00:00Performance base it's kind of cool to be able to follow along and he missed the second one too.
00:04So Steph's getting at 93% getting a couple missed free throws out of the way.
00:09So that doesn't happen Wednesday.
00:12There is Garland battling that home dropping in at three.
00:16So Steph is missing free throws and the Clippers are getting those types of shooters roles.
00:21Clippers 7 of 18 from deep.
00:23Rebuilding that double digit lead.
00:26And Zing is with Batheron on him.
00:30First time he's going to back him down and lean into him and flip it up and in.
00:33He's small defenders around him.
00:34Even two small defenders.
00:36It's okay.
00:37At that time he didn't mess around with it too much.
00:39Give him a chance to steal it.
00:40Anything goofy could happen.
00:41The final minute of the half.
00:43Garland gets Porzingis on a switch.
00:48Circling around.
00:49Look all the way back to the three point line.
00:51And then re-attack.
00:53Out to Dunn that quarter of three that he's been working on.
00:56But Steph for the rebound.
00:57Now you go two for one.
01:00Now put it off for Al Horford.
01:04Santos.
01:05So clever.
01:06That counts as a geese.
01:08It does.
01:09I laid out to wait for you to say it.
01:11The geese is going to be with him the rest of his career.
01:14It is.
01:18Eight second game shot clock difference.
01:22Garland at the controls here.
01:25Now down to five to shoot.
01:28The roller Derrick Jones is a high flyer.
01:30And Porzingis flat-footed block.
01:33Steph's got seven seconds to work with with Guy Santos.
01:36And skip pass to Curry.
01:39For Jevsky to end the half.
01:41And he bottoms a three.
01:43So the Warriors a little push right before halftime.
01:46He got that happening at the end of the first quarter and the second quarter.
01:49So buzzer beaters galore.
01:51And the Warriors did not shoot it well in the first half.
01:54They have work to do certainly.
01:56But the last couple minutes looked a lot better.
02:00Monte, Molly, Festus in the studio.
02:03Warrior halftime live.
02:04Presented by Jack in the Box.
02:05On the way with the Clippers up four at the break.
02:19Sunday evening at dusk in L.A.
02:21With the Clippers lead at four.
02:23And the Bukies big-time bifocals.
02:25There was some scoring inside, Cave.
02:27You're not hitting from the outside.
02:28Go inside.
02:30Bukies big-time bifocals brought to you by your Bay Area Chevy dealers.
02:33They did it in a lot of ways.
02:34Under, out of bounds.
02:35You're going to get GP2 going the wheel route.
02:37Look at Garland.
02:38He's going to kind of work over here.
02:40Start cheating off.
02:41And you're going to get GP2 right down the middle.
02:44And you've got Steph Curry taking the ball out of the bounds.
02:46So he's got great vision.
02:48You know he's going to see it.
02:49Fires it right in there.
02:5122 points in the paint.
02:52That's one way to get in there.
02:54GP2 loves that.
02:55Now you're going to get a really good screen.
02:57And then you get KP going inside.
02:58Freeze it.
02:59One, two, three guys on one.
03:01You can make this work.
03:03He sees Al Horford swing it.
03:06Now you're just going drive and kick.
03:07Drive and kick.
03:08Keep making them work.
03:10They're in scramble mode.
03:11You got them right where you want them.
03:13You get a layup.
03:14That's good offense there.
03:16And then Steph and KP working together.
03:18Freeze it there.
03:19You get the screen there.
03:20Steph's going this way.
03:22Garland's fighting over the top.
03:23So it's open.
03:24Look at all this space inside.
03:28You're not going to get any help.
03:29KP, you can throw it late.
03:31He's so wide open.
03:33And Miller tries to get over there.
03:34But Steph's got teardrops in his game.
03:37Well, the KFC bucket chart, no one's getting chicken.
03:41Because you're not making anything.
03:43Bro.
03:43I mean, now inside, yes.
03:44But, man, that is a lot of X's at the three-point line.
03:48But this is good because you're getting all your misses out of the way for Wednesday.
03:52Okay.
03:52I like that.
03:53Come on.
03:53Like, just get them out of the way.
03:54And the fact that you've only turned the ball over five times, you'll absolutely live with that.
03:59Well, we're laughing about it a little bit, but you just hit on it.
04:02Five turnovers in the first half.
04:04Shot attempts.
04:05Chances at rebounds.
04:07Working inside.
04:08Like, that is why it's a four-point game despite shooting 37% as a team.
04:13And your defense has been pretty good holding them to 52 points.
04:16I think you can live with that as well.
04:18It's obviously going to be much different and a bigger challenge with Kawhi on Wednesday.
04:22But he held them to 7 for 19 from a three-point range.
04:27They got to the free-throw line a little bit there.
04:28I'm going to ask you the unknowable.
04:30Are you seeing some Porzingis and Curry?
04:34And then Horford, Porzingis, Curry.
04:36Are you seeing some of these little wrinkles?
04:38I am.
04:38We just showed one of them in the bifocals.
04:40We've seen some Steph Curry, KP ball screens.
04:44Al Horford knows how to work with those guys.
04:47You want those guys in the action as much as possible.
04:49And we have seen some cross-matching, some switches where you get smaller defenders on KP.
04:55You've got to give him the ball there.
04:56We've seen the Clippers have to react to that.
04:58Double teams here and there.
05:00You throw it back out and just play out of it.
05:02Yeah, I think the one thing 15 games with Porzingis, when he has a smaller defender,
05:06they are recognizing give him the ball.
05:08He can shoot over it every time.
05:11Eric Jones opening the second half, missing off back iron.
05:14So, Steph, Melton, Pajemski with Al Horford and Porzingis.
05:17Same five at the start of the game.
05:19No Draymond today.
05:22There stops.
05:23A lot of contact from Brooke Lopez.
05:25And there is a foul.
05:26And again, Steph and KP working together.
05:29It was close quarters, but Steph figured out how to get it to him.
05:31Just a little bounce pass right in front of him.
05:34And then KP is just kind of leaning in there and drawing the foul.
05:38And Lopez is going to have his hands full because even if you don't get a switch,
05:42if you've got Lopez on KP, KP kind of has the quickest advantage.
05:47And he's skilled enough to figure out a way to get it up and in.
05:51You just love that he's getting a few more reps in here with Steph Curry.
05:55And I think that's one of the reasons Steph Curry wanted to play so much in this game.
05:59And you get Lopez with four fouls.
06:00If that were Wednesday, Niederhauser is out for the season and you've traded away Zubats.
06:06All of a sudden, the Clippers get real small.
06:08They do.
06:09Obviously, you're always trying to get in the bonus as soon as you can in any quarter.
06:13Porzingis, an 84% free throw.
06:15Knocks them both in.
06:17Garland losing the handle, but let's say the Warriors touched it last.
06:21Warriors are showing him a lot of bodies in there.
06:23Warriors are trying to make it look clogged up.
06:25Get your deflections up.
06:27Jerry Stackhouse, I like that action.
06:29They live to see another day, though.
06:30They got 14 seconds with the ball boy in there to wipe it down.
06:34You got the wall over here making noise.
06:38I like the wall.
06:39It's a good concept.
06:40I like the video board, too.
06:45Two-of-eight shooting with a floater off glass, rimming out, but he will get to the line.
06:49That's my favorite part of his game, his float game.
06:52And he came off that screen.
06:54The defender wasn't able to lock and trail.
06:57Kind of got a little disconnected there, and it gave him a bad angle to cut off Garland.
07:02Can I just be a kid again for one more time?
07:05Do it.
07:05Winston Garland, his dad, played for the Clippers, played for the Warriors.
07:09Winston Garland, as a guard, in warm-ups, had so much bounce in the pre-game layup line.
07:15As a kid, I used to love watching him hammer dunk as a guard.
07:21I couldn't believe it.
07:22Then to see Darius play in the league and be such a good player.
07:25But every time I see Darius, I always think of his dad.
07:27He's a wild thing.
07:29I think a lot of people take it for granted.
07:31You're talking about his dad, and all of a sudden his son is in the league.
07:33I mean, what an amazing thing for that family.
07:36Steph and his brother, Seth, playing together.
07:39This is crazy that these things are happening.
07:41Yeah, GP2, and first NBA game I ever called his dad.
07:44Gary Payton, the original play with Sean Kepp, Clay Thompson, and his father, Michael Thompson.
07:51For Ferdinand, his dad, Tito, who played in the league.
07:54Al missing the three there.
07:57Darius, nice delivery.
07:58He hung in the air and waited for Collins to slice in the lane.
08:01And that's the other thing about Garland.
08:04He can get penetration almost any time he wants.
08:06He's got that quickness.
08:08Steph Curry, wing three.
08:10Rim that out.
08:11Steph was the only one having a shooting day.
08:13He was four of eight, but with the miss, four of nine.
08:18Horford's not going to jump in Collins initially.
08:23Garland, a very deep three.
08:26Al Horford, the rebound in motion.
08:27Al Horford's great defense allowed everybody else to stay home.
08:31Steph, the ball handling around Lopez.
08:33Put it up and in.
08:34And that Curry magic.
08:36A little double cross will do you right.
08:40Chris Dunn, getting by Melton.
08:43Flipping that off iron and in.
08:48Jamsky with his feet set.
08:50Rimmed out that three.
08:51The Warriors can't find it from deep right now.
08:53Six of 27.
08:55Get him out the way.
08:59Swing, swing to Derrick Jones from deep.
09:02Jamsky rebound.
09:04Melinda mentioned it early.
09:05Get something going for the Clippers.
09:08Get back on D.
09:09But short.
09:10Need to make some of these shots.
09:13High flyer Jones.
09:14Found off to Collins.
09:15Steph saved the day.
09:16Steph with a good swipe down and steal.
09:18It's a four on two.
09:20Curry the trail three.
09:21Yes, sir.
09:23He got his legs into that one.
09:25That was a Curry sequence.
09:27Andre Godal is somewhere smiling again with that strip block.
09:30And he's like, I'll reward myself and pay it off.
09:33So Steph's got 17.
09:38Richmond down by as many as 11.
09:40Within three right now.
09:42All in.
09:45You see, Horford, it just doesn't buy for a lot of pump fakes.
09:48It forces more difficult shots.
09:50Melton came back to bat it.
09:54Jamsky on the catch with the run and get himself to the line.
09:57You know what created that?
09:58Steph Curry running and going through.
10:00And taking defenders with him.
10:02Cleared the lane for Jamsky.
10:04Warriors are playing good basketball now.
10:06Look at the little ball fake after the little UTEP two-step.
10:09Looking like Tim Hardaway.
10:10Double cross.
10:11Nice.
10:12Come on now.
10:13And then the strip block on the other side.
10:15And now he's going to pay it off.
10:17And I love D'Anthony Melton understanding what's happening.
10:22The shooter is running.
10:24Feed that man and let him eat.
10:27And Pajamsky, that last drive we saw, I mentioned earlier.
10:31But he does kind of remind me.
10:32They're not the same player.
10:33But he does kind of remind me of a shorter Denny Avdia when he's driving.
10:37When he's running off the catch driving like that.
10:41Because that's exactly what Denny Avdia was doing.
10:43And the Clippers struggled to stop it in that game.
10:46That was the main issue they had defensively.
10:48So you want to do this as much as possible on Wednesday.
10:51Drive through the catch.
10:53A lot of times with the ball movement, you know where your drive is going to be.
10:56You know where your angle is going to be.
10:58Run through the catch.
10:59I waited him to make that second.
11:02Pajamsky is at 80% free throwing for the year.
11:06I think that would be an amazing number for Potts.
11:09I agree.
11:10The free throws have been so good.
11:12I'm just happy that he's still able to finish his game after.
11:15I knew he would.
11:16Banged up a little bit earlier.
11:17One of 18 guys to play all 82 in the NBA this year.
11:21Brandon Pajamsky.
11:22Warriors are in a zone right now.
11:23Testing this out for Wednesday.
11:25Collins off front iron.
11:26Horford with a rebound.
11:27When you've got Horford and Porzingis, you've got some size there on the glass.
11:31Double big zone.
11:32It worked out that time.
11:34So the Warriors within one.
11:36Steph kind of directing traffic.
11:39Porzingis big to big passing.
11:41Nick Horford.
11:42Then Steph back out to KP for three.
11:45Now you want that to go down.
11:47That's a sequence that Steve Kerr is playing with right there.
11:50That's a Steph Curry KP split action.
11:52That is a lethal split action.
11:54That big is going to be nowhere near Porzingis.
11:57Especially Steph's in it.
11:58Nice finish by Garland.
12:00Because Steph took the two defenders in.
12:02That's why KP got that wide open shot.
12:04He'll live with those.
12:05Oh, he goes around.
12:06Jones flips it up and out.
12:08And then Curry.
12:09He'll have the foul.
12:10There's nothing you can do with that handle.
12:11That's too many moves.
12:13This is it.
12:14If you're a kid and you shoot deep because you love Steph.
12:17Learn to dribble like Steph.
12:19Oh, my goodness.
12:21Unmatched.
12:22Derrick Jones, one of the best defenders in the league, by the way.
12:24Made him look crazy.
12:26He is not just a shooter.
12:28I'll put you on the spot.
12:29Are Kyrie and Steph the best ball handlers?
12:33For sure.
12:33Okay.
12:33They are.
12:34And it's just different ball hand.
12:36I feel like Steph is closer like Pete Maravich loose kind of ball handling.
12:42Okay.
12:43And Kyrie is more of a tighter handle.
12:47And really low to the ground, really compact handle.
12:51I don't know that a lot of guys have a better left hand than Steph Curry.
12:53True, true.
12:54I mean, he can finish with either hand.
12:56All those ball handling drills.
12:58Isaiah Thomas back in the day was a man.
13:00Oh, man.
13:00Yeah, no, I'm just talking current Kyrie Steph.
13:03No, no, no, no.
13:04Yeah.
13:05So Portland, look, there's nine hours, 215 seconds left in that third quarter.
13:11It's going to be a long day.
13:13We're going to miss off lights.
13:15So inside, eight minutes remaining in the third.
13:17Rick Lopez, you've got to honor him out there.
13:21There's no doubt about it.
13:22At 36 percent, they're doing it for 18 years.
13:26He was cheating off and wanted to protect the paint.
13:30Curry's spinning around.
13:31Jones moved his feet.
13:32He's Santos.
13:34He doubled.
13:35Skip pass to Al.
13:37Steph Curry with Derek Jones bothering him.
13:41That's a rare air ball.
13:42The wall is going nuts in the building.
13:45Get those out of the way.
13:46But the fact that Guy Santos drew the double team, that's great offense.
13:50Someone else has drawn a double team while Steph Curry and Chris Stapps-Razengas are out there.
13:56Come on now.
13:56That has to build up a Wednesday.
13:58Harlem.
14:00GP2 bothered him on that.
14:01And then you get a foul on the rebound on the Warriors.
14:05Because that's great recognition on the other side from Guy Santos.
14:08I have a small defender.
14:10Let me not just stand here and watch Steph Curry play and Chris Stapps-Razengas play.
14:14I can create an advantage here.
14:16So, I create the double team.
14:17Get the ball moving around and you get a semi-open shot for Steph Curry.
14:21You'll take that on Wednesday.
14:23So, Porazengas with five fouls.
14:24Minute-wise, you're not too worried about that.
14:27After this game.
14:30Just can't hack as much as you want.
14:34Garland.
14:35He's gotten inside a couple times.
14:36He started two of eight.
14:38But now in double figures.
14:40Showing patience there.
14:41He kind of took his time.
14:43Now, Horford catch and shoot three.
14:45Now, Horford's looked really good this game.
14:48I thought Horford looked good in Sacramento, too, with all the time off.
14:51It usually looks pretty good.
14:53But Horford played 16 minutes already today.
14:57He's missing the defensive end.
14:58Absolutely.
14:59With Lopez again, it made one-three.
15:01But Curry will head the other way.
15:03Down three.
15:06Six-and-a-half remaining in the quarter.
15:09GP2 had it.
15:10He missed him.
15:10He knows it.
15:13DeSanto's driving now.
15:15He's saying, I'll get the layup anyway, but couldn't finish there.
15:19And then done.
15:20Whirling Derby's save.
15:23We're running to Collins.
15:24So, you miss a layup on one end and get it dunked down on the other.
15:28They're not the fastest-paced team in the league,
15:30but they're opportunists when it comes to fast-break opportunities.
15:33John Collins is having a game.
15:35Curry.
15:35Curry at the end of the – what?
15:38Yeah, what was going on there?
15:40They're going to call it – they're going to call an offensive foul.
15:44Steph shot that.
15:45So, timeout on the floor.
15:47Clipper lead is five.
15:50Very likely, these same two teams hit up Wendy's for a Baconator made fresh for you.
15:54Open until midnight or later.
15:581,644 high school jerseys from the state of California
16:03displayed here at the Intuit Dome.
16:05Where's that Sarah Padre jersey?
16:07I was looking for –
16:08Give me the Barry Bonds varsity basketball jersey.
16:10I know, right?
16:11I was looking for a Baron Davis jersey.
16:12He attended crossroads school.
16:14So, the longest present streak for winning seasons, the Clippers at 14.
16:20They come in tonight 41-40, try to extend it to 15.
16:24But in NBA history, that's some great success right there.
16:28And I'm sure Ty Lue would tell you, we want to have postseason success now.
16:32That's the goal here.
16:34And they've got a lot of work on their hands to do it.
16:39See that, you know, 14 winning seasons, and then where are those six warrior trips to the finals of the
16:45four titles?
16:45I think, like you said, it's good to have a winning year, though.
16:48No doubt for your fans.
16:50San Antonio, the most impressive.
16:5222 straight for all playoff season.
16:55Pajemski, it will be said it is not in the act of shooting.
16:59Matt Calio has the foul on the ground.
17:02He had not begun the upward shooting motion.
17:04Another run-through-the-catch type of move.
17:08And Darius Garland just had a bad angle, couldn't hold his line.
17:14The Clippers have 14 fouls now, so you drive like that one more time, stay aggressive, get another foul on
17:21him, you're in the bonus.
17:22That foul did occur before Brandon went to the upward shooting motion.
17:26That's no continuation.
17:28Steph Curry later in that three.
17:31That was such a good way.
17:32Steph acted like he was about to set his screen, then he turned around and got his screen for GP2.
17:37His defender got clipped just enough, got some suffering.
17:39That is an amazing play.
17:41His defender got clipped.
17:43See what you did there.
17:44Steph Curry's got 22.
17:46Down to a two-point game.
17:48Garland hanging and firing off-iron.
17:51Lopez with the rebound.
17:52Lopez couldn't finish there.
17:54Will the Warriors a chance to tie or take the lead?
17:59DeSantos had Garland size-wise interchange with Steph.
18:04Wojemski, good closeout there by Matherin.
18:07Couldn't get the three off.
18:09Warford for three.
18:11Off-iron.
18:12DeSantos will track it down.
18:13DeSantos will track it down.
18:14DeSantos will cross over.
18:15DeSantos will track it down.
18:24DeSantos will track it down.
18:26Again, he knew exactly what to do with it.
18:28He's just staying aggressive.
18:30After being down 11, the Warriors have tied things.
18:34Matherin missing that wing three.
18:37And McMatherin with 13 today.
18:39Two of five on threes.
18:42Stephon Lopez.
18:43Two men run with him as usual.
18:45Walks out.
18:45When you say run through the catch, he was already running without dribbling.
18:50I forgot his run through the catch, but eventually put the ball on the floor.
18:53But look at DeSantos.
18:55This is exactly what I think Steph Curry would want.
18:59Coach Kerr would want.
19:00Everybody has to stay aggressive.
19:02Yeah, Steph Curry's on the floor.
19:04But you're live now.
19:06Your game has blossomed.
19:07You've shown us.
19:08You have more moves than people think.
19:09He's shown us the entire repertoire.
19:11You have to stay a threat out there, and he's doing that.
19:14And DeSantos, remember, had that pelvic injury.
19:17He's moving better.
19:18Much better.
19:18Steph is moving better.
19:19And just from a health standpoint, you're feeling better about Wednesday night.
19:23Especially with that move, you can tell.
19:24Anytime you see that type of explosion, you know he's testing out that pelvic muscle.
19:31Back in the zone.
19:32It's worked out for the Warriors here.
19:34Malafi Leones in with Pat Spencer, Will Richards.
19:37Garland able to get inside.
19:38And you don't want to give that seam there.
19:41But there is Garland in double figures along with Collins.
19:44That's a Matherin.
19:45That's a veteran savvy from Garland.
19:47A lot of people would be scared to drive his own like he just did.
19:51Pat Spencer didn't get enough contact and couldn't get the angle on the bank shot.
19:55Matherin on the – he will pick up the foul and flip it up and end.
20:00Matherin, again, he got going in the first half on the offensive glass.
20:03Saw one go in.
20:04Now he's having a game.
20:06This is a really important game for Matherin.
20:08Just to find his rhythm.
20:09And Malafi Leones was at a disadvantage.
20:12He had him on his heels.
20:14Ben Matherin is a menace.
20:16Well, the open court.
20:17We said four for 18 his last three games.
20:20So heading into their postseason, Matherin five of nine.
20:23And showing Ty Lue, hey, I can be part of the rotation.
20:27For sure.
20:28Because they really need the bench to show up.
20:30That was kind of a weak spot for them all season is get a missed free throw.
20:34And Derek Jones Jr. gets the offensive rebound.
20:39They had a lane violation.
20:42And then the foul on the rebound does the bench points.
20:46They've actually shown improvement when it comes to the bench points.
20:48Last time we saw, they were 29th in bench points.
20:50Now they're 19th.
20:52The Warriors were hoping to win that battle, and we'll be hoping to win that Wednesday night.
20:56Their third has kind of been a bright spot for the Warriors all season, even with all the injuries.
21:01So Jordan Miller to inbound.
21:09Garland will pull up for three.
21:11And that rebound, Malafi Leones came back, and he was fouled.
21:17A little bit of frustration there from Garland after that one.
21:20He just had to sprint back, vacate the premises.
21:23Well, he's one of five on threes for a good month and a half.
21:27He was nearly 50% on threes after the trade.
21:29He showed some restraint after that one.
21:31It's one of those mama said, if you ain't got nothing to say, don't say nothing at all.
21:35Just run back.
21:36But to your point, now the Warriors in the bonus.
21:39Every whistle the rest of the way, shooting free throws.
21:43It's good to see Malafi Leones get some good minutes here in the last game.
21:50Malafi's just happy to have that right wrist working again.
21:52And hit a three in Sacramento.
21:54Yeah, his right-handed free throw looks much different than his left-handed one.
21:59Tell you what, though.
21:59Look that he made one was wild.
22:01He's got good spirit about him.
22:02He was at breakfast today, also in a great mood.
22:05Always.
22:05So appreciative to be in the league and dropping in both free throws.
22:09I don't think I've ever seen him without a smile on his face.
22:12Yep, I agree.
22:15Two-point game.
22:18That's only a ten-point game.
22:20Sacramento make a little push.
22:22Portland's got to win that to secure that eighth spot.
22:28Malafi played the D.
22:29The ricochet to Will Richard and then out of bounds to the Warriors.
22:33I think you've got to...
22:34Oh, no, yeah, out of bounds, yeah.
22:36That Lopez crashed into him there, but Warriors will take it.
22:41Warriors really working defensively here.
22:46Pat Spencer is working with Bassey.
22:50With three clippers, shot clocked at 15.
22:55Bassey wants it on the roll.
22:57The pump fake and the finish.
22:59That's a big man that knows what he's doing around the rim.
23:01He knew Derrick Jones Jr. was rotating over.
23:03Two defenders stayed with Will Richard.
23:05They got it to him, but he didn't just crash in there and a little reckless.
23:09He found a way to finish.
23:11Garland has an extra gear that a lot of guards don't possess.
23:16But there is Garland now with 15.
23:18Clippers are happy to see him playing well.
23:21Like I said, he's different than a hardened player.
23:24And an all-star.
23:28Bassey, no mid-range.
23:30Charles, I didn't know he had that.
23:32They're going to have to have a conversation with Charles Bassey,
23:35multiple conversations this summer with him.
23:37He's had a really good stint here.
23:39He's got seven points in nine minutes.
23:41This is game five in a Warrior uniform.
23:43He's different than all the other Warrior bigs.
23:46Matherin stepped around.
23:47Nice finish.
23:48We're seeing some buckets in this quarter.
23:51That's how you can tell he's in rhythm now.
23:53That was a tough move.
23:54I've seen Anthony Edwards throw that move at people.
23:57That's not an easy one to do.
23:58You've got to have some footwork.
23:59Matherin at 38 off the bench as a clipper.
24:02Seth Curry, leave him alone.
24:04You know where that three is going.
24:06All the defenders just ran to the paint.
24:09The Dubs from 11 down to take the lead.
24:15Foul with Matherin and Malafy getting tied out.
24:20Minute 55 remaining in the third.
24:23The offense has come along for the ride this quarter.
24:31San Leandro as well as the other finalists.

24:39Grand Prize Teachers School gets $30,000.
24:43I love it.
24:45This is fantastic.
24:47Way to go Providence Credit Union.
24:49Our GMC drive of the game.
24:53And the way the Warriors were attacking in the first half.
24:57Al Horford, he's still big.
24:59And he's not just going to settle for threes.
25:01It's playing off his step.
25:02All the attention on Steph.
25:04Two guys stay with him.
25:05Bad angle for John Collins to get back.
25:07But Al Horford was just able to take his time.
25:10And he loved that action.
25:12You know the league has that new stat now.
25:15Player gravity.
25:17Yep.
25:18And Kawhi Leonard is at the top of that.
25:21Inside the paint.
25:22I guess the ball outside the three-point line.
25:25Stand of free throws.
25:26Tell fans what gravity is.
25:27Well, the defenders paying attention to the offensive player.
25:31And sometimes, obviously, inside you can say that's a different one.
25:34Outside the three-point line when you have the ball and you don't have the ball.
25:37Steph, I think, because he's missed so many games, he's not at the top of that list.
25:40But he would be, obviously.
25:41He'd be the main guy anywhere on the court.
25:43And if they don't guard you, you become an astronaut.
25:47Zero gravity.
25:49Basically.
25:51And that would be like a center who's a defensive guy that's out of the three-point line.
25:54And no one's paying attention to him.
25:56There'd be no gravity to that player.
25:57Perfect.
25:58But Kawhi, Steph Curry, all kinds of bodies move when they move.
26:02Wherever they move.
26:03Kawhi kind of does it in a different way.
26:05Mostly when he has the ball.
26:07He'll finally owns.
26:09And a big leaper in Jones.
26:11Yeah, you're not going to shoot over him.
26:12Derrick Jones got a piece of that.
26:17Tied at 76.
26:18I'll tell you what both teams do not want today.
26:20Those platoon bottoms at three.
26:22They do not want overtime.
26:24Nope.
26:25They're going to see enough of each other on Wednesday night.
26:32Katerin closed out on Seth.
26:34Seth waiting for a cutter.
26:36Will Richard with the shot clock at ten.
26:38Will in the lane.
26:40Finding Bassey down low.
26:41and he fouled by Batum Charles Bassley is really shown what he can do a lot of
26:50times these players they get these 10 days you just don't have an opportunity
26:53to show what you're capable of and show your entire repertoire either because
26:57you're not getting minutes whatever the situation is but Bassie's been able to
27:00get in here he's shown he's got pretty good hands actually pretty good back to
27:04the basket game pretty good touch inside and that's 7-3 wingspan you can't teach
27:08it so much so that mercury insurance wants to see his free throws
27:15want a tip you could save hundreds by switching to mercury auto insurance and
27:19good drivers can save even more
27:28so Warriors are 17 of 20 from the free throw line they have dominated in that
27:34category this game we're talking about a Clipper team that is the number one
27:39free-throwing team in the league and the Warriors are number six so on Wednesday
27:44free throws not only the volume but both teams shoot a very high percentage
27:50Clipper lead at two of the ball final 48 seconds of this third
27:56Matherin will settle for that three Jassy didn't get beat off the dribble
28:03capacity ceiling two for one and nice catch and finish
28:06Seth Curry reward the big man when he runs great sequence for bassy stop and
28:11matter making him take a tough shot and just sealing it right at the free throw line
28:14giving his teammates a target that pass you 10 points off the bench
28:17back down a bitch floating it up and in
28:23can't quite freeze it out a three second game shot clock difference
28:28Seth Curry and open through the Malafi Leone's the rebound reversing it up and in
28:34just use the size down there remember you 610
28:39he's got an energy flow about him defensively and offensively
28:43time things at 81 final five seconds Miller gonna get the lame with the big
28:50dribble and lay it up and in right with point two the Warriors at buzzer beaters
28:56first and second quarter not gonna be there for that one the final 12 minutes of
29:03the regular season and the Clipper lead a deuce as we head into the last quarter
29:10he threw three here in LA and one quarter remaining in the regular season
29:18scoring got rolling in that third where you shot a better Clippers right with
29:22them and a two-point game I still am loving the St. Curry
29:26I love that dude for Steph ST and Seth SE well I think coach Kerr has seen a
29:32lot of what he wanted to see in this game Steph played really well he looked
29:35really good he was moving extremely well you got a lot of Steph and poor Zingas
29:39action together by the way this our last quarter last 12 minutes of the season I
29:45just got to say thank you so much Dubnation I've absolutely enjoyed this
29:49season we love all of you I've enjoyed seeing Warrior fans not just at Chase Center but on the road
29:54I think a lot of times come out to LA but no matter where we are people come up to
29:57us
29:58say hello so we love it all thanks again Dubnation Nate Williams missing there I
30:03think Warrior fans were particularly good at home this year at Chase Center
30:06season ticket holders were amazing the crowds were amazing and even when the
30:11Warriors were banged up that crowd it got better efforts and exhorted better
30:15efforts from the players on the floor you could feel it you can feed off the
30:18crowds energy and the Warriors need it so much this season the season of adversity a lot of
30:24times Dubnation was what lifted the warrior spirits talk about that spirit bar
30:29being up Dubnation spirit bar was always up so a couple free throws from Kobe
30:35Sanders Xfinity with the most intelligent Wi-Fi at one consistent price for the next
30:44five years a single greatest thing we have in our civilization today nothing is
30:49gonna be the same price for five years except Xfinity although I will say by the way
30:53speaking of where you see the ticket holders where your season tickets same
30:56price if a price last year same price this year going forward okay love
31:02consistency but I think that's I just reward fans for their dedication and
31:07hanging in there with this team
31:11next season is gonna be fun I just think there's another chapter left of these guys
31:16already looking forward to Spencer missing that three basing guides at home the one thing
31:24you know if you're a warrior fan they've had the highest payroll in the league eight of the last nine
31:28years and Joe Lincoln's paid the most luxury tax money of any owner for a decade
31:33first tossing that in when you got Batum the sniper off the bench he's got nine on three of three
31:40on threes and that just shows you
31:41the Warriors are about winning at all costs literally
31:45Bassey on the roll beautiful play as he flips it in and draws the foul that's a nice pocket pass
31:52from Malafi Leone
31:53Charles Bassey have a game finish strong why wouldn't you look at him set the screen and then they switch
32:01it late so the man he set the screen on is trying to catch up from behind and that's Miller
32:08that's not gonna work
32:09Bogdanovich got over there and just ran through him and you finish through the contact Bassey is only 25 years
32:15of age
32:16He's had cups of coffee with various stops in the NBA
32:19Boston had him on the the 210 days he played fire in his career for Philly we saw him San
32:25Antonio but
32:27He's intriguing back to big he's more than serviceable
32:32The first three-point lead in the ball
32:35He's out of it
32:36Kobe Sanders
32:37From out of a shooting slope a little bit
32:41Richards went for the steel Sanders ran that in
32:49Don't know that Steve Kerr will bring the rest of the starting unit back
32:54I saw Steph over there. He was doing his resistance bands work on his ankle.
32:58I think Al would be done.
33:01Pat Spencer hit the three, but you can have an offensive foul.
33:04Bassey set a moving screen. Waves off that three points.
33:08You're not mad at it. Bassey was just trying to get his teammate open.
33:13Watch Bassey get a little too aggressive with the screen.
33:16A little movement threw him down.
33:19I think he was okay until the throwdown.
33:21A little lineman do that in another sport, actually.
33:28Jordan Miller cycling to Bogdanovich.
33:31See, Nicholas Batuma hasn't missed a three, right?
33:35But he wants to get Bogdanovich going as well.
33:37And so a very unselfish pass there.
33:41He's only played 22 games this season.
33:43This one, so they're just happy to have Bogdanovich out there.
33:47Another scoring threat where he's got to deal with that.
33:49That's Spencer driving on Miller.
33:53Now, Wawitzki fade away.
33:55Bassey fighting for it, but the Clippers come away.
33:58So L.A. gaining some separation.
34:01After throwing it back, good save by Leonard Miller.
34:06He stopped on the D-cell in his own right.
34:08It's becoming the thing now, Bogdanovich.
34:11Bottoms another three.
34:13He's been a very good player at all these stages of his career,
34:18but this year has not been part of the Clipper rotation.
34:22Warriors will take time.
34:24Clippers have rebuilt the 11-point lead.
34:33We've talked about how this has become kind of a house of horrors,
34:36but the Clippers is a matchup just in general.
34:39Well, it's the two and nine, the worst of any team in the West.
34:45One and ten, eight straight on the road.
34:47Well, the last win is November 28th in 2021.
34:51And the concern, too, is as Steph comes back in the game,
34:55you see how much he wants to play.
34:57He misses that one, but the concern is the Clippers
35:00have more of their weapons firing, like Matherin, right?
35:03You talked about Bogdanovich.
35:04Oh, Matherin's going to send that down.
35:07So Porzingis comes back in.
35:08Steph comes back in.
35:10With Guy Santos, Melton, and GP2.
35:12So, Steve Kerr extending the minutes of kind of your major guys.
35:19Porzingis can just do that against anyone smaller whenever he wants.
35:23Bogdanovich is on him.
35:24He just had no chance.
35:26Porzingis doesn't see his contest.
35:30So midway through the fourth, and Portland wins.
35:33It's Warriors and Clippers for certain.
35:37Portland beat the Clippers twice in a ten-day period.
35:40That one went for the steal.
35:42Shot clock at six.
35:45Bogdanovich has been hot.
35:46And he hits out for Paso Robles.
35:49Oh, man.
35:50Bogdan Bogdanovich.
35:52He's got 17.
35:54Pointing at the fans, styling after that one.
35:57Steph through a lot of traffic, and Steph getting to the line.
36:00And Steph Curry.
36:02Everybody treats him like the greatest shooter that's ever lived
36:04because he is that.
36:05So that defender is right up on him.
36:08Look at how far out Bogdanovich is.
36:10That's a logo three.
36:13Knocks that one down.
36:14He had been dealing with a hamstring injury all season.
36:16He hurt it in Eurobasket 2025 and re-injured it this season.
36:21So he's sitting out.
36:22But they have that weapon back.
36:23But Steph Curry.
36:24In the Olympics, so Bogdanovich, Koma Jokic.
36:27I mean, when he plays for Serbia, he's a fantastic player.
36:30I was talking about Steph Curry as a shooter.
36:32I felt a small bit of what he feels one time before.
36:37But it was a fleeting feeling.
36:39We're here in L.A.
36:40Playing against the Lakers, though.
36:42Staples Center back then.
36:43Phil Jackson yells at the guy that's guarding me.
36:47You got the shooter.
36:48As a movie, you got the shooter.
36:50So the next possession, I get the ball.
36:53I shoot a three.
36:54I brick it.
36:56It wasn't even a goodness.
36:58I look back at Phil Jackson, and he had a look on his face as if to say,
37:03never mind.
37:03We're not worried about it.
37:04This buffoon shoots the ball.
37:06I felt so.
37:07I felt like he was so disappointed with me.
37:09Outback iron.
37:10Although you had a good scoring game against the Lakers.
37:12I did.
37:13Actually, that game, I hit some threes after that.
37:15I remember it played well, but I never was able to get that moment back.
37:19A chance to validate Phil Jackson's coaching.
37:22You know what I mean?
37:23Like, this guy is a legend.
37:24Anthony Melton missing that.
37:26And Guy Santos.
37:27Guy Santos denied by Batum.
37:30And so here's Matherin pushing ahead to Miller.
37:34Bogdanovich, how hot is he?
37:36And that time finally missing a three, but ricocheting out of bounds to the Clippers.
37:41Warriors are trying to get as much as possible out of this game.
37:44You're not showing the Clippers your full hand here,
37:47but you are getting Steph a good amount of minutes,
37:50and now you're going to get Pujemski back in the game for GP2.
37:55Steph has been moving well.
37:56He obviously wanted to play.
37:58Now, what's interesting for Ty Lue, does Bogdanovich play Wednesday?
38:02I think absolutely he does.
38:03He does.
38:03Okay.
38:04It's not that he just wasn't in the road.
38:06He was hurting.
38:07He had a hamstring issue.
38:08And then Matherin is saying, hey, I want to play Wednesday too.
38:12And he's got 20.
38:13I think you have to play these guys, Bogdanovich,
38:16because that's where they really needed help was off to their bench.
38:19I mean, Matherin had 38 off the bench when he became a Clipper.
38:23Talk about introducing yourself to a new team.
38:26And that one bounced on the sideline.
38:28The Warriors turned it over.
38:29They only had nine turnovers the whole game.
38:31And that's the first one kind of, you don't want those.
38:35Well, the Clippers don't want to have to just say, hey, Kawhi Leonard,
38:39let's jump on your back and you take us home.
38:41Like, they need other guys to kick in.
38:48Miller from deep.
38:50DeSantos with the rebound.
38:51If the Clippers hold on and win, they will make NBA history.
38:55No team in the 80 years of the NBA has ever been 15 games under .500
39:01and finish with a winning record.
39:04Borzingas is fouled there.
39:05They start at 6-21.
39:07If they win, they'd be 42-40.
39:10They had a disgusting start to the season.
39:12That is remarkable, though.
39:14Never happened ever in league history.
39:16The turnaround has been pretty impressive.
39:19And good on Ty Lue to hang in there and stay on his guys
39:23and keep banging home his message.
39:29They bought in, found a way to turn it around.
39:32Borzingas drops in the free throw.
39:34We talked about becoming a Warriors season ticket holder.
39:37He can secure seats for all Warrior home games in the postseason and next season.
39:42And access to exclusive events, the Warriors shop discounts and more.
39:45I like the chalk talks we do with Steve Kerr and Steph and Jimmy Butler, Mike Dunleavy.
39:51I'd get in on those season tickets.
39:53Next year is going to be a lot of fun.
39:57I know Jimmy Butler is coming back strong.
39:59I had a great discussion with Moses Moody after last game.
40:03He's on his crutches.
40:04He's in great spirits.
40:05He said the surgery went extremely well.
40:08I want to see what Mike Dunleavy's got picked up for the summer.
40:11The Warriors have their own draft pick, and they have their own draft pick for the next four years.
40:15That went off-iron, and Sanders couldn't guide it home.
40:18Steph, throw ahead Guy Santos.
40:20Guy, saving it.
40:22No.
40:24He's careful over there on the baseline.
40:27He had on a swivel.
40:28Hey, we got floor seats.
40:30Oh, he's Guy Santos right in your lap.
40:33I'm sure he made some friends over there.
40:35Well, Guy's like, I'm getting married this summer.
40:37If you'd like to come to Brazil, I'd like to invite both of you.
40:41Yeah, yeah.
40:42And Spencer's getting married this summer.
40:44Guy Santos getting married this summer.
40:45Look at the good man over there protecting his woman.
40:47I respect it.
40:51Inway through this fourth quarter.
40:54Look for lead in double figures.
40:58Nice spin move by Kobe Sanders, and Guy hit the ground.
41:02Hopefully, Guy is okay.
41:04He's a little gimpy running back.
41:08Melton, the U.S. product, was denied there.
41:11Matherin's had a good game.
41:13A little running it back.
41:15He travels.
41:16And then times Platoon.
41:19Warriors on the glove.
41:20Oh, man.
41:21The Warriors have three guys going for the defensive rebound, and they'll be called for a foul.
41:25Bro, that's rough.
41:27These decels are getting out of control, man.
41:30Everybody's testing their brake pads.
41:33Watch this one come to a screeching halt.
41:36Miller's like,
41:39Never put that third foot down.
41:41That's not a lot.
41:42No, it wasn't.
41:43Gather one, two.
41:44But the thing about that decel, it gives you time to make a decision.
41:49Yes, it does.
41:50You don't have to come to a jump stop if you can slow that.
41:53Let's slow that down all the way like that.
41:56GP2 called for the foul.
41:58It's like there are a lot of quizzical Warriors wondering how, when they all had interior positions,
42:03somehow the Warriors were called for a foul on that rebound.
42:05That was very odd.
42:09It's like that sometimes on the road, and you're going to have to be back here dealing with maybe some
42:14home cooking, so get used to it.
42:16It's a big day for all the officials in the league.
42:18They get their postseason assignments.
42:21Kevin Scott will be here.
42:22Yes, he will.
42:24Matherin denied.
42:25Officials get graded all through the year.
42:27The best officials advance.
42:29Guy Santos advancing and laying it up and in.
42:33Guy Santos finishing IQ is really high.
42:37Really impressed by that.
42:38He's shown me a lot this season.
42:40Yeah, you have the officials round one, and then the better officials are graded.
42:44They go to the semis, and then the conference finals, and the very best make the NBA finals.
42:50They get their final jacket.
42:52Sweat jacket, which is a huge deal if you're an official.
42:57Ten-point game.
42:58Look at Steph Curry is tripped.
43:03What are the Clippers complaining about?
43:06We for sure got tripped.
43:09Look at Guy Santos.
43:11The Clippers are going to challenge this.
43:13On the floor, the over-the-top there.
43:16That's how you finish.
43:17The Clippers are saying Steph had pushed off and then fell.
43:21It's called time on the challenge.
43:22Coach's challenge.
43:24Four-and-a-half left.
43:25L.A. with a ten-point lead.
43:31Played 29 minutes so far.
43:34It's just been great to see him look healthier and healthier.
43:37That little ankle tweak, whatever in Sacramento, not in evidence at all today, still brings everyone joy.
43:44Watching Steph Curry play.
43:46Count your blessings with this man.
43:47This is greatness.
43:48And that call is overturned to a no-call.
43:52But a little push-off there.
43:54But Steph had possession of the ball, so the Warriors still keep the ball.
43:57It is not a foul.
43:59But incidental foot-to-foot contact, not a foul, but still Warrior possession.
44:03I am a little upset.
44:04We missed the Kevin Scott presentation.
44:06But we were showing Steph on it.
44:09Anthony Melton, offensive foul there.
44:14Matherin's been solid really on both sides of the floor.
44:17Usually, Anthony Melton can get penetration pretty easily against anybody when he's feeling good.
44:23Matherin, he was the sixth pick overall in 2022, made the all-rookie team.
44:27He was a big part of what Indiana was trying to do.
44:30And he had given up a blow-by.
44:31Now, Steve Kerr is going to have a coach's challenge here, saying,
44:35wasn't Melton just shooting the ball?
44:37And Matherin got in the way.
44:38So, the Warriors will have a coach's challenge with 4.26 left.
44:44Everybody getting ready for the play-in in the postseason.
44:48What do you think of this call?
44:49Kevin Scott presentation.
44:50Yes.
44:52Oh, or is Matherin fouling him first?
44:55So, watch Matherin.
44:56You see Matherin kind of lean in there, stick his head in there, and it looked like...
45:01Here we go.
45:02Here we go.
45:02Kevin Scott, give it to us with that little country-fried, hickory-smoked accent.
45:07After review, the offensive player turns to shoot in a natural shooting motion that he's allowed to do by rule.
45:14The defender steps forward and commits illegal body and face contact.
45:19Therefore, the call has been overturned to a defensive foul.
45:23Now, offensive player will shoot two shots, and Golden State will be awarded the opportunity for a second challenge.
45:30Like, it kind of kept going up.
45:32It crescendoed almost there at the end.
45:34It just got louder and louder.
45:36Got better and better.
45:38Southern hospitality, home-cooked meal, biscuits and gravy presentation.
45:44Love it.
45:46I think I love Kevin Scott and that accent equal to your cornbread.
45:52It's up there.
45:53Kevin Scott is the cornbread of officials, basically.
45:57He is part of Kalena's famous cornbread.
45:59We love Kevin Scott, right?
46:00It's jalapeno cornbread.
46:02Now, I will say, because everybody watches League Pass, our love for Kevin Scott has gotten us in trouble.
46:07Because other officials that love us are saying, hey, wait a minute.
46:12We're like, we have no place in our, Billy Kennedy and Kevin Scott have our heart.
46:16I'm just happy to learn that there's other officials that love us.
46:19This is great.
46:21In 33 years, I found one or two that like me.
46:24Actually, I credit how the NBA officials are the best in the world, and they've taught us a lot about
46:28the game.
46:29We've always given Bill Kennedy his love when it comes to the presentations as well.
46:34Sanders is fouled.
46:36So, a couple free throws coming.
46:38Got a little hesitation there from Sanders.
46:41You know he's got the pull-up game.
46:43Pretty good size for a wing, for sure.
46:47About 6'8".
46:48We, you know, we go to the league meetings.
46:50Imani McCutcheon was a great game official, runs the officials.
46:53Go call Olympic basketball, and you will see how great NBA officials are.
46:58It's so hard.
46:59Watch college basketball.
47:00You will see and appreciate how great NBA officials are.
47:03Well, because every time there's a point of emphasis, offensive players adjust.
47:07The IQ of these offensive players, how tricky and crafty and elusive they can be.
47:13You have to know all the rules.
47:14You have everything judged.
47:15You have to manage people, manage players in the era of social media where every single call is put out
47:21there.
47:22I mean, it really, it's a very difficult job.
47:24And the screening process to get here for these offensive players is really long.
47:28They went through that in depth last summer.
47:31That's why once in advance of the postseason, I give them the absolute high five.
47:36That's, you're at the pinnacle of your profession.
47:38So, a 10-point game coming upon the final four minutes of the regular season.
47:44That's Spencer, Will Richard, Malafi, Lyons, Bassey, and Nate Williams.
47:49Nate with that snake dribble, laying it up and in with the left hand.
47:54So, 28 minutes for Steph.
47:57Horford played 19, Porzingis 24.
47:59Brandon played in all 82 games and finished better than 80% free-throwing this year.
48:06Miller able to put that up and in.
48:08Miller was kind of surprised he was that wide open.
48:11The lane was that wide open.
48:16It's not a small thing, too.
48:17Both teams have gotten through this game without any injuries.
48:21Knock on wood.
48:21Yes.
48:22Knock on wood ever for the final three and a half.
48:26Shot clock at three.
48:27Pat Spencer, nowhere to go here.
48:29On Batum.
48:30Throws one up.
48:31It hits a fadeaway.
48:32The toughest shot of the day.
48:35You've got to be kidding me.
48:36Look at Steph leaving it up there.
48:39MGA fadeaway.
48:40Pat Spencer's got five.
48:42What a year for Pat, by the way.
48:44When you think of him playing in 66 games.
48:50Getting his two-way contract.
48:52Converted into a standard NBA contract.
48:55Batum missed everything.
48:57Bassey, good closeout.
48:59Pat Spencer just been a guy, another guy the Warriors can rely on for good energy.
49:04So, Portland wins.
49:05They will play Phoenix on Tuesday.
49:08The Warriors will play the Clippers right here on Wednesday.
49:11Pat Spencer putting it up and in.
49:13And really, Kay, Monday, Tuesday is kind of a little mini camp.
49:16That's it.
49:17The Warriors are going to stay in L.A.
49:19And they get ready for the Clippers on Wednesday.
49:21No travel involved.
49:23But I do love, as Miller was fouled, gets fouled again.
49:27I do love the way the Warriors played this game.
49:29Because if Steph and them sat out this game, that was going to be kind of a long time.
49:33Too much to get to Wednesday.
49:35Yeah.
49:35And you're thinking about trying to brush the rust off.
49:38How about that MJ fadeaway from Pat?
49:40Oh, my God.
49:41But, too, did you see Patoob after that one?
49:43He was looking at him like, wait a minute.
49:44You can do that?
49:45And then the offensive rebound and put back.
49:48He's got the left hand working.
49:51Pat Spencer has become an NBA guy this year.
49:56He has.
49:56You know, he's an NBA player.
49:58He's an NBA player.
49:59He's really worked on his pull-up game.
50:00All that stuff in the paint, the touch inside, he gets really good arc on that.
50:05He is the Warriors spirit bar a lot of nights.
50:09He's such a leader with his effort and energy and compete level.
50:13Because he is the best lacrosse player maybe that's ever played the sport.
50:17So, he just, he knows about pressure moments.
50:21He knows about, hey, you want to compete?
50:23You know, lace them up.
50:24Let's go.
50:25And he's really good for practice, too.
50:27Absolutely.
50:27If the Warriors aren't going hard and scrimmaging, he'll be in the three-on-three games a lot of times.
50:33But, like, you need someone like that so you can feel that game intensity.
50:39It's hard to simulate what happens in an NBA game in practice.
50:42But if you have a practice player like a Pat Spencer that goes dumb hard no matter what every time
50:48he steps on a court,
50:50you're getting good reps in practice.
50:52You talked about Malafi Leone's always has a smile.
50:54GP2 always has a smile.
50:56Pat Spencer's like, you better earn that smile.
51:00Enough putting up with that.
51:02The seven-point game, final two minutes of the regular season.
51:12Miller, hiding behind Batum, now gets Bassey on a switch and then the foul.
51:16We also want to thank our whole broadcast crew.
51:20Sure.
51:20I mean, home and away, the technical people that do everything.
51:23Tommy Adzer, our incredible director.
51:25And really, the best crew, the Warrior home broadcast crew.
51:29Phil Policino.
51:30Well, they carry Phil Policino, who is just a barnacle on the ship of excellence that is Warrior TV.
51:36That's uncalled for.
51:38Phil's going to be doing some national stuff, too.
51:40Of course.
51:40He is, he was our producer at the Olympics in Paris.
51:44He has somehow stayed employed all these years.
51:47He has filled a lot of credit.
51:48Just backhanded compliments.
51:49He just fooled them for years.
51:51And then working with you, brother, seven years together.
51:54It was gone by fast.
51:55Yes, sir.
51:56Such a great friend.
51:57Such a great broadcaster.
51:58Yes, sir.
51:59I've enjoyed the year.
52:00You know, because of you.
52:01I love getting to play golf on the road.
52:03Absolutely.
52:04You never let the spirit bar go down.
52:06Yes.
52:07We just, we will become the biggest Warrior fans once this game is over.
52:12Our broadcast season is done.
52:15Everything goes on the national TV for the postseason.
52:17Never take this job for granted.
52:19And we're going to be watching intently Wednesday night.
52:23Pat Spencer kicking it out to Will Richard.
52:26Off iron there.
52:28And foul on the rebound as Miller and Bassey came together.
52:31That will be on the Clippers.
52:33And good on the Clippers for the way they played this game.
52:36I actually give Ty Lue and Steve a lot of credit.
52:39This is a totally legitimate NBA game.
52:41And it makes a lot of sense that you would rest Kawhi Leonard.
52:43As many games as he's played all season, they're just happy to have him healthy.
52:47They're just like, you know, let's not, let's let him rest.
52:50We finally got this guy healthy.
52:52The last game of the season.
52:53And Draymond played 68 games.
52:55I hope the people that vote for all defense take into account how good Draymond Green is defensively.
53:02He should be in there.
53:03There are not 10 players in the NBA that guard people better than Draymond Green.
53:08And those people that are voting for the all defensive team, don't just look at stats.
53:12No, it's hard to quantify what Draymond Green does.
53:15Who can guard one through five?
53:16That's it.
53:17Who can blow up plays in the half court all the time?
53:19Who can slow down your Wembenyamas and Shea Gilchrist-Alexanders?
53:23And we'll see Wednesday night Kawhi.
53:25I mean, Draymond is, at 36 years of age, is just incredible.
53:28A lot of times you don't even have a chance to get a block shot because he breaks up the
53:32play before you get there.
53:34Yeah.
53:34I mean, there are some great defenders.
53:35I mean, you start with Wembenyamas, you know.
53:38But for Draymond, it would be really special to join an incredibly exclusive list.
53:45Be only the sixth man to ever be all defense ten times or more in NBA history.
53:50Ten feels right.
53:52Yeah.
53:52That number.
53:53Draymond is that time for the defender.
53:55Miller bottoms a three.
53:57And the Clippers are going to hold off the Warriors one more time.
54:00So, November 28th, 2021, it has been a drought in L.A.
54:07We'll see if the Warriors can end that on Wednesday.
54:09Final minute to play here.
54:11The Warriors have a three-point seating night on Wednesday.
54:13You got all your misses out of the way.
54:15Yeah, this game.
54:16I will find Lyons on the step round.
54:19So, the game will be on Amazon on Wednesday at 7.
54:22But we will have a Warrior pregame show on NBC Sports Bay Area at 6 o'clock.
54:28Because other than the shooting, repeat everything else you did.
54:31With the ten, ten turnovers.
54:32Yeah, ten turnovers.
54:33Yep.
54:33The second chance points, 28 second chance.
54:35Rebounded the ball well.
54:38Off back iron.
54:40And Will Richard will track it down.
54:43So, the Clippers are going to become the first team ever to be 15 games under 500
54:48and finish with a winning record at 42-40 after starting 6-21.
54:54And Williams puts in the last bucket of the season.
54:57So, the Clippers will hold off the Dubs by 5.
55:00And the same two teams will meet Wednesday night, 7 o'clock on Amazon.
55:05Warrior pregame live on NBC Sports Bay Area at 6.
55:11Kalena, we are going to play some golf this summer.
55:14Spend some time together and become Warrior fans.
55:16Yes, sir.
55:16It's been a joy, brother.
55:18Enjoyed every minute of the season with you.
55:20Thank you again, Dub Nation.
55:22It's been real.
55:23We'll see you next season.
55:24We will see you next year together on the TV side, 1-15, 1-10, the final.
55:29Warrior postgame live with Bonte, Molly, Festus coming up right after these messages.
55:35We'll see you next season.
55:40We'll see you next season.
55:41We'll see you next season.
55:46We'll see you next season.
55:46We'll see you next season.
55:47We'll see you next season.
