00:00One of the big reasons why the Clippers were able to build a lead that was as large as 22
00:05was this center spot first
00:07It was Brooke Lopez that it was Isaiah Jackson. How about the combination of these two guys Brian Brooke got
00:13it started with this
00:14Three ball as hurdle was paying a lot of attention
00:18To him out there
00:20On the perimeter Brooke defensively getting a block, but the combination of Brooke Lopez along with Isaiah Jackson
00:26Pretty awesome Isaiah a good post move down on the inside collecting offensive rebounds as well
00:33Eight points and three boards for him cleaning up the mess a few times
00:37So 19 points and five rebounds collectively from the Clippers at the center position
00:43Jackson averaging 11 points a contest last handful of times out
00:47You see he's well on his way to do that as well
00:50So 19 points from the starting spot in the center spot. I should say meanwhile
00:55One of the reasons why that the Raptors were able to cut into the lead second chance opportunities and points
01:01off of turnover for the Raptors
01:03We talked about their defense
01:04They've got to sink their claws into something and that was offensive rebounding in the first half
01:09I mean it wasn't as damaging as it could have been for the Clippers, but all over the glass
01:14Looking for second chance opportunity. They got seven
01:17But the real damage was coming in transition 12 points after cooking turnovers
01:24So 19 of those 45 coming kind of the easy way
01:29So keeping the Raptors in half-court execution on the offensive end that will bode well in the second half
01:35for the Clips
01:36Yeah Raptors only shot 37 percent from the field
01:39Let's hear what they were saying in the locker room Jamie
01:40Oh, Brian, you guys just talked about it. It was those second chance points in the second quarter
01:45Ryan Shaw said, you know, I think we got a little bored with the lead. We got a little too
01:49comfortable
01:49You relax just a little bit the momentum shifts and things can go different real quick
01:54He said they just need to keep up the intensity keep up the pressure in the second half
01:58Definitely like the way they started the game in that first quarter. Just got to get back to those ways
02:01here in the second half
02:02By the way, Jakob Pertl. Not sure if you guys touched on this yet. He is available to return. That's
02:07good to see took a shot in the
02:10face that drew blood went straight back to the locker room
02:14On the other side of his face, but it's good to see him back out there
02:17You wonder Brian for the Toronto Raptors on the season six and twelve on the road if trailing at halftime
02:23and
02:24You think about their offense and the way they operate of course, it's turnovers transition
02:29We've covered that but the inability to score from the three-point line how difficult how much work you have
02:35to do
02:35To try to claw out of big deficits
02:38We'll see
02:39How they do that here tonight against the Clippers from the Clippers don't want to help the cause now
02:44They're out in front 59 to 45 as we open this one up. I did expect a more
02:49Desperate team from Toronto and there's a turnover to start as the Raptors are in a near photo finish
02:54Should the two teams give it right back out of the Eastern Conference five through ten
02:59Separated by two and a half games in Toronto is leading that with Charger. They are the fifth seed right
03:04now
03:04100% agree with you Brian not much response from the Clippers who had this kind of performance against the
03:11Phoenix Suns a few nights ago
03:13They did not put up much of a fight so
03:15Again, we'll see in the first five minutes of the third quarter if they mount something the first 30 seconds
03:20Clippers are trying to help the cause to giveaways now for the Clippers on their first two possessions
03:27Now Barnes back the other way for Toronto
03:30The crews in Toronto played back in the middle part of January the game went into overtime
03:35And it was dominated by two Clippers not on the roster anymore James Harden and it beats a zoo box
03:40There was help from Jordan Miller who is out with back spasms tonight as Ingram knocks down the mid-range
03:45and cuts the lead to 12
03:50No
03:53Leonard was not part of that game
03:55gives to Lopez
03:57Awkward shot by Brooke Barrett the rebound not a great start here for the Clippers in this third quarter after
04:03leading by as many as 22
04:04They lost some of the momentum at the end of the second quarter Garland gets it right back here
04:09The pull-up three loved it all the way modern-day NBA you gotta love it
04:14D.G. just coming off the shed
04:16On that strong side knowing that he's not that good of a shooter and timed it well to get the
04:21turnover in the three
04:23Crippers 8 of 18 from above the arc they lead 62 47 rebound tapped out of bounds by Barrett it
04:29goes back to the Clippers
04:31A lot of times coaches are talking about not coming off the strong side you don't want to give up
04:36a corner three
04:37But knowing your personnel and knowing your ability to get to that ball
04:43Garland does both
04:44Skips off the screen by Lopez on a pick-and-pop Lopez the three in and out Barrett the rebound
04:58Barrett
04:59Wild shot off the window Lopez the rebound
05:05Garland
05:06Accelerates down the lane change of pace off the window and in 16 for Garland
05:10How about not touching the ball at all with the right hand and still controlling the great finish by D
05:16.G. Ingram the corner three it's good
05:19England 37 percent on the year 64 50
05:26Garland six of ten Kawhi five for ten
05:34Leonard deep into the paint
05:38Rebound off those long fingers and out of bounds time now for driving to the hoop brought to you by
05:43Hyundai
05:47We'll catch up to that one a little bit later 9 15 need to play in the third
05:50Zippers by 14 Barnes leads it shed to the rim hangs on the iron Collins plucks it off the rim
06:03Leonard
06:07So far is lurking deep ball finds
06:12For a very deep three
06:24And then he's a big boy on the iso tip the ball right to go in and then why not
06:28from 2018
06:30blocking foul
06:32It's been much anticipated it's time now for the drive to the hoop brought to you by Hyundai
06:36Darius Garland all left all the time sweet finish
06:49Garland seven of eleven four of six from three was five of seven the other night overall
06:55And a stress-free win over the bucks to kind of make it two stress-free wins here
06:59Toronto not cooperating 67 52 Scotty Barnes now
07:04With points five and six it has been a struggle for him on three of ten shooting whistle
07:10Foul goes against Toronto
07:16Down goes on Barrett
07:18Rupa Toronto Raptors fan all of his life from Canada
07:23He calls this a dream scenario and looking to get them into the playoffs for the first time in four
07:29years
07:30He calls this number 12
07:31Colton Murray Boyles
07:33Murray Boyles checks in
07:35Pearl takes his seat
07:43Leonard
07:46Murray Boyle doing a good job of keeping Kawhi in front of him
07:49An exaggerated finish by Kawhi maybe draws the whistle
07:53He'll go to the free throw line
07:54Also drawing the ire of Darko who thought that call was extremely late
08:01C.M.B. good defense and hand
08:05Up but not straight up so making contact with Kawhi on their release
08:10The free throws earned
08:131 5 of 11 a plus 10 on this game 15 points overall
08:17It's the first of two 68 52 flippers out in front the intrigue still continues
08:23Will Kawhi Leonard have the 50 40 90 season
08:28So close dragon
08:33I don't even know what to think I don't I have to do the math to see what it has
08:37to do
08:37I'm just want to leave it out there
08:40So few games to go and so finite those numbers
08:45And Kawhi six of seven from the free throw line tonight
08:49Ingram sit up the ball fake pulls up from 15
08:51Collins a running rebound but a whistle and a loose ball foul goes against the clippers
08:56A good call there
08:57Colin Murray Boyles in great position and would have had possession if his arms weren't swept away
09:03To gather the rebound
09:11Second foul on the clippers two for toronto as well
09:15And the Raptors one for seven from the free throw line
09:27Nice pass in to Murray Boyles
09:30Gives to Barnes
09:31Now the corner three by Barrett
09:33Halfway down and a high rise rebound for Jones
09:37Bippers have led this game by as many as 22
09:40Out in front now 69 52
09:49What a pass nice finish 71 52 timeout toronto
10:01Darius Garland setting everybody up and he's got three assists Derek Jones Jr. gets his first two for the night
10:13Started a little rough for the clippers and then who do you turn to why not the point guard Darius
10:19Garland
10:20Getting the steal the quick three in transition. He's three of three
10:24Here in the third
10:26Then the sweet lefty finish just no right whatsoever just swiping left the whole time and then the assist
10:32For the first bucket for Derek Jones Jr. In this game, so garland those eight points taking a quick break
10:38as the clippers
10:40Maintain this 19 point lead
10:43Why stays out on the floor with 725 to play
10:49You've seen those guys come out almost simultaneously back in the first half
10:53Why because you have benedict map through than john collins back in the lineup
10:57Leonard comes over to double ingram that leaves barrett open he attacks
11:01Leaving shed down in the corner for three it's his second and it's 71 55 clippers out in front
11:07Much needed basket for the raster should to slow things down and see if they can climb their way
11:12Back into this game to try to work themselves
11:15Under 10 at some point and get some life
11:17The line is to attack on murray boils seven to shoot launches the three
11:24It's short barnes the rebound 645 to play in the third
11:30Murray boils inside lays it in that's his second basket
11:35The timing on the pass for scotty barnes too it looked like he was
11:39Hesitating to try to attack himself
11:41And then just whip that pass to cmd inside six assists for barnes six points and four rebounds and a
11:48multi-tasking effort for the two-time all-star
11:50Jones hangs inside his head doesn't get a whistle collins able to control
11:58Jones recovers seven to shoot a whistle
12:06Talking about a shot clock violation
12:10Mitchell urban saying that that ball did not hit the rim
12:30And I don't know if they claim that it was possession by Toronto and I think that that's what the
12:35clipper players are complaining about it
12:38Felt like Toronto had the ball but they did not
12:40And the clippers get 16 seconds
12:47I'm not gonna complain about it 71 57
12:55Leonard picked up by ingram likes the matchup
12:59Spins away elevates
13:01Counting on a foul kawaii with 19
13:04How about the scrum brian on that position with john collins and kawaii at the street
13:09He's like an offensive and defensive line
13:12And then kawaii breaks away with some space here works on ingram
13:16The spin the back down
13:18Getting where he wants to go and then brandon with the push kawaii with the two
13:32And finally roll for kawaii gets to his 20
13:35And the street continues for kawaii leonard clippers about scored the raptors by three in the quarter 74 57 overall
13:42in the game
13:43You can see just on dominant kawaii has been over his last 300 minutes better than a point per minute
13:49shed feels it low shoots it high can't get it to go kawaii the rebound
13:55He's head on the swivels he brings it across
13:59Elevates again and puts it in again kawaii with 22 he's got the last five of the game
14:06Working his way to the sweet spot there and i think kawaii as soon as he released that thought it
14:10was a little short
14:11Not so shed had a shot sent it out to barrett for the three
14:16Barnes the offensive rebound sends it out to ingram who steps into the triple and knocks it down
14:25Ingram now with 14 and the raptors hanging around the bridge yet to deliver a knockout blow five minutes to
14:32play in the third kawaii feeling good
14:35long rebound goes to dun
14:38Now dun fires the three and it's a rebound collected by ingram
14:45A shot on goal for chris dunn here tonight coming off the bench
14:51Lori boyle slapped three by don recovered by ingram
14:55Barrett the catch and shoot three it's an air ball might have been blocked by kawaii
14:59i hope it was
15:01Feels like a dead pigeon right there i hope it was
15:06Lopez plays catch down the lane back to jones his shot is blocked
15:12And as lopez being gary unselfish and now back the other way is barnes tight ropes the baseline
15:18the wall thinks he traveled
15:21lots of steps tiptoeing along that baseline the barnes
15:28Offensive foul we're going the other way
15:33See the advanced pass after the great block that shed had
15:36one
15:37two
15:39three
15:41If he didn't go if he didn't go out of bounds
15:44Did he absolutely travel but was it on the gather
15:56Clippers got away with one earlier when they put extra time on the shot clock
15:59Barnes gets away with the travel
16:01And it's all right it all comes out in the wash
16:03Clippers by 16 under four to play
16:12Five to shoot for lopez
16:16The fade away
16:19Ingram the rebound
16:25Lopez diving on the floor saves it to matherin
16:29Matherin out of control spikes it off the leg and dies oh what a play
16:34Walter was out of bounds and matherin throws it off of him
16:37Oh great play by brooke to get down and now the referees are changing possession
16:42To toronto as we take a look back at
16:45Brooke getting down on the floor
16:48Toilu says let's chat
16:51And if nothing else reward that hustle from brooke lopez 327 to play in the third timeout
16:5676
16:5860
16:59We'll find out if matherin was out of bounds before trying to knock it off walter
17:06Toronto has been overturned
17:09It is the clippers ball they will be charged a mandatory timeout but they do retain their challenge
17:13Thank you
17:15Politeness matters kids
17:18Other than inbounds
17:22Jacoby walter
17:23Out of bounds and so are his shorts so let me ask you this if this is
17:301985 larry bird no chance correct
17:34might glance
17:36It would have glanced you know his thigh potentially but definitely not any of that
17:43Fabric of those matherin knew that it was a reviewable play and he put the finger up there and boy
17:49He knew it he was confident
17:51I love it when they do that
17:55That's
17:57Said brian seaman said facetiously
17:59How about that out of bounds play very nice law by isaiah jackson it is 78 60
18:07Clippers out in front isaiah jackson has only taken five shots he's made
18:17Ingram swings it over to walter
18:21Tough pass for ingram to handle under the gun three to shoot gets to his spot contested jumper is good
18:27what a tough shot by ingram
18:33Done
18:40Back outside matherin comes in into jackson shedding defenders can't hold on to it patoum the sidestep quarter three bucket
18:48Trey bian
18:5081-62 clippers out in front
18:53This is just knowing he had enough time in his first coming full speed at him
18:57Good pumping
18:59And he was feeling knocks it down a little retaliation his second three
19:06These two teams just kind of trading punches here in the third
19:11Raptors haven't been able to get back into it clippers haven't been able to pull away nice feed by jackson
19:18Garland brings the portal out with them and surveys the scene
19:21He feels good about his opportunity leaves it shortly about punched by the tomb
19:26So look at the hands of toronto
19:32Ingram
19:35My movie was going to be another three it's a hat trick
19:38He's capable of doing that great job by ingram just reading the collapsing clipper defense that time to paint
19:46He's coming up
19:46Pretty much covered up in that weak side wide open for mama
19:50He's coming up a nice game against the jazz 23 points
19:53Five steals in that game garland down the lane plays to mather and swooping in and laying it in
19:59Rather than on that 45 club well time to get himself right to the rim for an easy finish
20:09Ingram
20:11Great contest by baton forces to miss down the rebound garland the other way 110 to play in the third
20:17matter and filling the lane what a break by the clippers
20:2185 68 timeout toronto
20:25I don't know when isaiah jackson knew that matter who was coming
20:29on the left side as a trailer on that play but garland to jackson
20:35and jackson
20:37to matter who scored previously on the layup we get back to the break here garland to the big big
20:45to the small and the lead is growing
20:49an experience clippers basketball with the energy of intuitive the ticket said clippers.com slash tickets
20:57some nice offensive
20:59play here in this third quarter clippers get a stop right there leading 85 to 68 under a minute to
21:05play the third
21:06mathers struggled with the dribble gives the garland
21:12batoum the three oh he hits it again batoum with his third triple and it's 88 68
21:21mamu closed out saw the ball go in look to the heavens like what else could i do
21:27photo on jackson creating some space nice footwork inside and lays it in
21:37toronto shooting just 40 percent from the field
21:41they've got 12 more shots than the clippers because of the 13 offensive rebounds
21:47about a four second difference between the two timers it'll be toronto ball to start the fourth
21:52inside the jackson deflected lots of time here for toronto back the other way walter the finish
21:58the foul oh no they count the basket there beg your pardon
22:05four seconds to play in the third garland
22:10pumping the three it's ahead of the horn oh he hit it he hit it at the horn what a
22:16shot by garland
22:17five threes and he puts the clippers out in front by 19
22:25there he is garland playing with the clock playing with the defense but not playing with the game
22:31creates some space on the right side gets open bucket
23:00when we start the fourth quarter
23:02clippers looking to climb above that 500 mark after falling two games down
23:07and 36 and 36 12 minutes away from doing how it started how it is going they would also sweep
23:13this season series and one of the things about this run the clippers have been on since december
23:1720th a lot of the wins have been against current playoff team this isn't a a bottom
23:21feeding record where the clippers just had a break in the schedule they have played well against some
23:25of the best they're going to run through the tape with 12 minutes and they get off to a good
23:29start
23:29forced to turn over 91 72 out in front
23:43and it will be the first against Toronto
23:50good sign also here brian with the clippers on the season 20 and three
23:55if leading after three quarters here in this building so rare for a team to come back on them
24:03and maverick does a good job on this first possession trying to secure some points at the free throw line
24:08you're just joining us he checked in late in the first quarter played
24:15conservatively 50 seconds and got six free throws all of them this is his first
24:19trip to the line since that first quarter he has 13 points in his return missed the last three
24:27just really wanted to see ben get back to making three-point shots i mean it has been a struggle
24:34since he's gotten here 18 percent 11 of 60 coming into this game and just some kind of rhythm and
24:40confidence some regression to the mean would be nice in the last eight or nine games he's been a great
24:47three-point shooter in his career 36 is about his peak that he has had over there but 18
24:5418 percent is definitely better
24:56i do agree with that bear head draws the foul first against the clippers here in the quarter
25:09so barrett will go to the free throw line here not a minute going by in this fourth quarter
25:15and toronto in a dogfight out in the eastern conference you mentioned this a couple times two
25:25and a half games separate the fifth seed and the tenth seed the rafters have
25:31a tiebreaker over atlanta that is right behind them they've got a 2-0 series lead against miami they
25:36are tied with all the others behind them so they're in technically a good position because it will
25:41likely as a gambling man i would say it's going to be a multiple team tiebreaker in the east and
25:48it
25:48could literally separate planes and top six yep i agree with you brian and toronto on the schedule still
25:56sees the likes of boston and new york i think atlanta one more time so
26:03it's not like these teams are going to be resting those teams are still jockeying for where it is
26:08they're going to finish so work to be done for the toronto raptors reminds me of last year in the
26:14western conference where three games separated the nine seed from the three seed
26:24puts in the first of two sounds like the last decade in the western conference
26:28in the eastern conference i will say the play in game while it's been a great addition it has there's
26:34no
26:34it has added a lot of stress to a lot of coaches in the western conference in the eastern conference
26:39too
26:40usually you're in the sixth spot you're in the clear you're going to be all right but boy it is
26:45you could not fall behind that line
26:49and it's not to say that you can't win a playoff series it happened last year as late as last
26:54year
26:54golden state with the seven seed offending houston the two seed in round one
27:00murray boils inside lays it in 10 38 to play it's a 20-point game
27:07because they've had their hands on the wheel for much of this game
27:11i'm going to continue to run through the tape here and you can see toronto now darko
27:17having his troops get up the floor some extended pressure
27:22going to take some more time off of each possession for the clippers in the half court
27:29mathurin free to fire and that 18 percent might now go to 19 percent on that one math with his
27:36first
27:36three 98 75 clippers
27:42and now 12 of 62 with the clippers turtle
27:57ingram over the top of math will max it down brandon ingram now with 18. such a tough shot i
28:02mean just to
28:03stand there with the basketball somebody leaning on you no dribbles ingram sweet shot good ring
28:09garland creates the space can't hit the three now murray boils inside
28:17shed back to barrett topside three
28:20hurdle right place right time falls right into his lap timeout clippers
28:24it's 98 79 918 to play
28:34first leading the raptors 98 79 here in the fourth quarter with just a couple of weeks left in the
28:41regular season there is still a lot of for grabs in the eastern conference the raptors currently sitting
28:46in the fifth seed but seats five through ten are separated by a mere two and a half games now
28:52the
28:52rafters are looking up at the cavaliers in fourth but cleveland's top four players have only played 35
28:58minutes together and the celtics are bringing jason tatum along after he missed nearly 300 days with
29:04the torn achilles he has scored in double digits in all nine games since his return but even he said
29:09i'm not superman by the way the celtics knocked off the thunder tonight 119 to 109
29:15tatum flirted with a triple double 19 points 12 rebounds seven assists but guys get your popcorn ready
29:20the drama of the nba is going to be fun to watch as it all unfolds in both conferences of
29:26these six ten
29:26games or so and then the real drama begins jamie when the playoffs begin so it's a great finish here
29:32for
29:32the league is coming out of timeout why leonard misses on the jumper and the raptors have the rebound
29:38both of these teams are hoping to be in that postseason as barrett draws the foul they'll go to the
29:44free throw line
29:45a lot of contact on the play and matherin telling ty lula look at it and then saying you know
29:53what don't
29:54worry about it i did foul that left hand is all over for barrett
29:59oh matherin continued his politicking
30:03now at 847 to play we've got a review 98 79 quickly
30:13after review matherin makes legal clean contact with the ball
30:17therefore the challenge by the clippers is successful the call is overturned to a no call
30:22upon resumption of play matherin has the ball therefore it'd be a clipper's ball side out
30:27the shot clock at 23. that's the clipper's second challenge so they charge the timeout and don't
30:32have any more challenges left thank you see brian what had happened was i grabbed your glasses
30:39and not my glasses and the referees saw it that matherin stripped the ball clean on the way up and
30:46so
30:46matherin correct to get the challenge clickers get possession and i'll renew my prescription
30:53you and i were both surprised by the call that is for sure we are not complaining
30:57about the call that is also for sure 98 79
31:05back to shoot late in the clock again now for the clippers same spot for kawaii as it was last
31:10time and the same result this time it's back tapped out to the backcourt and out of bounds so
31:15a great fourth quarter here for the clippers they have some pennies in the piggy bank for a rainy day
31:22one for five here in the frame you see the next time down brian the toronto goes back to that
31:27zone
31:28defense that they played on that last possession
31:33jumper by murray boils lays it in it's 98 81 the rookie now with eight
31:45and back to the zone
31:52mather
31:59carlin getting deep into his back what a shot by garland 24. unbelievable step through i can't
32:07believe he covered that much ground he cleared a huge shooting window to score there also on a foul
32:13will be the third against the clippers
32:18it's areas through the legs working the big man over and then a huge step through
32:21i got away with an extra one but bucket good
32:27carlin 9 for 15 here tonight the bridge has a team 50 percent
32:33leonard gambles barrett's going to try to make him play drives and dishes to barns the corner three
32:39it is good 33 percent on the year cuts the lead down to 16. scotty barns just nine points in
32:46this game to go
32:47with 10 assists and five boards but they're going to need him to get going to make a push here
32:51against the clippers
32:55and hit the layup however 184
33:04to have lost his sneaker on the deep by garland whistle timeout clippers back to a 14-point affair
33:16brought to you by keel yeah thinking about it brian how good the starters were in this
33:20game kawhi leonard and darius garland up until this point and when you get a lead
33:24like that it allows the bench to come in and relax and of course with a couple guys coming back
33:29into the
33:30lineup that can give them some confidence that he can work with the lead isaiah jackson on the finish
33:35there he was four of four in the first half dg hit that long three to end the third quarter
33:40but
33:40the work not over here as toronto is employing this zone defense the clippers have slowed down
33:46a little bit and they're going to need to have their starters play well down the stretch
33:51to complete the mission cookers just two for seven in the quarter they lead by 14 i mentioned they had
33:56some pennies in the piggy bank it's starting to rain a little bit as the raptors are six of eight
34:01whistle foul and it goes on toronto it is their third
34:14percent to inbound
34:21you see if darko wants to get this zone back in on the side out of bounds he's going to
34:27play man
34:31it's another late shot clock effort here for the clippers leonard to dun for to shoot in trouble
34:37picked up by barnes one to shoot stripped by murray boils and now he's fouled in transition will they
34:43call it a common foul i believe that is the call on a tape foul with the clippers
34:52to leak a bit of oil here
34:56up the steel there and then the reach
35:00in the rift gets the call from weight deep who is getting back down the floor in position for the
35:06call
35:07third foul for the grippers in the quarter ingram
35:14rises from 20 the shot is short oh speaking of rising it's derrick jones elevating over everybody
35:21can't hold on to it but for good reason a loose ball foul on toronto this is the kind of
35:26games where you
35:27appreciate the effort of players like derrick jones jr has not gotten a lot of offensive opportunities
35:33he's had to play against scotty barnes he's had to rebound the basketball he's had to cut and make plays
35:41it doesn't add up in the stat sheet but the minutes he's played have been impacted here tonight
35:51book lopez back out there joining mathlin leonard
35:56dunn and jones
35:59back to the zone for toronto
36:03dunn able to find a gap bathroom can't convert and the ball goes back to toronto they get this
36:09into single digits it's going to be very interesting down the stretch the person led by his benning is 23
36:15toronto does have a 20 point comeback on their roster
36:20ingram
36:22barrett giving off the line baseline drive maybe block certainly altered by lopez
36:32down
36:33goes down
36:37chris just lost his balance that was the case
36:46just losing his footing it's interesting up from our vantage point you can see the scrape marks on the
36:51the floor for about eight feet
36:53and chris probably that left
36:57kind of shin area scraping on the floor i'm sure feels about 195 degrees right now
37:10and then the ball
37:10toss a tap done wins it math around
37:12coming on a foul what a play
37:19heads up on the jump ball first of all for matter to be on that side of the jump ball
37:24and then work his way inside the circle
37:28and then turn he ran away to score
37:32and i'll tell you it's like he's got an ejector button when he feels that contact on his arm to
37:36go
37:36straight up he did it right there counted at a foul we've got a timeout five and a half to
37:41play in
37:41the game and the clippers lead one oh two to eighty six
37:45i don't know as well dr ryankovic was upset thinking that maybe benedict matherin was able to
37:56sneak in and maybe he was well he's upset about this matherin can't go in here until the ball is
38:02just touched so you watch on the jump ball the ball is going to go up
38:05and matherin's in before contact with the ball and scores and darko legitimately had a discussion
38:13with the referees that you can't do that but not able to replay that so then it cost him two
38:20potentially three and matherin slide gets away with one can i just say that that was some of the best
38:28illustration that we had and we even have the czar of the television the arrow was so straight you
38:33got to start somewhere if you want to get into the announcing hall of fame that was my attempt
38:39three quickly put up there by walter of course we're talking about our beloved mike fratello
38:46was inducted in the hall of fame winning the kirk gowdy award as a broadcaster
38:52i think zagat is also going to put mike fratello into their hall of fame which is kind of cool
38:59leonard
39:00rattles it in if you need a restaurant recommendation that's where you're going everybody knows it in the
39:04league kawaii leonard now with 24 and the clippers lead 104 to 86 really nice bucket there to get some
39:13breathing room quick with the clock clippers trying to deliver a knockout blow here
39:17a bucket would go a long way in that process
39:25kawaii sizing up his defender that draws a couple of them matherin eight to shoot
39:34lopez the three yes
39:40clippers 107 toronto 86 another matherin assist for three we'll take it
39:46and drive at a dish now five helpers for benedict matherin
39:55barnes creates the contact on leonard then dumps it inside to murray boils and
40:00promptly puts it up the youngster with 10 off the bench
40:05nice touch there with the left hand using the glass and getting around with lopez
40:16kawaii the three oh it's good 27 for leonard timeout toronto
40:23clippers out in front by 22 we'll keep it here
40:29we just start to expect that the clippers are going to make the shots that are necessary for them
40:36to win ballgames and that's what they've done here again tonight brooke great timing on the defense
40:43gets the block shot on murray boils matherin with the setup great job getting inside the big before
40:50delivering that pass and then kawaii stepping back inviting scotty to get closer so he could get a
40:56better taste of that three governor steve balmer loving the life mention the story again
41:06all of the steve probably beginning of december late november when the clippers were really going
41:10through it and he talks about not ever being a owner of a losing basketball team after 14 years
41:19well guess what clippers back in business three minutes 45 seconds away from jumping over that 500
41:27mark and in theory and you've still got to play the games but a nice runway for the clippers to
41:33kind
41:33of path that they've got to play well but they have done that here the last couple of games and
41:39there
41:39you see it it's a big deal i mean especially for a player like you but you were here for
41:44winning it
41:44wasn't really a thing to be to be good at basketball for the clippers and here they are 14 consecutive
41:52winning seasons it's a remarkable thing to watch this turnaround having been a socal resident for 25
41:58years having lived a little bit of that life on the floor and mounting this effort to get back to
42:05their winning ways
42:0737 and 36 maybe after tonight and a chance on the road to take care of business next game against
42:14the
42:14pacers and then the bucks and then really circling that end of the month game against the portland
42:19trailblazers on the 31st right here at into it two games that'll be the next home game for the clippers
42:24two games remaining with portland and the white flag has been waived by toronto 3 30 to play on this
42:31one
42:31but the clippers out in front by 22
42:44mathurin the contested three in and out rebound goes to camp christie he is fouled he will go to the
42:49line
42:51the upcoming schedule for the clippers those two on the road indiana milwaukee a big game against
42:56portland then it's san antonio which will be an interesting game to see where the spurs are
43:00and at sacramento dallas oklahoma city final road game will be in portland and they will host
43:06the golden state warriors it kind of felt like it could be an interesting game with the warriors that
43:12final game as it turns out probably not as much meaning as it had a year ago hey clipper season
43:16tickets
43:17give you priority actions to postseason tickets and exclusive member benefits it into a dome
43:20learn how to get first in line clippers.com season tickets do have those just the one back to back
43:27right the uh the dow the okc dallas back to back so that's that's good there's a couple times where
43:33there's two days in between between games which is which is advantageous as well for some rest
43:39but beneficial schedule not sure who will be playing matter will continue to play as he gets out in
43:48transition but 23 from mathurin in his return and the clippers have not had back-to-back days off since
43:55february and it played every other day or had back-to-back several times already in the month of march
44:03it's the busiest month of the season by far and givers kind of stubbed their toe in the middle part
44:09of it the ides of march you know back in business here looking for their second straight win and
44:15over that five hundred mark at thirty seven and thirty six
44:19the line first which falls 233 to play still really a chance brian for tylu to get everybody healthy
44:36jordan miller hopefully we'll be back dealing with that lower back and the tightness in the back
44:42that's come up a couple times and might be connected to the hamstring injury that he suffered early on
44:47in the season but when everybody's back it's still that curious bench unit where he wants
44:52chris dunn and jordan miller and benedict mathurin to come off to be a bit of that core to support
44:59the
44:59starting group kobe sanders the three i'll tell you what the kids on one that's his second three but
45:08over his last 11 games is hitting 50 percent of his trays he hits 117 90. grady dick the jumper
45:16from 15
45:16is short and sean pedula comes away with the rebound and a foot race with grady dick leaves it for
45:23jackson
45:24the finish and the candles on the cake 119 90 clippers out in front a great job by sean just
45:31the timing on
45:31the bounce pass ready for isaiah to be able to collect that to get the easy dunk grace jepson davis
45:40out there
45:45so is garrick temple former clipper and this really good locker room guy when he was here for sure
45:52samuel sander sander gets it ahead to padula says why not the three comes up short
46:02brady dick for corner three in and out
46:07a rebound put up by mobile
46:18Субтитры сделал DimaTorzok

49:39games was there anything that you
49:40were able to see with this new team
49:43with this new roster that you were
49:44able to apply tonight yeah I think
49:46that being away from the game for a
49:49little bit of time allowed me to see

49:55we have beautiful basketball going on
49:56right now we just got to keep it
49:57going being very unselfish no got to
50:01know everybody's role on the team and
50:02I think we can achieve a lot of great
50:04things it's a beautiful basketball
50:06this is a similar game to the other
50:08night against Milwaukee where you were
50:10able to build a significant lead and
50:12then hang on to it and finish strong
50:13and Ty Lue said it was a very
50:14professional win against Milwaukee I
50:16imagine he'll say something similar

50:20right now that's working so well the
50:21chemistry and the communication we
50:24got to start playing around you got
50:26to take care of business you know we
50:27got to stay on we got to stay
