<v Speaker 2>and I know everybody wants.

216
00:12:01.639 --> 00:12:03.559
<v Speaker 4>To see this. Spike Lee was here.

217
00:12:04.480 --> 00:12:09.759
<v Speaker 2>But Clipper Nations is still dominated and the Clippers' defense dominated.

218
00:12:11.840 --> 00:12:14.799
<v Speaker 2>This is them, maybe out of necessity, getting back to

219
00:12:14.840 --> 00:12:19.879
<v Speaker 2>playing elite defense because their offense. You know, I didn't

220
00:12:19.919 --> 00:12:23.200
<v Speaker 2>think it was great tonight. They shot forty two percent

221
00:12:23.240 --> 00:12:25.440
<v Speaker 2>from the field. I think the threes and the hot

222
00:12:25.480 --> 00:12:28.639
<v Speaker 2>three point shooting in the first half masked some poor

223
00:12:28.720 --> 00:12:32.879
<v Speaker 2>possessions and some poor process, but they did execute well

224
00:12:33.000 --> 00:12:37.159
<v Speaker 2>enough late. They did outscore them twenty six to seventeen

225
00:12:37.159 --> 00:12:39.320
<v Speaker 2>in the fourth quarter, and holding them to seventeen points

226
00:12:39.320 --> 00:12:44.960
<v Speaker 2>in the fourth is spectacular defense. And I thought there

227
00:12:45.039 --> 00:12:49.679
<v Speaker 2>was a really good ato by Coach Lou out of

228
00:12:49.679 --> 00:12:52.440
<v Speaker 2>a timeout. It was a lob over the defense to

229
00:12:52.519 --> 00:12:54.679
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi on the right block in the fourth quarter from

230
00:12:54.759 --> 00:12:58.320
<v Speaker 2>James Harden. They had to foul. There were just some

231
00:12:58.360 --> 00:13:01.600
<v Speaker 2>little things like you knew and have your best three

232
00:13:01.679 --> 00:13:04.600
<v Speaker 2>point shooting was gone in the second half, as hot

233
00:13:04.600 --> 00:13:06.720
<v Speaker 2>as they were in the first half, and they just

234
00:13:06.759 --> 00:13:09.440
<v Speaker 2>had to grind it out. And the Knicks still a

235
00:13:09.480 --> 00:13:13.159
<v Speaker 2>good defensive team without Jalen Brunson, There's still a team

236
00:13:13.200 --> 00:13:16.159
<v Speaker 2>that scraps and plays hard, and maybe the key word

237
00:13:16.200 --> 00:13:18.919
<v Speaker 2>there is scrap. The Clippers have to get their scrap back.

238
00:13:19.879 --> 00:13:21.639
<v Speaker 2>That's what coach Lou likes to talk about when he

239
00:13:21.679 --> 00:13:27.200
<v Speaker 2>talks about their defense. Our scrap was good postgame. I'm

240
00:13:27.240 --> 00:13:31.519
<v Speaker 2>interested to hear from coach lou I'll look for some

241
00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:36.720
<v Speaker 2>quotes here, but about the type of gritty victory this was,

242
00:13:36.799 --> 00:13:38.000
<v Speaker 2>and if he was pleased or.

243
00:13:38.039 --> 00:13:40.399
<v Speaker 4>Not with their defense.

244
00:13:41.519 --> 00:13:44.360
<v Speaker 2>James Harden had such a quiet twenty seven. Maybe that's

245
00:13:44.399 --> 00:13:46.279
<v Speaker 2>because he's coming off a game where he had fifty.

246
00:13:47.159 --> 00:13:53.000
<v Speaker 2>You know, he was only seven of twenty. I need

247
00:13:53.039 --> 00:13:59.080
<v Speaker 2>to look up scoring by quarter with James Harden. When

248
00:13:59.120 --> 00:14:05.679
<v Speaker 2>did he do his most damage. So in the first quarter, yeah,

249
00:14:05.679 --> 00:14:09.320
<v Speaker 2>it might have been that he had ten points. Ten

250
00:14:09.360 --> 00:14:11.960
<v Speaker 2>of his twenty seven. He was just three of seven

251
00:14:12.279 --> 00:14:14.679
<v Speaker 2>from the field, but he had four asis. He had

252
00:14:14.679 --> 00:14:18.759
<v Speaker 2>a couple of Really, I noticed James Harden was while

253
00:14:18.759 --> 00:14:21.080
<v Speaker 2>he was looking for a shot early, almost giving himself

254
00:14:21.120 --> 00:14:23.039
<v Speaker 2>a heat check. He took five threes in the first

255
00:14:23.120 --> 00:14:26.440
<v Speaker 2>quarter to see if he was still hot.

256
00:14:27.679 --> 00:14:28.840
<v Speaker 4>It really felt like.

257
00:14:28.759 --> 00:14:31.200
<v Speaker 2>He was looking to see I still got it from

258
00:14:31.200 --> 00:14:35.799
<v Speaker 2>Wednesday night. He had nine points in the second quarter

259
00:14:36.360 --> 00:14:39.679
<v Speaker 2>where he would hit three three pointers, so a little

260
00:14:39.679 --> 00:14:42.279
<v Speaker 2>bit hotter there. And the Clippers led sixty to fifty four.

261
00:14:42.720 --> 00:14:44.240
<v Speaker 2>And I want to check on the end of that

262
00:14:44.320 --> 00:14:48.000
<v Speaker 2>second quarter in my notes here, because the Clippers, so

263
00:14:48.240 --> 00:14:50.360
<v Speaker 2>they started this game on a nine to zero run.

264
00:14:51.120 --> 00:14:54.919
<v Speaker 2>They were up nine to nothing. They ended the first

265
00:14:55.000 --> 00:14:57.919
<v Speaker 2>quarter on a nine oh run. That was great to see.

266
00:14:58.039 --> 00:15:00.200
<v Speaker 2>It was thirty one to twenty five heading into the second.

267
00:15:02.600 --> 00:15:03.279
<v Speaker 4>And then.

268
00:15:05.840 --> 00:15:08.320
<v Speaker 2>Were they down by nine at one point? Yeah, they

269
00:15:08.320 --> 00:15:10.480
<v Speaker 2>were down by nine. In the second the Knicks had

270
00:15:10.480 --> 00:15:14.639
<v Speaker 2>a nine to zero run of their own. There was

271
00:15:14.679 --> 00:15:19.600
<v Speaker 2>a possession where Kawhi played extremely aggressive defense on McHale

272
00:15:19.600 --> 00:15:22.279
<v Speaker 2>Bridges on the left wing in the second quarter that

273
00:15:22.320 --> 00:15:24.399
<v Speaker 2>I noticed where he really got into him and Bridges

274
00:15:24.440 --> 00:15:27.159
<v Speaker 2>threw up some junk and it went Kawi was.

275
00:15:27.120 --> 00:15:27.600
<v Speaker 4>Like, damn.

276
00:15:28.679 --> 00:15:30.279
<v Speaker 2>But I thought the fourth quarter was some of the

277
00:15:30.279 --> 00:15:33.360
<v Speaker 2>best defense he's played since he came back really focusing

278
00:15:33.440 --> 00:15:35.960
<v Speaker 2>on that that end. But back in the second quarter,

279
00:15:39.080 --> 00:15:42.159
<v Speaker 2>there were times where at the end of possessions, I

280
00:15:42.240 --> 00:15:46.120
<v Speaker 2>was frustrated because the ball was finding U Banks instead

281
00:15:46.120 --> 00:15:48.799
<v Speaker 2>of Kawhi. Even if he has to something over a

282
00:15:48.799 --> 00:15:51.440
<v Speaker 2>double team, I think that's better than I drew U

283
00:15:51.480 --> 00:15:52.320
<v Speaker 2>Banks push shot.

284
00:15:53.480 --> 00:15:54.360
<v Speaker 4>It wasn't working.

285
00:15:55.919 --> 00:15:59.440
<v Speaker 2>Zuke came back in and they restored order in that

286
00:15:59.480 --> 00:16:04.200
<v Speaker 2>second Courts Zubots helped, but I'm looking for yes James

287
00:16:05.120 --> 00:16:10.399
<v Speaker 2>would at the end of the second quarter, he got

288
00:16:10.399 --> 00:16:13.559
<v Speaker 2>fouled on a three pointer, which was big for the Clippers.

289
00:16:15.799 --> 00:16:18.000
<v Speaker 2>He also I think made a big three. Of course,

290
00:16:18.039 --> 00:16:22.080
<v Speaker 2>Patum did damage in that area. You want to talk

291
00:16:22.120 --> 00:16:26.759
<v Speaker 2>about restoring order, Batum hit some really big shots for

292
00:16:26.799 --> 00:16:31.919
<v Speaker 2>the Clippers to give them leads or grab the lead

293
00:16:32.000 --> 00:16:37.320
<v Speaker 2>back immediately, because they were down forty five to thirty

294
00:16:37.440 --> 00:16:41.519
<v Speaker 2>six by nine at the six h four mark of

295
00:16:41.639 --> 00:16:45.919
<v Speaker 2>the second. In fact, the Clippers only had five points

296
00:16:46.639 --> 00:16:50.559
<v Speaker 2>in the second quarter midway through it. It was a

297
00:16:50.600 --> 00:16:54.039
<v Speaker 2>brutal watch. That lineup that was out there wasn't exactly

298
00:16:54.080 --> 00:16:57.159
<v Speaker 2>getting it done. I mean it was Kawhi, dj U

299
00:16:57.200 --> 00:16:59.639
<v Speaker 2>Banksamir Bogie for a period of time.

300
00:17:01.879 --> 00:17:02.919
<v Speaker 4>They really struggled.

301
00:17:04.960 --> 00:17:08.480
<v Speaker 2>That's what got them down by nine and killed Kawhi's

302
00:17:08.519 --> 00:17:12.319
<v Speaker 2>plus minus on the night. But James Harden came back

303
00:17:12.359 --> 00:17:16.519
<v Speaker 2>in and hit a three after they were down by nine.

304
00:17:16.559 --> 00:17:21.000
<v Speaker 2>That was a big shot to kind of restore order.

305
00:17:21.400 --> 00:17:23.920
<v Speaker 2>And then Kawhi knock won down. So you go from

306
00:17:23.960 --> 00:17:28.920
<v Speaker 2>being down by nine within the span of just about

307
00:17:28.960 --> 00:17:33.839
<v Speaker 2>forty seconds to being down by three. Time out Nicks,

308
00:17:34.680 --> 00:17:36.680
<v Speaker 2>They're a forty five to forty two with five point

309
00:17:36.720 --> 00:17:39.319
<v Speaker 2>fifteen left in the second. That was a really big

310
00:17:39.359 --> 00:17:45.559
<v Speaker 2>swing for the Clippers. That was big there Nico would

311
00:17:45.599 --> 00:17:49.720
<v Speaker 2>eventually hit a three pointer, and then near the end

312
00:17:49.880 --> 00:17:54.440
<v Speaker 2>of the second quarter, it was a Zubots dunk off

313
00:17:54.799 --> 00:17:58.960
<v Speaker 2>a really good feed from James Harden. I think that

314
00:17:59.279 --> 00:18:05.480
<v Speaker 2>was Harden had in this ballgame, guys. A crazy this

315
00:18:05.559 --> 00:18:08.720
<v Speaker 2>might have been in the third quarter what looked to

316
00:18:08.720 --> 00:18:13.039
<v Speaker 2>be a step back three that was actually a pass

317
00:18:13.200 --> 00:18:19.599
<v Speaker 2>underneath to Aviza Zubats for a bucket. It was special.

318
00:18:20.880 --> 00:18:26.000
<v Speaker 2>It was a crazy pass from James. Hit me up

319
00:18:26.039 --> 00:18:29.599
<v Speaker 2>if you guys remember the quarter that happened in because

320
00:18:30.319 --> 00:18:32.880
<v Speaker 2>I took note of that, or did I as I'm

321
00:18:32.880 --> 00:18:38.039
<v Speaker 2>trying to find it here. But Zoo buckets to start

322
00:18:38.079 --> 00:18:41.559
<v Speaker 2>the third quarter, and then after Kawhi got off to

323
00:18:41.599 --> 00:18:43.960
<v Speaker 2>that slow start, well they only had a one point

324
00:18:44.039 --> 00:18:47.079
<v Speaker 2>lead at the half. He hit that fade away over

325
00:18:47.119 --> 00:18:50.000
<v Speaker 2>a double team, the reverse where he got the step

326
00:18:50.000 --> 00:18:52.319
<v Speaker 2>on Josh Hard on the right wing, got to the

327
00:18:52.359 --> 00:18:57.480
<v Speaker 2>basket and had that spinning no look reverse layup over

328
00:18:57.559 --> 00:18:58.440
<v Speaker 2>Michale Bridges.

329
00:18:58.519 --> 00:19:03.799
<v Speaker 4>Really good to see, but.

330
00:19:03.839 --> 00:19:07.319
<v Speaker 2>Toom actually had this is funny. But Tom was so

331
00:19:07.480 --> 00:19:12.400
<v Speaker 2>hot from the outside that he fooled of each the

332
00:19:12.480 --> 00:19:16.119
<v Speaker 2>Zoo boss in the third quarter on a jump pass

333
00:19:16.559 --> 00:19:19.759
<v Speaker 2>where Zoo was waiting underneath the basket in case he

334
00:19:19.759 --> 00:19:23.400
<v Speaker 2>missed the three, but instead but Toom hit him in

335
00:19:23.400 --> 00:19:28.559
<v Speaker 2>the face with the basketball basically as it was a pass.

336
00:19:29.559 --> 00:19:32.960
<v Speaker 2>That's how unselfish he is. Maybe a little bit too

337
00:19:33.119 --> 00:19:39.160
<v Speaker 2>unselfish in that moment there, but all in all, solid

338
00:19:39.240 --> 00:19:42.440
<v Speaker 2>victory for the Clippers. Do have a huge game coming

339
00:19:42.519 --> 00:19:48.319
<v Speaker 2>up on Sunday back here at into it Dome against

340
00:19:48.319 --> 00:19:53.400
<v Speaker 2>a King's team that is really putting it together as

341
00:19:53.440 --> 00:19:57.240
<v Speaker 2>of late, and got a big victory over a former

342
00:19:57.359 --> 00:20:01.559
<v Speaker 2>King in dearon Fox and the same Antonio Spurs tonight

343
00:20:01.720 --> 00:20:02.640
<v Speaker 2>up in Sacktown.

344
00:20:05.559 --> 00:20:06.640
<v Speaker 4>Jay Dogg said.

345
00:20:08.279 --> 00:20:10.880
<v Speaker 2>It was with one minute left in the quarter. Which

346
00:20:10.960 --> 00:20:15.480
<v Speaker 2>quarter you're saying, second quarter? So that was the play

347
00:20:15.519 --> 00:20:18.440
<v Speaker 2>I was thinking of that that Zubot's dunked and near

348
00:20:18.480 --> 00:20:21.599
<v Speaker 2>the end of the second quarter that was the James

349
00:20:21.599 --> 00:20:25.000
<v Speaker 2>Harden step back three. Wait no, he's just passing a

350
00:20:25.039 --> 00:20:28.240
<v Speaker 2>download of eats Zoobots. Everybody reacted to that step back

351
00:20:28.279 --> 00:20:33.559
<v Speaker 2>three and James found Aviata Zubos instead. Awesome to see.

352
00:20:34.000 --> 00:20:36.200
<v Speaker 2>Also good to see. I joked, I needed Zoo getting

353
00:20:36.200 --> 00:20:38.319
<v Speaker 2>twenty shots every game. I know that's not gonna happen,

354
00:20:38.519 --> 00:20:40.920
<v Speaker 2>but he still got up eighteen and a game with

355
00:20:41.119 --> 00:20:46.079
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi Leonard back. So that's important to note. Last game

356
00:20:46.160 --> 00:20:48.680
<v Speaker 2>no Kawhi, this game with Kawhi, he still got up

357
00:20:48.720 --> 00:20:51.599
<v Speaker 2>eighteen shots. James got up twenty, Kawhi got up eighteen.

358
00:20:53.599 --> 00:20:56.680
<v Speaker 2>Clippers winning at one oh five to ninety five over

359
00:20:56.720 --> 00:20:59.839
<v Speaker 2>the Knicks. Here at into a home. Let's go to

360
00:21:00.119 --> 00:21:05.400
<v Speaker 2>Demetrius and Manhattan Beach. Demetrius, you got thirty seconds there.

361
00:21:06.640 --> 00:21:09.359
<v Speaker 5>Welcome back to so cal Adam. I just want to

362
00:21:09.359 --> 00:21:14.759
<v Speaker 5>make two quick corners, Adam. Last year they were shooting

363
00:21:14.920 --> 00:21:18.079
<v Speaker 5>thirty eight percent from three point range. If I'm not mistaken,

364
00:21:18.519 --> 00:21:22.319
<v Speaker 5>I think they were number two in free thow attempt

365
00:21:22.400 --> 00:21:25.519
<v Speaker 5>at seventy seven percent as a team. I'm coming to

366
00:21:25.559 --> 00:21:28.640
<v Speaker 5>here just to give corners. If you know, noticed the

367
00:21:28.720 --> 00:21:31.440
<v Speaker 5>last game before when they got bleue out when I

368
00:21:31.480 --> 00:21:33.160
<v Speaker 5>spoke to you, I said there were a light at

369
00:21:33.160 --> 00:21:34.920
<v Speaker 5>the end of the tunnel. When I mentioned to you

370
00:21:35.000 --> 00:21:37.480
<v Speaker 5>about Big Zoo and we talked about it, and then

371
00:21:37.559 --> 00:21:39.920
<v Speaker 5>you've been raving over get this guy the ball.

372
00:21:40.319 --> 00:21:43.400
<v Speaker 2>So now I've been screaming about getting Big Zoo to

373
00:21:43.440 --> 00:21:46.799
<v Speaker 2>the ball for like three years. Now I got, I got,

374
00:21:46.799 --> 00:21:48.200
<v Speaker 2>I got the tweets and the receipts.

375
00:21:49.319 --> 00:21:51.799
<v Speaker 5>Now you do, you're absolutely we own the same thing.

376
00:21:52.240 --> 00:21:54.240
<v Speaker 5>And I'm and i'm and I think ty Lu has

377
00:21:54.279 --> 00:21:58.119
<v Speaker 5>been listening to one of us. But you know, you

378
00:21:58.240 --> 00:22:00.160
<v Speaker 5>have to get this guy the ball in order to

379
00:22:00.240 --> 00:22:02.880
<v Speaker 5>incorporate and win games. And I want to make this

380
00:22:03.000 --> 00:22:05.480
<v Speaker 5>point when I told you if you noticed the last

381
00:22:05.480 --> 00:22:07.920
<v Speaker 5>time I spoke to you, when they blew out that game,

382
00:22:07.960 --> 00:22:10.880
<v Speaker 5>I said, Adam, there's light at the end of the tunnel.

383
00:22:10.880 --> 00:22:15.400
<v Speaker 5>We got four players that can average double figures. Now

384
00:22:15.519 --> 00:22:19.000
<v Speaker 5>that then, incorporating Zuo, we got Zu, we got hardened.

385
00:22:19.039 --> 00:22:21.480
<v Speaker 5>We need, you know, nineteen and ten out of him.

386
00:22:21.759 --> 00:22:24.200
<v Speaker 5>Big Zoo is going to give us nineteen and fourteen.

387
00:22:24.640 --> 00:22:28.079
<v Speaker 5>Kawhi Leonard has averaged twenty in his last seven games.

388
00:22:28.079 --> 00:22:31.400
<v Speaker 5>Now he's umping up, he's getting more valuable on the

389
00:22:31.440 --> 00:22:35.200
<v Speaker 5>defense and offensive rebound. He's feeling more comfortable. Norman Powell

390
00:22:35.240 --> 00:22:38.200
<v Speaker 5>will then come back. So now I'm looking at the bench.

391
00:22:38.960 --> 00:22:41.880
<v Speaker 5>With this type of defense we're playing, we already talked

392
00:22:41.880 --> 00:22:44.839
<v Speaker 5>about it, Adam, we need the whole team in order

393
00:22:44.880 --> 00:22:47.720
<v Speaker 5>to compete, because that's just where we're at right now.

394
00:22:47.960 --> 00:22:50.920
<v Speaker 5>So we got four players that can average double figures.

395
00:22:51.119 --> 00:22:56.759
<v Speaker 5>Bogie Junior, and several guys on the bench like Batun

396
00:22:56.839 --> 00:22:59.519
<v Speaker 5>who was lights lights out tonight, And we can get

397
00:22:59.599 --> 00:23:02.279
<v Speaker 5>thirty off the bench, get our guys to have his

398
00:23:02.400 --> 00:23:08.039
<v Speaker 5>double figures Zoo Kawhi Leonard, you know, twenty three and eight,

399
00:23:08.240 --> 00:23:11.160
<v Speaker 5>twenty four nine. I think we're going to be smoking

400
00:23:11.240 --> 00:23:13.960
<v Speaker 5>going into the playoffs. And that's the recipe. Get back

401
00:23:13.960 --> 00:23:17.200
<v Speaker 5>to shooting to thirty eight percent from three point range,

402
00:23:17.599 --> 00:23:20.519
<v Speaker 5>get back to shooting seventy well eight percent.

403
00:23:20.880 --> 00:23:24.200
<v Speaker 2>Here's the thing comparing this team shooting numbers to last

404
00:23:24.240 --> 00:23:28.480
<v Speaker 2>year's team, that team was a better shooting team a period.

405
00:23:28.759 --> 00:23:33.440
<v Speaker 2>Like for all the mocking people do of Paul George

406
00:23:34.200 --> 00:23:37.680
<v Speaker 2>is a very good, high volume three point shooter, it's

407
00:23:37.759 --> 00:23:40.519
<v Speaker 2>not the same. And also the gravity of having him

408
00:23:40.559 --> 00:23:43.680
<v Speaker 2>out there leads to more open shots for players. And

409
00:23:43.799 --> 00:23:47.119
<v Speaker 2>when you're playing Chris Dunn and Derek Jones junior guys

410
00:23:47.440 --> 00:23:49.559
<v Speaker 2>who are known for being a little bit above thirty

411
00:23:49.599 --> 00:23:52.839
<v Speaker 2>percent from the outside for their careers, when they're playing

412
00:23:52.960 --> 00:23:55.599
<v Speaker 2>heavier minutes on your team and they weren't there last year,

413
00:23:56.160 --> 00:23:58.640
<v Speaker 2>that's going to affect your overall three point shooting. So

414
00:23:58.720 --> 00:24:01.960
<v Speaker 2>I think this is more of a person LSU and

415
00:24:02.039 --> 00:24:04.759
<v Speaker 2>I'm not saying they can't have hot streaks. Tonight the

416
00:24:04.759 --> 00:24:07.960
<v Speaker 2>Clippers first half eleven to fifty from the outside. But

417
00:24:08.519 --> 00:24:11.079
<v Speaker 2>Nico Patombs not going five to seven every game, my friend,

418
00:24:12.119 --> 00:24:13.480
<v Speaker 2>that's not how I know you.

419
00:24:13.440 --> 00:24:15.599
<v Speaker 5>Have to go. And I agree with you, Adam, and

420
00:24:15.640 --> 00:24:17.720
<v Speaker 5>I know you gotta go. But I will say this,

421
00:24:18.799 --> 00:24:20.839
<v Speaker 5>the light is at the end of the tunnel. I

422
00:24:20.880 --> 00:24:23.599
<v Speaker 5>love what I'm seeing. Like you say, two game winning streak,

423
00:24:24.000 --> 00:24:27.319
<v Speaker 5>that's fine, getting back to our winning ways. We wanted

424
00:24:27.359 --> 00:24:30.279
<v Speaker 5>to win ugly tonight, so it gave Todd Lou an

425
00:24:30.359 --> 00:24:33.119
<v Speaker 5>opportunity and the clutch time to say, hey, we can

426
00:24:33.200 --> 00:24:35.559
<v Speaker 5>do more. If we not, our shot is not falling.

427
00:24:35.599 --> 00:24:38.920
<v Speaker 5>That's haint guard heads on the defensive enda, because.

428
00:24:38.640 --> 00:24:41.680
<v Speaker 2>That's what I was saying, Demetrius. I appreciate the phone call,

429
00:24:41.759 --> 00:24:44.079
<v Speaker 2>my friend. We got to take a quick time out here.

430
00:24:44.240 --> 00:24:45.279
<v Speaker 2>But I'm with you.

431
00:24:45.279 --> 00:24:48.000
<v Speaker 4>You know that. I think on nights like this where

432
00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:48.559
<v Speaker 4>you only.

433
00:24:48.359 --> 00:24:50.839
<v Speaker 2>Shoot forty two percent from the field, you have to

434
00:24:50.839 --> 00:24:54.240
<v Speaker 2>get back to basics, get back to playing great defense

435
00:24:54.240 --> 00:24:57.000
<v Speaker 2>out there. All it for some post game quotes from

436
00:24:57.000 --> 00:24:59.000
<v Speaker 2>coach lou coming up. Clippers win one on five to

<v Speaker 2>Here at into a domeb welcome back. I'm out of Moslin.

445
00:25:26.079 --> 00:25:31.200
<v Speaker 2>Who got the boat? Don Bogdanovich career high twelve rebounds,

446
00:25:31.279 --> 00:25:35.200
<v Speaker 2>three offensive rebounds, all eight of his points coming in

447
00:25:35.200 --> 00:25:38.400
<v Speaker 2>the fourth, four of them coming off of offensive rebounds

448
00:25:38.440 --> 00:25:39.200
<v Speaker 2>for tip ins.

449
00:25:39.799 --> 00:25:40.240
<v Speaker 4>Apparently.

450
00:25:40.279 --> 00:25:43.240
<v Speaker 2>Coach lu said postgame, Jeff Van Gundy had been challenging

451
00:25:44.000 --> 00:25:47.559
<v Speaker 2>vow Don to get on the glass a little bit more.

452
00:25:48.519 --> 00:25:51.240
<v Speaker 2>I think it worked out. He's done this, or I

453
00:25:51.279 --> 00:25:54.559
<v Speaker 2>guess he puts like notes in guys lockers, locker rooms

454
00:25:55.079 --> 00:25:59.480
<v Speaker 2>or lockers, slips a note in there, challenges guys to

455
00:25:59.559 --> 00:26:02.119
<v Speaker 2>do something that's out of the ordinary, maybe for them,

456
00:26:02.440 --> 00:26:07.480
<v Speaker 2>but something they're capable of doing. I love that from JVG.

457
00:26:08.839 --> 00:26:11.759
<v Speaker 2>Coach leucaid postgame that Kawhi and James Harden both trust

458
00:26:12.000 --> 00:26:14.599
<v Speaker 2>bo Don Bogdanovitch down the stretch of close games to

459
00:26:14.640 --> 00:26:16.839
<v Speaker 2>handle the ball and make decisions to alleviate some of

460
00:26:16.839 --> 00:26:17.799
<v Speaker 2>the pressure off of them.

461
00:26:18.359 --> 00:26:18.880
<v Speaker 4>I did too.

462
00:26:19.119 --> 00:26:22.880
<v Speaker 2>I've been telling everybody like, it's not an option to

463
00:26:23.000 --> 00:26:25.920
<v Speaker 2>just go away from Bogey with the way this team

464
00:26:25.960 --> 00:26:29.240
<v Speaker 2>has been constructed, so people that were hating on his

465
00:26:29.279 --> 00:26:31.400
<v Speaker 2>three point shooting, and it's been better as of late,

466
00:26:31.400 --> 00:26:33.039
<v Speaker 2>although he went oh for four in this game, but

467
00:26:33.079 --> 00:26:38.079
<v Speaker 2>it has been better. Bogie is too talented of a player.

468
00:26:39.519 --> 00:26:45.640
<v Speaker 2>You bet on his career numbers and things evening out,

469
00:26:46.119 --> 00:26:49.880
<v Speaker 2>you stick with him. He's thirty two, He's moving fine.

470
00:26:50.839 --> 00:26:54.480
<v Speaker 2>Three point shooting has been a confidence thing. It's a

471
00:26:54.519 --> 00:26:58.240
<v Speaker 2>bummer that tonight he goes oh four. After the last

472
00:26:58.240 --> 00:27:01.480
<v Speaker 2>five games he had been shooting forty seven percent from

473
00:27:01.519 --> 00:27:02.279
<v Speaker 2>the outside.

474
00:27:02.759 --> 00:27:04.880
<v Speaker 4>But he found other.

475
00:27:04.759 --> 00:27:07.519
<v Speaker 2>Ways to contribute and impact the game and win them

476
00:27:07.559 --> 00:27:12.240
<v Speaker 2>the game. They don't win without Bogie and him being

477
00:27:12.279 --> 00:27:15.319
<v Speaker 2>able to run pick and roll where you see like

478
00:27:15.400 --> 00:27:18.720
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi doesn't have anything for a possession. I saw this

479
00:27:18.759 --> 00:27:22.000
<v Speaker 2>in the fourth quarter. The ISO wasn't there. He gave

480
00:27:22.039 --> 00:27:24.400
<v Speaker 2>it up to Bogey. Bogey ran pick and roll with

481
00:27:24.400 --> 00:27:29.680
<v Speaker 2>a Visa Zubas. It just makes them more diverse offensively,

482
00:27:30.200 --> 00:27:34.400
<v Speaker 2>and it gives guys a breather from having to do

483
00:27:34.599 --> 00:27:41.279
<v Speaker 2>so much offensively. And James Harden and Kawhi Leonard, that's

484
00:27:41.400 --> 00:27:45.519
<v Speaker 2>the point of this having another ball handler out there.

485
00:27:45.839 --> 00:27:49.480
<v Speaker 2>So now you got him and Chris Donne. When Ben

486
00:27:49.519 --> 00:27:53.240
<v Speaker 2>Simmons comes back, that can be big for them next

487
00:27:53.279 --> 00:27:58.119
<v Speaker 2>to James and Kawhi in that ball handling responsibility in

488
00:27:58.160 --> 00:28:00.880
<v Speaker 2>those duties. Anytime you can help out those guys, even

489
00:28:00.960 --> 00:28:02.519
<v Speaker 2>just a little bit, I think it makes a big

490
00:28:02.519 --> 00:28:07.799
<v Speaker 2>difference when it comes to energy late. You take the

491
00:28:07.880 --> 00:28:11.119
<v Speaker 2>ball out of their hands and playmaking responsibilities and having

492
00:28:11.160 --> 00:28:13.480
<v Speaker 2>to do so much on ball, work out their hands

493
00:28:13.480 --> 00:28:15.880
<v Speaker 2>a little bit. Take some of that use of trading away.

494
00:28:16.519 --> 00:28:21.680
<v Speaker 2>It will pay dividends for you. Jose and Southgate who's

495
00:28:21.720 --> 00:28:23.759
<v Speaker 2>known as Jay in the chat, you're on Clipper stop

496
00:28:23.759 --> 00:28:24.880
<v Speaker 2>without a Molls and what's up, Hoose?

497
00:28:26.880 --> 00:28:29.440
<v Speaker 6>What's up? Out of man? I was ready to call

498
00:28:29.559 --> 00:28:32.079
<v Speaker 6>in to say that Kly was funny looking at fishing tonight,

499
00:28:32.559 --> 00:28:34.559
<v Speaker 6>but then he goes oh for four in that fourth quarter.

500
00:28:35.480 --> 00:28:37.160
<v Speaker 6>But it's all right, he's still getting to his spose,

501
00:28:37.200 --> 00:28:39.319
<v Speaker 6>He's still got that burst. I really want to call

502
00:28:39.440 --> 00:28:44.079
<v Speaker 6>in just to say shout out to Nico aka mister

503
00:28:44.160 --> 00:28:48.720
<v Speaker 6>Bingo tonight. And he was also looking like block. Dune

504
00:28:49.079 --> 00:28:50.440
<v Speaker 6>Lubak was looking.

505
00:28:50.160 --> 00:28:53.759
<v Speaker 5>Like block and you don't want done done. I love

506
00:28:53.759 --> 00:28:55.480
<v Speaker 5>a baby too, Oh Bat.

507
00:28:55.559 --> 00:28:58.559
<v Speaker 6>I'm back at home post All Star break. Thank you

508
00:28:58.559 --> 00:28:59.960
<v Speaker 6>Adam for this Clippers content.

509
00:29:00.480 --> 00:29:01.000
<v Speaker 3>Love call.

510
00:29:01.160 --> 00:29:06.599
<v Speaker 2>Clipper Jose and Southgate with the let's go Clippers chant

511
00:29:07.079 --> 00:29:09.720
<v Speaker 2>at the end, as he's prone to do with all

512
00:29:09.799 --> 00:29:12.119
<v Speaker 2>his calls. We'll take a time out. Clippers win one

513
00:29:12.160 --> 00:29:14.680
<v Speaker 2>O five to ninety five over the Knicks. Here at

514
00:29:14.720 --> 00:29:18.599
<v Speaker 2>into its home. Clippers back here against Sacktown on Sunday night.

515
00:29:18.839 --> 00:29:22.559
<v Speaker 2>Huge battle. When it comes to seeding playoff positioning, they're

516
00:29:22.640 --> 00:29:24.519
<v Speaker 2>right next to the Kings and the standings will update

517
00:29:24.519 --> 00:29:27.039
<v Speaker 2>you on that coming up next. I'm out of Masland

518
00:29:27.240 --> 00:29:29.119
<v Speaker 2>and this is Clippers Sockeyer on the M five seventy

519
00:29:29.200 --> 00:29:31.920
<v Speaker 2>LA Sports.

520
00:29:32.240 --> 00:29:33.839
<v Speaker 1>I love this team. I never miss a game.

521
00:29:34.240 --> 00:29:38.240
<v Speaker 3>You're listening to LA Clippers Basketball free Ball, Yes, sir,

522
00:29:38.799 --> 00:29:41.599
<v Speaker 3>right here on the LA Clippers Audio network.

523
00:29:44.240 --> 00:29:46.440
<v Speaker 4>Is my box score wrong? No, it's right.

524
00:29:47.039 --> 00:29:49.680
<v Speaker 2>James Hardenfor did finish with twenty seven. The Clippers win

525
00:29:50.319 --> 00:29:53.160
<v Speaker 2>one O five to ninety five over the Knicks. Twenty

526
00:29:53.200 --> 00:29:56.240
<v Speaker 2>seven was a game high in this one. No Jalen

527
00:29:56.279 --> 00:30:01.000
<v Speaker 2>Brunson for New York McHale Bridges had twenty two, Karl

528
00:30:01.039 --> 00:30:03.279
<v Speaker 2>Anthony Towns had twenty three, but on eight of twenty

529
00:30:03.279 --> 00:30:07.440
<v Speaker 2>one shooting, and Nico batoom got the start partially because

530
00:30:07.640 --> 00:30:09.039
<v Speaker 2>Carl Anthony Towns.

531
00:30:10.799 --> 00:30:11.640
<v Speaker 4>I like that move.

532
00:30:12.240 --> 00:30:16.279
<v Speaker 2>And as I've been saying for months for everybody complaining

533
00:30:16.319 --> 00:30:19.000
<v Speaker 2>about the Clippers not having or not getting that power forward,

534
00:30:19.519 --> 00:30:23.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm telling you, Nico Batoum can be the secret weapon

535
00:30:23.279 --> 00:30:25.920
<v Speaker 2>power forward in a playoff series, depending on the matchup.

536
00:30:26.400 --> 00:30:30.359
<v Speaker 2>A guy who can start games at power forward, why because.

537
00:30:30.119 --> 00:30:30.839
<v Speaker 4>He can shoot?

538
00:30:31.200 --> 00:30:34.000
<v Speaker 2>Did you see him tonight five to seven from the outside.

539
00:30:34.640 --> 00:30:36.759
<v Speaker 2>You need somebody that plays power forward that can shoot

540
00:30:36.759 --> 00:30:37.160
<v Speaker 2>next to him.

541
00:30:37.160 --> 00:30:38.319
<v Speaker 4>Beat to zoubots.

542
00:30:40.200 --> 00:30:42.680
<v Speaker 2>They have been I've been saying this. I think they're

543
00:30:42.720 --> 00:30:47.160
<v Speaker 2>saving Nico. That's why he hasn't been playing heavy minutes.

544
00:30:47.200 --> 00:30:51.599
<v Speaker 2>Tonight he played thirty four. Oh, I heard the Jimmy

545
00:30:51.640 --> 00:30:54.720
<v Speaker 2>Butler chant. That was pretty good from the wall as

546
00:30:54.799 --> 00:30:56.880
<v Speaker 2>Carl Anthony Towns was the free throw line and he

547
00:30:56.880 --> 00:30:59.799
<v Speaker 2>did acknowledge you there waved you off after he.

548
00:30:59.759 --> 00:31:05.839
<v Speaker 4>Made both Towns. Yeah, the Wall was bringing it tonight.

549
00:31:06.000 --> 00:31:06.920
<v Speaker 4>That was very good.

550
00:31:08.200 --> 00:31:12.200
<v Speaker 2>The Scaredy with a picture of Karl Anthony Towns Scaredy

551
00:31:12.279 --> 00:31:17.240
<v Speaker 2>Cat poster board pretty good. I like Karl Anthony Towns.

552
00:31:17.359 --> 00:31:20.680
<v Speaker 2>I know he's going through a hard time. He had

553
00:31:20.680 --> 00:31:25.599
<v Speaker 2>a knee injury then was out for personal reasons. Yeah,

554
00:31:26.119 --> 00:31:29.920
<v Speaker 2>Cat's a good one. I like him. But he had

555
00:31:29.960 --> 00:31:35.960
<v Speaker 2>an off night and the Clippers defense had a non night.

556
00:31:37.279 --> 00:31:41.920
<v Speaker 2>But that should not be an on off switch. The

557
00:31:41.960 --> 00:31:46.640
<v Speaker 2>defense should always be on, like that's one of those

558
00:31:46.720 --> 00:31:50.559
<v Speaker 2>light switches that's taped on at all times. Okay, usually

559
00:31:50.559 --> 00:31:54.920
<v Speaker 2>I think they're taped off, but maybe you're painting around

560
00:31:54.920 --> 00:31:59.960
<v Speaker 2>it or something. It's that defense needs to be there

561
00:32:00.960 --> 00:32:03.000
<v Speaker 2>because the last fifteen games heading into this one, the

562
00:32:03.000 --> 00:32:05.119
<v Speaker 2>Clippers haven't been nearly good enough on that end. They've

563
00:32:05.160 --> 00:32:10.119
<v Speaker 2>been basically a bottom ten defensive team. They're too good

564
00:32:10.400 --> 00:32:11.079
<v Speaker 2>on the season.

565
00:32:11.240 --> 00:32:13.720
<v Speaker 4>They're number three, which.

566
00:32:13.519 --> 00:32:15.880
<v Speaker 2>Tells you how good they have been overall to still

567
00:32:15.920 --> 00:32:17.920
<v Speaker 2>be number three when your last fifteen games you've been

568
00:32:17.960 --> 00:32:24.920
<v Speaker 2>a bottom ten defense. Some people are bringing Dumers here

569
00:32:27.119 --> 00:32:30.039
<v Speaker 2>saying it's hardened show. I watched the interactional lot with

570
00:32:30.119 --> 00:32:33.920
<v Speaker 2>him and Kawhi tonight because Harden just had fifty.

571
00:32:34.359 --> 00:32:35.359
<v Speaker 4>Kawhi just came back.

572
00:32:35.960 --> 00:32:39.160
<v Speaker 2>And I've been talking about that theme of how to

573
00:32:39.240 --> 00:32:40.839
<v Speaker 2>run your offense, and I do think you need to

574
00:32:40.880 --> 00:32:43.079
<v Speaker 2>run through Kawhi. I think it was much more balanced.

575
00:32:43.119 --> 00:32:44.839
<v Speaker 2>I think they were trying to get him more involved.

576
00:32:44.839 --> 00:32:48.480
<v Speaker 2>There were more set plays going to Kawhi. James Harden

577
00:32:48.519 --> 00:32:49.799
<v Speaker 2>came up to him at the free throw line in

578
00:32:49.799 --> 00:32:51.440
<v Speaker 2>the fourth quarter and gave him a little tap on

579
00:32:51.480 --> 00:32:55.759
<v Speaker 2>the chest, come on, let's go. Kawhi was struggling with

580
00:32:55.759 --> 00:32:59.440
<v Speaker 2>his shot. I like seeing that encouragement there from his teammate.

581
00:33:01.920 --> 00:33:05.440
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi with twenty on six of eighteen shooting. But defense

582
00:33:05.559 --> 00:33:09.680
<v Speaker 2>was really good in the fourth Hussell was really good.

583
00:33:09.880 --> 00:33:13.640
<v Speaker 2>Watched the tape of Kawhi in the fourth quarter, just

584
00:33:13.920 --> 00:33:18.200
<v Speaker 2>isow him on some of these plays. That's probably the

585
00:33:18.200 --> 00:33:22.640
<v Speaker 2>best he's looked this season defensively. So the Clippers improved

586
00:33:22.640 --> 00:33:27.480
<v Speaker 2>to thirty four and twenty nine. They're currently eighth in

587
00:33:27.559 --> 00:33:33.720
<v Speaker 2>the West, behind Minnesota by a game. As they won tonight.

588
00:33:34.920 --> 00:33:40.599
<v Speaker 2>That was unfortunate. They won by two in Miami. The

589
00:33:40.680 --> 00:33:42.960
<v Speaker 2>other team that won is right behind them in the

590
00:33:42.960 --> 00:33:49.880
<v Speaker 2>Sacramento Kings. They took out San Antonio now with dearon Fox.

591
00:33:50.920 --> 00:33:54.759
<v Speaker 2>Fox only went six of seventeen six from three sixteen points.

592
00:33:54.839 --> 00:33:57.799
<v Speaker 2>Sack lavine at thirty six and guess what. The Clippers

593
00:33:57.799 --> 00:34:00.240
<v Speaker 2>host the Kings. Hear it into a dome on Sunday.

594
00:34:01.160 --> 00:34:04.039
<v Speaker 2>Huge game. The Kings are a half game back of

595
00:34:04.079 --> 00:34:06.839
<v Speaker 2>the Clippers. The Clippers have won the first two games

596
00:34:07.119 --> 00:34:10.840
<v Speaker 2>in the head to head series this season, meaning if

597
00:34:10.880 --> 00:34:14.360
<v Speaker 2>they win on Sunday, they will have the head to

598
00:34:14.360 --> 00:34:21.880
<v Speaker 2>head tiebreaker over Sacramento. Huge, huge game, tip off at

599
00:34:21.920 --> 00:34:27.559
<v Speaker 2>six thirty pregame at five point thirty Sunday night, biggest

600
00:34:27.599 --> 00:34:31.159
<v Speaker 2>game of the season to date. Because of the playoff

601
00:34:31.159 --> 00:34:34.599
<v Speaker 2>implications here, they need to get that tiebreaker. They need

602
00:34:34.639 --> 00:34:37.920
<v Speaker 2>to create more distance between themselves and the Sacramento Kinks,

603
00:34:38.280 --> 00:34:40.679
<v Speaker 2>who have been playing much better balls seven and three

604
00:34:40.719 --> 00:34:43.559
<v Speaker 2>their last ten. The new group has actually been buying

605
00:34:43.599 --> 00:34:45.880
<v Speaker 2>in coming into this game. I believe over their last

606
00:34:46.199 --> 00:34:49.079
<v Speaker 2>handful or so they've been top ten in offense and defense.

607
00:34:50.039 --> 00:34:52.199
<v Speaker 2>I'll have a guest on tomorrow from Sacktown to help
