The game is over. Paul George money in the page, but the postgame reaction has just be gone. Kawhi Leonard is so smooth in the mid range. This is Clippers locker Room, a recap of today's game and a look ahead on your hope for LA Clippers basketball at now your host, you, sir, are a bad man, Adam Oslin. Clippers without Kawai, without Paul George, and they were running in Memphis and win one forty one to one thirty two over the Grizzlies. Welcome into your postgame show. I'm Adam
Oslin. Coming up. We'll get your second half highlight, your final box score. You'll hear from Coach Lewan the players. But first back out to your voice of the Clippers. No, I gotta say I'm proud of this team in this one. Didn't know about Kawhi Leonard until about an hour before the ballgame. He couldn't go, doesn't matter. And I'm really happy for
Russell Westbrook. How could you not be the story for this guy? And let's just think about this so I would use because as you heard pregame talk with Ron Lou we got an early screening of the new movie Air, So I would use a quote from there because I think it fits perfectly here. But I'm not going to ruin it for everybody, because I really think that
everybody should go see it. It was excellent. But essentially, Russell Westbrook was somebody who was undervalued as a recruit coming out of high school, had to really work to get to UCLA in the first place. And then when he got to UCLA, they basically told him like, you're not playing here,
man, You're just gonna come here and you can work whatever. And he worked his way not just into the rotation but as a superstar to the final four in the NCAA Championship game as a one two tandem with Kevin Love. That was unbelievable. And he worked and he worked and work. He
gets Oklahoma City and I've got a guy named Kevin Durant there. But Russell Westbrook is a star the second he sets foot on an NBA floor, right, So everybody starts raving about him, and everybody loves him, and then you build somebody up and build somebody up, and then Kevin Durant leaves and that's when he explodes and becomes the MVP. And Paul George gets there and they had some good years, they had some great moments, they had some
dips. I mean, that's what everybody does. But after that, it's been a journey for him and he set the record for all time triple doubles. But obviously there's been a lot of chatter. And what happens is you get built up and then you get torn down, and so now it's about can you build yourself back up? And well, all he's done since joining this team, Adam Is work is show up every day, be a professional, do it at the highest level. Whatever the team needs, I got
it. That's his mentality. And today thirty six points, four rebounds, tennessis two blocks on thirteen of eighteen, shooting five for five from three in thirty five minutes. He is the first player in Clippers franchise history with at least thirty five points tennessis and two blocks in a game that was phenomenal effort, which is what he brings every single night. I don't know, if this guy's on your side, there's no way you can feel anything but admiration
for what he brings to your team. And when I ask every player, and we've talked about this. But when I've asked any player that played with him prior Robert Covington, Eric Gordon, what did they say? One of the best teammates I ever had. And every player in this locker room as agreed to this point, and every coach in this locker room has agreed to this point. He's there for everybody. He's there to pick you up.
He's there to hype you up. He's there to mentor Terrence Man and bones Thiland, He's there to bring energy, and when the team isn't starting well, he's there to be the vocal guy in the huddle, something this team didn't have. This was well deserved, well deserved by Russell Westbrook and well put and Rusco and five of five from the outside. I believe this is the first game of his career where he's taken at least five three pointers and
made all of them. Speaking of Robert Covey did seven of seven from distance. Put the icing on the cake a little bit with that last one in a game where there was some chirp in between he and Dylan Brooks, who played very well had thirty himself. But you know, rowe Co came out on the winning side. Yeah. Look, I'm not expecting that Robert Covington, Russell Westbrook, and Bowen's Highland are going to go combine sixteen of eighteen
from three again on Wednesday on Friday. I just that's unrealistic to ask. But they did it tonight. And again, let's talk about this because we did. We said this the other way with the loss to New Orleans a couple of days ago on Saturday night. You mentioned it. You let a team get hot early and then everybody else starts to get in on the action. So Russ hit a couple threes early. Well, then everybody else says, all right, he's feeling it. Let's see if I'm feeling it.
And guess what those two guys especially were. I know that other guys hit a couple threes. Pale hit a couple in his return. Eric Gordon hit a couple in in his game today, But Tlu always says he coaches on feel. Today the field was just right, and Robert Covington helped deliver a ridiculously efficient performance himself. Twenty seven points on ten shots, ten shots in
thirty two minutes. That's ridiculous. Clipper Nation's feeling good. Bold's high You talk with him postgame, Noah, he goes eight to fourteen, He has twenty points his Clippers high believe, and I think he had the first eight points of the fourth quarter when the Grizzlies couldn't miss on the other end. Yeah, he was really spectacular in this game, a pristine ball game off the bench for really the entire bench unit for the Clippers. But Bones Highland
in that fourth quarter went into full takeover mode. He scored twelve of his twenty in the quarter, and he shot the ball five for six from the floor and two for two from downtown when the game reached its biggest point. This is what we've been talking about when it's been in relation to Bones Highland. He is not afraid of the big moment. He showed it as a
rookie last year. It's a rookie who necessarily wasn't expected to go out there as a twenty sixth overall pick and be an impact guy like he was. But he was because he wasn't scared of the moment. He knew that he could just go out there and be himself and good things would happen. And I think today was another good example. This is a I'm not saying this is a must win, and we've been talking about this how none of these
games are technically must wins, but they're close. They feel like playoff games every game for the Clippers who need to keep their seating and stay out of the play in tournament. He understood the assignments, as people like to say. He knew what he had to do, and he went out there and he executed at a high level. Norman Powell did return in this one. I thought he had some key buckets at the end of that third quarter for
the Clippers. Yeah, just to keep them in front at points, and then eventually it was to keep them tied going into the fourth because of the John Morant just supernova third quarter. Although however, like we checked, we said it on the broadcast, eight turnovers for John the game. He had twenty in the third, two in the fourth quarter two and it took him twenty eighth house to get the thirty six points, and that includes going twelve
of twelve at the free throw line. I thought the Clippers overall did a pretty good job on John Morant. He shot one for six in that fourth quarter. That's how you close out a game. So yes, his stat line looks great thirty six, four rebounds, nine assists, three steals. But overall, I thought Norman Powell getting those buckets late to your point in the third quarter and only playing twenty four minutes, having a pretty legitimate impact
in those twenty four minutes was crucial. And then locking in defensively, we said, which team's gonna defend first, that's the team that's gonna win. Happen to be the Clippers. Halfway through that fourth quarter, last one for you, Noah, Out of all the games so far this season, with just five left, this felt like as reminiscent of a stay ready, you know, just fighting and back against the wall type Clippers victory as we have seen all season long. And maybe it comes at just the right time.
Yeah. Look, I think that it's a little different, maybe than in the past, because you've got a guy in Russell Westbrook who won an NBA MVP, right, who's one of the greatest seventy five players in the history of the game as a first ballot Hall of Famer. Now he's not in his prime athletic ability anymore, but he still has a lot of it, and I think he proved that tonight. But to your point you said it, Kawhi Leonard was ruled out very close to game time. They didn't think
that he wasn't gonna play today. They didn't have a shoot around today, so they didn't necessarily go through lineups or anything. They just expected Kawhi was gonna play. They gained planned to have Kawhi out there, to be so quick on the fly. That's the stay ready Clipper mentality. To find out Marcus Morris is in the health and safety protocols, that's the Clipper mentality of Okay, next mayon up, Let's go out there, let's get it done.
And the bench, the bench in this game, unbelievable. Sixty six points from this Clipper bench. They were everything you could ask for. Mason Plumley, we didn't even talk about him. He gave twenty two hard minutes, six points, four rebounds, three assists, but he was three for three from the floor. Him and Evitza Zubots combined seven to ten from the floor, combined sixteen points, eleven rebounds, three assists between the two of
them. It's just really efficient basketball. And that's all you can ask for right now from a Clipper offense. That is humming. They put up one hundred and forty one points without the two one three connection in regulation. They win one forty one, one thirty two in Memphis over the Grizzlies in game one of this two game miniseries. No a great call. They're gonna run it back on Friday, tip time at five. We'll every pregame at four. We'll talk to you them. My friend, Wait, so I should
I just stay here at it? What do you think? I don't know. You got a little bit of a layover, Have some fun, have some barbecue. Yeah, yeah, I can't wait. I can't wait. Noah Eagles second half highlights coming up next. Clippers win by nine as they get thirty six from Russell Westbrook and shoot twenty two of thirty seven overall from distance. You're listening to the Los Angeles Clippers. Yeo, Netway, George and Leonard running. You're listening to LA Clippers basketball. But up top Clipper

We'll have Clippers talk for you eight six six ninety eight seven two five seventy eight six six nine eight seven two five seventy or get to me at follow Adam A. But let's get to your second half highlights. Clippers at the half tonight lad seventy to sixty four. But things would get tied up at one oh five heading into that fourth quarter as John Moran had a twenty point third and even with the Clippers continuing with their hot shooting, it was all
knotted up heading into the fourth. But to start things off for the Clippers and keep them in this one and out in front was Bones Highland coming toon top of the key, hands it off right, wind man swing it Highland pumps big one dribble, three balls up. Oh we got hit in the head, It didn't matter. He rattled it in. Bones Highland was sixteen and it's one thirteen one o nine. The utilizes comington now drives down the left alley, attacks to the ram, swooping delivery. Oh the jelly.
It goes off the window. For Highland one twenty two, one twenty he was like Michael Jordan the end of Space. Jamp bones Highland with twelve points alone in that fourth quarter, but the Grizzlies were not going away, however, neither was Roco's three point shooting. Kyle looking to attack, had a strip, got it back left wing. It's Covington, another three, Covington, another three, Roco going loco and the Clippers leap by four. The streets are calling him four Roco. He went mad in this one, seven
of seven from the outside. But to close it out, Russell Westbrook left to right, Westbrook down the left alley, Westbrook to the rim leys any in the left hand. He goes right past Morant one twenty six, one twenty two. Russ with twenty nine crossover drive. It was right, Westbrook gets to the rim, bakes it in with the right hand thirty one for
Russell Westbrook. Westbrook driving middle into the paint to the ram inside hand finish goes down Russell Westbrook with thirty four and it's one thirty one one twenty two La Russ had nine of his thirty six points in this one in the fourth quarter thirteen of eighteen from the floor. He was five of five from distance.
The Clippers as a team shot sixty percent from three, and without Kauai, without Paul George, they find a way to stop the hottest team currently in the NBA, in the Memphis Grizzlies, who had just won seven straight, and they overcome thirty six from John Moran. Clippers win one forty one to one thirty two in Memphis over the Grizzlies, a team they'll see on Friday, same tip time at five, pre game at four one. Coming

Clip Nation. Best victory of the season. Pretty much, any win the rest of the way will likely be considered that because with five games remaining, they are also crucial. They are also needed. Can't call it a must win till they become that. This was just a very, very necessary victory, but also an improbable one for the Clippers, who found out about an hour before the ball game Kawhi Leonard was not going to be able to go
for personal reasons. We're hoping for the best with him, obviously, no Paul George right knee sprain, and Russell Westbrook puts on a masterpiece of a performers for the Clippers. His best game as a Clippers, without a doubt. Had thirty six on thirteen of eighteen shooting and five of five from distances where he ended up and I believe it's the first time in his Hall of Fame career where he's taken at least five three pointers in made all of them
unreal. He led them from the get go. Had fifteen points on the first quarter when at one point the Clippers were outscored eighteen to oh. The Memphis Grizzlies went on an eighteen oh run after the Clippers were a five nothing, but Russ continued to fight and battle and that's what guys love about him. They talk about it all the time. He's everybody's favorite teammate and he's becoming a fan favorite now as a Clipper. Came over after the All Star
break with just twenty one games remaining. Clippers now eight and eight with him, but there was going to be an adjustment period. They lost some close ones out of the gate, losing five straight, but now they have won eight of their last eleven and the Clippers are starting to play some gritty basketball against a team in the Memphis Grizzlies tonight who yes, they were down players too, but they still had John Morand who gave him thirty six and they
had still just won seven in a row. John didn't play yesterday against Orlando. They won that one anyways. He was rested. He was ready, had a twenty point third quarter. It was tied heading into the fourth at one oh five and bones Highland Busy Bones. He comes out hits a three pointer to start, then gets to the basket another three. He had the first eight points for the Clippers and generated the first ten off an assist to Mason Plumly for a dunk a no look pass to make it one fifteen to
one twelve. Memphis couldn't miss though either I don't believe they missed a shot first five and a half minutes of the fourth quarter, which tells you how good the Clippers had to execute on the offense as well to keep them at Bay and Robert Covington. It wasn't just Russell Westbrook who was having that out of body like experience from three rowco went lowco Is Noah Eagles said seven of seven from distance, most threes he has made in a ball game since,
he said. The Clippers franchise high with eleven last year against Milwaukee. Covington finished with twenty seven and thirty one minutes, and it must have felt good when he hit that final three pointer to put the ball game away, because there was some talking, as you would expect with Dylan Brooks out there, they got into it after a jump ball. It just fueled this Clippers team in Roco even more. For a guy to have twenty six dnps this season
and stay ready the way he has is remarkable. He could be there secret weapon if he continues to get time, and I don't see how you can keep him out of the rotation. I don't know what to do with bones Hiland now as well. When they get back closer to hole when Kawhi Leonard is there. Coach lu said he wanted to go with nine guys. Thought that would have meant both of them could be out of the rotation, but they were so necessary bones Highland making things happen, especially down the stretch,
whichwelve points on the fourth quarter. Robert Covington, his defense of eats Zubos Big Zoo in twenty three minutes, just had ten and seven, but they got him some easy ones. But defensively when he returns to the ball game in the fourth quarter, and give coach lew All the credit, just brilliant coaching throughout. When the Clippers we're tied up at five after giving up a five oh run after starting the game up by five to Memphis, he called
it time out. We'll hear from him in a little bit. By the way, when they gave up an eighteen oh running the first quarter, he's called a time out, and he made some moves right then and there, brought in plumbly, brought in. I want to say it was norm for the first time in their last twelve games. Norman Powell was back in the lineup, and although he had four turnovers and the Clippers still had some bad
ones coming off of steals themselves. They give it right back three times in the fourth quarter, but Pale hit some big shots at the end of the third when the Clippers and their offense stalled out, they went about three minutes scoreless near the end of the third period. To break that shooting slump, it was a three from Norman Powell and then I believe he had, yeah, a two point worth fifty five seconds left as well, just a ridiculous
left handed layup. So a guy who hadn't played looked to be in rhythm still was on a rehab assignment coming off the shoulder injury. Played twenty four minutes, four of nine, two three pointers, thirteen points. Yeah, four turnovers, but two steals look good over all out there. They're gonna need him down the stretch. They're gonna need him in the postseason, but there are no guarantees. With just five games left and the way things were
shaking up in the Western Conference, well, we have a moment. Let's pause ten seconds for station identification. Here on Los Angeles Clippers Areio Networking AM five seven yarly Sports. This is LA Clippers Basketball A five seventy KLAC Los Angeles, seven KSR HD two Los Angeles and iHeart radio station. That was my busy bones fast rap there Bones Highland, though no one looked faster at times. Okay, when John Morant was on the court, he's still the
fastest player. But to have a guy with the juice and the jolt of Bones Highland who has come alive since he's gotten minutes now the last four games, he didn't play for twenty days and has helped them get victories in pivotal spots. Clippers have won three of their last four, and he had his fingerprints all over those wins. In fact, in his last four games now
he has twenty eight assists to eight turnovers. And I need to find and see that one to have beats the Zubos in the fourth quarter again, that was Flashy, That was Jay will White Chocolate, that was Jason Kidd, That was Steve Nass Stockton, unless flash it was Stockton, but he could
make some magic Johnson esque Russell Westbrook asque. I'm so happy for us for him to be embraced by a fan base after what happened across the Hall this season, and to find the right fit with the team with all this shooting, that appreciates what he does and knows how to accentuate his strengths in the way the Clippers due thirteen of eighteen, though five of five from three when they needed him most in a game without Kauai an hour beforehand. They found
that out and Russ has his best game as a Clipper. You gotta show him a ton of love. Ten assists is just two turnovers. He's been better in that area recently. He was also finding guys. Just a balanced attack, and the Clippers end up shooting sixty two percent from the field and
sixty percent from three. They never really cooled off. I was concerned because at the half, yeah, they had the lead by I want to say six, but the shooting was so out of the ordinary, an outlier, that I was worried that if it started to regress with how many more shots Memphis got up due to fourteen offensive rebounds totals, so the Clippers having just three, and they would end up taking seventeen more shots, that if the Clippers cooled off at all, they were in trouble. They never did offense,
just kept humming. Usually there's always that regression to the mean. You fear it when you're on a hot streak. You welcome it when you progressed in the mean when you're cold. The Clippers just consistently we're red hot twenty nine the first, forty one points in the second, thirty five and the third and thirty six points in the fourth. Without Kaha and Paul George, they put up one hundred and forty one on a team with a top five defense. I believe on the season in Memphis, I know they were down
some guys, but they had their main guy. Clippers were missing their main two guys, and they had Bones Highland at twenty two years of age, just competing on both ends too. He had another steal. I'm telling you, I don't know how you keep this guy off the floor if he's not turned the ball over and he's given that level of effort defensively, I don't know how you do it. Coach, who's got the toughest job in sports. Maybe you have so much talent you gotta push the right buttons at the
right time, But he's the right guy for it. I loved the way he managed this game, time ounce wise, rotations wise. It was a flawless performance from him and damn near from the Clippers shooting wise. Terrence Man also had a steal and a throw down in the fourth. He was great, a plus eighteen that led everybody out there. I had eleven points, three of six shooting, one of three from the outside, three assists,
zero turnovers. Nicholas but Tum cooled off after coming into this one. He was sixteen of his last twenty two from three, just one of five from three. But he was one of the guys I believe they took out early in the first when it just wasn't working, when it didn't look right. It was him in Big Zoo out, Mason Plumley and Norman Powell in and the Clippers after being down. I believe it was thirteen in the first, had it to within one after the first twelve minutes. Give it up to
coach Lou made the right moon, which there's five games left. Clippers got to continue to make them and they take on Memphis and run it back on Friday. I guess the team that's gonna be hot and motivated. Luke Nard was only one of three from the outside. You always worried about him burning you coming back to haunt you. He had been on a hot streak from
the outside, shooting fifty five percent from three his last ten games. His three point percentage on the season now I think it's up to forty eight percent, So I want to say is leading the league. Eric Gordon, though he hit two big three pointers, he's been steady and coming into this one, he's been shooting forty five percent since he came back over to the Clippers from distance been the starting lineup had fourteen. This was best win of the
season and one of the more resilient wins we've seen all year. It almost looked like the Clipper reclaim their identity being that bunch, the stay ready group, next man up mentality. Yeah, there's a lot of sports cliches in there, Ben Mallor, I get it, but a lot of them ring true with this Clippers team. Now night lights to night where Russell Westbrook turns back the clock and re enters his prime with controlling the ball game on both
ends. And by the way, he was my player to watch. I'm not going to pet myself on the back too much, but thirteen of eighteen from the field and five of five from distance, with thirty six one of them this game. Javier and Lahabre heights start things off tonight. Tire on clipper Stock. What's up, Adam great win U Tylou equals him up today? I mean he was a very pride feel like you said, we're in the beginning. He put in plumby and power and that's what he's out of.
Coach, you know, it's it's it's you know, it's not working today. You got to change it out. The sense of urgency was palpable to your point, Javier, you could just tell if something was different. I mean, a five oh run is nothing in the NBA. And as soon as he saw he called him time out early. It's actually he didn't see something. He didn't like people, and I gotta change it up.
But yeah, now with Covington playing the way he played and bones, I mean at this point, I mean, when Nicole to the playoffs, he's gotta go. I'm thinking ten deep, right in deep, because we're talking unprecedented stuff. If he's really going ten deep in today's age, yeah, I mean it's it's I mean, he's gonna have to. I mean,
this is of course, including Paul Georgian. Wayne does come back I mean, this is a I mean, like I said earlier, it's a great great uh great uh victory, and uh you gotta keep you gotta you know, you gotta keep going another thing too real quick. I know I've been harping on Marcus Morris a year. I mean, do you think, I mean, after everything that's going on, he thinks it ill be gonna plane again. But what do you think about that? Though? That's it.
I'm just just wondering because the weather plane now they're playing really well with all Marcus Moore, So that's it. That's it, Thank g Adam. We'll see Javier. They might just ride the hot hands. Of course, Marcus Morris currently in health and safety protocols. We're hoping for a speedy recovery for
him. But Nicholas Batum now being in the starting lineup that was made official post game the other night, and with Robert Covington who has shot over fifty percent from three his last fourteen games now after going seven of seven from three tonight, how do you keep me out of the rotation? How do you keep a guy with hands that quick? I know he's not the great as one on one defender. Great health defender, though he was a plus eleven
twenty seven points off ten shots. Just stupid. It's it's a wild box scor to look at it. Just it raised an eyebrow for all the right reasons. But the Clippers hot shooting continued and it was a win. You could be proud of Clipper Nation for them to do this without Kauai, without Paul George, against what was the hottest team in the NBA. Memphis Grizzlies are one seventh straight, and they had John Morant back. He had thirty six twenty of those in the third quarter, and the Clippers were able to
hold back the floodgates enough and match them every time they hit shots. The high degree of difficulty and crazy shot making that in that fourth quarter was unreal, and his starred with balls highland of the Clippers having their first eight points and then getting Mason Plumbly a dunk off an amazing assist, but Memphis pushed
them. They weren't missing either. The Clippers took the challenge. They punched right back every time, and Russ came back into the ball game and picked up where he left off was getting to the baskets, sweeping layups, had nine of his thirty six in the fourth. Just a great, great win with five remaining in the regular season. Coming up next, you'll hear from the head coach in Russell Westbrook post game. Clippers win one forty one to
one thirty two over the Grizzlies in Memphis. Back to your phone calls as well. Eight six six, ninety seven two five seventy eight six six nine eight seven two five seventy we'll Updike from clips on tip will be here. You're listening to Clippers stock on M five seventy elis fours, George and Leonard running. You're listening to La Clippers basketball. But up top Clipper puts it
down plus the foul every game all season long on their official homes. Busts all eyes on Russell Westbrook, who has thirty six points his Clippers high ten assist and goes five of five from the outside. Clippers win one forty one to one thirty two over the Memphis Grizzlies in a game where they shoot sixty percent from three. And I'm doing some calculations right now, but the last four games from the outside have been absurdly hot shooting games from the Clippers.
They lost one of them. But I'm tallying that up right now, Jose in Downey, what's up here on Clipper stock? What's up had him? How you doing? Man enjoined this Clipper win. I gotta say he wasn't too sure what to expect when I saw that Kauai was out. But Russ really really showed up and the team just rallied behind him. They follow the leader, Yes, follow the leader. And he's he's a great vocal leader, no matter no matter what has gone on. Yeah, no doubt,
Jose. Look, the guys love him in the locker room. They campaigned for him. They wanted him with the Clippers badly. They got him. You got to make good on it now. Russ more than did so tonight, and overall has definitely been a positive for this Clippers team. There have been some ups and downs, but tonight Russ all the way up in his best performance in the toughest spot so far. With the Clippers down both Kawai and Paul George. They had not won a game without Kawhi Leonard since December
twenty six. I want to say they were three for their last fourteen when it came to winning ball games without Kauai. It's tough to overcome not having your superstars in this league when you're taking on one in John Morant, but Russell Westbrook remembered, hey, I still got it. He ain't done yet. Lawrence Frank said it when they brought him in. Even at thirty four, you can make the argument he's the most athletic player, most athletic player
on this Clippers team. And some of those plays had a big throw down the first half. It was either three or he got to the basket for a tough layup. Just proud to see the Clippers fight back each and every time. Because the Grizzlies pushed them in eighteen old run in the first quarter and the Clippers found a way to still just be down by one. That's incredible. A lot of heart from this Clippers team. Tonight, Sean and Inglewood, what's up, heymen? How are you man? I'm good,
Sean, how are you feeling? I'll feel I'm pretty good about tonight's victory. And I want to tell you what the difference is. You always did okay because instead of just playing playing small and slow, they played small and fast. Okay, So any three of those Clipper guards can play at the same time on the floor, and you get speed and everybody, all those guys, each one of those guards are thinking in our mind, I can take my gal to dribble, I can do what I want, and I
can take him out and I have space to hit my jumper anytime. And so basically you got that, you got a very few turnovers, and you got a score of one hundred and forty one point. And remember I kept saying, I want to see Russell Westboot just take it to the hole that they had a little bit on a leash, and then without Paul and without Kawai, he kept taking it to the hole. So they can't just stand around and let Paul and Kauwai just pounding the ball onto the floor. This
team has to move. You don't really have besides Zoo and Plumbly, you don't really have that much as far as big except for Diffrenchiman. So from there we just have to just move faster and allow me this analogy. Dallas has been losing when they first got Kyrie. They won their first two games, even beat the Clippers, scoring one hundred and thirty one hundred and forty point. When Luca comes in, Luca plays slow. He slows them down. They cannot play slow. That's why Dallas is losing, even though he
has the talent. Let me tell you something, Sean, they cannot play defense. That's why they're losing. That's still too Sean. They're still scoring. They're still scoring, Sean. Right, And speaking of D the Clippers really turned on that D in the fourth quarter. All those turn over,
the fourth turnover was that they did. But again, you have athletic fast people can take their guys off the dribble and I don't care about if you have to go eleven D. Each guy brings something special when they come on the floor, and they can win. They can beat anybody like this, Sean, you know who I thought was the difference in the fourth quarter, And I know you're gonna like this. It was one of eVisa Zoo came
back into the ball game when they went back to playing big. His drop coverage on John Morant, who only had two of his thirty six and the fourth after having twenty in the third was impeccable. And who got a couple of blocks in there too. That Yeah, I saw it. Yeah, I mean, the D was there Cuvington d was ridiculous. He had a
steal on John Moran at the four minute mark of the fourth. This team was swarming defensively in a game with and don't get me wrong, Memphis, I want to say, hit their first seven or eight shots in the fourth and a lot of them were well defended, and it did not matter at all. But the Clippers were able to eventually shut the faucet off in the last four minutes. And remember when I told you Covington over Canard, Remember
that Philly game whenever it just burning Canard on defense. And I shoot as well as Canard plus played defense, and he proved it, Like I don't. I don't think he can shoot as well as Kennard? Could he tonight? Yes he did? Okay, that's your but I think he's no, no, no, what do you mean? That's my opinion. How is he better shooting? Has he been in three point contest? Has as he shot almost fifty percent from three in a season? Can can get his own
shot? I've seen him get his own shots. That's not true. Robert Covington isn't exactly always creating for himself either. He's a spot up shooter, but look, I agree the defense. They're two different players. I don't even know why you compare them. But Robert Covington is just somebody that the Clippers. You know, I've gotten calls all season long, Sean, of how is Roco not playing? And I haven't had a good answer for that night. It's like tonight, it's how do you how do you keep him
out? How do you keep him out? How do you keep bones Highlanding out of the rotation? They got a five minutes for a lot of guys. I agree, but it's a good thing to have, and I look forward to seeing them play those three guards in the lineup at the same time sometimes just to change up the pace and have build a team on their hills. And thank you for the call, Adam, appreciate you so much.
You to best, all right, Sean, appreciate you. The difference is now, as opposed to earlier in the season, when the Clippers are running three guards, they would have guys out there that just weren't great defenders, with John Wall, Reggie Jackson, Luke Kennard. Now where they're running three guards out there, and if you're counting one of them as Terrence Man and then you've got someone like Eric Gordon and Russell Westbrook. They're bigger now.
Bones Highland is certainly not known for his defense, but I'm telling you, over the last four games, he has given an exceptional effort on the defensive end. He's gotten steals, he's gotten blocks, he has fought, he has competed. If he does that and doesn't turn the ball over. The heist that the Clippers made on the Denver Nuggets, getting Bones for two second
round picks is going to be talked about for years to come. I'm not saying it's a herschel Walker situation or anything like that, but Bones Highland, it's twenty two years of age to get him for two second round picks. With his passing ability and his scoring and the way he sees the floor and the way he puts him up from distance, he was four or six from three and I got the number for you thanks to Sean and Inglewood. Or
give me a little time to make this calculation about the Apokus. The Clippers in their last four games have hit seventy five of their one hundred and forty seven attempts from three. That means they've been shooting fifty one percent from the outside over their last four games. That's hot shooting, but it's created through guys attacking and getting into the paint. Good process leads to good results.
If you go off your philosophy of two feet in the paint, touching the paint, spraying it back out, kicking it back out, well, you're drawing multiple defenders. You're getting the defense in rotation, and you can find the open man for an open look, and that increases your chances of knocking them down. It's not happenstance. It's not just something flukey. They have the shooters that can do it when they play Clippers basketball and first get downhill.
Clippers win one forty one to one thirty two over the Memphis Grizzlies. Quick time out. We'll get back to your phone calls eight six sixty nine eight seven two five seventy eight six six nine eight seven two five seventy. We'll have Chuck Mockler on from Clips and Dip next. Plus you'll hear from Coach Low paying the price. Clippers win in Memphis one forty one to one thirty two. Run it right back on Friday, hopefully with Kawhi Leonard.
This is Clippers Stuck here on a five seventy l a sports who is blocked by George. This is LA Clippers basketball. He is a one man king, crawl and defensive man on the home of your LA Clippers. Last times five chains on my neck. It was no smile on my bread. Last Clippers winning Memphis one forty one to one thirty two over Job Moran and the Memphis Grizzlies without Kawai, without Paul. George doesn't matter. Didn't mean to go all Rocks. There was the Rocks are Dwayne, We're close. I
feel bad when it's Donk died too. Uh. Clippers win by nine in Memphis. Welcome back in This is Clippers stock. I'm out of Oslin. Eight six six ninety eight seven two five seventy eight six six nine eight seven two five seventy is the phone number coming up. Back to your phone calls. Plus you'll hear from Coach Low and Russell Westbrook, who put on a virtuoso like performance. Thirty six points is Clippers high. Tennessis just two turnovers
and goes five of five from the outside. Oh we got Chuck Macklern chuck from clips and dip Pod does it with myself and Will up Deck, Chuck Russ, Hayters and Shambleson. I'd including that guy who got ejected. Yeah, one of the two fan ejections that Westbrook has been involved with this year. No, this was, I mean it literally was. This has to be one of Russ's most efficient games of all time. Five or five from three is absolutely fantastic. But the thing that I'm most excited about is what
you've said he had the tennisis he had two turnovers. The decision making for the most part was great. He was active on defense, He did his part like this was. I mean, you know, no PG, no, Kauai. Everyone expects him to step up. He exceeds those expectations. And Robert Covington, shockingly, we're seventy plus games in, we've learned that he's very good at basketball, which is great to see. He came just lights out yet again, So I mean, this is Russ's game ball.
Absolutely, he deserves that. He did great, And you know, we get a little bit of wrestlingfore that back to back where who knows what the availability of quiet going to be? Yeah, you mentioned it there. Roco though, seven of seven from three and in your face Dylan Brooks, who had thirty still, but those two got into at first. It was Brooks and Russell Westbrook in the first half sharing some words. I like him, actually, I like Dylan Brooks. I like the edge that he plays with.
I think it may have helped the Clippers and have helped a lot of teams in the Western Conference. When you do a lot of talking, you can up the intensity level from the opponent at times two. Not that Russ needs a lot of that. He always plays with a chip on his shoulder, of course. But Rocco was talking after that jump ball, and then let his game do the talking with that final three pointer he hit as the game was winding down. But yeah, how do you keep Robert Covington out
of the rotation anymore? He's too damn good. Yeah, he's been too good and he now is currently too good to be out of the rotation, which which is awesome. He talks about it, poke, and we said it made it kind of fun talking with those fans. They said that, you know, we had eleven points and they bet him, you know, Robert, they said, we bet you won't score more, and Rocco said,
put five hundred thousand on it, and the guy said sure. So every time he made a point after that, he just looked at him, and that was about sixteen points more after that, that guy owes him like a California lottery amount of money. Yeah, that guy owes him a lot of money. So yeah, I know, a huge shout out to Robert Covington. And then you know, look you look at rest of the three
point numbers, Rocos three point numbers, Bones goes four or six. Those guys made up what was a sixteen of the twenty two threes we made, so we needed every single one of these threes. It wasn't a blowout game by any means. It was single digits. Those guys being efficient from Peace saved us. Robert Covington, I was in Terrence may On the second best
plus minus on the team thirty two minutes. It was great. I got to see twenty four minutes and Norman Powell, I it's tough because you love this minute distribution from the Clippers, but you know we're still missing probably you know, a combined you know from PG hear from Kawai. Excuse me, we're missing probably aout thirty six minutes so when we're at full strength's gonna be interesting to see how Tylo handles this. I thought Tyler was great tonight with
their rotations, but Toomb didn't necessarily have it. He played the fewest minutes of anyone on the team, still nineteen. He was still you know, good defensively and things like that, but offensively it wasn't there. Tyler made
the right calls and kept the right guys in when he needed to. Yeah, quick to pool guys when it wasn't working, and it was quick to inject you know a lot of that youth and explosiveness in Bones Highland being out there with Russ and Terrence Man. When those three guys, when two of those three are in the ball game, when any of them are in the ball game, it just looks like a completely different Clippers team. But Bones
Highland, you brought him up in the start of that fourth quarter. They lose this game without the way he came out and put it upon himself like, Okay, I'm gonna come out here in ball I'm gonna score. He had the first eight points of the fourth for them. He had twelve of his twenty in the fourth quarter, had an insane pass to Mason Plumley for a dunk. What he did it wasn't just you know, style over substance. It was a much needed burst in crutal and crucial clutch time minutes.
I mean he did everything twenty points five board, six assists, a steel and a block, only one turnover. This Bone we talked about on clip clips and dip, but Bones and Rusts are probably last guys who you know, need more confidence. But as Bones gets this confidence, he's starting to play better. We don't really know what his playoff picks is gonna look like. I don't think that there's room for him and the regular playoff rotation. When Kawai comes back, we'll see. I mean, maybe he pushes the
norm out a little bit if he keeps playing on this street. But Bones has been right. I hope the Clippers can keep him and develop him a bit because him and Terraces are just fantastic to watch play together. Their energy blends off each other, well, they kind of fill in gaps for each other. But Bones looks happy to be playing basketball again. After I get any chances in Denver, the Clippers look athletic. Dare I say it?
When those two are out there for an older team. It's just strange to see there's been so much roster turnover at times, you don't know what you're looking at. If you've been watching Clippers basketball all season long, when those
two are out there, it's just a different brand of basketball. I don't know how they keep them out in games where they just need a spark, where they're down ten, they look a little bit lifeless in case of emergency break glass, bring in Bones Highland, just give them a different pace, a different tempo, get them playing with speed again. Russell Westbrook's been very good at that. I think you brought up the number the other day,
but the Clippers were bottom ten in assist per game with Russ. Now they've been top ten over the last sixteen games post All Star Break. So the difference he's been able to make, and just the way this team has shifted their offense and the way they play basketball, and the points they've been putting
up. I mean, I just said it, but the last four games now, they've been shooting fifty one percent from the outside, and while some of it's hot shooting, it's because they're playing that brand of basketball that coach Lewis been wanting to see from this team, which is drive, kick, swing, get to the paint or die trying. We're seeing more of that, and it's because of some of these guys that's just play with the youthful exuberance. Yeah, I mean if before the All Star break, I don't
think I'm speaking too crazy. At a turn here, there wasn't a lot of joy to see on the court for the Clippers, right, even when things were going well, it was a machine. It was methodical. There wasn't that flare of that energy that Bones like a guy like Bone Thailand or Russell Westbrook even brings so and winning does help a lot of that. Has been playing a little bit better over this last handful of games. I think we're eight and eight now since the All Star breaks. Nice to be back
at five hundred, but we need that energy like that. That's something that's part of basketball that there's no staff for it, but it really helps a team like those Clippers. And Tyler says a couple of days ago, we don't have a roster of quote unquote movers out there, right. We're a bit off from the older team. So Terrence and Bones kind of understanding their energy role and seemingly kind of kicking it up a notch. There's just been
wonderful for this team's process because they're also playing within themselves. Unless your Bones Highland going for a layup, then I don't know. Five out of ten times, I'm not sure what's going to happen. But I love the energy.
I like what Avizza Zubos did in the fourth quarter, because as good as John Morant wasn't that third with twenty points, Big Zoo and drop Coverage played him about as well as you could and forced him into some missus and in a game with all this hot shooting and a ton of highlights, I think that maybe missed just the defensive presence of Avizza Zuboss when they needed him most. Yeah, Zoo, it's so funny looking at these zoobots stat line.
You know, he has ten and seven on fifty seven percent shooting, and he's like, well, great, that's exactly what we need. He was a little bit foul happy in this one, but the rests were kind of on one in the second and third quarters, which was a little unerstandable foul on Norman Powell where they said he kicked him that was great. Yeah, I don't think he was close, No, not even close. But Zoo has been awesome. He's another guy who just puts his head down and
does what's asked. Right, twenty two minutes or so, we saw some small ball lineups, you know, harkening back to some of those old Rockets days with Russ e j and Rocco. So Zoo's been the consummate and you know, he's been the steady guy for the Clippers, right, and we just got to hope it continues to be steady. I'm an underrated point there. There is familiarity with Russell Westbrook and those two. It's not just Paul
George who he's played with before. Great point by you, So what do you think we see on Friday. Let's hope Kawhi Leonard is able to go, But adjustment wise, we don't think the Clippers can continue to shoot sixty percent from the outside. But we've talked about this before. Depending on the playoff route, this is a team you could see in the Memphis Grizzlies, and you know they're two and oh against them so far this season. Out of the options, it wouldn't be one of the worst if they caught them
at some point in the playoffs. So these two game mini series to see it like this at the end of the regular season, these games obviously feel like there's a lot more going on, not just from the standing standpoint, but possible looks you could see in a playoff matchup. Yeah, this game tonight, I think it is a little tough because the Grizzlies were missing. You know, you run down their list of top ten players, they were
missing probably around four or five of them tonight. But I do agree with your overall point that I think those Clippers team matches up well with the Grizzlies, especially when you add Kaile Leonard back into the mix, and you know that's the second best, second real matchup, and we get Paul George back.
Obviously, I still left their chances in there too, But I don't know, Man, we seem kind of in this inevitable path of playing the Suns right now, which I wouldn't necessarily enjoy, and I don't I'm not really sure if I want to tempt fate and try and get too cute in these standings and drop down the sixth and have something to go horribly wrong and then end up at the play in so I'm hoping the Clippers can win if
many games as possible. At this point, I don't care who the playoffs opponent is because I don't think we exactly have a The process has been good, but I don't think we've had a process in place long enough for me to feel confident in kind of picking and choosing our opponent. That being said, most people who are listening to this are have the Daniel two rou game against the Thunder burned in their brain where we watched him get blocked. We
felt like twelve times so we could choose our path into the playoffs. So the Clippers might get a little crazy, but well we'll see Clippers one one, one thirty two in Memphis over the Grizzlies. He's Chuck Chuck Mockler from the Clips and Dip pod does it with myself and will Updyke. I think it's just me and will though tomorrow. So we wanted to keep you on for more of a long form interview here tonight, Chuck. After this big victory from the Clippers, thanks for doing it. I'll take it. I'm
just happy to come on after William coming up next. You're gonna hear from the head coach and Russell Westboro. Clippers win by nine in Memphis over the Grizzlies. And you're listening to and five seventy l A Sports George and Leonard Running. You're listening to LA Clippers Basketball. Clipper puts it down plus the foul every game all season long on their official home Clippers win in Memphis one forty one, one thirty two over the Grizzlies. Welcome back in This is
Clippers Talk. I'm Adam Oslin coming up. We'll update you on the Western Conference standings. She'll hear from Russell Westbrook. We'll get back to your phone calls, but first I want to hear from the head coach. Pushed all the right buttons in this one. It was coach Lou. You know,
take an advantage of miss masters, try to exploit. And then the tough thing just we had a lot of chances in transition where we just turned the basketball over and we got a chances to get layups or get fouled or get something at the basket, and we just didn't convert though, So we gotta be better with that. But you know, overall, just like the way we you know, we fought back, took some early timeouts to try to, you know, get our composure, and I like the way our guys
fought and competed all night. And so if you play against the Tailor Jinkings team and you don't compete, you you'll get embarrassed. I don't care who's on the floor. And you saw that tonight right the way you do, the way you uh start this game was poppsy out at the deal. I mean they went on up. I think the thirteen you know would run something like that. That's you. You had to you know, kind of reset
the game a little bit. And how did you see your team kind of doubt stack to the point where you turn that thing twenty five points time? I mean, I don't know if the time change or but guys just looking a little tired and a little sluggish early on, and so just get a couple of early substitutions, try to get some energy in the game. I
thought helped us out and really affected the game. And then like I said, we you know in that in that stretch, was able to come back I think closer to uh one point being down one at the end of the first quarter, after being down thirteen, so just you know, trying to balance the game, just trying to see what works, find what works. And like I said, I just love our guys would continue to keep competing.
We understood, you know, how important this game was to us, and we just stuck with it and we was able to, you know, come out with a big win. I thought Bones and Russ tonight we were
unbelievable. And that's what we need. You know, when guys are out, we need guys to step up and roll cold Bones and and uh, Russ definitely did that for us. I I gotta ask my Brusse will flick because I mean, you were talking about the player else traded bought out of this deal and available and you and he wasn't starting, so he started to run away. And this isn't the first time he's had a big game.
To get a big game of the secondment as far as the efficiency more than ten BUCkies, but to basically be responsible to twenty six out of forty eight field goals made. What did you see in the hit before you got hit that led you to do that? You could put him into the positions to seem like this for one just the way he approaches the game every night. You know, he plays every night, He plays hard every single night,
and just the pace he plays with. I thought we needed, you know, for this team, you know, just to get easy baskets, get easy layups and transition and get into the free throw line, which he does a lot. But the things I didn't know is, you know what kind of got us back on track and just having those off days and practicing the way we did. You know, we actually had hard practices in March where you know, those are like training camp practice, but we needed it.
And for him to set the tone every single day. You know, a fifteen year ved the guy has been MVP, scoring titles and all that. But for what he you know, brought to our team as far as just every day work, I thought was really good for us. And so that kind of set the tone and helping our young guys out like bones and team man. And so he's been he's been terrific for us. There was Coach Lupo's game, Clippers win in Memphis over the Grizzlies one forty one to one
thirty two. Clippers still in that five spot, they're just behind the Phoenix Suns. And win percentage is the Suns have one less win but also one less loss than the Clippers. Golden State a full game behind the Clippers, and currently the Clippers do have the better division record, which is your second tiebreaker? The Minnesota Timberwolves in that seventh spot, Lakers and the eighth Pelicans in the ninth, OKAC Thunder in the tenth. Morris is in the long
beach, Morris, what's up? Your un Clippers stopped without in Austin. Hey, listen, when the Clippers came back they were down by fifteen points and going into the fourth quarter. It took me a while to move past this. I think that was against Memphis. It didn't they have their full squad with Adam They had Kawai and Paul George. No, no, no, no, no, I'm talking about Memphis. Did Memphis have their full squad when the Clippers came back from fifteen downs going into the fourth which was
the only team in the NBA to do that this year? According to what you were sharing with me, did they have their full squad with him when the Clippers came back from a fifteen point different in the entry and the fourth quarter? You're talking about the game in early Marsh, I think they were still without let's see here, I'm pulling it up right now. No, they did not. They did not have John Morant in that game. Okay, that would make a difference. And I want to say this with you.
The book on Westbrook has changed tonight. The book on Westbrook has changed it used to be. And I've seen this with my own two eyes. They let Westbrook shoot from the top of the key, no problem, go ahead. They would pay him to do that. I don't think they're going to give him that three anymore after what we saw tonight. And I'm gonna leave you with this. The most famous leprechan of all time was a guy near Red Arbat and he once said that it's not who starts a basketball game,
it's who finishes the game. At him, Go Clippers, I'll talk to you to my friends. Clippers finished strong, outscoring Memphis thirty six to twenty seven in the fourth quarter. Russ had nine of his thirty six points in the final period. Here he was post games speaking with Brian Seaman and Jim Jackson on Valley Sports. Great Playing Today. Ross obviously a lot on the line with the Clippers in the Western conference. You know your role has
fluctuated. You were the main guy here tonight. Was that a mindset for you coming into this game? Definitely? Man, I'm I'm super blessed and grateful like I always first and foremost thing to the men a buff for allowing me to go out. Without him, I wouldn't be here, and my mindset never changed. Man, my role may change my mind, don't. We have an unbelievable team with Why and TGI and I know my job changed a little bit, but tonight we did it together this which is great.
Rush Jimmy Jackson, Look, congratulations A little bit for me? Is it that you have that different burst now? Because it seems like the burst you've had in the last week, week and a half, it's like kind of benches rusty, Yeah, where did that come? What's what's going on with It's that time of the year, Jimmy. It's that time of the year. Okay. Man, I'm gonna let people I ain't nowhere. I'm still here. My job just changed a little bit. My job, it's a
team competing. Keep my birst there. You know you're fifteen. I'm still jumping jail. I'm still going man, I'm jealous focusing on the Friday matchup against this team. This is gonna look like a lot of different teams for both sides, for both sides. One thing about this is this is a series. We'd be one seam one time. I gotta come back and beat him again, and they're gonna be ready, and we're gonna make sure we're ready. To a lot of fun to watch to that. Russ, Thank
you, say what you want about Russell Westbrook. Guy has always competed hard each and every night. And I know there are a lot of people that were on the other side of it. Should we get Russell Westbrook? Should we not? Didn't work out with the Lakers, But this is someone who has plays that inspire others out there, and I think that's important for this Clippers team because they haven't had a guy with this much edge to his game
since Patrick Beverley. They've lost some of that. They got it back now with Russ. He's such a competitor. How do you not go hard when he's out there diving for loose balls, pushing the pace. You gotta run with him. He gotta play faster. So it has certainly worked out with the Clippers. The fit, I'm not gonna say anything is hand in glove when it's only sixteen games in, but it's obviously a much better fit with the Los Angeles Clippers. For reasons, we stayed it stated it would be
with they're shooting, with their spacing and just with their locker room. Look at Russ. He's happy, he's playing with joy again, loves the game, and has a bunch of guys who aren't trying to trade him. That must have been difficult to know. He was in all those trade discussions the past year. Now, so he's loose, he's playing free, and he's playing his game. Was the number one option tonight and played like the first ballot Hall of Famer. He will be had thirty six on thirteen of eighteen,
shooting goes five of five from the outside. Clippers wine one thirty two over the Memphis Grizzlies in game one of this two game series. As you just heard it was mentioned Friday, they'll still be in Memphis, taken on the Grizzlies. They'll run it back. Tip time is at five. I'll Clippers countdown for you starting at four. That game will be on the Patriot Am eleven fifty before we get out of here, though we do have casual Katie's Corner. Where's the music? What? I just I didn't think about
it. I was trying to find one for Jake and I just respect yourself, get your music. I mean, come on, it's your second it's your world, all right. Kenny Newton our producer here, everyone, all right. I don't know if there is an answer for this, By the way, hello everyone, But what qualifies what qualifies for small ball? Oh, guys who are out there without us true seven footer or a guy who's even six ten, A bunch of wings, guys around six four to six
eight. That's that's small? Is six eight is small? It's tiny. I order you for eleven basically, I mean compared to that. And the Clippers have a lot of different options and versatility out there. That's one of the strengths of their ball club is that it. Yeah, I mean the background with that was, you know, I told you earlier I watched the new Space Jam and then I was like, uh, and so I decided to watch the old Space Jam and it's like, oh, yeah, cleanse
the palette. Yeah, but it's got a muggsy it's got muggsy and height. He's five three, and I was just like, wow, that's small ball, said on the internet. Even Earl Boykins over there just the Internet told me he was five three. I'm just saying so, I was like, what is small ball fair enough? It's a good question, casual Katie's Corner. Another episode here on Clippers Talk, Katie, Thank you, great work. Tonight, do again on Friday. Sorry, but it's gonna happen
Friday before we get out here. I do want to think the Clippers organization, No Eagle, what a call, Ryan Simon, Ralph Lawler, big Brother, Jake Warner, head engineer, Big Bill Jake, Podcast, Dennis Agostino or statistician to the stars, the callers, the listeners. Clippers one forty one to one thirty two over the Memphis Grizzlies. I do it again on Friday. Until then, I'm Adam Moslins. This has been Clippers Talk,
