Take the show with you anywhere you are and get the podcast. I mean, iHeart radio while and now your host. He makes everything happen. Adam Mosley hashtag must win man with two ends at
the end. This Terrence Man gets things started in the third quarter and the Clippers go on to win Game three here at Staples Center by a final score of one oh six to ninety two. Welcome in the Clippers Talk. I'm Adam Moslin. Eight seven seven five to zero eleven fifty eight seven seven five two zero eleven fifty is the phone number coming up on the show. We got postgame audio from Tylo and the players will get to your phone calls.
But I just ran the numbers on something because Noah Eagle and I were talking about it postgames. Just how well the Clippers played defensively. They held the Sons to twenty one points in the first quarter, twenty seven points in the second quarter. That was their high. This potent Sun's offense was held to twenty one points in the third quarter and twenty three in the fourth quarter,
and they went sixteen of forty nine from the field. In the second half, they shot just thirty two percent, and after the Clippers at one point had missed fourteen straight three pointers, they would hit some crucial ones in the second half. They started off the game three of seventeen through the first twenty four minutes, but they would end up hitting nine three pointers in the second half. They finished twelve of thirty four, but there were some big time
shots from Reggie Jackson. Who else Action Jackson, who has played like an outright superstar, has played like an All star at least you could say in these playoffs, but when it matters most, he's absolutely played like a super star. He is at the top when it comes to playoff fourth quarter scoring along with PG thirteen, who I want to say had seven of his twenty seven points in the fourth quarter, including well in the third quarter in absolute
play to give them momentum. He did it twice in this game to end the second where the Clippers were teetering on having a really poor end to the first half, Paul George returned and he stabilized them let's think back to what happened at the end of game two. He missed two critical free throws. It didn't carry over into this game. They flushed it. They said afterwards
that they were going to let that game go. Coach lou said during the pregame he called a couple of guys as soon as they landed back in Los Angeles, and he told them, let it go. We gotta move on next game up mentality as well as the next man up mentality. But Paul
George at the end of the second quarter generated ten points. Eight he scored, and then another beautiful wrap around passed to Visa Zubats, who was huge in this game, who had a big throwdown to end the second when they were down by six, and they were down by just two after they took the Phoenix Suns best shot going into the half, the Clippers were down forty eight to forty six, and then coming out in that third quarter, he was my player to watch because well, really what he did in that game
six the last time the Clippers were here at Staples Center when they closed out the Utah Jazz, and Terrence Man absolutely led them in that game with thirty nine points and I wondered what the crowd could do to him tonight, if it could help fuel this Clippers team and Clipper Nation. You came through once again. Terrence Man had ten points in the third quarter, but it was
the way he was getting them, just driving and getting downhill. He's got this move where he gets to the basket, you think he's in trouble, he uses his PIVO and he finds a way to bank in a layup over multiple players. We saw it against the Utah Jazz. We saw it tonight against the Phoenix Suns. But I opened the show saying, must win Man, because it just feels like there's something to Terrence Man when they need him
most. After he had a poor play, a blunder at the end of that game five here at Staples Center against the Dallas Mavericks way back in the first round, where he didn't take a layup. Well, since then, he's been exactly who he thought he was, a big time player when the spotlight is on him, and he took over in that third quarter early. Then it was PG thirteen who at ten of his twenty seven points in the third quarter, including a three pointer he banked in from half court. Noah
Eagle had it on the call. He said it. He practices this to end every shooter round or every pregame warm up he does. He practices that shot. It wasn't luck. It wasn't by happenstands. It was by design from Paul George who first let the ball roll out with one point one seconds left. I believe it was. And the clock didn't start until he picked it up. And he got a good enough look, and you could tell right away, especially if you were here at Staples Center. It looked online
and sure enough it would fall for him. But for PG thirteen to come back the way he did tonight with fifteen rebounds, huge rebounds in traffic. He's been doing this throughout the entire this entire playoff run. He's been playing amongst the trees. I know he's six nine, but he's been getting rebounds over DeAndre Jordan, or excuse me, DeAndre Aiden. DeAndre Jordan no longer with your Los Angeles Clippers, of course, but over DeAndre Aiden, over
Rudy Gobert, over Boban Marianovitch, over Chris STAPs Porzingis. He's given ty Lou the ability for this team to go small and even though a Vizza Zoobots is starting to really make his imprint in these playoffs. In this series as he plays thirty two minutes a night after playing thirty four in game two, Paul George has been fantastic crashing the boards but finishes with twenty seven fifteen and
eight assists. Did have six turnovers a couple of those head scratchers he seems to have every game, but with that high usage rating, it's going to happen. He's not used to doing this much playmaking, but it's something they've been working on all season long, and he had some beautiful passes to vitza zoo boss for throwdowns where he almost was doing his best CP three impersonation when the defense went after him and doubled him. He found the open man over
and over again, and sometimes yes it was Terrence Man. One of those turnovers he had was the Terrence Man on a runout who was trying to get a quick bucket in transition in the third quarter. Two of those happened actually Reggie Jackson, I believe, was trying to find him for an alley was just a little bit too high. But Terrence Man, well, he can get up some. He's got those pogo sticks. Just couldn't get to that
one. But they have twenty of the Clippers thirty four points in that third quarter, and then in the fourth Reggie Jackson came up, so Clutch had ten of his twenty three points there. Yes, he had twenty three. He's averaging now nineteen points per game in the playoffs and doing it on fifty forty ninety splits. He has played like an absolute all star. Credit Reggie Jackson. Credit head coach chlu who inserted him back into the starting lineup in
Game three when they were down zero two to the Dallas Mavericks. That has changed everything for this Clippers team as well. But he hit two big time three pointers in the fourth quarter, got into transition for a tough layup. But there was a pivotal point where I think this probably was the play of the game. At the seven thirteen mark, the Clippers were up eighty nine to eighty three after Devin Booker hit a layup and he struggled mightily, but
he started to attack, He started to go to the basket. Still just finished five of twenty one after going five of sixteen in Game two. I don't know if the mask is bothering him, but I'm gonna credit the defense by the Clippers. Patrick Beverly was reinserted into the game at about the seven minute mark and the Clippers desperately needed a stop. Paul George just had a
turnover where nobody was in the vicinity for this one. Patrick Beverley comes in and he strips Devin Booker, immediately puts up the number one finger like the Kimbey Matombo, which he means first team All defense by putting that up, and Reggie Jackson ends up getting in transition for that layup. And then it was Reggie Jackson hitting a three pointer to put them back up ninety four to eighty three. So they go from being up just six at eighty nine to
eighty three. A minute later, they're backup eleven. They led by as many as eighteen. They go on to win by fourteen with a final score of one oh six to ninety two. And I said this on Twitter, but I don't know if we I don't know if I was as confident in Patrick Beverley looking like Patrick Beverley again, with all the injuries he's had the past couple of seasons, but certainly this year where he missed almost half the
season and Reggie Jackson became their de factos starting point guard. But in the playoffs, going back to last round, after he didn't play much against Lukadanchich, who's just too big and strong, he did wonders against Donovan Mitchell, holding him to twenty eight percent from the field when he was guarded by Pat Bev and he's doing the same thing now against Devin Booker. He's never looked
better. He has turned this playoff run around. Really when he came in and started playing bigger minutes in Game three against the Utah Jazz, that was critical for the Clippers. That's when things started to turn back in their favor. But Patrick Beverley here at home, he and Terrence Man just continue to egg on the crowd. Clipper Nation was on top of the Phoenix Suns.
They made their voices heard. And I think tonight, Clippers fans, you made a huge impact here at Staples Center as the Clippers win Game three when they're down OZ two once again, they win one oh six to ninety two. And Noah Eagle and I were talking about this, but you think about it the Phoenix Suns had won nine straight games. The last time they lost was May twenty seven. That was here at Staples Center in Game three against the Los Angeles Lakers. That was the last time the Suns had lost in
the playoffs. They had one nine straight, and you just wonder if doubt could be creeping in, if they're thinking, oh, no, this Clippers team is going to do it to us now. They came back down O two against Dallas, they came back down O two against the Utah Jazz, and we haven't lost in almost a month. This was obviously a critical win. They had to have it. You can't go down three games and none.
No team has come back from that deficit before. But the way it happened, defensively putting the clamps clamp City was here tonight on the Phoenix Suns. The way they did this Clippers team, even without Kawhi Leonard, even without serge of Baka, they continue to play with hart and hustle and who do we know that's at the forefront of that but Patrick Beverley. But with him and Terrence Man, it's double trouble out there. They both provide some
of that energy. But Clipper Nation you did the same tonight here at Staples Center eight seven seven five two zero eleven fifty eight seven seven five two zero eleven fifty. Before we break here, let's go to Morris in Long Beach, Morris, what's up? Y'ar? On Clipper's dock without a mosslin? I am the name. The movie is gonna be called the Chiropractors the Los Angeles Clippers. You figure out who's gonna play your role. Uh, and of course Tyrone lose the Coro pactor. This guy just fixes it, Okay.
I mean, whatever the situation is, he gonna figure out a way. I mean this, wait a minute now. I know about luck, but this is gonna beyond luck. This is gonna beyond luck. This guy's a damn genius. Straight up. I don't know how they won this game. I watched the game. It was the time when the Clippers miss thirteen straight threes. You lost it all. Know they don't lose their game. They play some stellar defense. And you're right, Patrick Beverley, you don't
lost his mind when it comes to defense. Here's the first defensive first team on defense, and watch this. Watch this. If you want to get people excited, do a throw down, slam dunk right, everybody get crazy behind us, So I'm for a slam dunk right. Let Pat Beverley's steal the ball from somebody. It excites the whole team. Everybody gets excited, and then he's hitting those three spot up threes. I'm gonna tell you something.
The name of the movie is called The Chiropractors Time Round because if the guy's fixing everything, I don't know how he does it. I don't know how he does it. And good luck in the next game because I don't know how he does it. Good Morrison long beats there eight seven seven five two zero eleven fifty eight seven seven five two zero eleven fifty. Just go back to when the Clippers were down zero two to Dallas in the first round.
What were people saying? I guess it's not going to be much different. That should have kept Doc Rivers. Look at what coach Lou has done, the adjustments he has made, They've all worked to perfection. He's not afraid to play anybody, start anybody. He just pushes the right buttons at the right times, and he puts guys in a position to be successful out there. The Clippers have gotten on the board in the Western Conference Finals.
It is their first win ever in the Western Conference Finals, and they do so in their first home game in the Western Conference Finals here at Staples Center. They defeat the Phoenix Suns by a score one oh six to ninety two. Coming up next, we'll get back to your phone calls eight seven, seven, five two zero eleven fifty and you'll hear from the chiropractor as Noah Eagle named head coach tlu More clipperstock live from Staples Center. I'm out of
Oslin and you're listening to the Patriot Am eleven. Mama goes that, man, how are you feeling about it? Now? The home of the La Clippers and the Western Conference Finals. This is LA Clippers playoff basketball. As the two men bounce quickly for George gets it about sixty feet away. George to the full court logo, puts it up, puts it in. Paul George up the window. He does it every pregame, makes one of those before the game, and it all pays off. As George goes class to
finish the third Paul George at Staples Center. Everybody here on their feet with that ending to the third quarter, but there's Noah Eagle just said at that half chord shot, and the Clippers go on to win Game three thanks the threes like that, they win one O six to ninety two here in the Western Conference Finals over the Phoenix Suns. Clippers still down two games to one, but they have been here before. They don't panic, They stay Reggie,
and they stay steady. Reggie Jackson said after Game two, it was almost like he was annoyed that the media was asking him questions about being down zero two again. He was like, Yeah, we've been here, We're
good, We're okay. But to respond like this after the way they lost Game two, with the deflating DeAndre eighton put back jam on the inbounds pass by Jay Crowder, who would foul out in this game, and with PG thirteen missing those two free throws against the Phoenix Suns team that had not lost in over a month, to beat them by fourteen and really control this game
in the second half with their defense. What a win? Clipper Nation eight seven seven five two zero eleven fifty eight seven seven five two zero eleven fifty is the phone number. Let's go to Caleb in Ohio. Caleb, What's up. You're on Clippers stop without amazin? How you doing? Hi? Man? Oh, I'm good. I'm a Staples Center Love and life. What's up with you in Ohio? Oh? It's beautiful weather. But anyway, I'm still confident. I've spoke to you at the end of the last
series. I've said that they're gonna pull this off, and I still have that confidence that they're gonna get this done. I just like how taylu he let the first two games fly to get to know the Phoenix Suns. We're gonna win this series. I'm a kid, so Clippers, how can you not have confidence with this team? They just did it twice before. Nobody had done that. If they do it again, I mean talk about team of destiny, but this Phoenix Suns team, I think they feel they got
some of that same magic. They've won nine straight games coming into Game three tonight, and they had been playing great. CP three returns. He struggled. He looked a little bit out of rhythm. He still had twelve assists to just two turnovers, but he was five of nineteen from the field, and the MIDI just wasn't there for him like it normally. Is it wasn't that automatic. And I do want to credit the Clippers defensively. They were
rotating perfectly. They were throwing multiple guys at he and Devin Booker, including a Vizza Zoo Bots who I don't think CP three got him once when he pulled him out to the perimeter and got that mismatch didn't happen. Big Zoo was unbelievable tonight. He had seven and seven after the first quarter. He was so active defensively and on the boards, and it looked like maybe with the way things ended in Game two with DeAndre eight and having that throw down
over him to win it, he took it to heart. He took it as a challenge. We've seen that before from Big Zoo, and he absolutely responded. Tonight, DeAndre Aden had eighteen and nine. He had ten of those points in the first quarter, but not getting to double digits on the boards and the Clippers winning the rebounding battle by eight tonight thanks to sixteen from a Vizza Zoo Boss was six of them being offensive rebounds. He led them in the plus minus category. Who was a plus twenty eight. Big Zoo
came through. Let's go to Tagus and Walnut Tagus, you're on Clippers stock without in Austin. He had did that third quarter of Terrence Mann kind of fire up the crowd like he did Game six of Utah. Oh it was wild here, Staples, Censor was absolutely rocking. It felt very similar, right, right, That's that's what that's feeling. It got because he energized them when things were kind of looking a little down. But when I looked at this game, I'm thinking that it seemed like, yeah, Chris,
Paul and Booker, they're not going to shoot this poorly next game. But it's not like the Clippers really shot the ball well either, and they had a lot of open looks. And I think also in that second quarter and when they when Tyler put Rondo and I felt like that six minutes was really brutal for the Clippers. They couldn't get anything going. He had turnovers. And I know what he's trying to do because when Reggie and Paul Georgia out
of the games, he's trying to find another playmaker. But for some reason, it's just not working. So do you think next game that he might shortest minutes if it goes the same way, and maybe those minutes end up going to man, Reggie Jackson or Luke Konnard because Luke Kennard right now, he's ready to shoot the ball. And it's so nice to see him playing with this confidence because he feels like he's the best shooter out there right now.
But what are your thoughts at him? I appreciate the phone call, tageous Jon Rondo, call it what it is. He's been in a funk. He was so good for them in the regular season, but for whatever reason, he's been struggling mightily here in the playoffs. And if the Clippers had lost this game, and I do think Paul George got them back on track when he re entered the game late in the second quarter, but Jen Rondo had three turnovers during that stretch you're talking about where Phoenix had that six
point lead all of a sudden. He just hasn't looked like himself. And I'm not sure why, because he's been one of the best playoff performers. We've seen it. We just saw it six months ago in the NBA Finals, back in the bubble. But I do think there's a method to the madness from the mad scientist that is head coach tlu because they're down so many guys right now. They could really use Jen Rondo if he could find his rhythm, if he could get back and sync with this team and be that
orchestrator out there on the floor. We said this about Patrick Beverley, but it would feel like a postseason pick up all of a sudden. But he struggled in the second He ended up playing, uh, just seven minutes. That was the only stretch he was out there. He didn't get back out there in the second half and had three turnovers and they led to seven points a quick seven. They were live turnovers and Phoenix absolutely took advantage of it.
All right, let's hear from the head coach t Lou We'll get back to your phone calls, Jeff, Sean Marvin. We'll get to you at eight seven seven five two zero eleven fifty eight seven seven five two zero eleven fifty. We're taking you to the top of the hour at ten o'clock. But here was coach Loop post game after the Clippers win Game three one oh six and ninety two here at Staples Center. It is there something that keeps
happening before that. I'm like on the text message Chaine, what keeps happening. I don't know, I don't like it, I'll tell you that. But you know we've been a resilient team all season, all your loan. You know, first one get creds to Marcus Morrise. You know he was hurt. You know, I didn't know he was gonna be able to go tonight, and it gave us all he had, you know, two victories you know down the stretch, which we needed. But like just a total
team effort. You know, our guys just keep grinding and keep fighting. You know, we know our backs against the wall too, but we never give in. I mean, the job packed every been doing, you know,
it's been, you know, tremendous. I thought Zoe was really good tonight, you know, Reggie, you know, down the stretch PG through the first three quarters, and he got tired, but you know we had to play him the whole second half, you know, so I just thought, you know, a halftime, we challenged the guys move to basketball and make the right play. I thought we just drivel too much in the first half, and the second half I thought were going did a good job of
sharing the basketball, moving it and getting guys over the shots. Thanks for the next question from from eating until you I go into Ramona, go ahead, Ramona, Hey Todd, what you know when you guys went out and got Reggie Jackson, he was I think he's one of the last people added to this roster. What did you expect he was gonna be able to give
you and compared to what he's actually been able to give you. Well, come into the season, when we first signed our coaching staff, we talked about, you know, him potentially being a starter because of how we wanted to play and you know, getting PG and Kawhi, you know, the ball in their spots and so, you know, unfortunately Pat Betley got hurt
a few times this season and Reggie became a starter. He did a great job, and you know, our numbers with him as a starter was you know, all the charts, you know, as well as a pat as well, but offensively we really took off. So you know, he's been great. You know, so as soon as he stepped into that role and he made it easier for PG, made it easier for Kauhi, we really started playing, you know, a great offense, having a great offense,
and just never stopped from there. So I'm just happy for him. You know, he had a heck of a year just to keep pushing. That's a sting wine, Chris shooting wine. They never ever felt like he Regrythm. That's obviously they changed one. I think I'm starting with Pat and Zoo. I think, you know, really help out defensive intensity, you know PG have him score and make the place for our team. I think, you know, without him having to guard Booker takes a lot of pressure off
of him offensively. Pat, Billian and Zoo together you know, that combination is believing one. Like I said, past, the best Vivy Challenge guy in the game, there's gonna block your shoper behind the contest from behind and make it hard on you. He gets into the ball. You know, he's physical, and I just think making that change with him and Zoo. You know, Zoo at the rim with the verticality and Pat to be able
to protect him on the pull up jump shot. So that's been a big change in the Bigges, part to our defense and part from the first round
parts the second rod you talk about forgot to accept the roles fifty. I mean, you, Andrew's all about winning and those guys are winners and you know, to be two starters and not play at all the Dallas series the last I think four games, five games, and then come into the Utah series and zoo and not play much, you know, because it's going small because of Gobert and Pat you know, the job of the on Donovan Mitchell, you know, and now we need both of those guys come back and
start again. They've been phenomenal, so you know, that's what winners do, and they want to win and whatever it takes, they're gonna do that. So I'm just happy for those guys to finally get their Mommy, I love. I was gonna said so with this before the game about team joking about you, Bill Belichick and adjustments and whatnot. I mean, there's some proxinity there, but when you hear that, the team will buy into what you're selling as far as adjustments, and then I'm applying to effectively, like
how does that make you feel when it works someone? And even when it doesn't work well. First of all, I got a lot of respect for Belichick. I'm nowhere near him. Six super Bowls and by the best coach ever you know football, you know, in NFL history, But it means a lot, just to you know, just for those guys who trust me to understand that whatever I'm doing is the best for the team, you know, not for me, and I just want to win, and you know,
making adjustments, you know, sometimes it's tough because adjustice me. Some guys can't play, you know, some guys play more. And you gotta be able to accept that. And that's the biggest thingment You have the communication with your team all year long and just talk about one common goal and that's winning. And all of our guys on the board, you know, so you know, I think for how to make an adjustment, to try to
do the right thing, you know. But these guys that won't have to go out and execute, they'd been doing a great job with that so far. There was Coach lou post game after the Clippers win Game three here at Staples Center, one of six to ninety two. Listen to this stat, Coach TLU when being down O two in a series is four and two. He's still won four of them, just lost two. The rest of the
coaches in the history of the NBA are twenty and two ninety nine. In that scenario, the adjustments work, and he started there talking about Reggie Jackson and just how good he's been for this team all season and he wasn't even with them to start training camp. And I've said, this guy looks like an All Star in the playoffs, he's been that good for them. Well,
he just had his seventh twenty plus point game of these playoffs. The other seven players to do that PG thirteen Drey Young, Kevin Durant, Janison and and Kumbo Kawhi, Leonard Tobias, Harris Donovan, Mitchell, Devin Booker, Joel Embiide, Nicola Yokich, and Chris Middleton. There's only twelve guys like and Reggie Jackson. As my friend Lucas hand put it, he is one of them. It is incredible the efficiency with his offense here in the
playoffs and the big shots he's been able to make. And again, it was that Patrick Beverly steal on Devin Booker with about six and a half minutes left that led to a layup in transition for Reggie Jackson. I think it was the biggest play of the game because things were teetering back in the favor of the Phoenix Suns, but the Clippers would go on to win let's go to Sean and Inglewood. Sean, you're on Clippers stop without him awft,
Hello to my friend and wonderful Clippers win. I want to first of all say Patrick Beverly was the MVP of the game because you can put Beverly on Booker and now you don't have to double teams so much. And so people were saying that Booker wasn't shooting well, but it was because of the defense. Also, then you had Zubach coming out to check Chris Paul, and Chris Paul wasn't really looking forward to shooting over Zubach. He bothered Chris Paul
just enough so Chris would miss. That was also good defense. And I just want to say Paris Man, of course he's I got a nickname for Terris Man. I'm gonna call him Motor because he just keeps going and going, and he actually makes the Clippers play faster, and so the compensates a little bit for maybe the lack of not having Kawhi Leonard because now you're playing faster, you're getting your shot earlier in the break, and you're getting a
good look every time down. So anyway, good good win for the Clippers. Good decense, and everybody talks about how poorly Phoenix shot. Just think about the Clippers was swelve with thirty six and three pointers. That's thirty three percent. They averaged forty five to fifty percent on the three. So basically they could have had six or seven more threes go down this game. And one other things Utah, the first two games were close and then the Clippers
start blowing them out. Actually this this series should be three old Clippers because both of those games the Clippers could have won and seenis and they were very close games and then they blew them out today. So watch out. As I said before, Clippers is six John and Inglewood thank you. Eight seven, seven, five two zero eleven fifty is the phone number. Terrence Man provides something this team needs, which is getting downhill as you mentioned there,
getting quick buckets. But he out muscles guys at the rim. I mean we saw it with Rudy Gobert. No Eagles talked about him being fearless. That throwdown he had on Rudy in Game five in Utah. That could be one of those plays you look back upon during this Clippers run and remember forever sand lost style for ever. All right, We'll take a break. We're not going till four ever to night forever, just until ten pm. We'll
get back to your phone calls next year. On Clippers stock eight seven seven five two zero eleven fifty eight seven seven five two zero eleven fifty What a man, What a man, What a mighty man. That's Terrence Man. You're listening to Clipper stock from Staples Center after they win Game three by fourteen. They're back in this series. This is the Patriot Am eleven fifty boy ever there the LA Clippers and the Phoenix Suns. This team has those championship
ingredients. This is LA Clippers Western Conference Finals. Basketball hope puts your right to let flip to the head. It's supouts running your rim to rim, visit all the way up pill with a rebound on the footback. He's doing it again at Staples Center. Terrence Man electric find the crowd holding his chest up to ten points and the Clippers lead fifty six to fifty three. Right
place, right time. Terrence Man had two offensive rebounds, had ten of his twelve points in that third quarter was the spark of a twenty one to three run by your Los Angeles Clippers. As they would go on to win by fourteen. Here at Staples end Game three with a final score of one oh six to ninety two over the Phoenix Suns. We'll welcome back into Clippers
stock. I'm at a maslin eight seven seven five two zero eleven fifty eight seven seven five two zero eleven fifty in speaking to that third quarter and Terrence Man, my friend Law Murray from the Athletics, just put this out. The Suns had a fifty three to fifty lead with ten minutes left in the third quarter. The Clippers went on a ten o run broken by a CP three three, then in an eleven oh run. After that, there's your
twenty one to three run. And during that seven minute stretch, the Suns had zero assists, five turnovers, missed nine of ten shots, and Terrence Man had more buckets than they had points four to just three points for the Suns during that seven minute stretch in the third quarters. Win Game three, they're still down two games to one. Game four is coming back to Staples Center Saturday night. Tip time is that six pm. Just like tonight,
we'll off Clipper's countdown four you starting at five pm. Let's go to Marvin in downtown Los Angeles. Marvin, what's up here on Clippers stuff? Without a muslin? Hey, I didn't great win and I must need it win. I do have a right for the NBA so called analysts where they're saying it's over, it's overwinn It's really not. Both teams have been pretty competitive. Games have been intense and closed, and it could have gone either way. So all we can ask from the Clippers is to put themselves in a
position to win the game. And that's what they've done so far. And give credit to Hi Luke for making the adjustments on defense and speed with Patrick Beverly and team man, and let's go ahead and do it three in a row. Let's keep doing the rope a dope like we did with a mapred them and the Jet. Thanks Marvin. I appreciate the phone call a basketball game nowadays, in this modern era here in twenty twenty one, that you're never out of it because three points shooting can get you back into a game
quickly. The Clippers went twelve of thirty four from three. That's just thirty five percent. This team shot forty one percent from distance throughout the entire season. Nobody was better from three and I had a concern through the first two games because they had outshot the Phoenix Suns from distance. They hit seven more three pointers than them in Game one and Game two, and they still lost both of those. But their defense prevailed in this one, and it was
a lot of Patrick Beverley and a Vitsa Zoo Boss. That was something we heard from Coach Lou about last segment, talking about how good those two play next to one another, those rear view contests, those blocks that Pat Bev gets on superstars in this league, like Devin Booker Van Mitchell, I think
it puts some doubt in their mind. It creeps in when you know, at any point Patrick Beverley is right there, and I wasn't sure if you could get back to this level where he is back to first team All Defense Patrick Beverley, but he and a Visa zubas a great defensive tandem out there on the court. And that was the latest adjustment from t Lou going back to Game two Tuesday night, put them into the starting lineup. It's worked, wonders. I also have this stat for you, Paul George tonight with
twenty seven fifteen and eight. He has scored twenty plus points in sixteen straight games, the longest streak in Clipper's history and the longest active streak in the NBA. And he blew a kiss to the crowd after he kissed that three pointer from half court in to end the third quarter. Let's go to Ryan in Los Angeles. Ryan, what's up? You're on Clipper's stock without of Auslin. Hey, great win tonight. It was a US win games.
You can't go down three out of this team. I mean, for all the Clipper fans out there, let's just be honest here for a second. This team should be up to one right now. They should Paul George hits those free throws. We're up to one. This team has played better than the Suns in the three games, than the Sun tap the Sun's one that combined seven points at home, Clippers just won by eleven are sixteen? Excuse me? The Clippers when they play their best are the best team in the
NBA. You just hit on that stat of the three points shooting. That's that's what's gonna keep you in games. And the biggest ingredient you just hit on that too. It's the defense. You gotta play that defense. And look, let's be honest too. CP three wasn't one hundred percent tonight. He wasn't great. He should get better as the series rolls along. The other question is gonna be, man, do we get Kauhi back? Do we get the claw back for this series? Because I'll tell you what,
this Clippers team is ready. They're ready to win this thing. They're showing the heart, they're showing the brit in Tyler Man. He's a fantastic coach and he's really made a lot of the adjustments for the series. And I'm really excited to see what these guys do in the next game. Ryan, I appreciate the phone call you bring up. How close the Clippers lose when they do lose in the playoffs. Listen to this stat after losing by one
in Game two in Phoenix. In the Clippers seven losses this postseason, they've come by thirty seven total points. That's an average of losing by just five points. They're always right there. They battle even when they don't have their best. It happened down twenty one in Game two against the Utah Jazz, and they could have taken either of the first two games in this series. In Game one they were down two with twenty two seconds left in Phoenix,
they were right there. But tonight when they play from ahead, when they get that lead like they did in the third quarter, and I do think being back at home in front of nineteen thousand screaming, raving his fans for Clippers basketball, it made a huge difference. It kept the pedal to the metal. It helped this team down the stretch just dig deep and find that energy. And that twenty one to three run that was critical. They had to have it. They had to keep pouring it on and playing this type
of defense where you're swarming and absolutely locking up. And yes, CP three, he'll get back in rhythm. We're not worried about that. We know Chris Paul. He's always been a great playoff performer, regardless of what people say the narratives week, look at the numbers. He's had a couple of bad moments, but he's always been exceptional in the playoffs. Expect him to play better, say with Devin Booker. But the Clippers had to have it
tonight and they win by fourteen here at Staples Center. Let's go to and you know what, let's take a quick break. No, I'm sorry, Zach. I'm going back and forth here, Kwami in Los Angeles. I'm discombobulated. I'm standing up at Staples Center, just like after Game six. Kwami, what's up? It was electrifying us there tonight. I'm still feeling the juice. I can't sit down. I'm big hit. I go.
I go back to being a teen eggs at the sports arena where I could buy noseblee tickets and then by the end of the game, I'd be sit in court size. So you know, to see that arena rocking the way that it was tonight, just it just it's undescribable. And I have to give a big shout out to this front office because the coaching of tylu, the a drafting of Terrorist Man, the resigning of Reggie Jackson, tradings for Marcus Morris, convincing Kauai and Paul George to come. I mean, I'm
so excited about our chances. I don't even know what to say anymore. This team will leave you a speechless Quam, although another Qualmie would not be speechless. But we appreciate the phone call you bring up. Marcus Morris, and that was someone else who coached. Lew highlighted post game because he's been playing hurt. They're so banged up. Guys are fatigued. If you were
here at Staples Center, you could see it with your own eyes. And Paul George doesn't have quite the burst, that doesn't have quite the explosive miss, although he had that big throw down the first half, but when he was fouled by crowd or going up her two hinted Duncan transition, he just wasn't getting up as much. You can see it. But they dug deep, they found a way, and I think the crowd supplied energy for them.
But Marcus Morris playing through it, played twenty three minutes, has that left knee injury, same thing he had going on to start off this season. Well, he had one three pointer in the third quarter one in the fourth. Both were big, same with Luke Kennard hit a three and the third hit a three and the fourth. The Clippers win game three, one oh six to ninety two. Here are Staples over the Phoenix Suns coming back. We'll get to your phone calls. Oh, Jeff and Tarzana still online.
I don't want to make him wait too long, but yeah, one, we're sitting and we'll have more postgame audio from the players. I'm Adam Oslin live from Staples Center after the Clippers win Game three, and you're listening to the Patriot Am eleven fifty. Who how are you feeling about it? Now? The home of the LA Clippers and the Western Conference Finals. This is LA Clippers playoff basketball. George Off the three from two bucks down with
the lane into the pink, kickout left wing. It's Jackson with another three. He got it. Reggie Jackson catches in ninety nine eighty six with three oh five to play in the Clipper back up thirteen. Jackson's got twenty one. Reggie Jackson had ten of his twenty three points in the fourth quarter when the Clippers needed them most, and they go on to win Game three here at Staples Center by a final score of one oh six to ninety two.
You're listening to Clippers tuck. I'm at a Moslin eight seven to seventy five two zero, eleven fifty. I want to make sure to underscore not just the defense from Pat Bev, but also he hit a three pointer, a big one in the fourth quarter, and he had kind of an okie dokee hook shot in the lane as well. Patrick Beverley was huge team effort as always, but so many guys made big plays and especially came through on the
defense. Find hold a team to just ninety two. I think the Sun's averaged one thirteen a game this year, and the Clippers held unto one. Oh foign game two. You would have thought they would have won that one. But they come back home and they're starting to do what they do. Just come back now, no Two. All right, let's go to Greg and Vince Eura. Greg, you're on Clippers stop without a Auslin. What's up? Yeah, I'm it's amazing, and it's it's the third time in
a row. Now we're down to and we're coming back anyway. You and Noah right after the game properly asset zoobots. But I just wanted to add one more thing. The Clippers clearly stole zoobots from the ignorant Los Angeles Laker management, which was headed up by Magic Johnson rob Olinka, and they dumped him to Greg. We all know the story. We don't need to kick him while they're down though. It's fine. Let's take the high road a
little bit here, But Adam, you gotta pointed out the guys. The guys turned out to be an absolute steal, and I just want to prop up the Clippers management for a change and say, hey, they got over the Lakers. That's all I want to say, Adam. There was a tweet Greg when that originally went down, with somebody saying, oh my god, the Clippers are fleecing the entire league because it was a steal. You're right. And the fact that Aviza zubats is on a team friendly, cap
friendly, seven million dollar year deal. It's just unbelievable with the production you get out of him. And I still think he's underrated. I don't think enough people just understand how good he is as a ram protector. Last season he was second in terms of ram protection and he shots coming within six feet of the basket. But tonight it's one of his best performances of his career. Sixteen rebounds. That's a playoff high for him. Sorry, Greg, No, I no, I agree. He's got a lot of upside.
I don't know. I just wanted to gloat a little bit, that's all. Hey enjoy it and take the victory. Laugh. Now let's see if this Clippers team can come back once again down zero two for the third straight series. Let's go to Jeff and Tarzana before we get to Terence Man postgame audio. Jeff, how are you doing. I'm doing great, Listen. I am so happy to be a Clipper fan. And you know what, I'm looking at the thing and they're not shooting very good from the outside today,
you know, twelve and thirty five or whatever the percentage was. And to get a guy like Zoo back to play as well as he does against a very good center that Phoenix has. The only thing I'm worried about it happens once a game, Adam, that the Clippers play one bad quarter, which I don't think they scored twenty points in the second quarter, am I correct, you are, Jeff, they only had seventeen. That's the only thing. That's the only thing that scares me when they're there. And like
the gentleman said before, the Clippers should be ahead two to one. But the thing is, with Kawhi being out and the team playing so good, you know he Kawai said when he got hurt that he was it was only temporary. How long is he supposed to be out for well, we haven't heard from Kawhi Leonard. Actually, Jeff, the official word is is a right spring knee. He's day to day, but basically he's been out indefinitely. We don't know. There's no word on when he could return. Okay,
I mean, I'll tell you right now. I really believe this, Adam. If Kawhi was playing right now, I think the Clippers would be up three to nothing. I think they played that well. And Tyrone Lou is a genius and I just can't I can't get over how good this team is. And no matter what happens in Los Angeles, we have the best team in the lay for the NBA. It's not that other team to places. Jeff, thank you for the phone call, back to back calls with
some gloating going on here. Oh I like it. Spicy stuff from Clifford Nation. Tonight, Let's hear from Terrence Man, the man. He was my player to watch coming in and he did not disappoint and the crowd and he there's a love affair going on here a Staple Center with this crowd and Terrence Man, who was looking like one of the best young players in the league and just his second season. Here he was after having twelve points to assist, five boards, a couple of offensive rebounds. But you know what
it is with him, it's much bigger than the numbers. He had ten of his twelve and the third quarter, and here he was postgame speaking with the media. Two points in the first like four buckets first minutes, so that second you kind of just do what you build teams and whatever. It's like the moment, So what was it about? What happened to percent and
song? Where he's like, I think it's reading the game. I realized that I need to be a little bit more aggressive in order for us to win or you know, having a chance to win, especially when the game's going where we're just taking jump shots and you know, not a lot a lot of guys getting downhill. So I just put my head down, got downhill. Hemmy, you are to go ahead. We'll go too far back, go ahead, far by far bat, I'm gonna go ahead and meet
you. Sorry about that. We will go to Mason. Go ahead, Mason here, Terrens, you guys were able to slow down not only Devin in this game, but also Chris coming back from you know, the same game COVID. What do you guys think you did specifically to kind of slow down both members of the draft court tonight. You know, we didn't do too much different from the first two games. We just more aggressive defensively, That's all I can say. We did. You know, we locked in,
we watched film. You know, we got two games to watch it, so you know everybody watched those two games, so we need to do executitys tyas t Is said he made a lot of good balls. After games. He had conversations as well. Uh yeah, you know, I just talked to him about, you know, what we gotta do, and that's pretty much it, you know, short conversation. We knew, we knew what we had to do, especially at Game two win that could have went
either way. Game two win for them, that could have went either way, So we knew we had to do. Scratch was not processing what I mean. It's cool, but at this point it doesn't matter. You know, I don't care if I'm starting or coming off the bench, just be me and bring the energy that this team needs. So yeah, what yeah, I mean, he still did a great job. You know, he
still did a great job. Hit some shots, played great defense, was in their battling on every rebound, fighting through you know, he's a winner, he's a great leader. So just seeing him fight through it and be out there playing hard definitely, you know, helped us will be able to do to make it a sort of difficult person and they really just makes if you play the rest of people, both of them that have to really structuring
starts sort of carried it over. You know, nothing different, you know, nothing different, just like I said, being more aggressive, you know, learning different spots and you know, to stay in front of them, learning different spots on how to contest their shots. After watching the first two games, you know, seeing where they get to, what they like and things like that. Think guys as a unit us well locker game too. It's probably tough loss all the ranks up. How did you take an individual
in You guys are a team. I guess discussion. We got great leaders man. You know those guys in the locker room always positive. You know we're not to lose. You know, everybody's on the same page. You know, some position we've been before two times, you know, unfortunately, but yeah, you know, everybody just stay locked in and and it was all the bets, you know, just kept everybody on the same page, kept everybody, you know positive. Also, I didn't really, you know,
feel as bad as it was. There was Terrence Man post game after the Clippers win Game three here at Staples one oh six to ninety two. I talked about the fatigue factor earlier with this team. But there's a couple of guys who hadn't played much early during this playoff run. For instance, Beatsa zubats who's also a young guy at twenty four years of age, and happy birthday, Luke Nard, who turned twenty five. Didn't have twenty five
but had nine points. Stay as hot. You always feel like that three pointers gonna fall when Luke Anard puts it up, went two or five from distance in this one. But you got somebody like him as well who hasn't played heavy minutes in the playoffs. Beatsa Zubots I mentioned Patrick Beverley hardly played in the first round, in the first couple of games of the second round, and Terrence Man, well, he's four years of age, he has
those young legs. And if you look now, Nicholas Batumas just played thirty minutes total the last two games, one of the most important players on this Clippers team. You can make the argument he's been the third or fourth most important player all season long, especially during this playoff run, and they've been saving his legs a little bit more because if it's a Zubos played thirty two minutes, this is how you can come back in the series. You gotta
have that juice. Clippers had it tonight, but I think Clipper Nation helps supply it here at Staples Center and they were rewarded with a one oh six to ninety two victory by their Los Angeles Clippers until Game four Saturday, and before we get out of here, I do want to thank the Clippers organization, Noah Eagle, Brian Seaman, Ralph Lawler, big brother, Jake Warner here at Staples Center, Jason here at Staples Center, and Zach go Quality,
who was just fantastic find the forever sound when it didn't take forever. Just just amazing stuff by Zacho Quality back in Burbeck until Saturday nights, starting with the pregame show at five pm. I'm Adam Oslin. We'll talk to you then why this has been Clippers to All Playoff edition of the Clippers recap of all the Clippers action on their official Hall Dynasty. He'll miss a single show every day. Good queen, hear anything you missed? I mean,
