Time for a postgame. Look, it's your LA Clippers. This is Clippers Locker Road, brought to you by Cedars Sinai, the official health partner of the LA Clippers, and by Patchonga, official travel casino of the LA Clippers. Breaking down today's action with the pre and post game voice. If you're LA Clippers, They're locking in every game, every night, Adam Osland Clippers hold on in San Antonio. They make it three wins in a row as they are victorious with a one oh nine, one oh two victory over the
Spurs. Welcome into your postgame show. I'm Adam Oslin coming up. Second half, highlight your post game box score, and we'll have Clippers Talk at eight sixty six nine eight seven two five seventy eight sixty six ninety eight seven two five seventy. But first back to your radio voice of the Clippers in Carlo Jimenez. Carlo wasn't necessarily pretty late, but the Clippers got the dub nonetheless, and I thought that jumper from Kawhi Leonard out of a timeout was
huge in the fourth. Yeah, Kawhi Leonard really sad. The tone of that second half. Our Santenstian Richard Wiggins letting me know. In the first half he was three for seven with nine points. In the second half, Adams seven for ten with seventeen I don't know if it was the booze. I don't know if he hears the outside noise, but it felt like all second half, especially to start that third quarter, it's just a different beast
attacking the rim and the Klaw was going to work. Really was able to sink his talents into this game and help the Clippers get over the hump a couple times. San Antonio was charging back into this game, and thankfully the Clippers were able to hang on to the lead. Yeah, thirteen points in the third quarter from Kawhi Leonard to your point, setting that tone to start the second half. Clippers got contributions all over the place. I thought a
beatz Zu Bots was very good in this one. Late in the game, the Clippers went small, they held on and knocked down some pre throws from Russell Westbrook. But once again Daniel Tye was good. But Terrence Man got off the snide and I thought him coming back in for defensive purposes. Had two steals on the ball game, but also contributing offensively in this one. That could get him going and finding a rhythm. Now, yeah, he
was excellent in this one. It really started off with that breakaway dunk, and you thought Terrence came back with a huge file on his face as if to say, Okay, that felt good. I got a field goal under my belt. Let's go back to playing basketball. And his adjustment is just gonna keep happening. And we all know Terrence's gonna figure it out soon for this team. A good win for the Clippers, A mere Coffee was excellent off the bench Adam after Norman Powell had to sit out that second half with
some tightness, so the Clippers got contributions everywhere. It felt like a team win, and they finished this two game road trip. It felt like somewhat of a playoff game late with the way we're going back and forth with two victories, just how you want to draw it up. And now you have a chance to really head into the buzzsaw. You've gotten a couple wins under your belt, the losing streak's over, You're on a winning streak. Can they focus up with these next five games in seven days? Yeah, no
doubt. Not gonna be easy and I like the Clippers having to fight and claw for this one because it can make you more battle to to being in these close games late. Sometimes. Sure, you like an easy one where they blow them out like they did Monday night, but san Antonio was desperate for a victory couldn't get it. But I still like the fact that the Clippers ended up pulling it out the way they did, where they got pushed
at the brink a little bit. And Paul George, by the way, who went about ten minutes I want to say, without a field goal of in game time at one point, knock down two jumpers early in that fourth quarter that were also very clutch. Plus the free throws as we mentioned, Yeah, free throws were big down the stretch. Harden and George and Russell Westbrook all hitting a pair of three throws to push the game from two possessions
to three possessions. I'm interested. One thing that was interesting to me, Adam, I'm sure you'll talk about later is going small late with Wembin Yama on the court, taking Aviza Zubats off and having Russ Terrence man, Kawhi Leonard, and Paul George with James Harden out there The reason I thought it was interesting is because it felt like Zubats was making an impact on the glass.
And I wonder if this was an opportunity where head coach searn lu felt like he had a chance to experiment with that lineup, see what it looked like, give it another look, and see how he wants to play it going forward. But it was one we hadn't seen a lot of And so to finish the game with dank group, I'll be intrigued to what the conversation is postgame, especially with coach louse comments pregame when he talked about heat going
small ball is usually a last resort. He says he doesn't really think it as a legitimate lineup unless he needs to have that lineup in there where he feels like he's just gonna outscore teams down the stretch. Maybe that was the case. But something that was new in this one and a critical part of the ball game, Yeah, that's definitely worth monitoring. So is this so a mere coffee getting ten minutes in this ball game? During significant, meaningful
minutes in that third quarter, he really gave them a jolt offensively. He was a plus eighth out there in his ten minutes diving to the floor for loose balls. I really like the effort premiere Coffee in his first real significant minute so far this year. Yeah, and the championship teams have guys like Kamir who come off the bench after not making an impact for a couple of
days and make a huge impact late in games. And that's big for the Clippers because depth is always a luxury in the NBA, and so when you have a guy like a Mirror when Norm goes down to come in and be valuable on the offensive and especially the defensive end. I thought it was huge for this Clippers team. It got them back in the game. And one thing that impressed me about am here is he was not flustered. I mean, how hard is it to sit out for four straight games, watch your
teammates play. You're one of the first players to get in the gym day of game to get shots up and warm up. Then you got to kind of hang out for a couple of hours while everybody else warms up. But to make an impact in this ballgame was so impressive from Amir Coffee. Huge confidence booster for him, huge confidence booster for anybody who follows this team, and you just love to see that the Clippers have this cornucopia of options on both ends well put. Clippers win one to nine to one oh two in
San Antonio. Three straight victories for the Clippers. As Carlo mentioned, they're coming back home be taking on the Pelicans. Friday night tiptime is at seven thirty. We'll have Clippers countdown for you starting at six thirty. Now, Carlo, I gotta throw it back at you. What are you most thankful for? My friend, one of my most thankful Adams. I'm most thankful to do this with you. Let's go and big brother Jake Warner. Today we have Ben Halk Richard Wiggins hanging out with us. Man. I mean,
we got the best jobs in the world, don't we. We do. Let's do it again on Friday night. Great call my friend. Thank you. I'll see you Friday, Adam. Let's get another one. Let's keep the good times rolling back at the Crip.

Welcome back into your post game show. I'm Ada Moslin. Coming up your final box score. We'll have Clippers talk on am FI seventy LA Sports as well. Eight sixty six nine eight seven two five seventy eight six six nine eight seven two five seventy is
the phone number. Clippers are up fifty four to forty eight after leading by as many as seventeen in the first half. But then there was an interesting situation with coach Craig Popovich going to the microphone and saying, hey, stop booing, and while Kawhi Leonard was at the free throw line, it sounded like this second Pops on the mic, the boon and let these guys play start. I know those last it's not who we are knock off. The
booing really off. Telling the fans to play off Kawhi Leonard to no avail as they would boo Kawhi Leonard even more so. But when he came out in that third quarter, he had a little something extra him. Kawhi Leonard bounce fast to him at the right elbow. He spins, He goes to the rim and a vicious right hand hammer to shoot left angle. Leonard checks
the clock with four tries, A three, hits a three. Kawhi with five street as he silences the booze, Leonard the hot hand steps back against so hand, crosses over free throw line, steps through, flutter up, flutter in Kawhi Leonard with seven by himself. Leonard far wing, Here come the booze pulls up from eighteen and splash Kawhi. Leonard with a bucket underneath. Leonard with a right hand, gets by everyone and is able to finish
a rebound for James. Harden throws out ahead Leonard two handed, a right hand himmer didn't even take a drivel. He took it to the rim. Kawhi. Leonard would go five of six with thirteen points in the third quarter alone. Clippers got up by as many as eighteen, but heading into the fourth it was just eighty two to seventy. Things got tight down the stretch. The Clippers were having a difficult time trying to pull away from this San
Antonio Spurs team that was desperate for a victory. But out of a time out, as I believe it was just a seven point game, Kawhi Leonard would also them through with this big bucket looks for Leonard. The Claw team high twenty four to far outbow one on one with Johnson takes it into the Pate spins over left shoulder, baseline jumper money too. Why Leonard in his
bag? One oh two ninety three That was what two twenty five left and the Clippers would go on as they hit their free throws late to win one O nine to one O two over the San Antonio Spurs. And after losing six in a row, five straight with James Harden, they've now won three straight with the Bearded Wonder and the Clippers are now six and seven on this young season.

Though the defense was good enough for the most part. They were able to hold down the Ford even when San Antonio was making a run late. Clippers, led by as Minnie as eighteen. Kawhi Leonard led them in scoring with twenty six, had seventeen on seven of ten shooting. Of his twenty six points in the second half, Paul George with twenty four, James Harden was sixteen, nine assists, four turnovers, and how about a mere coffee

You wanna talk about
your favorite side, what you're thankful for. It's all good tonight. As the Clippers have won three in a row after losing six in a row. They're coming back home taking on the Pelicans Friday night, a home back to back Pelicans, then Mavericks on Saturday, and then the Denver Nuggets on Monday. So it was a critical pivotal, important victory tonight because the gauntlet is
approaching for the Clippers. What I've been talking about all season, going back to the preseason, going back to the offseason, is how tough this Clippers schedule gets about a month in and they are entering the teeth of it right now. But a nice victory for the Clippers. They didn't play their best. They weren't as focused, it seemed like early on with those eleven turnovers in the first half, some sloppy basketball out there after They had just seven
turnovers period through four quarters. Monday in San Antonio, the Clippers came out in the first quarter and just didn't have that laser focus. Defensively, they were pretty good, but I would say San Antonio was still missing a lot of shots. They won the first quarter of twenty six to fourteen, but they had six turnovers. Now, they didn't lead to any points, but
they were losing possessions because of that. When you're shooting fifty five percent from the field in the first quarter and sixty percent from three, you probably should be up more than twelve. You probably should be up fifteen to twenty. Not easy to get up twenty in a first quarter in twelve minutes. But San Antonio was three for twenty one in the first quarter, and I felt
like the Clippers they let them off the hook a little bit. They didn't take advantage of the fact the Spurs were that poor in the first quarter. And then in the second after the Clippers started fast, as did Paul George. I want to say, he went on his own little nine to zero run and the Clippers were up by seventeen early in the second as he would hit a jumper, a three, another three. He scored eight straight points. So now then he would start to go cold, and the Clippers would.
As a team in that second quarter, they went about five and a half minutes from the seven thirty eight mark to about the two minute mark without scoring a field goal. That is ice cold. That's unbelievable, and I think part of the reason it happened was twofold. First, Paul George was the only guy scoring to start that second quarter. It was all running through him. Yeah, he had a rhythm, but nobody else really did.
And then San Antonio couldn't stop fouling, and I think it took the Clippers out of their offense, out of their flow, and they weren't knocking down free throws twenty two to twenty nine, seventy six percent after they shot almost ninety percent Monday night, and they need to be better there. So once
again self inflicted wounds, turnovers, miss free throws, missed opportunities. But I don't want to say was hack of Clippers, like it was some strategy from Greg Popovich to intentionally foul them to take them out of their offense. But indirectly it did, just the fact that they couldn't defend without fouling,
and then the Clippers just didn't know how to find it again. It was from let me see here and Aviza zubats dunk was seven thirty eight left in the second quarter, all the way till Terrence Man had a one foot dunk at the two fifty three mark. That's how long the Clippers went without a field goal made in the second They were going to the line a lot, they were missing Paul George chart to cool off, and the Clippers offense with
that was out of source at the half. After being up by seventeen in the first half, it was just a lead of fifty four to forty eight, and Kawhi Leonard was being booed, even more so than Monday Night by San Antonio fans who scorned Kawhi left them when he was traded. There was a lot going on with that situation, some bitter feelings, acrimony, and this happened with Greg Popovich of the San Antonio Spurs the only other time, and Carlo Jimenez was wise enough to remember this. I knew Doc Rivers had
got on the mic before for the Clippers. I couldn't remember what the occasion was or why Carlo texted me. It was when he encouraged the crowded Staples Center to give Dirk Novinsky a standing ovation in his final game there and his farewell tour in his final season. Classy moved by Doc Rivers. This was a little bit different, as Greg Popovich was trying to temper the booze coming down on Kawhi Leonard, who was at the free throw line. Listen to
this. Excuse me for a second, Pops on the mic and let these guys plays. I know those last It's not who we are. I'm off the board. I'm telling the fans to way off. Kawhi Leonard didn't work to no avail. In fact, they ramped up the booze and Kawhi airbolt a shot to end a half and the Clippers are just up by six against the San Antonio team that went three for twenty one from the field in the first quarter. But we'll tell you about the second half after this. We're
gonna pause ten seconds for station identification on a seventy LA Sports. This is LA Clippers Basketball AM five to seventy KLAC Los Angeles ninety eight seven KYSR HD two Los Angeles and iHeartRadio station. Well, I don't know if they were booing during halftime what the show? Was a little dog doing tricks or something like that, but Kawhi Leonard may have been fuming in the locker room. Now, Kawhi doesn't show a lot of emotion. He's famous for that.
They call him a robot. Maybe he was recharging, he was switching out into the emotion ship like data in Star Trek. When he got his emotion ship, I don't know. But he came out with the vengeance to start the third quarter, and after a first half where he struggled, to say the least, he was just three of seven from the field for nine points. He would outdo that. In the third quarter alone, he went five
of six and had thirteen points. In the third the Clippers got up by as many as eighteen, and it was a two to seventy heading into the fourth quarter for the Clippers. But something else happened. A mere Coffee, who I have been campaigning for to get minutes Clipper Nation, has been telling me we don't have any wings anymore. We lost Marcus, we lost Roco, we lost batoomb a Mere Coffee still on this team. This is a guy that had carried them and was their best player for a month in January
of twenty twenty two. He's more than earned minutes. He has come through in big comebacks against Philly. He's hit crucial daggers. He can guard multiple positions. He can kind of just fit in offensively in the same way Terrence Man does a good connector knock down a shot here and there doesn't ever really hurt you because he does all the little things and has some of the intangibles.
And two weeks ago, when the Clippers had dropped their first two after the James Harden trade, I said this on Clips and Dip with Chuck Mockler, I hate that. How has that not been talked about? For the hellscape that Clippers Twitter is right now? It's the moment apparently, But this is an actual important issue that I think could be discussed. This is a real this is okay, do we have to start second half bones minutes? Watch? Well? That was something else? Maybe that's crazy bringing up at
him something else. I'm sorry, here we go. That's insane. There's one other thing that's been on my mind, and it's going back to the Lakers game when Norman Powell played like twenty three straight on court minutes, he got the middle of the third un till he fouled out and overtime. Have we just like forgotten or not not caring about a mere coffee anymore? Is
a mere coffee still on the team? Last think he was more than serviceable, and that was a game where they were getting beat up on their defensive end. He could have switched on to multiple guys if you had him out there against the Lakers, and he's a big body, I think fade my ass out. I have been bringing him up and talking about him, and fans were telling me we got bigger issues than that. Well, when you lose three wings and you have one that's more than serviceable, and you're struggling
in that area of having that switchability on the perimeter in guarding guys. A mere Coffee's him and he comes in, gets a layup quickly. At one point he was on the floor getting a steal on San Antonio, making the hustle plays. He ended up in just ten minutes, having four points three boards in that steal, two of three shooting, as he would knock down a jump shot in the fourth. But he was a plus eight in those ten minutes. The reason they got up eighteen and the third was a mere
Coffee was on the floor bringing that energy, bring in that jolt. As Noa Eagle used to say the Folgers Soldier, as Brian Seman would say, a mere coffee. Coffee is for closers. Is an all time call from Brian Seaman when he hit a big shot, He's more than capable of giving this team minutes. And I've been scratching my head wondering they got him on this team friendly deal. He was also almost moved this summer from Malcolm Rock. Didn't it didn't happen. He's still on the team. You lose three
wings how does mere Coffee not play? And to his credit, Coach Loh played him tonight and it was the right time. And I don't know if they win this ball game without him. He helped extend the lead and keep San Antonio at arm's length. His defense, his hustle, and the ability to bring the ball up the court. By the way, give your stars some rest. H mirror has to be in the rotation more. To me, been saying it that clipp was from twelve days ago. The other day
I said it too. And the reason they got him on this team friendly deal wasn't to just not play him or only if there's a ton of injuries on the team. No, they're entering a gauntlet coming up. Guys are gonna need rest. And I think that's what Lou's thinking. Was time to get him in rhythm because he's gonna start playing more. Clippers are about to enter a five and seven stretch. But he was great, Stay ready, so you don't have to get ready. Love him, You're Coffee thankful for
him tonight. All right, quick time out, we'll come back. We'll get to your phone. Calls eight six six nine eight seven two five seventy eight six six nine eighty seven two five seventy. Clippers win by seven in San Antonio, final score one O nine to one to two over the Spurs. Clippers of one three in a row. They're coming back home to take on the Pelicans. Ooh, and then Dallas on Saturday, Pelicans Friday Night, Dallas Saturday Night, and then the Denver Nuggets on Monday. And you
know what season a giving here? I got a pair of tickets to the Clippers game against the Dallas Mavericks in section one to eleven, row thirteen. These are good seats for Saturday's contest at Crypto tip off for that one is a night game. Seven point thirty best caller tonight wins a pair of tickets to go see the Clippers versus Luka, Doncic and Kyrie Irving on Saturday.
More Clippers suck next here on a five to seven Ela Sports Clippers worth three and seven now six and seven after a three game winning streak with a beard in James Harden, he finished with sixteen nine assists. Oh what a beautiful behind the back pick and roll play with the behind the back pass to a vista Zubats to a throwdown on Wemby in the second half on re and Harden got up twelve attempts at the free throw line. We've been on the wrong
end of that so many times when he was with the Houston Rockets. Now he's gonna get those free throw attempts up for the Clippers. Some say it's foubating, Others say it's just crafty, smart basketball and taking advantage of the rule book. Clippers win one on nine to one O two. Welcome back into Clippers talk. I'm out a Mosland. You know what, I'm gonna praise a Mere Coffee a little bit more. Here. Here was me four days ago talking about a mirror as I toot my own horn. This is
what I said. God, I'm old enough to remember when a Mere Coffee signed that new contract. What a bargain it was to get him at that price three years, eleven million or whatever it was. It's not for him to sit on the bench. That doesn't make it a bargain. That makes it kind of worthless. You're not getting your return on that money. Tonight they did fade my ass out. They played them ten minutes. Was a plus eight out there. Finally a Mere Coffee minutes love to see it,
Pam and Temple City. You're on Clippers stop with that a maas and what's up? Thank you Adam. I'm first of what I want to thank God for all of you guys, the Clippers family and everyone there. And I just am so faithful to still be in my home because I was in the preussics of addiction. But I was equally what you were saying about a mirror. I was so happy to hear his name being called tonight, you know,
by Carlo, because it's so rare. And as you said, what's the point of getting a good deal on someone if you don't ulize them. Here people can say we have bigger problems, but the thing of it is is not me. We don't address a problem that's there by giving him being a solution. He was a solution tonight, And that's a great point.
Just because they had other problems doesn't mean a mere coffee can help in some areas on the marsh, which is having another wing still on this team that is reliable and that is staying ready and prepared when his moment is called. And I can't wait for them to get over five hundred and God bless you guys, A wonderful Thanksgiving. I love you guys. Thank you all right, if we love you too, Pam, Happy holidays, Happy Thanksgiving.
Let's go to Morris and Long Beach. Morris, what's up you're on clipper sack with that Amausen? Hey listen, don't tell me that, Kawhi Leonard, don't get emotional. Go check out that four point shot that Hardened hit the other night. Oh yeah, and focus on your boy, Kawhi. Oh I saw the basketball. Yeah, I mean, I said, whoa it man? Looks like he just won one hundred thousand dollars. Old, he just he's got what you call a poker's face. I don't know.
I don't gamble, but they got to think all a poker's face. Right, you don't know what the guy's thinking. You know something's going on, which you do know what he's thinking. That's Kawhi Leonard. I'm gonna share something with you. Do you know? The only one game? Only one game in the lost column. In the lost column, sep rates to six through eleven. This is gonna be a tag year, Adam, Adam,
It's gonna be a tag year. Who would have thought minnesot would be in first place, and I want to say something about the fans boing, I love me some NBA players and then Kawhi and whatnot. But I'm with the fans, man, That's what we do. Adam, we boomed. Oh did you hear? Did you hear? Kawhi? Leonard? After the booze on Monday, he was asked about it, and he said, Hey, they're trying to win out there. I understand it. He didn't take my boy, he didn't have an issue with it, so I'm interested to hear
what he said tonight. Morse, thank you for the phone call. Hey Morris, you want to be in the running for going to the game on Saturday? Absolutely you gon lost my mind? Mind and hold on, hold on, stay on hold for me. Then you're in the running. All right? Got it? Got a pair of tickets to give away Clippers in Dallas on Saturday. Quickly, Lenny and Inglewood. Lenny, what's up here on Clippers talk with Adam? Allisl is this is the first time you've called
in so far this season? Lenny, what's up? Yeah, Adam, I'm glad you would pick that up because I've been paid. Man, I wasn't gonna say nothing. Yeah, man, I've been because I've been, because I've been here before, and give you get excited. But I'm gonna say something. James Harden had the coldest quote of the NBA season when he said, I'm not a system player. I'm a system and I gotta admit, man, I was not a big fan of Russell Westbrook joined the team
last year. But I'm seeing some growth and maturity and he he I'm I'm I'm on his He's on my list now, man, for on my face because I think when he when he decided to step down, I'm nicely fall back and say I'll come off the bench. I just thought that showed for a former MVP player, growth and maturity. Man, he's ready to assume the you know, the mantle man of being, of being that leader. And I think that, uh, you need special things like that from a
special player for a team to do special things. So I'm you know, I'm I'm looking with guided optimism towards Pelicans because Pelicans slappers around like a JV team for the past two years, yep. And we need, we need, we need to get that doll going and get that revenge. And then obviously Luca and Kyrie who's been playing shooting lights out coming and you know, we all know about Denzel, But if we can get two out of those three, we there, we're right there. And I think I think you
were right when you said Harden has to get in game shape. But his passes our phenomenon. Man, that that dude is is next level. And I remember, I think he's two years out of what he was at the nets when he was doing twenty one and ten. So if we can get eighteen nineteen and still ten, we're right there. Man. And Daniel Tice, that's the pick up. But that's the pickup of the other season right so far. Hey, guess who let him in rebounding tonight? Tice with
eleven five offensive boards. He's man, a mobile, big man who's tough and can move. I mean, he's right there, man, Like you know, I know we still need plumbing, but I'm glad. I'm glad they picked up Tys man because he's just what we needed. So Russell falling back hard and stepping up and Tys right there, three great moves, and I think that's that's what you're gonna see moving forward. I appreciate the phone call, Lenny, you want to be in the running for the tickets for
Saturday against Dallas. You know I do. Hold on, then hold on, then I appreciate you. It's good to hear from Lenny. Tys had an early offensive rebound, one of his five. He had a floater at the end of the first quarter off a really nice pass from Russ. He had a floater in the fourth quarter and then a layup off a nice Russ feet. Tyson's fit like a glove so far. Speaking of gloves, Kawhi's
got some big ones. Let's hear from him postgame after he led the Clippers with twenty six and amidst the booze that were going on back in San Antonio. It just brought out the fire and that dog Kawhi Leonard in the second half. Let's set it over to Patrick with Kawhi Okay, thank you very much, Kawhi. Third straight win. It was tough, give them some credit, but you guys, hang on, what's your takeaway? You know that Spurs are always going to fight. They don't give up. They push
it till they end at a fourth quarter. And I mean it was a good win for us to test us a little bit down the stretch a second quarter, something happened that just doesn't happen in sports. When your former coach Papovich addressed the crowd to just stop booing, you just had a long embrace. What were you thinking at the time when that happened. I was focused. I didn't know if it was him or not. I was at the free throw line. But you know, like you said, they're a very
classy organization and I'm pretty sure he wants to keep it that way. Lastly, you guys have won three in a row. What makes you think that your team right now has starting to gel it? Can maybe, you know, rattle off a nice win streak just winning winning games. I mean, winning doesn't always show you that you're getting better. But we're happy that we're getting these wins. And we still got a lot to improve on that you see down the stretch making carell turnovers and you know not just get in our
spots. Thanks for the time and happy Thanks there was Kawhi Leonard. I like we said there, winning doesn't always tell you that you're getting better. They still had some mistakes. There was a turnover with about two minutes left in the fourth quarter. By Russell Westbrook looking for Paul George. That stuff has to be cleaned up. But Kawhi understands the fans where they're coming from.
But also talking about San Antonio being a classy organization. You like that, that's the way to handle it. And he was so focused with the free throw line. Uh, he didn't even know if it was coach Pop or somebody else. He went four for four from the charity stripe. More Clippers coming up here on a M five seventy, LA sports. We just sitting here, try to win, trying not to sin. Clippers winning San Antonio one oh nine to one O two and Kawhi Leonard's old stomping grounds.
As they booed him, they were raining upon him as he was raining down threes and tough jumpers. Especially in that third quarter second half, Kawhi had seventeen of his twenty six on seven of ten shooting, and the Clippers win by seven in San Antonio. They've won three in a row. Mike and La, you're on Clippers stock with that, amaz On. What's up? Hey? I just want to say, I think these next three games I can't over overestimate just how important they are you know, I mean the last
the last three games have been great. Obviously, Houston is playing really well, and San Antonio is tough to beat any team, you know, twice. But it's what. It's New Orleans, Denver and Dallas, New Orleans, Dallas, Denver, New Orleans, Dallas on a back to back Friday, Saturday, Denver Monday. If we can go two and one and they're back to five hundred, those three games and they're back to five hundred,
I will I will be thrilled. That would that would convince me. The next three games, I guess I think are so important to proving that how far we've come and how far we're going. I just I can't overstate it enough. All right, Mike, I appreciate the phone call. I'm with you. You're in the running for the tickets as well. Stay on hold for me, Jose and Southgate. Jose, what's up? You're on clipper
stock without a mauza. Adam? All right, Adam, since we're doing it, go ahead and run the go ahead and run the cliff for me, our cliffs and the Carl Tart. You my message saying, oh someone say a mere coffee should start? Oh no, I'm just saying, Okay, look, I'm thankful for a mere coffee. Well thanks, thanks for my mama, but no, a mere coffee. Terrence Man and Zubac they've been there. They see they they've been there is a lou Williams is Montress
Harro. They've been there when we're up three to one. They see how it is at the end of the season where it's like we're there, boy, we're there. So that's why a mere coffee is ready to come in. That's why I said that. But I'm just thinking, you want to run back all these clips, but three in a row, it makes sense why it's time. Everybody's been talking about racking up the wins because they knew they were coming. We just got to rack them up once. Not in
us happy things giving. I'm gonna be all camping for the weekend, so go ahead and enjoy that game. Adham Cardinals rested off Playford. All right, so you're camping, so you're not in the running, but we appreciate the phone call all the same. Jose, we'll take a quick time out. We'll come back from with Chuck Mockler from Clips and Dip already played some clips from the show over the past couple of weeks and me talking about a
mere coffee. Oh didn't see this earlier, Norin Palll does have a groin injury, he smiled post games, said he'd be good on his way out of the arena. He dealt with groin soreness to begin the season. That came from Andrew Grid for the LA Times. He joined me pregame. Clippers win one O nine to one O two in San Antonio over the Spurs. Chuck Mockler from Clips and Dip coming up next right here on five seven LA Sports. They want to bring a banner with them to the into it.
Don more LA Clippers basketball on the LA Clippers Audio Network. Clippers win one on nine to one on two and San Antonio over the Spurs on a night where Great Popovich she got on the PA mic told San Antonio Spurs fans to stop booing as Kawhi Leonard was at the free throw line. More from Kawhi postgame on pop doing that, he said, quote, I guess he was aiming it toward me, as people told me after the game. At the time, I was just in the moment trying to knock down my free throws
he did. He also elaborated talking about Spurs fans, quote one of the best fans in the league. They're very competitive, and once I step on this basketball court out here, they show that they're going to be for the other side. When I'm on the streets or going into restaurants, they show love. So it is what it is. I like classy all round. I don't have a problem with the fans doing that. If Pop does,
more power to them. He's a legend there. They didn't exactly take heat or listen to what he said, but uh, it was an interesting night. Speaking of now, we got Chuck Mockler here on Clippers Talk. Chuck don't have a lot of time quickly, what did you think about the situation with Greg Popovitch trying to take control of the crowd. It was a little surprising, I guess I didn't think. I'm wondering if you maybe heard something in the crowd that wasn't a boo that made him do that, because it
was a little I mean, unprecedent isn't the right word. But I think everyone probably the last time they remember their coach getting on the PA with Doc doing it for Dirk in a much different scenario. So, I mean, I'm not sure we'll see this happen again ever maybe, but I guess shout out to Papovich. It just was a little confusing, and they really didn't listen to him, despite him, you know, having the status that he does. But yeah, I don't know a bit of a I guess that's
what happens the night before Thanksgiving when you play an NBA game. People a little angry right now. They're probably, uh, you know, consuming less calories the day before the big feast. I'm doing some of that right now. Is we're getting together me, you and Will Updyke. We're friends on and off the microphones. Norman Pale suffered a groin injury, it sounds like, and that was one of the main reasons that a Mere Coffee got some run out there. I for one, am not surprised with how well a
Mere Coffee played. It was just good to see him out there on the court. This is somebody that can contribute for this team. But a plus eight in those ten minutes. What'd you see from Amre? I mean, he saw all the hustle stuff you want to see from someone who maybe wants to take or other people want him to take some of PJ. Tucker's minutes or something like that. The efficiency was phenomenal. You know, he's not
going to shoot sixty six percent all the time. But he dove on the floor to get that steel, which didn't credit him with the steel, which I thought, wait, never mind, sorry they did, which I mean, he's doing exactly what you need a guy at that spot in the lineup to do, which is try and make something out of a little bit of a sliver of space something like that. And it was awesome to see. He had, you know, a rough offseason, a bit of a weird
Clippers career in general for Amir, not through any faultles his own. He's played well for the most part when called upon, but good stuff. And I think most fans might have been surprised with norm going out that Bones didn't come in. But I'm wondering if that's because of what we've seen maybe from PJ. Tucker in some of the deficiencies, you know, offensively on the wing slot, which is why maybe Ty went with the bigger a mere coffee
than Bones. But who knows what's gonna happen with that. It doesn't sound like Norman's too beat up from this groin injury. But I mean, hey, if anything, Amir made the case for more minutes, and I think most people want that at this point. Compared to Tucker out there, I thought he was the first guy correct me if I'm wrong, but coming off the bench in the third quarter. And it was interesting because I watched the
minutes with PJ. Tucker and Aviza Zubots. I believe there were a minus one or a minus two in their minutes together, which is actually a big improvement over what we have seen that du Yeah, that duo in the front court had been bleeding points for a while now, so yeah, it's an interesting wrinkle worth monitoring seeing if Emir continues to get minutes. He is a
wing on this Clippers team. Still, that just seems to be the forgotten man at times, speaking of Big Zoo, that Terrence Man or excuse me, the James Harden behind the back pass to him and the pick and roll was unbelievable to beat to Zubots Duncan on Wemby. But James Harden, you know, nine assists for turnovers, sixteen points, knock down some free throws eventually late, but the Clippers overall. One of the talking points coming out
of this one is they just have to close better both halves. They didn't exactly close in style. Any concern from you on that front, I don't think so. I think it's hard to remember that we're still only you know, a few games with this new starting lineup and things like that, so Ty, we were just stillry to figure out the closing lineups. We saw him swatch out, swap out terrence or swap in terrence for rough late. So I'm not super worried about it. I know people joke quote unquote,
you know, season starts an hour or something like that. The Clippers still have a whole addignusus out of when it comes to the schedule with a tough or with their record with a tough upcoming schedule. But there's no better way to figure out how to close than what the Clippers have on their plate after Thanksgiving. So I hope it gets figured out soon, but we hope it's
figured out at the right time. To the most part, quickly give me some intel on your favorite side dish so I know what to go after first before it's gone tomorrow. My favorite side dish is a mashed potatoes and gravy. I don't think there's a better side distion than that. Yeah, that's that's my go to. Okay, that's strong green bean cast roles. Where I'll be at, I'll bring the salad. It'll be good to see you and will Updyke. I am thankful for you guys in the relationship. We've
mended off the podcast as well. It's been a great year with clips and Dip. My friend, thanks for doing this night. Absolutely and it came out after a win. Lot of surprise. I thought it was gonna be will I really did fooled me again. Clippers win tonight one O nine to one O two in San Antonio over the Spurs. Before we get out of
