10:09Субтитры сделал DimaTorzok
10:32Not a good sign for the Clippers early
10:35Blazers 27th in the league in percentage
10:37But they get there the third most
10:39We've seen the Clippers kind of struggle the last couple of ballgames
10:42From the free throw line despite being number one in the league in that category
10:46You can sometime I don't think it out
10:48I don't think it affected the outcome of those last two games
10:51It could absolutely affect the outcome here tonight
10:53They really could on the road in the pressure situation
10:56Maybe you're making shots maybe not
10:58But you could rely on the free throw line to kind of balance
11:01Some things on if you're not hitting it
11:03It just adds more stress on this end of the court
11:06Just a bucket of nails here for the Blazers
11:09All four of their points out the stripe
11:11A whistle and a foul on the floor
11:13So we've had 50 seconds played and three whistles blown already
11:22Clippers did shoot 50% against this defense
11:25Although just were outshot by about a million
11:28As Lopez gets the game's first field goal
11:30And the Clippers cut the lead down to two
11:32With a minute gone by in this first quarter
11:35Holiday
11:36Gets done in his back pocket
11:38Finds Kling on the three
11:39It's good
11:42Kling in
11:4433% on the year
11:46That will get better as his career grows
11:49But he is a threat from distance
11:50He's becoming a reliable outlet
11:53In that pick and roll to be able to step back at 34%
11:57He's always had a beautiful stroke now
11:58He just has more confidence
12:00Garland great footwork
12:01Can't get the touch to fall
12:03Abdiah the rebound and gets it ahead to Kamara
12:05Kamara's played really well
12:06In this stretch run for the Blazers
12:08Abdiah down the lane and down the hatch
12:10It's 7-2 in favor of the Blazers
12:13And a quick timeout from Tyloo
12:15Yeah, it's right now
12:17The aggressive nature of Portland
12:20Putting the ball on the deck
12:21I'm going to attack you one-on-one
12:22Can you stop me?
12:23Well, early on it's been two fouls
12:25Now you give up the layup
12:26To Denny Abdiah inside
12:27Tyloo wants to talk about this
12:37Well, a quick start for the home team
12:39Blazers out in front by seven
12:41Hitting both of their shots
12:42And going to the free throw line four times
12:44It's time now for stats
12:45Brought to you by Ticketmaster
12:47I mentioned the defense for the Blazers
12:50In the month of March
12:51Yeah, really good
12:52They lean into that defense
12:53They're probably a below average offensive team
12:57Overall in the season 22nd
12:59But overall the last maybe 12 games
13:01They've been in the top 20
13:03But they rely on defense
13:04And they rely on offensive rebounds
13:06This is a company area
13:08Thunder 22-2 since
13:10You know, all-star break
13:11Hawks 19-5
13:12Celtics 19-6
13:13So that's the rare air that
13:16Portland has been in
13:17From the defensive efficiency
13:19Even though they're only 13-11
13:21And that's a really good play
13:22Coming out the timeout
13:23Knowing
13:24That Klingon is going to help in
13:26And Brook Lopez
13:27If you put him in the corner
13:28We'll have an open look
13:29Lopez only 10 of his last 15
13:31In this arena
13:32Nice block by Jones
13:33Recovery by Holiday inside
13:36Kamara driven off the line
13:37By Garland
13:37The floater is long
13:39And Leonard
13:39The rebound
13:40Here come the clipper
13:40Yeah, next to the job
13:41By Darius Garland
13:42Running
13:43Samani Kamara
13:44Who's been hot
13:45From behind the three-point line
13:47Off of it
13:47Into a tough two
13:48Nice feed
13:49From Lopez to Leonard
13:51And he lays it in
13:52Two positive possessions
13:53You see Kawhi
13:53With the little arm extended
13:55On school Henderson
13:57Like little fella
13:57Just get out the way
13:58Let me catch this one hand
14:00And finish
14:01Well, good response
14:01Coming out of the corner
14:02For the Clippers
14:03After
14:04The Blazers
14:05Landed some jabs
14:069-20 to play
14:07In this first quarter
14:08Clippers trail by two
14:12Obdia into the paint
14:13Surrounded by blue jerseys
14:14Topside to Kamara
14:15Has shot the ball
14:16Well of late
14:17Misses everything there
14:18And Garland
14:19Really good help
14:20Don't Obdia
14:21Going to the basket
14:22Another opportunity
14:23Darlin the quarter
14:24Three and he puts
14:25The Clippers
14:25Out in front
14:28Amazing what happens
14:29When you get stops
14:29Right
14:30And then now
14:31You're playing
14:31Playing with pace
14:32Find yourself
14:33Getting some
14:34Easier looks
14:35At the basket
14:35As well
14:36Eight unanswered
14:37For the Clippers
14:37Coming out of the break
14:388-50 to play
14:39In the first quarter
14:39Holliday surrounded
14:40By blue jerseys
14:41Again
14:41Clinging left alone
14:43Hit one there earlier
14:44Great box out
14:45By Garland
14:46Rebound
14:47Controlled
14:47By Lopez
14:50Leonard
14:52Around Holliday
14:53Off the window
14:54And in
14:55Kawhi Leonard
14:55With his second basket
14:56And just like that
14:58A timeout
14:59From Portland
14:59Clippers
15:00On a 10-0 run
15:01Yeah
15:01Ty Lue said
15:02Listen
15:02I had to take
15:03The first time out
15:04Tiago Spinner
15:05It's your turn
15:05To take the next one
15:07Clippers
15:08Attention to deep
15:09Tail offensively
15:10Pace of play
15:10Has allowed them
15:11To go on this
15:1110-0 run
15:12Excellent job
15:13Focusing
15:14Coming out of the
15:15Timeout
15:15And when you get
15:16The ball to
15:17Kawhi Leonard
15:17In transition
15:18The machine
15:20Is doing what
15:21He does best
15:23Back to a close one
15:24Early here in Portland
15:25And this season
15:26The NBA
15:27Created a new
15:28Stat
15:29That they are
15:30Calling
15:30Gravity
15:31The league
15:31Is tracking
15:32How much
15:33Of the opposition
15:34Defense's
15:35Pressure
15:36Is attached
15:37To an
15:37Offensive
15:38Player
15:39And a player
15:40That pulls
15:40The most
15:41Attention
15:42From an
15:42Opposing defense
15:43Is a leader
15:44In gravity
15:45It's tonight's
15:46Chipotle
15:47Real difference
15:48Maker
15:48So which scoring
15:49Threat
15:49Ben's defense
15:50Is towards
15:50Them the most
15:51Well to answer
15:52That question
15:52The league
15:53Identifies
15:53Kawhi Leonard
15:54As one of his
15:55Highest gravity
15:56Players
15:56With more gravity
15:57Than any other
15:58Player
15:58When he has
15:59The ball
15:59Inside
16:00The three
16:01Point line
16:01So I asked
16:01Kawhi
16:02For his
16:03Reaction
16:03To how
16:04This new
16:04Metric
16:04Describes
16:05The way
16:06He experiences
16:06The game
16:07Offensively
16:07He said
16:08It shows
16:08A respect
16:09Level
16:09From other
16:10NBA teams
16:10They're watching
16:11Games
16:11Noticing how
16:12I've been
16:12Playing
16:12And deciding
16:13To try
16:13To limit
16:14My space
16:14I guess
16:15Hard work
16:15Pays off
16:16And like
16:17With any
16:17Great player
16:18I think
16:18It's the
16:19Ultimate
16:19Respect
16:19When you
16:20See a team
16:20That's doing
16:21Anything
16:21They can
16:22To stop
16:22You
16:22From scoring
16:23The basketball
16:24Guys
16:24The Blazers
16:24Will continue
16:25To try
16:25To do
16:26So
16:26With Kawhi
16:26Here
16:26Tonight
16:27And right
16:27Now
16:28With Clippers
16:28And Blazers
16:29Are tied
16:29Thank you
16:30Lauren
16:30At 12
16:31A piece
16:31With
16:32Obdia
16:33Responding
16:33With a
16:34Three-point
16:34Play
16:34Coming out
16:35Of the
16:35Timeout
16:36Done
16:36Lopez
16:37The floater
16:39Klingon

16:44Four minutes

16:59Beautiful
16:59Move
17:00Couldn't
17:00Finish
17:00But that's
17:01The effect
17:02Of having
17:03Brook Lopez
17:04Man up
17:05The paint
17:08Lopez
17:08Feeling
17:09Good

25:07He's
25:08A

31:08Thirty
31:15Three
31:15Three
31:15Back
31:16One
31:16Four
31:30Clippers with some work to do in game 81. It's the biggest of the year when you're in the eighth
31:35spot.
31:36One way to get back into this game. You're gonna have to slow him down. Denny Adia. We've talked about
31:40it. Maybe the most improved player in the NBA. He is showing it tonight. Second time this year. He's had
31:45to slow him down.
31:45He's got 15 or more. In fact this is the most he has scored in a first quarter.
31:4916 on six of seven shooting. Getting downhill with ease. He is. But he understands where the beauty lies within
31:57his game. Which is putting pressure on the defense off the dribble. Creating contact. Getting to the free throw line.
32:03Backing your opponent up. And now. That opens it up for you to hit some. You know. Step back jump
32:09shots and have some room to operate on the perimeter. First half both Collins and Lopez out there now.
32:14Now Leonard starts the second quarter on the bench. Whistle offensive foul against Kobe Sanders.
32:19And the Clippers had a couple of opportunities to close out that first quarter. Start the second quarter with possession.
32:25Unable to capitalize.
32:26Yeah. The push off right there by said it. Easy call for the official.
32:36Scoot Henderson. A third pick back in 2023. Hamstring issues to start the year. Starting to regain some form here.
32:43But Blazers give it right back. Sanders is riding shotgun to the house.
32:47And throws it down for the first bucket of the second quarter.
32:59No zone defense here. By the Clippers.
33:022-3 zone to try to keep the ball out the middle.
33:06Sharp driven off the line.
33:08Then comes in a three. Just 34% on the year. Again. Hasn't played since February 6th.
33:14Does not look out of place in the minutes he has played here in this first half.
33:18Yeah. That's the chance you take when you put his own defense in.
33:20You're going to give up. Probably a shot on the perimeter.
33:22Sharp able to knock it in. And Kobe Sanders is right back. Not able to get it.
33:27Up and in.
33:29Sanders has shot the ball extremely well the last quarter of the season.
33:35Over 40%.
33:37Sharp.
33:41Back over to Holiday. Drives into a double team.
33:45By the reach.
33:46See, I know that's the thing. We've got to be a little bit more disciplined.
33:49Not wanting to reach down.
33:52Time out for a drive that we brought to you by Hyundai.
33:55About the activity you need. When Clippers are at their best. We've seen it all year.
33:59It's when their hands have been active. They've been getting deflections.
34:01Because now that leads to transition opportunities.
34:05In particular, when you're on the road.
34:07You want to be as active defensively as you can be.
34:11There's two fouls on Sanders.
34:13Two fouls on Collins.
34:15Two fouls on Garland.
34:16Two fouls on Dunn.
34:18Two fouls on Lopez.
34:19And two fouls on Jones.
34:21Clippers have not been able to defend without fouling.
34:23Garland misses the three.
34:24Rebound tapped off the glass by Lopez.
34:26But ultimately retrieved by Sharp.
34:29It's 39-26.
34:31Blazers out in front.
34:32Sharp the pull of three.
34:34Collins the rebound.
34:39Miller in transition.
34:41Draws the foul.
34:42Stops the clock.
34:43Just a couple of ticks inside the ten-minute mark of the second quarter.
34:47Blazers this year.
34:49Very good frontrunners.
34:5034-9 when they lead by ten or more.
34:59Lopez.
35:00Giving the space and lets it fly.
35:03Nine threes in that December 26th game in this building.
35:06So far tonight, just one for four.
35:08Henderson in overdrive.
35:10And, Brian, you can see the defense,
35:11even though he had those nine threes still playing the same kind of coverage.
35:16On Lopez.
35:17Williams to corner three and puts it in.
35:21His eighth made three of the season.
35:23Puts the Blazers out in front.
35:2642-26.
35:27I tell you what, this Blazer team,
35:30because of the confidence they've been playing with,
35:33those open shots seem like they're just money right now.
35:35Not just for tomorrow and the rest of the crew,
35:38but Williams stepping up, knocking in the big three.
35:44You and I both agree the league is at its best when the best players are available.
35:48And how about another blow to the Philadelphia 76ers and Joel Embiid?
35:52I really just don't know what else to say.
35:57And the label of being injury prone is true here.
36:01Even when he comes back healthy,
36:04it seems like it's just something else.
36:05And these appendix, it's not a sprained ankle,
36:08it's not a bat, a knee.
36:11That is just, you talk about buzzers luck,
36:14not just for him, but for the organization.
36:18You know, you put everything behind that player.
36:23Clippers come out of the timeout here.
36:25This is Garland.
36:26It's a straight-on three.
36:27It is long.
36:28Robert Williams, the leaping rebound.
36:30Clippers down by 16.
36:32They are 11-12,
36:35going back to December 20th,
36:37when trailing by 10 or more.
36:38Doesn't sound like a great mark.
36:39It's the third-best mark in the league in that time.
36:42Only one team has a winning record.
36:44That's Oklahoma City.
36:45So the Clippers have been in this position
36:47and have found success.
36:48And with it all on the line here tonight,
36:50you know they're going to battle back.
36:51Garland in the lane.
36:52They aren't going to do it by turning it over.
36:54Williams tears it away.
36:55Under nine to play in the half.
36:57Yeah, I was going to say,
36:57it's not an insurmountable lead,
36:59but it has to start on this end,
37:01and then offensively,
37:03the Clippers are really good.
37:04They're playing with more pace.
37:09Williams, another three.
37:10It's his ninth of the season,
37:12and his second of the game.
37:22Miller gets downhill.
37:23Giant steps to the rim
37:24and is fouled from behind.
37:25He'll go to the line for two.
37:27Well, I mean, the scouting report
37:28is that you're going to help off Robert Wood.
37:30That's just what it is.
37:31You see Lopez right now manning up the lane.
37:33He's coming over.
37:34Okay, so you say,
37:37well, how does he get open?
37:38That's how he gets open,
37:38because you said it, Brian.
37:40Brian, that's just his ninth of the year.
37:42Buzzer's luck for the Clippers
37:43that he's made, too.
37:47But you'd rather him taking those shots
37:49than the five-ball,
37:50than a Kamara,
37:51than a, you know,
37:53Drew Holiday.
37:54The Blazers do generate the fourth most wide-open threes in the NBA,
38:00but they have the fifth lowest percentage coming into tonight.
38:04Don't tell that to the Clipper coaching staff.
38:06But you deal with those numbers are deceiving, though, Brian,
38:09depending on who's left open.
38:11You know what I mean?
38:11Because it's a reason why Portland struggles offensively, okay?
38:16And there's a reason why this team
38:18may they shoot it at 34%,
38:21but
38:22the majority of the guys are not
38:25knocked down three-point shooters
38:26who are going to be left open.
38:29Blazers
38:31allegedly 27th in the league
38:32in three-point percentage.
38:34They are 5 of 11 here tonight.
38:35Henderson
38:36fouled by Garland,
38:38and Scoot Henderson
38:39will go to the free-throw line for a couple.
38:40But that's a challenge when you play a team that's hot,
38:44I mean, that's playing well,
38:45at home, the crowd involved.
38:47So now the basket
38:50seems a little bit more wide open
38:52and bigger,
38:53and other players step up
38:54and feel more confident
38:55and knock it down shots,
38:57you know, at a higher clip.
39:01Tiago Splitter,
39:03when they were in town last week,
39:05said he treated it like a playoff game.
39:06He actually used the word finals game.
39:08They had individual clips.
39:09They were really prepared
39:10for each and every one of their matchups.
39:13It was the biggest game
39:14to that point for the Blazers.
39:16They passed the test.
39:17Now this is the biggest game,
39:18and so far,
39:19nothing but high marks for Portland.
39:21Out in front, 47-28.
39:24Garland, the mid-range.
39:25It's good.
39:26Darius Garland with 10.
39:287.55 to play,
39:29and eternity remains.
39:30We've seen the Clippers battle back
39:31on a few occasions this year.
39:33Down 19 twice and win,
39:35and then down 24 in Indiana and win.
39:37But again, the stakes are different.
39:39Leather-Larcity,
39:40here comes Leonard the other way.
39:42Sixth possession game
39:43with three ball in the fact
39:44could just be one.
39:46Why, just a little bit short right now
39:48on his jump shot
39:50on a couple
39:51of occasions now.
39:55Kawhi 0-4-3
39:57from above the arc
39:57had come in
39:58with terrific form.
40:00Kawhi was 15
40:00of his last 29.
40:03Holiday
40:05to Williams,
40:06interrupted by Garland.
40:087.15 to play in the half.
40:10Clippers down by 17.
40:12Blazers have led by
40:13as many as 19.
40:14Miller
40:17gets into the paint
40:18and to the rim.
40:20If he's in the game,
40:21he's in the lane.
40:22Jordan Miller now
40:23with seven,
40:24and the lead is trimmed
40:25to 15.
40:25Sometimes he's got to chop wood.
40:27It's not
40:29pretty early,
40:30but at the same time,
40:32it's a lot of time.
40:32Seven minutes left here
40:33in the second quarter.
40:34Get more plays like this,
40:35get into the basket.
40:36You can cut the lead.
40:37The defense.
40:39Brian has to lead the way.
40:43Trying to slow down
40:45Denny Addi.
40:48The number of different ways
40:49that he gets into his offense.
40:51Off the dribble,
40:52in transition,
40:53the dribble handoff.
40:54His ability to kind of
40:56get by his opponent,
40:57put pressure on the rim
40:59is the reason why
41:00he's been so tough
41:02to stop all year.
41:03His relentless pursuit
41:05to just attack
41:07keeps opponents
41:08on their heels.
41:10Not an easy way
41:11to control them,
41:13but you can't bail him out
41:14by putting him
41:15to the free throw line.
41:16Already has five
41:16free throw attempts.
41:19Scoring plus seven
41:21from a year ago
41:21and had his most prolific
41:23first quarter of the season
41:24with 16.
41:25Lauren was in the huddle.
41:26Lauren, what do you got?
41:27Brian, thank you.
41:28As has become customary
41:29since the trade deadline,
41:30John Collins
41:31super communicative
41:32in that huddle.
41:33Encouragement,
41:34as is customary,
41:35from Collins.
41:36He says,
41:36stay aggressive.
41:38And a moment
41:38from assistant coach
41:39Dante Jones as well,
41:40urging the guys
41:41to get their bodies
41:42in front of the ball quicker.
41:44Get stops,
41:45stay together,
41:46continue to communicate
41:47was the message
41:48in that one.
41:49Well, if we've said
41:50anything about
41:50John Collins all year
41:51is that the vibes
41:52are always immaculate.
41:54John Collins
41:54coming off the bench
41:55once again
41:56to be the backup center
41:57for Brooke Lopez.
41:58While we were away,
42:00the starting center.
42:01Brooke Lopez,
42:01big defensive play
42:02at the rim.
42:03Crime of passion
42:03from Kling
42:04on the other way
42:05and the Clippers
42:06have it the foul
42:06for the Blazers,
42:07their third in the quarter.
42:12Lopez sets the screen.
42:14Kawhi's able to operate.
42:15Now draws a crowd,
42:16steps around it.
42:18Ball movement.
42:19Miller.
42:21Yeah, that's five
42:22but plucking it
42:23from the back
42:24and I'd be a big transition.
42:26I mean,
42:26it was two or three dribbles
42:27he was already at the rim.
42:28Again,
42:28those live ball turnovers
42:30just plucked away
42:31when you're not ready
42:32to get back on defense
42:33just compromises
42:35what you do in transition.
42:37Kawhi down the lane,
42:38an awkward shot
42:38and Kling on the rebound
42:40when Optia was in the game
42:41for the first 12 minutes,
42:42the Blazers were a plus six.
42:43When he sat,
42:44the Blazers were a plus nine.
42:46Midway through
42:47the second quarter.
42:48It's a 17-point advantage.
42:52Optia drives and dishes
42:54to Kamara.
42:54Hasn't hit the rim yet
42:55on a three.
42:56Optia the three outs.
42:59One of the few things
43:00that Optia
43:02doesn't do well
43:02at 32%.
43:04You'd rather see him
43:06out on the perimeter
43:07than doing this.
43:08And it's the reason
43:09why he drives the ball.
43:10He understands
43:11that the weakest part
43:12of his game
43:12is shooting from distance.
43:14Look at that defense
43:15just swarming
43:16everywhere right now
43:17for the Trail Blazers.
43:19Kamara out and running.
43:21What a play.
43:23Can't get it to go.
43:24I'm not sure
43:25I was more impressed
43:26with the defense
43:26or the hustle
43:27for the Blazers
43:28on that other side.
43:29Done the other way
43:29with 5.20 to play
43:30in the quarter.
43:31Leonard
43:33and his pull-up
43:34is off.
43:34He's 4 of 11
43:35in this first half.
43:36Clippers trail by 17.
43:38Both teams
43:39in a bit of a holding
43:40pattern right now.
43:415.10 to play
43:42and the Blazers
43:43lead by 17.
43:44And unfortunately
43:45that holding pattern
43:46still favors the Blazers
43:47as the Clippers
43:49can't cut into this lead.
43:51We're going to hit
43:52a 3 earlier.
43:53Hits another one.
43:54That's 6 triples
43:55for Portland
43:56in the first half.
43:58I tell you,
43:59we'll get San Antonio.
44:00This Portland team
44:00when they found the ribbon
44:01they had 7 3-pointers
44:02in the first quarter.
44:04of the 6 made 3s.
44:064 of them
44:06are from the centers.
44:08Miller knocks down
44:09a 3 to retaliate.
44:1152-45.
44:13Blazers this year
44:1316-20
44:15when leading by 20.
44:16Beg your pardon,
44:1716-0
44:18when leading by 20.
44:19We've got a timeout.
44:214.34 to play
44:22in the half.
44:23It's 52-35.

44:58And Abdiah
44:58offline all the way
44:59and the rebound
45:00knocked out of bounds.
45:01They're going to see
45:02last touch by the Clippers.
45:03And Abdiah
45:04since All-Star break
45:05Brian
45:05going to shoot 20%
45:07from behind a three-point line.
45:08So if there's an area
45:10where you want to
45:11keep him and force him
45:12to shoot it
45:13it's there.
45:14Do we have a twirl?
45:16I think Ty Lue
45:17wants to chat about this one.
45:18Coach's challenge
45:19coming up here
45:20on that out-of-bounds call
45:214.24 to play.
45:23We'll keep it here.
45:25Los Angeles
45:26has called a timeout
45:27to sign up the previous
45:28out-of-bounds ruling
45:29awarded to Portland.
45:32You think about this
45:33right now the Clippers
45:34three free throw attempts
45:36three for three.
45:3712 for 15 for Portland
45:39so who's been more aggressive
45:40getting fouls?
45:40Portland.
45:42An area where
45:43they put a lot of pressure
45:44on the Cleveland
45:45I mean on the Clipper defense
45:47that went off
45:47that went off
45:48with Brooke I think.
45:51Are they looking for a hold
45:52maybe?
45:53Are they looking for a hold
45:54for a hold on collegiate
45:56maybe the reverse to call
45:57and you mentioned the fouls.
46:05Clippers have five players
46:07with two fouls.
46:08The Blazers don't have one
46:10player with two fouls.
46:12Remember the first two
46:13possessions in a game for the
46:14Blazers he picked up it was
46:16not being picked up a foul
46:18and also
46:21Drew Holiday.
46:39The Fishers are looking at this
46:41too now it was there a foul that
46:43happened when they're looking
46:46at it why Brooke Lopez
46:48couldn't secure the rebound.
46:51Because if not it's obvious
46:52that it went off a brook.
46:53So you wouldn't need that much
46:55time that they were looking at
46:55the shot clock.
46:57Game clock.
46:58Come and see where things are
46:59at.
47:00So.
47:08The Clippers trailing 52 to 35.
47:11Portland has been impressive.
47:13We mentioned the experience and
47:15will it come into play in ties
47:16up like we don't match their
47:17energy and execution doesn't
47:18matter.
47:19Well I mean Scoot Henderson is
47:21standing out of bounds and the
47:22Fisher has the ball.
47:24So doesn't look like it's being
47:28overturned and I guess they're
47:29looking at how much time is on the
47:31clock maybe.
47:35Well for such a routine call
47:37I know it's taking quite a minute
47:39here.
47:41So 425 on the clock and did it
47:45hit the rim.
47:49After review the ball last
47:51contacts Lopez.
47:52Therefore the on-court ruling of
47:54Portland's ball will remain.
47:56Los Angeles Channington
47:57unsuccessful.
47:57They're charged a timeout and do
47:59not retain the ability to challenge
48:00the rest of the game.
48:01Thank you.
48:03Well you heard it there.
48:04No challenge now the rest of the
48:05game for the Clippers.
48:07425 to play in this half.
48:11It is a long way to go here in this
48:13game.
48:14But boy the Blazers have answered
48:15every run the Clippers have put on.
48:17it's a long way to go here in this
48:18So using that challenge right
48:19there not getting it as tough
48:22and this is I played this way I
48:26played for this team and I know
48:30what it means to these fans and
48:33they're into this game and they've
48:35been in it Brian you never for
48:38tip ball Miller drives inside
48:40flirt to the defense can't get it
48:42to go Lopez can tap it in.
48:48Klingon and Robert Williams are
48:52five of six from the three-point
48:54line.
48:56Well the Blazers overall shoot 53
48:59percent.
48:59Great defense by Miller makes the
49:01grab from his wallet hands it off to
49:04Garland three and a half to play in
49:05and a half Garland tough pass knocked
49:13out of bounds by the it'll stay with
49:15the Clippers plenty of time to
49:16shoot they're doing a really good
49:19job to limiting Darius Garland from
49:23getting by his initial defender to
49:25break the defense down maybe there's
49:28ways to get him on the second side
49:30catch him coming off the screen while
49:32he's moving that he could get to it
49:34and pass his opponent Leonard Lopez
49:37alone for the three holds the finish
49:40and knocks it down it's his second
49:41three he's got ten it's 55 40 15
49:45point lead for Portland.
49:54Obvious given some space and lets it
49:56fly this one rings the rim rebound
49:57bat it around and the Blazers always
50:00taken away by Kawhi and the official
50:04from across the floor makes the call
50:09Wow he called that on Kawhi he's not
50:13lending much of an argument no he's
50:14not let's see right oh you grabbed
50:19it well all right there that that's
50:22where the file was that Michael
50:23Orvin was that on the bottom may
50:26have been blocked official and you
50:30know Scott maybe had a better angle
50:32in her view to see the grab by Kawhi
50:35like you said Kawhi didn't argue was
50:38facial expression maybe he was ready
50:42was 56 40 and as you pointed out
50:50before in games like this moments
50:52like this can you get it to single
50:53digits heading into halftime
50:54numbers have time to do it Garland
50:57accelerates changes pace great pass in
51:00the corner done the rhythm dribble for
51:01three it's good for Chris Dunn and
51:03that scratches him right where he itches
51:05just two of eleven in his last couple
51:06of ballgames
51:10because of trim seven points off the lead
51:16Kamara the wing three holiday the
51:19offensive rebound backs it back outside
51:21with two and a half to play in the
51:23second quarter holiday picked up by his
51:26one-time teammate in Lopez the three
51:28wide left running the rebound the put
51:30back no but I'll go to the line for two
51:32and that's it was mismatches on both
51:36ends because you had Lopez on drew
51:39holiday and watch Garland right in the
51:41done in the corner and a ball fake
51:44rhythm dribble but then on the back
51:47side of this when the shot goes up
51:49Clingon has an advantage that time
51:52over Jordan Miller able to pick up
51:56that offensive rebound for offensive
51:58rebound number six fifteen now for
52:01Clingon averages 12 on the year we
52:06mentioned big games obviously out of
52:07UConn he's played in some pretty
52:09big games and two national
52:10champions championships he's been
52:13there an asset to to this blazer
52:16team from a rim protector but also
52:19you see the stroke from behind the
52:22three point line creeps in space
52:25there also timely compared him last
52:27week to Brooke Lopez a younger
52:29version obviously they do a lot of
52:31the same things tend to shoot Miller
52:35Kawhi right place right time goes up
52:38for the shot
52:43sometimes you just got to be
52:44aggressive initiate offense
52:47initiate contact Miller trying to
52:50get it back and sometimes you got to
52:52be lucky man the ball bounces right to
52:54you Kawhi Klingon is like what did I do
52:59well went up against the claw you
53:01got a foul called on you the first
53:04have not done much to create their
53:06own luck they need to start doing
53:08so now Leonard up and down on a
53:10three-point play but you know what
53:11I don't run it as dire as it seems it
53:13seemed like this would be a 20 30
53:15point game
53:16you know it's only 12 points and
53:18that's something
53:20Clippers you got to look at you still
53:21got time to cut into it again good
53:23defense and close off that time by
53:25Garland
53:251.45 to play it's a 12-point game
53:28Kawhi
53:30gives to Garland
53:35Miller the three wide right
53:37bringing the rebound for the Blazers
53:3990 seconds to play in the half
53:41and I don't know if Miller really
53:42wanted to shoot that one Brian
53:44he's leaning into it a little bit more
53:46felt himself felt that he was open
53:50holiday draws a crowd Murray the three
53:54it is good just 26 percent on the
53:57year some maybe not prolific or
53:59non-shooters making some big shots
54:01when they matter it's 6146 Blazers
54:04Kawhi inside Garland wide open for
54:07three but that's six of 21 what I was
54:11an example you talked about getting
54:13the most shots off a dribble
54:15penetration for Portland with Murray
54:21blocked by Miller recovered by Miller
54:23with holiday to beat slows the roll
54:26and hands to Garland Kawhi the open
54:28three bullseye 61 49
54:39trying to close with Christian the boy
54:41a stop and a score would go a long way
54:43obvious steamroll Garland whistle
54:45offensive foul we're going the other way
54:47and how about this right when the ball
54:49came start to come down the court it
54:51was Ty Lue and also Jeff Van Gundy
54:54yelling to which was going to a 2-3 zone
54:57so that took away the lane in the driving
55:01opportunity for Adia and then in
55:05transition defense is back but not
55:08identifying where the claw is at another
55:11opportunity here Brian to get this lead two
55:15double digits or underneath
55:23Cedis de Sissoko is out there Garland tries to probe inside finds Lopez in the corner for three
55:30Kawhi make it done inside puts it up and in it's a ten point game 18 seconds to play the
55:37shot clock is turned off the Clippers do not have a foul to give
55:42back to it they're gonna go back into this 2-3 zone right here
55:53good ball move McMurray ahead of the horn that'll do it the Clippers close on a 16-6 run it
56:00was 20
56:0260 plus for the Blazers it's down to 10
