Speaker 1: What's going on. Welcome to the stream.
Speaker 2: We're here, but work's going crazy. Our website was down
to anyone trying to use the National History Museum website
right now. But it's back up.
Speaker 3: Folks work in the emails like strong bad.
Speaker 2: Let's go, Yes, dude, shout out all the strong bad
people out there. Welcome to the clips and dip live. Hang.
We apologized for our last YouTube video not uploading. That
was completely out of our hands, and I would argue
not our fault in any way. No, not at all,
agree or disagree.
Speaker 3: Not anyone here at least to make me go after
the US Post Office again. No, it had nothing to
do technical issues. Happens.
Speaker 2: It happens. Not a whole bunch of to really talk about.
We're gonna talk about Adam's club over country feelings with
France and Team USA playing tomorrow at twelve thirty. If
you're in the chat and you just want to send
us questions, we're answering them. How you guys feeling How
this is really the dole drums of Clippers offseason right now?
Right this is where aside from Nick Patoom and some
Rico Heines run stuff, we're gonna talk about how y'all
do it will? I know last episode you were very
settled into the off season.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, I'm doing great. Uh you know, watching
my movies, eating my popcorn, you know, having having having
a good summer. Uh No, it's it's a weird time
we are with the three of us are going to
an intuit domb tour, which Adam have you? Have you
been before already or is this gonna be your first
time too?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 3: Into a dumb version going on Sunday with you guys
all right? Looking forward to it.
Speaker 2: I'm incredibly excited. I hope we get to hoop on
the community court because that thing looks awesome and I
just want footage of destroying Adam on the low block?
Are we Adam?
Speaker 3: So?
Speaker 2: Are you? Are you? I'm excited for into it as well.
First visit? Should we all carpool? Adam? You're coming from
the valley? Do you want to check this up?
Speaker 3: That sounds good.
Speaker 2: I can do that. We can claim bake the car
on the way there. How Adam, what do you think
has happened in the Gold Medal? Do you think France
has a shot? I think they're getting ran out of
the crowd. Will be hype, which will be very cool
to see both both men's and women's basketball finals for
the first time in history. Is USA versus France as like?
And USA versus the host country? I don't know. I
got the US by like, I got the US by
ten plus.
Speaker 3: I think they kind of got scared straight. They're scared
straight more episode or whatever, or they're up against the
wall and the drill sergeant's going after the kids and
trying to put them back on the straight and narrow.
That's probably what they got with that close up a
game against Serbia where they were down seventeen and had
to scratch and claw their way to victory an exciting fashion.
Noah Ego on the call, by the way, was brilliant
down the stretch and even nailed something that nobody was
bringing up. It was eight eight twenty four, and he
said at the end, I guess job not done. A
little nod to Kobe Bryant there. Pretty cool on that
day because they still got a gold medal game to play.
Speaker 2: But and do you know the significance of tomorrow's date,
because everyone's lost their mind kind of with Kobe numbers.
It's on eight ten twenty four and ten.
Speaker 3: Was his Olympic number.
Speaker 2: Olympic number which everyone of course remembers.
Speaker 3: Hey, he had a big fourth quarter apology guy against
I mean, there's an awesome movie with Jim Carrey. No,
I'm just kidding. He was great for them down the
stretch against Spain, where I may have been rooting for
Spain in eight against Team USA maybe just a little
bit in that ball game.
Speaker 2: Bro where what what is this this?
Speaker 3: I root for the underdogs. I like the Gassoul Brothers.
I like Fricky Rubio.
Speaker 2: You know what I like more the soil I'm standing on.
Speaker 3: Brother, there's some fracking going on with this. I can't.
I look. The only reason I'm.
Speaker 2: Doing this, Guys, that's a sick jersey, by the way
I do. If you're on the live stream, you have
to get this is genuinely one of the cooler jerseys
I think you can have is the batom France jersey.
We believe it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a batomb France jersey. And it's only because
man of my word. Sticking with what I said, if
he came back to the Clippers, I would root for
France even if they played Team USA. I didn't know
it would be a gold medal game. I didn't know
it'd end up like this. I thought it could be
an exhibition game. I thought maybe Germany, maybe who else.
Speaker 1: How did you think it would not be a gold
medal game?
Speaker 3: Because they could have met along the way. I didn't
know what bracket? Will they bracket them? They could have
been in the same bracket.
Speaker 1: Did you look at the bracket before making this decision?
Speaker 3: There was no bracket. This was back in June or
something when I said this may my god, what do
you want from me?
Speaker 2: What do we expect from Nico in this game? Because
that's I mean, I think the US winning will What
are you excited to see from Nico tomorrow? I mean
other than the no dip threes because we all love
those twelve eight and three. Ooh, mark it down, dude.
If Nico gets twelve eight and three, I cannot think
of a better way to head into the the kind
of preseason type stuff and that's eight blocks.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Buttombo's showing up.
Speaker 2: Okay, wait right down batoombo. Right now, do we have.
Speaker 3: We I've been saying that on the right over you Okay, great, Okay,
no Eagle has used batumbo.
Speaker 2: I mean.
Speaker 3: Block tomb Mount Batumbo, though, is tough.
Speaker 2: That's a good one, Adam. What do you expect from
Bajim other than twelve assists, eight blocks and three points.
Speaker 3: Well, if they're gonna win, he is gonna have to
not just do the little things. He's probably gonna have
to knock down four or five threes because Team USA
is gonna be well prepared and ready. They ain't come
this far just to lose to France.
Speaker 2: But or did they? Well, they all just they just
protest the game. There's like, we respect Miko so much.
Speaker 3: They know how good Wemby is, they know how good
go Bet can be when he's on the court and
actually being a plus out there. There's always a discrepancy
regarding that how much he really helps the team against
certain matchups. But I just I don't They looked a
little bit discombobulated early on against Serbia, who, granted was
red hot from the outside and some of those shots
were really well contested. There's nothing you can do about
that when Bogie is going off like.
Speaker 2: That, as we've seen well defended shots go in and
been on the wrong side of those before.
Speaker 3: Yeah, this was a heater that Serbia was on. In fact,
jo Kich ended up with less than twenty.
Speaker 2: Points, correct, and you go for six from three to two.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he had some bad looks in the second half.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's our year and about baby.
Speaker 3: I think that is as close as they will get
to losing a ball game, obviously in this tournament, big
down seventeen. They'll come out, play hard and probably put
their foot on the gas early against France and not
let it be as close as a game as we
saw leading up to it.
Speaker 2: Hey, maybe Tatum will even get some minutes. That'd be crazy.
We have to talk about it, dude. It's so funny
because it's like, just let them win the gold medal,
Like this is such a lie there.
Speaker 1: Look if they were losing, I think the critics is fair.
But it's like, dude, this isn't a vanity project for
Jason Tatum. Like they never said like you're gonna have
a leading role or anything. Didn't he miss like three
out of four of the days of the training.
Speaker 2: Game or whatever.
Speaker 1: It's like, I don't I can't talk about this anymore.
Speaker 2: I can't hear about it anymore. Do you think Kawhi
would have gotten similar?
Speaker 3: Hey, talk about that Sweet you put out there when
TBSA was that big, that Kawhi Sweet Chuck, because I
was kind of thinking about it, you know, you know
they could use right now in the periven I don't know.
Speaker 2: I mean Kawhi's game for for Foeba, I think translates well,
He's gigantic, he defends well, and he crushes it in
the mid range. So that seems kind of to be Foeba,
you know, adjacent.
Speaker 3: He doesn't shy away from the physicality that plays into
his hand. That's typically why he's been so good in
the playoffs. It's not like Kevin Durant has been bad.
But I do feel like Kawhi Leonard that physicality that
occurs in the playoffs and things change a little bit there,
and the way refs call it, that works for Kawhi.
We saw it against Phoenix in those first two games,
while Kevin Durant's more finesse on that side. And by
the way, like I don't want to we've talked about
it plenty. We'll just said it. But you know, then
making the decision to not bring Kawhi Leonard, well, Kevin
Durant doesn't play at all in the exhibition games. To me,
it does look more political now when I see the
commercial with Dion Sanders narrating a Kevin Durant Olympics commercial
and the fact that he was I didn't realize he
was about to be the all time leader scoring wise
coming into these Olympics. That's why he was never going
to be left off the team.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean that was the point I brought up.
I understand the Nike thing, and I think that that's
you know, fair. I of course it probably has played
some role, but like he has the history with Team USA, like,
of course that guy is going to get the spot,
like you know, like, why why would he not?
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's something everybody could celebrate. Ah, he's the
all time leading scorer women's Olympic basketball. It's Kevin Durant
with that title now, so you know, and he did
play well in the fourth quarter against Serbia.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah. We the clip of Mellow yelling at him
to just go with that guy was, I mean an
all time Team USA clips.
Speaker 3: And then Noah, the cross, the sauce, the splash on
the jumper.
Speaker 2: I like this. This question from x Mango Project Pat
Bev said, Kawhi works too hard and that's why he
gets injured. Are we worried about that? We've heard about
some of the off season stuff from Kahi, Like guys
who've gotten to work out with him in San Diego say,
it's like brutal, right, Like it's like heat West, you know,
it's like the Miami Heat West type stuff. Will How
do you feel about the idea that maybe training too
hard is something that could deteriorate Kawhi heading into this season.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a very real thing at this point.
I just think it's you know, like it's accumulated Miles.
I do think, you know, it's one of those things
that is the reason why he got to the place
that he has been, why he is the player that
he is. So it's kind of a double.
Speaker 2: Edged sword with that.
Speaker 1: I mean, he you know, clearly takes a lot of
pride in that preparation and that's what it takes for
him to be, you know, a top five, top ten player.
And like I said, you know, it's just it's city,
Miles at this point. You know, like I think that
he might as well just stick whatever is going to
make like is whatever is going to make him the
most comfortable. I don't know, like, yeah, maybe taking it
a little bit like twenty percent easier would probably be good,
of course, but it's you know, I don't know that
like reinventing the wheel is going to guarantee a different outcome.
I think if anything that could be that, you know,
that that could present its own issues and its own
problems for a guy who's you know, been very methodical
in his approach his entire life. Really, you know, it's
it's yeah, like I said, it's a double edged sword.
It takes that kind of preparation to be the type
of player that he is. Obviously he has a certain
type of personality that makes him in client to perform
that way. So yeah, I mean, I guess if he
could take it fifteen percent easier that that'd be great.
But at this point, you know, with that knee, like,
I gotta be real, man, the damage is done. Like
it's not you know, you're not wrong, It's not like,
you know, unless he underwent some sort of constructive surgery
that they opted to just not tell anybody about. You know,
it's the damage is done. It's it's really just trying
to mitigate that. And I think a big part of that,
I mean obviously overuse is an issue, but like him
actually feeling comfortable on that knee is going to be
the biggest thing, Like what is going to help him
alleviate pain? And if that's you know, being ready through
training at game speed, then that's just kind of what
we have to accept at this point.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I concur with pretty much everything will said there.
It's this is what has got him to this level.
To take away the maniacal ability, he has to practice
as hard as he does to be that methodical. And
by the way, he doesn't play five on five during
the summer, so he doesn't go quite as hard during
the grind of a regular season, maybe for that reason,
to hold something back because he doesn't want as much
tread off the tires. So I think Kawhi has been
going about it the right way. It's just been unfortunate injuries.
For instance, he usually starts the season off slow. He
kind of eases his way in. I thought Paul George,
I think we all did, was the better player the
first month of last season. Obviously kawhis not long after. Yeah,
And Kawhi just eases his way in and then clicks
in and takes over at some point but I don't
think it's overuse. I don't think it's anything like that
with what he's doing over the summer that's leading to
all these injuries. I think it's just you know, bad
injury luck, and he's had too many to his right
knee right now to where there's a higher level of concern,
understandably from everyone.
Speaker 2: He was working out for. You see, there was a
photo of him in the USC coach So it's like
he is workouts in, which is good.
Speaker 1: What's our you also like you have to be a
masochist to be that goody. It's it's just part of
the thing. I mean, like, you know, you can't congratulate
the Kobe thing and then like you know, like saying, oh,
but Kawhi, like shouldn't try as hard, Like I think
that's a pretty silly thing, Like to be that good,
to be one of the five best players in the league,
the best player in the league at times, like you're
a masochist, Like it's it's just a different level.
Speaker 2: You have sick thoughts.
Speaker 1: Sick thoughts prove me wrong.
Speaker 3: It's it would be weird to get to a point
where people are criticizing a player for practicing too much.
I don't want to go there.
Speaker 2: No, absolutely no, Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think you should
just start yoga. That's my only thing. If he's not
doing yoga, maybe just start doing.
Speaker 1: Oh he's definitely doing yoga.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 1: What was that yoga sol coal guy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's got yoga vibes.
Speaker 3: Whatever he was drinking that he called the goat juice
in Hawaii. I don't know if that was last year,
the year before. Maybe get back to some of that. Yeah,
it looked green, it looked healthy. It wasn't John a
juice golfing. Yeah, Paul was just an Palmer. Arnold Palmer
is the goat juice.
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, I think it's just Arnold Palmer.
Speaker 3: Well, it's not a bad drink either.
Speaker 2: I'm drinking of John Daily, which is an Arnold Palmer
with alcohol in it, currently on the happy hour stream.
Speaker 3: I figured that was just a long Island.
Speaker 2: Then no, Long Island is five different kinds of hard
alcohol and then a splash of coat.
Speaker 3: John Daly is not an Audios mother effort.
Speaker 2: No, those are so much worse. Yeah, I don't know.
I'm my confidence in Kawhi, like the tm us anything.
Obviously It's scary when anytime Kawhi gets sent home from
a playing environment. But I'm feeling pretty good, like we
we haven't seen anything. I don't care what Si Bayles says.
I just I just don't. But I'm feeling good where
we're at as of five nineteen pm on August ninth,
in Kauhi's ability to contribute to this not quite contending
Clippers team.
Speaker 3: I mean, I have questions. I have concerns. How can
you not be with Kawhi? I wonder how long was
it swollen. We're never going to find out that answer.
We're never gonna find out if there was a significant
procedure going on, because Laurence Frank clarified and made that
distinction at the press conference whether or not, you know
it was as serious of a procedure, and therefore if
that was the case, they'd have to report it, or
they would report it. Nothing's been reported. So if something
was done with Kawhi Leonard on that right knee to
get the swelling down, it was something less invasive, let's
say so. I but we're not gonna know. I think
until we get ten games into the regular season, are
they going all the way back to where he's never
playing a back to back this year. Most people have
guessed that at this point.
Speaker 2: I hope so I don't want him to play back
to him, there's no reason for Kawhi to play back
to backs this year if any guys are.
Speaker 1: Over the age of like twenty five, I gotta be honest,
I don't really see the point.
Speaker 3: Well, if anyone should be exempt from some of that
criticism because he has tried, it is not worked. He
has tried to power through it. Guys. He has tried
to beat the load management allegations and apparently it's not
good for his body. If anybody should be able to
get a little bit of leeway on that at this point,
it's Kawhi Leonard.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we talked about that. Like at this point right now,
could you blame Kawhi for taking some time off and
back to back like the man is hurt.
Speaker 3: It's not the allegations of he just doesn't love basketball,
he doesn't care enough. All that is garbage. It has
been proven at this point. It has nothing to do
with that he played almost seventy games this past season
and finally his right knee apparently hit the wall. Because
we also don't even know if there was a certain
tweak on the court that did it against Charlotte on
March thirty first, or if it was just an accumulation,
a build up of all the wear and tear over
the course of a season where he was as driven
and locked in and dialed in as we've really ever
seen him. Remember all the postgame pressers where he would say,
I'm trying to take this team to a place they'd
never been. That's what Kawhi Leonard was on this year.
You know, Matt Moore and I got into a debate
recently regarding his leadership versus Paul George Show. I well, so,
Clippers Talk has been a podcast for some time, for
like seven years. I just started up a YouTube account
for it. It's still that follow out of Bay for now.
If you want to check it out, It's Clippers Talk,
but with a visual there. It's a vodcast. But you know,
the leadership? Is that what they call it?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Is that something that was called? Was that ten years ago?
They called it that?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: Did I miss the vote?
Speaker 2: Podcast? Dude?
Speaker 3: A visual repation, A visual representation of a podcast. You
could see us just like you do here and it's
a good time. But you know, Kawhi's leadership I felt
was pretty strong in this past year. I felt he
was more vocal than we had seen in his Clippers
tenures so far.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's fair. And now he gets to
kind of we're going to talk about James Harden taking
some of the young guys Jerico Hines, which I thought
was a cool kind of older vet move in a bit.
But I do want to get to this hilarious question
from Ghost who says I haven't been on social media
in a few weeks. First of all, good for you, Ghost,
keep not being on social media and your wife will
probably be better. Is it true we're trading for Ben Simmons. No,
it is not true. I don't know where you saw that,
but I cannot imagine a move that would make it
would divide Clippers Nation more than trading for Ben Simmons. Okay, well,
bullets and PJ Ben Simms then maybe signed me up.
But I don't think we're trading a flyer, dude, and
it would be it would be a flyer, uh.
Speaker 3: For him or Robert Williams like we talked about last week.
You know, I'm okay with those guys moving for someone
like that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd rather have Robert Williams.
Speaker 3: You wouldn't rather have PJ. Tucker.
Speaker 2: I'd rather have a broken Fax machine than PJ Tucker
on this team. Fast Uh shar Celicio uh said, do
we need Norms scoring in the starting lineup? Which is
a question we're gonna get asked.
Speaker 1: I think a lot that's an interesting question with Terrence Man,
Derek Jones Junior and a.
Speaker 2: Vitza zu Bots.
Speaker 1: You know, we've all talked about how I think a
lot of this is really going to depend on how
Zoo is featured in the offense, because I'm expecting the
offense to to have a little bit of a different
look this year. Uh, like we saw at times last year,
and certainly like with Harden running the show.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: There there is you know, a bigger opportunity for Zoo
if they kind of fall back into their old ways
and he's forgotten about iced out.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 1: I do think that that is that that could be
a real possibility, uh, unless you see some sort of
massive offensive development from either Derrek Jones Junior or or
or Terrence. But I think like the what seems like
the most realistic answer. Likely answer is is having zoo
uh fill a bigger role on the offensive end. I
just I you know, I'm ready to see it. I
just don't know if that's where we're at.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's tightly ready to do it. Is the thing.
My thing with Norm Norman James Harden as you're starting
backcourt is maybe the worst defensive starting backcourt in the
league or close to it, right, like Norm, that's not
that's a lot of work to ask. What I'm assuming
would be Derek Jones Junior at the three, Kui at
the four at the five. Like having two. I love
what they do offensively, and Harden is a better defender
than Norm. Norm is good in space kind of is
a free safety, but like on ball perimeter defensive for
those two guys are in the back court. I I
know we have a defensive mindset, but I'd like that
defensive mindset more. If it's hardening Terrence first putting that
much pressure on Derek Jones Junior two to be like,
you gotta you gotta make up for both of these
guys ahead of you positioning.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just if two of the five guys starting
are negative defenders, can are negatives. Can you even have
a defensive mindset? I don't care how good the other
three guys are. If your point of it's.
Speaker 1: It's a mindset at them. It's not necessarily a practice,
it's a it's a mindset, just like gymnastics.
Speaker 2: Just like Olympic gymnastics is eighty five percent mental. You
just got to commit. It's the same as basketball. It's
the same as defense in NBA basketball.
Speaker 3: It's I just I don't know if it's going to
cross their bne to play defense. If there's two guys
like that on the perimeter to start every game. We
want to see them come out with some identity and
form it early on because I think that's the only
way they're going to be able to survive this season.
There can't be this moving target of who we are
as a team like we've seen over the past couple
of years. Maybe Paul George contributed to some of that,
but I still think this Clippers team is best served
leaning into defense and then hoping when James Harden and
Kawhi Leonard are both available, you can still be around
a top ten offense no matter who is next to
those guys because of how talented they are.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good call. And Norm on the bench too, Like,
so if Norm's starting, who's scoring off that bench? Because
Chris Dunn is the backup point guard.
Speaker 1: And he's not, I think it would mean Kevin Porter
Junior probably has a larger role.
Speaker 2: Tru the Laquipper subreddit seems to think that Kevin Porter
Junior is going to play thirty minutes a night.
Speaker 1: I am surprised. Like I'm looking at ESPN's death chart
and they have him third up in the death chart
at guard, which I'm just I mean, look, I would
I don't know. I don't know how that's gonna go.
Speaker 2: I think that makes sense. They sign Chris don to
a bigger deal. He's played NBA basketball more sooner frequently.
I don't know. But we will see, because the talent,
we'll see.
Speaker 3: We wait, We have to wait for the investigation. Here, guys,
not not you guys, the guys on reddit.
Speaker 2: Yeah that's true.
Speaker 1: Okay, I've got on my investigation. I've sent in my findings.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they always keep coming back. Anytime I send him in,
they keep coming back. Miles Johnson, listen, listen. Miles Johnson
with a uh, down the road question, if we don't
make the play in, what happened? And what do you
think the Clippers offseason would look like? The Clippers don't
make the play in one May, one or two major
contributors missed at least twenty five games, is my guess.
And we didn't get a jump from Terrence Man. We
didn't get a commitment to zoom or on the offense,
you know what I mean. Like, I think kind of
a lot of things have to go wrong to not
make the play in the play in as a whole.
Speaker 1: So finishing like we're saying, not lose and make it
into the playoffs, you're saying finish eleven.
Speaker 2: Finish in the play in is what I'm taking this
question as.
Speaker 1: Oh, I think we could very well finish in the plan.
I would be much more surprised at the alternative of
finishing eleventh. And then, Yeah, I think for sure it's
like you said.
Speaker 2: Kawhi, bad things have happened.
Speaker 1: Kawhi doesn't look like himself when he does play and
plays you know, I don't know fifty.
Speaker 2: Yeah games, Terrence doesn't take the job. Like I think,
a lot of things which is good in this hypothetic,
Like a lot of things have to go wrong for
the Clippers to not make them plan Adam your thoughts.
Speaker 3: I agree with you. Overall, it probably means, yes, Kawhi
is missing thirty plus games.
Speaker 2: Harden's probably missing some time too. In this scenario, I.
Speaker 3: Think Harden's out for twenty plus games. But also I
know we do this every year, but this is the
year where it looks more formidable in the West than
any I've seen the while. We've talked about it, but
how many of these teams are actually getting worse? If
you want to identify a team that's noticeably should be
getting worse, most would probably point to the Clippers because
they lost Paul George Yea like, okay, Seeds not getting worse. Okay,
maybe they're not going to be the one seed, but
I would take them to win it.
Speaker 2: Again exactly nothing.
Speaker 3: Denver Nuggets aren't going to get significant worse.
Speaker 2: I'm worried about Jamal.
Speaker 3: Because he wouldn't get to SGA.
Speaker 2: I think is I think his Okay, I like, and
I mean this like it sucks, like I think he's
he's lost something from that injury.
Speaker 3: That could be the case, but I still would have
them top five. A bum now so he's been exposed
to the world.
Speaker 2: Has even beat Team USA.
Speaker 3: He had Bogey. What else do you want? Man get
him some help. But the Pelicans could be better. They
could get a healthier season from Zion Phoenix with their
Big three. I would think is gonna gell a little
bit better. Dallas isn't gonna be significantly worse. Sacramento can
get better. Obviously they have DeMar DeRozan. Now Golden State
could be maybe they're around the same. But then you
have Houston, you have Utah that's sticking with market and
he's not going anywhere. And the Memphis Grizzlies worthy two
seed just to Cason removed from being the two seed
and now they're getting healthy again and Joss coming back,
and San Antonio is definitely gonna be better. Outside the
Portland trail Blazers, there just aren't many walkovers, so they
could be in a battle if things don't go well. Sure,
just trying to get into the plane to point the question.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's well, there's also like there's more qui I mean,
there's obviously more question marks this year on top of
the normal question marks. That's the biggest question mark being
Kawaisu have they. Oh, here we go. We're gonna take
actually a quick audio break, real quick, and then we're
gonna come back. This is strictly for audio. If you
missed the the live hang we're gonna put this out
on audio. Everyone in the chat, thank you for hanging out.
Always a good time. We're gonna come back in three
to two one on audio. All right, we're back in. Hey,
how's it going. We're hanging out here on a live
stream if you're if you're not watching, we're over at
YouTube dot com slash at Clippers podcast. We're not streaming
on Twitter anymore. Uh not not our choice. That wasn't
Uh that came that came down from above us. But
anyways for Shizzle, but Dizzel wants to know have they
given up on trading Bones until the All Star break?
Could we see Bones at one and done at two
off the bench starting next year. I'm gonna start with
the second part of this question, and I think that
that's a no. I don't think there's any way that
Bones has in the off season vaulted to be one
of the you know, first two guards off the bench.
Did you see what the ball don't stop pro am
did did. I did.
Speaker 1: I saw the highlights.
Speaker 2: I liked it. I just don't.
Speaker 1: I am still struggling to see him having a future
with this team, even if he is on the roster.
Speaker 2: I would be I would be shocked. I would be shocked.
He's not running, he's not running the backup offense. I
love this guy. I wish I you know, I used
to be a skeleton keyholder, got a new key chain.
But I don't. I just don't. I don't see it happening,
which sucks. He should have been. There's a lot of
things to talk. Once Bones is off the team, we
can really get into how the Clippers kind of completely
mismanaged having a young guy who was second team All Rookie.
That's not for now, but.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean second team All Rookie. That's just that's
not that's nothing.
Speaker 2: There's potential, but there's he's the best young guy the
Clippers have had, Like they had never had a rookie
who was that at least competent of basketball.
Speaker 3: I would have felt better about him being the backup
point guard over Russell Westbrook last year exactly.
Speaker 1: But that's all that we all talked about that. But
you know, if if if IF's and butts were candies
and nuts or.
Speaker 2: Whatever, then every day would be Christmas. Adam, what do
you think you're you carved with the skeleton key? As
far as I'm concerned.
Speaker 3: Well, I don't want to talk too many hypotheticals. Apparently
have some bus but uh, trading bones until all start.
Like Chris Dunn does open up some possibilities because he
can play the two. Yeah, he doesn't have to have
the ball in his hands. He can be a backup
Patrick Beverly type of guy. If he's seventy five percent
of what Patrick Beverly was in his Clippers career and
he's coming off the bench and help solidifying and keeping
that you know, transition of I guess a line shift
from the starters to the backups and holding on to
that identity of being a defensive ball club. That would
be huge. Just Chris Donne being a leader there.
Speaker 2: Funny story, he played twenty eight percent of his minutes
at shooting guard last year, the third highest of his career.
So that that is there. But I think the bones
question is the biggest part of the bones. The bones
issue is the biggest part of this.
Speaker 3: Do you think they can realistically get back two seconds
right now for Bones with the question, I think because
if they could, he'd probably be out by now.
Speaker 1: No, I think, I know. I think that he's become
like the one second that you would get in exchange
for taking on the PJ. Tucker contract. Who's kind of
where he's at right now.
Speaker 3: So then is it gonna be an issue of are
we better just not having them in camp? Are we
better just not having guys who are going to be
limited with their playing time going into the season and
the vibes aren't gonna be there in Hawaii if they're
on the team, maybe.
Speaker 1: That's the bigger thing, like are they going to be
malcontens because that it seems like that was honestly the
bigger issue before was that there's I mean, it just
seems like with Bones especially, I mean I don't think
that there's doubt necessarily of the talent level. It just
seems like interpersonally, there's something going on there that's not
It's like it's not jiving with the powers that be.
Speaker 2: And Bones hasn't been consistent. He's made like forty three percent.
Speaker 1: Well, like I said, I mean, I do think that,
like I think that, like I think that whatever it
is that's going on, because I can't you know, I
don't know. I don't have any like in like interior
knowledge of the follow bones right, yeah, of course, uh
you know around stocking around, but you know, like whatever
that is, like whatever that like what seemingly is like
a personal or personality uh clash going on there. It
does seem to be affecting his production.
Speaker 2: On the court. Yeah, I mean he's a thirty nine
point eight percent shooter in his time in the pros.
Speaker 3: How many threes those he take? Like his field goal
percentage shot distribution, it probably leans pretty heavy on a
lot of those shots are threes.
Speaker 2: Right, Yes, he is a thirty six point shooter.
Speaker 3: So right about league average. Yeah, but he's taking like
he's taking them off the balance, he's taking them from distance.
Speaker 2: Sure thing, you should make those shots.
Speaker 3: I just don'tus when you see a guy sporadically who
didn't play for almost two months and then he gets
time on the court, I just don't know how you could.
Speaker 2: Possibly that part. I agree with that. The Hurricanes they
see him every day.
Speaker 3: Though, I I guess it's I don't know. I think
it's different in game than an NBA game that in practice. Now,
has he done his own things to hurt his own cause? Yeah,
because when he was getting into the game in garbage
time late, it didn't look like Bones was taking it
as seriously as he should be. It looked like he
was sulking at times. He has to take advantage of
whatever minutes he gets, just because he came into the
season and everybody said he was going to be the backup,
and he had that job secured before they brought in
James Harden. Doesn't mean all of a sudden when he's
lower on the totem pole, that he's in a position
right now, this early in his career where he can
look like at times people were saying he was pouting
out there.
Speaker 1: Well, there was the same thing coming out of Denver.
I mean like that, like that's why he left. He
got like he was getting less playing time there, and
obviously there were you know, there were more guys ahead
of him, but it you know, from the knowledge that
we had, uh, it seemed like that that relationship is
what really went south, even more so than the you know,
like then than the on court stuff.
Speaker 3: I think it's fair to say that there's criticism on
the Clippers for how they have used Bones or some
young players, and also say some of this is on
Bones too.
Speaker 2: Do you think it?
Speaker 1: Do you think they've misused him as poorly as they
misused Russ.
Speaker 3: That's an interesting question. Hell yeah, you tell me Will's.
Speaker 2: You know, Russ just into the ball board, dude, you
know you put him out and you just let him
do his thing, all right.
Speaker 1: We know he can't shoot threes, he can't finish around
the rim, like you gotta, you gotta really tailor the
game for us, you know, if you want him to succeed,
unless you want him to fail.
Speaker 3: And this is this is what's interesting though. You look
at his catch and shoot numbers, like Bones does have
an NBA skill set that can be useful. Right now,
I don't know if it was useful. Maybe the expectations
were too high for the Clippers or trying to win
a championship, and they felt like Russ is the veteran
he obviously is going to get, you know, more chances
to fail than Bones Highland, a.
Speaker 2: Veteran who has so much class, especially in that specific
locker room. I think you know you mentioned a good
point at him with like you know he was on
a Clipper team that's trying to win a championship. He's
been on two teams that have championship aspirations that kind
of don't have time yeah too, which sucks for him.
But like you look at it's similar to Brandon Boston, right,
who just got signed by the Spurs. That's a perfect
team for Brandon Boston to go to and probably Bones Highland, right, Like,
you go to a team that has incredibly little expectations,
who has the you know, a guy who's going to
probably dominate the league at some point for like ten years,
you have a great coach, Like that's where a player
like Bones needs to be.
Speaker 3: I wonder if the fact that he almost defeated himself
in some ways last season with his attitude, if that
had not happened, would he be getting a shot right
now with the Clippers either. I think he heard his
own cast because now a space has actually kind of
opened up for him. But maybe they've already given up
on what he can offer because of off the court
and even all in the court on.
Speaker 2: The practice court. Yeah, well, because it's like it's a
team of vets, right, So these are guys who don't
have time for the bullshit.
Speaker 3: And if you're not gonna play hard just because it's
garbage time, that's that's just a really bad look. That
almost looks like some entitlement.
Speaker 1: Especially on a yeah, especially on a vet laden team,
and especially you know, we just opened this show talking
about like Kawhi's approach to the work and his mentality.
I mean, like you know what I mean, Like you
see the everyone around you, and like what you know,
what the preparation and what they're doing to go in,
and like, I don't know, to think that you're gonna
like waltz into a role or be granted something. I
understand the disappointment, but like you know, like just even
as a business move, you got to think that like
James Harden, coming in, while it cuts away from your
playing time, is ultimately better for you. Like where you playing,
you playing minutes of meaningful basketball later in the season,
I guess, is what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: And also, like be a contributing guy on a team
that goes far, that's also really good for your own business, right,
Like you help a Clippers team when they need it,
you know, kind of play well in your spots. That's
the thing. Other teams like when you can get up
to a new contract. And also things change. Troy Aikman
wrote a children's book called Things Change, and that was
for children, and in professional basketball things change. You bring
in James Harden, Yeah, dude, you're playing time is probably
gonna go down. Now. Why this isn't rocket side.
Speaker 3: And as much as you can understand a guy feeling
like his job was taken for him from him for
no other reason than, you know, all of a sudden
his numbers game because he did play really well early
on the season. He was averaging I think sixteen points
per game his first five games or something like that.
But he probably felt like he was doing his job
and then it was taken from him. It just doesn't
matter when you're that young. Like, you have to take
advantage of whatever time you're given, whether it's practice, court time,
whether it's garbage time, Layton ball games.
Speaker 1: Terrence Man got kicked out of the starting lineup despite
the team being better with him as a starter, Okay,
and like, and he came back all right, Like, and
that's the guy you should be paying attention to. You're
not James Harden. You're not even Russell Westbrook not saying
anything skill wise, but like you know, like people have
a reputation, people have on a vent laden team, people
are gonna get opportunities. But like, that's the guy you
should be modeling. After he fought for his spotback. He
earned that spotback, and like, you know, I guess I
would have liked to have seen a little bit more.
And I think we were all a lot higher on
bones coming into last season and through periods of last season,
and now I guess I feel a lot a lot
different about this that you well. An x Bogo brings
up a good part point.
Speaker 2: It seems like his vet was Tucker or it seems
like maybe he was, like that's difficult to watch a
guy who's like, I'm gonna complain to every newspaper possible.
Speaker 3: Right, that's part of my frustration.
Speaker 1: But use a different vet.
Speaker 3: But you know what the problem also is with that,
and there's criticism to go around. It's not all the Clippers,
it's not all bones. It's hard to sort through it all.
But PJ. Tucker did get rewarded after complaining. He did,
he got more playing time. It almost like he bullied
his way back onto the court. That to me just
doesn't set the right example, to Bones, who's looking up
to that guy as his vet. Yeah, I didn't like that.
I obviously nobody, nobody was asking for starting game this
one game.
Speaker 2: I didn't see anyone on Glipper's Twitter saying, well, now
we might have a shout here.
Speaker 3: I would say that was curious. That a surprising move.
It to reward a guy who was outwardly complaining and
causing off the court issues.
Speaker 2: Maybe before we get to this FK retro question, he's
asked it twice, we should answer it. But maybe this
was not rewarding PJ. Tucker. Maybe this was Tyler being like,
you want to play, dude, you want to play, dude. Play,
Let's see how this works. Go play well.
Speaker 1: I do think that.
Speaker 2: Series was lost, not not you know, but like you can't.
Speaker 1: Put it on him. But I do think that Tye
also is a guy who, you know, will let guys
kind of prove their own faults or like make their
own and he has to and and at times he
has to, and I think sometimes we've seen him be like,
especially with the Marks Moore situation, a little too lenient
in that regard, but like when something is clear, like
it's got to be clear even the player, like, hey,
you're getting the opportunity, you're getting the minutes. This is
what we're receiving. Like what you know, what what do
you expect? You think that this is gonna go now,
Like we're gonna give you even more, Like what what
do you want?
Speaker 3: With PJ? It was just so unique to me because
they gave him minutes early on when he first got there.
It didn't work. Then he can plain.
Speaker 1: More they needed more like it, like I kind of
got you know, I kind of got.
Speaker 3: It, like needing a wing and a guy who's thirty
seven or thirty eight though and looking like that are
just like I would rather play a mere coffee more.
There there have to be other options than PJ. Tucker
starting in a game where people say the season, the
season was over, it was looking bleak. It's still a
must win Game six where if you win that game,
you get a Game seven at home. Again.
Speaker 2: In the first round, he outscored Paul George in the
second half. Okay, getting to this FK Retro question, which
I don't fully understand, is it just the most important
part of the season being better than Houston? So we
keep our pick this year the Clippers. Is this swap?
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Is this I don't think we have a pick.
Speaker 3: I've heard this from La Murray. I should have looked
it up, but it does sound like they.
Speaker 2: Go, sorry, okay, I'm gonna read what I'm looking at
and y'all follow it.
Speaker 1: Or I've seen a lot of balloons. I'm taking that
as good news.
Speaker 2: Oh no, a balloons. I don't know if it's good.
Speaker 1: There's been a bunch of balloons.
Speaker 2: I can't control the balloons. I think we've established that
on this podcast.
Speaker 3: They keep like five first round picks. How many?
Speaker 1: Is it?
Speaker 2: Okay, see has the right to swap It's twenty twenty
five first round pick for Houston's twenty twenty five first
round pick protected for selections one through ten, or the
clippers twenty twenty five first round.
Speaker 3: Pick, so they're only able to swap one of them. Yeah,
they're gonna do it for whoever finishes lower between the
Clippers in Houston.
Speaker 2: But Houston's protected one through ten. Interesting, there you go.
Speaker 3: It does seem it does seem good. It does seem
important to be better than Houston.
Speaker 1: Yes, points a great point to point out fkt's Yeah,
thank you, the seasons will win. If we finished better
than Houston.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what, it's also a loss if we don't.
I think we can put that. I think we can
all put that line in the sand and know what's
side to be on it.
Speaker 3: That is, that is kind of a team that you're
expecting to make a jump and could be fighting for
position in the standings all season long with the Clippers. Honestly,
I wouldn't be surprised by that.
Speaker 2: It will be interesting to see where we stack up
with the youth teams kind of who should be taking
some kind of jump.
Speaker 3: They had a tough victory in Houston late last year
where Kawhi took over against Jabari Smith a little bit.
It was a fun game and Houston plays one.
Speaker 2: Lord, yeah they got I mean it's gonna be I like,
f Houston could be pretty damn good.
Speaker 3: There's a lot or they could trade Jalen Green, maybe
sche Gooon, Like they have a lot of moving parts.
I think, oh yeah, they were kind.
Speaker 2: Of talking about maybe trading Seinggoon, which seems insane, right if,
Like I don't watch a bunch of them, I don't
think that's real. Yeah, that would make sense. Because he
is very good at basketball professional basketball.
Speaker 3: They're kind of in that place where they have to
decide which direction they're going with star wise, I guess
eat both.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: They're probably dealing with well, we don't know who plays
well enough with one another. Because we have so many
young guys, they're gonna be tough, tough.
Speaker 2: Yes, how do we feel We may see if there's
any other questions in here? I want to talk. There's
no footage yet from this. Oh, actually, we're gonna take
a quick audio break. Sorry, podcast listeners. We gotta take
a quick break and then we'll be back at break
at what are we at forty six is we'll be
back to talk James Harden being the best veteran leader
we all expect him to be. ATHLETs, ads and three
to two.
Speaker 3: One welcome back in It's season three. It is a
live episode for you here on the YouTube side of
clips and different side. It's some called a podcast. I
don't want to split hairs here at semantics, but uh,
Chuck Bockler will Updyke and all three of us will
be at the ind to it don't coming up this
weekend for the first time. It's gonna be a lot
of fun. We'll bring you some content from that. James
Harden the best veteran leader on the Clippers team.
Speaker 2: He might be. He took Uh Derek Jones, Junior, Jordan Miller,
Cam Christy, Kobe Brown, and Elijah Harkless to the Rico
Ja Rico Hines Run, which, if you're familiar with Los
Angeles basketball, is a pillar of off season runs for pros,
semi pros, and people who play it levels of basketball.
No one else can. I love this move. I want
the footage to come out. But this is an awesome
move by James Harden. And you know, because James Harden
is very much an LA guy, Like he's helping these
you know what I mean, Like, I think those guys
could go to this run without James Harden, but James
Harden seemingly I like the idea of him getting everyone
together and getting him into this run.
Speaker 3: Are we in agreement that, as opposed to Paul George,
James Harden clearly wanted to stay in LA because he
likely could have gotten more than two year seventy million
somewhere else.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he loves giving up money, it seems.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think he definitely wanted to stay in LA.
I don't know how much more he could.
Speaker 2: Have gotten, Like would it have been like Utah.
Speaker 1: Three for one twenty Like. I don't think there was
like a huge amount of offers out there.
Speaker 3: I guessed he was gonna end up with three years
two plus one from the Clippers for about one tennis.
That was my guess going in. Now, he can still
opt out after this year, and he can get that
year back eventually, but I was I'm still a little
bit surprised by that contract. Obviously, that is a bargain
in some ways.
Speaker 1: But you do raise valid point. I do think that
he was ready to kind of stop jumping around time
to settle down.
Speaker 2: The strip clubs are worse in LA. The strip clubs
aren't markedly worse than any other city he's played in
or seems to living, because doesn't even mostly live in Houston.
Speaker 1: They're not worse than Brooklyn. That's insane, Philadelphia, that's insane.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, what in what ways? What's the difference?
I don't know.
Speaker 2: Well, the strip clubs here close, right, and it's just
different culturally. I mean, he spends most of his time
in Houston. But I want this footage to because it's
also like it's awesome for Cam Christy to be out
there getting like because the Rico Heines runs are not bullshit,
you play like these of have to look up the
rules again, Like the Rico Heines rules are crazy, Like
it's like you're running your ass off. Four point shot,
four point shots, six point shot. No, I'm gonna look
at it right now. But I love Yeah. I think
he just wants to be here. I think he wants
to actually make something happen for an l A team
that's saying that as of August ninth.
Speaker 3: This this was his final destination Basketball City. This is
where he always wanted to end up.
Speaker 2: That's well, maybe not his final destiny Basketball Yeah, Basketball City, sure,
but I'm excited by this. This is like I hope
a Mere Coffee is there too, and maybe he just
wasn't in the picture. I want every Clipper to be
at the Rico Heines runs.
Speaker 3: Kind of worry about how a Mere is feeling right now.
To be honest, what do you mean he's kind of
been he's kind of been the overlooked guy this offseason.
How does he fit in with if they're trying to
bring in some of these youth guys. Jordan Miller like
he could be the odd man out in some ways,
and he had a really rough playoff series.
Speaker 2: Do you think Jordan Miller could challenge a mirror for
those minutes? A lot of people want him to think,
I because, like again the expectations, Ty always wants to win, obviously,
but this is not a championship. Other than the fact
that this is totally our year. This is not the
Clippers year.
Speaker 3: It's not what Will said.
Speaker 1: How Dar, you can't forget that this is I mean,
if it was ever gonna.
Speaker 3: Happen, Yeah, tell them, tell them.
Speaker 1: Just woke up this morning with the feeling like.
Speaker 2: This is our year, this is the year. I don't know,
I think, I hope. I really want Jordan Miller to
get a shot. I don't really and I mean the
shot at what just spot minutes like I'm not fuck,
he's not fucking second string like I wanted. Maybe some
of mere minutes like I don't. And this is this
is my opinion. This is not the opinion of Clips
and Dip as a whole. Obviously full disclaimer. I don't
care about G League stats if they're very if you're
like killing it in the G League, I'm like sick.
If you're really bad in the G League, I'm like,
well that doesn't seem good. But if you're just like
crushing it, I'm like awesome. A lot of guys have
done this, no disrespect. It's much different basketball than you're
playing up in for the NBA club. I think Jordan
Miller could have productive NBA minutes. We saw him do
some stuff in Summer League where it was like, oh.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, so you don't trust the G League scoring.
But a show like a Summer League showing is he's
ready for more than league.
Speaker 2: I think it's he's ready for him to challenge a
mere coffee, is what I'm saying. He's not ready to
bear penciled in, but he's ready to challenge a mere coffee.
I think it's all carried over.
Speaker 3: I did wonder what whether the G League or Summer
League is more competitive brand of basketball, more organized basketball.
I would imagine the G league's more organized, like you're
seeing play with league.
Speaker 1: As a season.
Speaker 3: Yeah sure, but the Summer League is guys from Europe
trying to make a team, young weird pros, young rookies
and old pros. But it's this mixed Michael Bis of guys.
Speaker 2: But I but what he did in those games, how
he was scoring, he wasn't like he wasn't just ISO
putting up twenty five points and like killing a guy
off the dribble, which is obviously not going to happen
in Yeah, x Man goes on it, Thank you x Man. No,
he just did things that looked like they would translate
to the few opportunities he would get when he gets
first team time with the Clippers.
Speaker 3: I think if he shows out in training camp, he
has a shot.
Speaker 2: Honestly, by the way, preseason basketball wait, now, I'm so honestly,
if Miller secures a spot, it's looking like are he.
Speaker 1: So?
Speaker 2: There's Summer League, there is G League, and there's also
like preseason games? Is preseason games in between? Like, where
does that rank?
Speaker 1: Preseason is below the summer league?
Speaker 2: Maybe it's the third low, it's the very bottom, because
that's kind of where I'm thinking. Is that that's that's correct?
Speaker 1: No, No, it just depends on that. It just depends
because I feel like preseason games are such a crapshoot
as to like who's actually playing right.
Speaker 2: I've seen with summer right.
Speaker 3: It's probably honestly above both though just in very small
segments where all of a sudden, Kawhi gives you five
minutes in the preseason game like we have seen chat chat.
Speaker 1: What do you think rank for US, rank for US? UH,
Summer league, G League preseason?
Speaker 2: Is the coaching different too in preseason?
Speaker 3: And then throw in UH the n season tournament where that.
Speaker 2: Yes, please do that too? Looking what are your? What
are our? Because you know how I feel about Jordan Miller,
I think you could challenge for some spot minutes. That's
where I'm at with Jordan Miller.
Speaker 3: I think you're right with.
Speaker 2: And then from there, you know most of good player
in the league.
Speaker 3: The decisiveness that you were speaking to with not playing
with his food like we saw too much from Ben
and Boston Junior, which is not going to happen much
at the NBA level. You have to go out there
and make people decisions. He did and I'm heard it
for him, Bill.
Speaker 2: But will Is Now, I love young Chuckers. Guy.
Speaker 1: Look, buddy, that's how you make it your year.
Speaker 3: The gravity of Wemby is going to help out Brandon
Boston Junior so much. He's going to see so many
open looks.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, for sure.
Speaker 3: I just like the thing that I think translates most
is what you were talking about, Chuck. This quick decision
making from Brandon from excuse me, Jordan Miller with him
getting downhill getting to the basket or just putting him
up from the outside on catching shoots and not wasting
movement and not being out there trying to do too much,
which is what you often see from young guys who
try to get into their bag.
Speaker 2: Yes, that is a good call, and I like what
Xmongo put in here. He added some stuff he's got,
like that little eurostep. He's also left handed, which you
know I'm biased about. I don't know. I like his
chances of getting time over Kobe Brown's, and I never
thought I would say that. Y'all know how I feel
about Kobe Brown.
Speaker 3: I think he's an easier fit in some ways than
Kobe Brown, even though they have a need at the four.
I don't know if Kobe Brown is close to being
ready for that because he just doesn't have one skill
set that really stands out that can translate to the
NBA level, where Jordan Miller it feels like he can
already do three things that a wing, that's what you
need out of a wing, even at the age of
twenty four, and him growing into a role. If his
shooting is anywhere close to league average, I have wondered
whether or not he was just on a heater in
Summer League. He had a great game one, and therefore
his confidence was here all six games or whatever it was.
And maybe it's too small to sample size, because in
the G League in twenty five games or whatever it was,
I think he shot thirty one percent from the outside.
So who is he as a shooter? Really? I'm not
sure I would lean towards he's closer to thirty percent
than forty percent.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would lean towards that too. But would he
be closer to forty four percent from the corner like
you thought John Wall would be when he signed for
the Clippers.
Speaker 3: I thought, I said, yeah, over thirty eight percent.
Speaker 1: I believe the floor was thirty nine percent.
Speaker 2: X Bogo brings up a good thing. Kobe fouls a lot,
and the reason he fouls a lot he is slow
on the perimeter on defense. His foot speed is not
that That's like the biggest thing for me that's going
to prevent Kobe from the minutes that maybe Jordan Miller
could get this year.
Speaker 3: If he can't guard, he can't shoot, and he can't
rebound with that size at a high enough level. Vibes
he's a good connection. That is the one thing that
he has shown. He could get some hockey assists out there,
for sure. I want to see more. I'm not out
on Kobe Brown, like he doesn't have a chance to
succeed at this level. I just think it's obvious right
now that Jordan Miller's a little bit further ahead.
Speaker 2: Which, yeah, it's good to see. It's a I mean,
a young guy who could make something happen. Now. I'm
just worried about a mirror though, didn't mean to bring
it up.
Speaker 3: Well, I just we don't. I think he's the odd
man out right now in some ways. I mean, he
was traded last year. There was a trade with a
mirror Coffee being involved at one point when they thought
they had Malcolm Brogan and then Marcus Morris was off.
Speaker 1: The team, thankfully sliding doors moment. Good thing that didn't
end up happening.
Speaker 2: Dude, that's crazy, Yeah, that was that would have been bad.
Someone's asking the restream chat is broken, Restream, no disrespect.
You've been fucking up for yea.
Speaker 1: Restream has been sucking up lately.
Speaker 2: Some of the chats asking what do you guys think
about the NBA Christmas Day schedule? I hate Christmas Day games? Crap.
I like them for my team, I hate them.
Speaker 3: I don't like him EI there because I'd rather not
have to work on Christmas. I wouldn't complain because it
is kind of fun too. You feel like you're on
a higher You're you're on a spotlight. There's the stage
is a little bit higher, because that's kind of the.
Speaker 2: Like double the amount of games.
Speaker 1: It's just it's not the same as it like Christmas Day,
NBA is not the same as it once was.
Speaker 3: Agreed has undercut.
Speaker 2: I'm fuked. I'd rather watch the Texans no like I
mean yeah, like yaas tweeted like, oh no Christmas Day
game and you're like, dude, just be with your family
on Christmas. Who gives a shit about it?
Speaker 1: So you sucked the bucks.
Speaker 2: Suck you suck. Don't suck. You'll get a game. That's
also a good outlook too, Don't suck and you'll probably
get it. Suck.
Speaker 3: We didn't get a game, so you guys aren't scored
at all because there's no Philadelphia versus Clippers game, Paul
George game on Christmas Day.
Speaker 2: No, I don't want it because the Sixers would probably
beat the Clippers.
Speaker 1: No, I've already told you what I want to happen.
Paul George returns to into it with the day that
we retire Chrisma and Blake Griffins.
Speaker 3: Dude, that is the best idea.
Speaker 2: Cheat. Let us know what you think of that. No
One no one rank Summer League, G League and preseason.
But we know that y'all have thoughts about dude, that
would be chef's that would just be wonderful. Hey, PG,
we're gonna have you back. We got a forty five
second tribute video because we gotta fit in Blake and
CP three Serisy retirement, and you're gonna get booed. I'm
gonna boo from the media section. No, I won't do that.
I don't even know if I'm invited in the media section,
but I won't be booming.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, so he feels at home?
Speaker 3: Is this because the B team comment? Where's all this
animosity coming towards Paul George regardless.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's not that regardless comment. Yeah me, it
was definitely coming regardless. I forgot that he even said
that I was going stupid ship. It's hard to keep
track of.
Speaker 2: I was a smoldering trash fire. Uh. And now just
that he's gone and yeah, no, he's get him out
of here. Someone asked up in the chat, when we're
getting the the Terrence and Zoo.
Speaker 3: Contracts down, when do we tell what time is it?
Speaker 2: I think at six thirty third it's gonna be. I
think they're just waiting.
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, I think they're waiting to see I
mean I.
Speaker 2: Adams, I just noticed Adam's name.
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know that they want them to
test free agency, but it does appear like twenty twenty
six is a huge priority, So I think I think
it's just going to depend on what number, like if
either of those guys are are are willing to, you know,
to take a lower number that versus test the open market,
I think. And also we're getting some stuff in the
chat about Tea Man not resign and I've brought this
up on the show before, Like he is from Lowell,
Massachusetts and would be a hell of a fit on
Boston if they could make that work.
Speaker 2: And he's been his his chain has been yanked multiple
times on this Clippers team. Hum, he's had to play.
What was that tweet from that great treat from Law
Murray where it was like, in like two weeks Terrence
may was at one point like starting to he was
the backup one. He had to play the five. He
started at the four. Like you're like, I could see
him wanting more of a definal role.
Speaker 3: I don't know, six tool player more than five six tools.
Speaker 2: You can play the same.
Speaker 3: Do you think either of these guys are saying, wait,
I could get more money if I ball out this
season and not sign the extension.
Speaker 2: Now I could contract.
Speaker 3: I could prove it because they should both get more
minutes and more shot opportunities and have the ability to
show off more of their offense this year.
Speaker 2: I think the contract here thing. I think it's more
real with like younger guys, like guys who are kind
of in the PG or not PG, the Terrence Zoo
range where they can also get another big contract after
this one.
Speaker 1: You know, maybe maybe maybe this is this is like
this next deal is probably going to be for both
guys like where they make the majority of their career
earnings four years. Yeah, you're kind of like, you know,
that's that's the peak of your earning potential.
Speaker 2: If Due gets four for one hundred, I don't think
he's getting more than that, which I think he could
maybe get. I don't think four for a hundred is
crazy for Sue.
Speaker 3: After night we saw from Jared Allen, I'd be good
with that.
Speaker 2: I hope, I hope they do it. I hope we
have the contract year thing comes true and these guys
just go crazy. That'd be awesome.
Speaker 3: I would just guess though, that maybe the Clippers would
like to get it done sooner than later. And then
maybe from the player perspective, it's, you know what, I'm
about to get more touches. I'm about to show that
I'm worth even more than However these contract negotiations are going.
Maybe that's why it's being dragged out a little bit further,
or we don't know exactly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, if I was either one of these guys, I mean,
they've both been like so reliable, I would probably say, like,
let's wait and see how this year goes.
Speaker 2: Ben on yourself, do you guys think and this is
completely out of thin air. I have no I know
that Terrence. I think Terrence was reffed by CIA, their
sports division. Wouldn't it be crazy if you were like
I feel like Zoo has like a weird agent, Like
Zoo's agent is like his uncle or something like that.
Am I making that up out of thin air? He
seems like a guy who would have a wonky agent.
And I don't mean that disrespectfully.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not positive by that, right. There was a
moment last season, either right before during the summer or
early in the year, when it was brought up regarding
contract extensions with Terrence Man, and he pushed back like,
oh no, we're not already even talking about that right now.
And it was one of the rare times where Terrence
Man kind of put his foot down with the media.
He's always so accessible and always so nice. So I
don't know. I want to read Tea Leaves here, but.
Speaker 2: All we've been doing this offseason is reading Tea Leaves all.
Speaker 1: A lot of literature, a lot of literature out there.
Speaker 2: Of literature at the bottom of the cup. D Flow
is asking we should have less back to backs, no
twelve Penn games on Saturday this season, right, theoretically, absolutely.
Speaker 1: But yeah, back to backs are weird because you're still
dealing with other teams' schedules. I would assume are off
the menus.
Speaker 2: Are off the menu. But fly so Fi Plaza did
ban concerts after the hard summer, which means into it
as in line to have more concerts, So who knows,
maybe we get bumped for some famous pop act. No,
I'm just kidding. I think I mean the twelve pm
the nooner games are done. They've like, like Bamber's talked
about that about having a new stadium. I'm pretty sure about,
like not having to play at twelve thirty on Saturday.
Speaker 3: The schedule is likely coming out in the next seven
or ten days. I think last year it was August
sixteenth or seventeenth or eighteenth. It is happening, likely in
the next week.
Speaker 2: My sister's birthday is August seventeenth. He's always so excited
that the NBA schedule might release them the same day.
They're doing this for me, Dame finally, but yeah, so you.
Speaker 1: Will have to have Joseph Fry Award on as soon
as the schedule is released.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, one hundred percent. I believe Josephry Award is
maybe going on Adam Show soon, yeah or name.
Speaker 3: I think he's coming on Monday.
Speaker 2: Hell yeah.
Speaker 3: My angle is to try to convince him to come back,
because I know he's kind of soured on this era
of Clippers basketball. But maybe with the changes this summer,
is he's all the way back in.
Speaker 2: That's a good call. Yeah. The Clippers haven't had a
Christmas Day game since twenty twenty one, and what a
Christmas Day game that was. That was a good time.
That was the Pat Bev deflection on Lebron.
Speaker 3: I think that was twenty twenty.
Speaker 2: That was twenty twenty. Well, all those years run together
for me. Due to a global pandemic.
Speaker 3: I wonder if the NBA at some point said there's
too many guys out, too many stars out, and that's
why the Clippers no longer being featured as much in
some of the primetime slots. Awesome, which is yeah, which
is fair, I think, But but into it, don't but
into it? Don't You don't want to feature that on Christmas?
That's true, it's kind of a big deal.
Speaker 1: No one cares, no casual Yeah, I don't think no
casual fan gives a ship about what the stadium is
on the Christmas Day game?
Speaker 2: Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait? What if
the home team has to play in Santa costumes?
Speaker 1: Well, that's different, that's nothing to new with the stadium.
That's a costume.
Speaker 2: That would be sick. Though. Maybe they, oh, Christmas Day.
Speaker 1: Give Christmas, they should be the Gene game.
Speaker 2: Christmas Day should be the Gene game. Or the home
team gives away Santa suits to the to the crowd,
so as you're looking into the crowd, you just see
a bunch of that'd be terrified. It'd be like the
Bomber mask idea we had where at into it the
first game they give away incredibly realistic Steve Bomber mass
to every single person going, and then you look in
the crowd and it's just twenty whatever thousand Steve Bers.
That sounds like a horrible dream.
Speaker 3: Yeah it it feels like a point break scene.
Speaker 1: Or something like, yeah, yeahs you predict that into it
this year?
Speaker 3: Oh oh, I think they're gonna sell out.
Speaker 2: Every Clipper like every game. Yeah, yeah, I don't know
if they're selling out every.
Speaker 3: Game that well, how long was their sellout streak? Because
this kind of flew under the radar during Lob City.
It was something like five years it was. It was massive.
Speaker 2: Yeah, much different brand of basketball.
Speaker 1: And I'm just saying I think a lot I guess
I'm just bringing it up. Not not even because of
less star power, but it just seems like the the
astronomical price hike is going to put a lot of
like regulars kind of off.
Speaker 2: I think so. I mean, I think where we need
to watch for the sellouts is going to be towards
the end of the year. If this team is in
this place, they're not selling out. Clipper Spurs is not
selling out towards the end of the year when they're
battling for the ninth and tenth spot. I don't think
that's gonna happen, but it could happen.
Speaker 3: I think a Wemby game's probably selling out.
Speaker 2: Honestly, Well, yeah, that's that's a good call.
Speaker 3: I think a Brandon Boston junior game selling out.
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, it'ssical to him being like and then
like those times when he was yeah that one game
in Boston sell out. I bet they'll sell out.
Speaker 3: Will's probably right. Like home games, the excitement of the
arena is enough to hold it over for a while,
but if they're not playing well at some point, that
could change if things went downhill. If they're competitive, though,
I think they're selling out.
Speaker 2: If they're competitive, sure, It's also we have to factor
in it's a less central location for most of the
people who live in Los Angeles. Selfishly wish they just
built their own stadium right next to Staples. If I'm
being honest, I wish that would have been possible.
Speaker 1: On top of stables demolshit, who cares, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: What we all wanted to take out buildings, take out
that building where all those graffiti departments are. How come
the Clippers couldn't play there?
Speaker 3: I helped the Intuit Dome staff as escorting us around
on Sundays and seeing this.
Speaker 2: How sick would it be, though? If the Clippers just
had opened a brand new, multi billion dollar stadium just
across the street from Staples.
Speaker 1: Oh, I think it'd be awesome, just because I mean
I've brought this up before, Like just all the infrastructure
around the stadium is already there. You know, there's like
already yeah, I mean a public transit, which I know
not that many people are worried about. But you know
there's bars and restaurants and like all the.
Speaker 2: Hanks is right there. Are they going to open a
Hanks down in Englewood? Do we know if that's happening.
Speaker 1: They don't franchise.
Speaker 2: Well that's actually that's actually a good call on Hanks
part Oh ex Bongo Project. I don't know how much
time you guys have by the way there, I'm just
kind of going as we go. Kai Jones Lob City
two point zero, Adam, I think you've ran into some
of the Kai Jones stands on Twitter, which kind of
remind me. It reminds me of like I feel like
like NBA stand culture is similar to like people investing
in like doge coin and like stupid ass fake you
know what I mean. Like it's like a bit like
the Kai Jones stands. It all has to be a bit.
None of that is real belief. And I don't mean
that disrespectfully. I just hope none of it's at Like.
Speaker 3: I don't think the rust stands was a bit.
Speaker 2: Rust stands are very real. But he had like a
resume you could point back to and be like, oh
he was an MVP. He was at one point one
of the top players. Like, yeah, Kay Jones has been bad.
Speaker 3: It seems like a lot of momentum for a guy
who's averaged two and two so far in minimum time
at the NBA level. And I'm rooting for him because
the Clippers could really use that athleticism. And yeah, if
they had a rim runner next to James Harden, it
would be a great connection. I just we haven't seen nearly.
Speaker 1: They don't have one now, djj.
Speaker 3: I mean Zoo could throw it down a.
Speaker 2: Little bit, can he? Big Grue?
Speaker 3: I don't know, asked him on to some bonus.
Speaker 1: I saw someone in the chat saying he's not strong enough.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know what Big Zoo or Kai Zoo.
Someone was saying Zoo is too soft. I don't think
he is hot. Take I do think he needs to
grow his damn hair out. We've talked about this and nausey. Okay,
here we go, Chunk, Chunk Sampson. We know this is
Chunk Sampson. You can't hide from us by taking your
last name up. Uh you guys. I think Moboba is
gonna be really good. That's my sleeper. I think he's
better than Kay Jones.
Speaker 1: He certainly has proven more at this level, but yeah,
played more at the NBA level.
Speaker 2: Uh, he has no post moves.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. I like Mobama and another guy
like I would really like to see succeed. I don't
think that that's what's gonna happen.
Speaker 2: But the backup, the backup center situation again terrifying.
Speaker 1: We talked about this every year.
Speaker 2: Oh, it's the new it's the new point guard issue.
It's we just have a terrifying like, we have a
teetering We went from two vets basically splitting time to
Mobamba guy jokes.
Speaker 3: Either way, he's an upgrade over what we saw for
Mason Plumley last season. I have no doubt about that.
Mason Plumbley was that rough. And you know I love
Sam big plumme a lot.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Plumbly experience, it was like, dude, just do
the just do the things you're supposed to do. I
don't care if you can awkwardly dribble all the fast break, like,
just contend that the Like if you would have combined
daniel Tice and Mason Plumley, that would have been the
best backup center ever. Yeah, because Daniel Ty didn't have
the height to challenge at the rim, but he did,
and Mason Bloody had the height but never played good
defense at the rim.
Speaker 3: Daniel Tye had all the instincts that Mason Plumbley did
not have. It was tough to watch. I don't know
how a guy can be out of position that much defensively,
But Charlotte fans are saying, I know how.
Speaker 2: He wasn't very good then either, yeah, will are you
gonna get which Jersey getting first? Mobamba or Kai Jones?
Speaker 1: Probably Obamba, but just because he is a song agree.
Speaker 2: I really wanted to be good because the song with
the Clippers wall would be sick feels like actually good?
Speaker 3: There is you can at least say with Mobamba. He's
still not a finished product. There still is upside to him.
He has shot a couple of years, thirty eight percent
from the outside. It's only about three takes. But it's
not nothing either. It's we're talking about a guy maybe
playing fifteen minutes a night, right, That's I'm not overly
concerned with who he's been so far and where he
could go.
Speaker 2: Well, and this depends too. We've talked about Zoo getting
more minutes. The damage is lesson from a bad backup
five situation. If Zoo just gets more minutes forty forty
a night tim.
Speaker 3: Style baby with a wig like andre Acaus he had
to wear with.
Speaker 2: A wig because of math abuse, Zoo on math would
be crazy, DoD They test your math in the NBA.
It's out of your system pretty fast. Have we looked at.
Speaker 3: That big blue Metszuo bro come on.
Speaker 2: Zoo on the blue kidding me thirty five and four
and twenty. Every night.
Speaker 3: He's wearing the top hat like Heisenberg Wall.
Speaker 2: He's losing it. Yeah, oh yeah, oh on the he's
not sitting down on the bench. He pacing up and down.
Speaker 3: I am the danger.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, we agree, JM. I one tho. We don't
know what's going on.
Speaker 3: We're on basalts. We're talking about Zoo.
Speaker 2: The off season, all right, any final thoughts. We've been
hanging for like an hour and fifteen will Adam, how
what do we want to see? I guess before the
season starts.
Speaker 3: I want to see a little bit more clarity with
the roster, with bones, with PJ. Tucker, with maybe a
mere coffee.
Speaker 2: You want bones traded?
Speaker 3: I don't. I'm not saying that. I just want decisions
to be made because it sounds like he's not going
to get much of an opportunity. They are looking to
trade him. That's what Lawrence Frank basically said. So is
that going to happen? Because that uncertainty looming with a
train camp coming up and guys who are going to
be unhappy, I don't think that's the best way to
open up a new year.
Speaker 2: I like that.
Speaker 1: I would just love Yeah. I would love for opening
into a dome to not a PJ. Tucker on the roster.
Whatever that takes.
Speaker 3: We'll put it better than I by any means necessary.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I like the clarity on the roster thing. I
would like two people who don't seem happy here to
be not on the team because we've got a lot
of guys who seem happy to be here. Derek Jones Jr.
At the rinko hind rhyme going to be a starter
like this is there's good vibes to be had, and
those are worth something when you're gonna be an annoying
team to play. Vibes are very important when you're not
a contending team. They are when you are contending, but
to save from bottoming out, They're incredibly important for a
non contending team.
Speaker 3: They went into last year's training camp with the unknown
and people talking about James Harden and when is that
trade going to happen? It would just be nice for
them to come into this training camp, hopefully with Kawhi
healthy and knowing who your guys are, or at least
what positions are available to be battled for by younger
guys like Jordan Miller and Kobe Brown. I just want
jimmy world level of clarity, that's all I want. One
of my favorite albums are Ay.
Speaker 2: That's off to you, mister Oslo. I do okay? So
I like this question from JM I one through two four.
What do you guys think about hate watching players? Is
it good or bad for sports culture? I would like
to go first and then we can rotate around. That's
okay with y'all. I think it's horrible for sports culture.
I think it's horrible for any culture. Hate watching something
is not good for the person watching it at all.
And that's the only person who it affects is the
person watching it. The person that you're hate watching the player.
And I'm not saying this towards you. Jam digits. It's
only effect, it's only fueling a weird thing by the
person hate watching it, and it's a thing that is
not good for productive miss in society around the regular people.
I guess if that makes sense. Like, if you're at work,
Will and someone's like, oh, yeah, I watched the Dodgers game,
they're like, oh, you're a big Dodgers fan, and they're like, no,
I just hate show. Hey Otani, you'd be like, okay.
Speaker 3: You're a sick one if you hate Altani.
Speaker 2: What I'm saying like, I do good four hours of
your day spat someone?
Speaker 3: Does? Someone out there does they're getting off on that.
Speaker 2: Well, there's one specific guy, probably.
Speaker 3: Sean, and freudering about is not a good way to live. Yeah,
I'm just gonna say that. It says a lot more
about you when you get that involved with somebody who
doesn't know if you're alive. What's the John Ham gift
for mad men?
Speaker 1: I don't think about you at all.
Speaker 3: Thank you. That's who we're trying to be.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Will, your thoughts on hate watching and why you
love it?
Speaker 1: I have a life, I got another shiit on one.
I'm not hate watching anybody. Yes, I if you hate
watching my team enjoy I mean I don't. I don't
really care.
Speaker 3: Who has time to hate on others when there's time
to hate on yourself, Come.
Speaker 2: On, right, work on yourself.
Speaker 3: When I have crystallized my inner hate for myself, then
I could start exactly. No.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just like, uh, it's weird, and it's weird
of behavior, and it's a thing that is so weird
that the people who do it don't tell people, which
makes it even weirder.
Speaker 3: Oh, they keep it in and you.
Speaker 2: Know what I'm saying. So you're just sitting there and
you're like, h I hate Tree Young and you're like,
who is this? What is this for? You're not even
blogging about this or anything. You're not even blogging Wait,
what did we I'll.
Speaker 3: Be honest about I spent far too much of my
life hating on the Lakers, hating on Kobe Bryant. It's
not a good way to live. I can confirm this. Sure,
you find some other friends to hate along with you,
And some of it's just good old fashioned hate. I
think that's the Georgia Georgia Tech saying whenever they meet
up that rivalry. Some of it's just sports. But if
you're just by yourself and you're getting off on someone
else's devisit a game that is sick o behavior?
Speaker 1: Real sick gooning, it's weirder, even weirder gooning.
Speaker 2: It's goony without the reward.
Speaker 3: Right, I still don't know what that is.
Speaker 2: Well, buddy, if we got an article in the Atlantic for.
Speaker 3: You to read Urban Dictionary, how are.
Speaker 2: You online so much? You don't know what gooning is?
All right?
Speaker 3: The pot I don't know what Twitter feeds your fallow.
Speaker 2: The podcast has taking a turn. I think we need
to get out of here. This has been a wonderful
happy hour pod. If you missed the episode we did
last Friday, it was a very fun time. It is
available on audio will where could they listen to it?

for that, excited to stellon you got on the basketball court.
If we get to play on it.
Speaker 3: I think we're getting like the red carpet treatment. I
don't know if they're gonna treat us like Mars or something, but.
Speaker 1: Will there be a lunch you set this up. Is
there going to be a lunch?
Speaker 2: Adam? You set this up so all of my expectations
are going to come down on you.
Speaker 3: If they're not mad, we're brown bagging for the lunch.
Bro I got multables for all of us.
Speaker 2: Okay, if we got some dirt cups in there, shout
out to everybody used to dirt cups, Adam. One positive
thing before we get out of here and send these
people on their way.
Speaker 3: We're getting closer to Clippers basketball, but more importantly, we're
getting closer to finally being home. Welcome home. The Clippers
have their own home. They're not too good for their home.
They have a home. Now into it done. We've been
