The Clippers Get Defensive After Losing Paul George + What's Next for LA's Roster?

- The LA Clippers lost Paul George and quickly made moves to pivot to what seems to be a more defensive style of basketball…fun? Adam, Will, and Chuck talk Nic Batum's return, what Derrick Jones Jr. can bring to the starting lineup, and wonder if the Clippers have one more big swing in them

If we have Zubac, Bridges, Kawhi, DJ Jr, Harden for the starting lineup then I'll feel like they can still potentially be a contender.
Clippers need a power forward badly. John Collins or miles bridges would be perfect. Grant Williams is too small and don’t rebound
Bridges will be a huge pickup. KPJ and Dunn off the bench 😮💨
Dunn coo but that should be Bones' 2nd unit to lead
@@houstonasterisks7561bones struggles against size
Why wouldn’t u think porter wouldn’t get minutes. That’s crazy talk
Yep. While the points per game from the horrible rockets wouldn't translate, shooting 37% from 3 does, and play the role of point guard too (not that we necessarily need that).
They just don’t like him. They aren’t being honest.
@@2000dpdpdp To be fair, it's very hard to judge where someone like him would go unless you were following the Rockets (which why would you)? For like 2-3 of those years, none of his stats really translated to roles on other teams (guys like Christian Wood went from leading scorers on the Rockets to bench guys for the Mavs). Then the last year or so (I forget if the Rockets were a horrible team or not but at the very least they weren't horrendously bad) his 3 point shooting numbers became legit. I forget what his defense was like but at the very least he wasn't abysmal. And those are the sort of thing that are easy to translate to contenders.
@@agentkirbYou have a reasonable take. Much different than what these guys were saying though. They (mostly the chuck guy) completely dismissed his potential production to the team.
@@2000dpdpdp I just think the reason why they dismissed it is he's someone who has had arguably 1 year of good stats in Houston and I can easily see them thinking that Houston was mostly mediocre so sometimes leading scorers on bad teams don't even make rotations on good teams. And it's only been recently that KPJ improved his 3 point shooting that he would make the rotation on a condender.
The Clippers have now become Lock 🔐 City for all the defense they added especially with Kris Dunn he's about to really turn some heads next season and beyond as a defensive weapon slasher and dependable playmaker on offense
I hope Nic Batum plays more than 20 mins, his stats and efficiency when he plays above 20 mins vs below it is night and day, most of his bad games last time with the clips are when he played under 20 minutes.
We should really look into getting miles bridges
He’d have great off court chemistry with kai jones and kpj
@@bwest5725 exactly lol👌🤣
@@jhc2133 ddr and collins
I was thinking that too but T. Lue hasn't ever really played two big man line ups. Zu, Mo, Kai and Bridges look good on paper but will play it.
@@torrancejohnson9922yikes to that lineup
Add a good PF. And I am looking forward seeing less iso basketball
KPJ will most definitely get minutes. He was never a 3rd stringer.
Saw a Dorian finney smith rumor for expiring Tucker and expiring Coffey. Dfs 2 year with a player option in second year
Where is that rumor. Never heard it
Gonna word vomit right here..If Clippers got Bridges, theyd be back on title contention. Dunn/KPJ are great POA defenders n overall good defenders. With KPJ being able to get his own shot. Batums high IQ and passing will feed the masses. Bamba is a much better upgrade over plum/theis - no athleticism/height killed the bench unit. The growth of Kai Jones is super underrated. I like the addition of demar - consistent scorer n passer (ty spurs) lavine would be fun tho… if clips lineup consists of DJJ/Bridges/KPJ/Jones we could be looking at Lob City 2.0 🤞🏽 also love the christie pick, 6’6 wing who can shoot the sht out the ball AND can attack closeouts 🙏🏽 post podcast p era, LFG
Batum Battalion Assemble 🫡
mmmmmm more Strats in the background, thats a nice one Adam!
gotta trade tmann, westbrook, hyland, they dnt fit the roster now
Man I was feeling bad about the off-season but WE HAVE PRIME DJJ
Clippers ready to rock withoit pandemic p that akways dribble dribble we got dogs that play defense
I want lavine bi or markennan
No lavine . Too much money
Damn shame Zu will not shoot a mid range. I hope it develops
Outside of health reasons, ISO ball killed this team. Need to move the ball and play defense. There will be a lot of game to be won in the low hundreds
36:44 please no grant williams 😭😭
This comment section is the most copium filled I think I've ever seen. It's sad how delusional Clippers fans are.
What this team’s ceiling in your opinion?
With Miles bridges, nba championship
@@sting114 absolutely delusional lmaoooooo 1st exit lol
They’re trying for DeRozan
Spurs don’t want to help clippers because of kawhi . Bulls need a 3rd team to help make the trade happen
We need DeMar or Bridges
Demar no
demar and kawhi plays the same y have him ?
@@PlayfulCloud3 because Demar plays Kawai injury prone and seems slower mite sluggish
They need to go after miles Bridges and form a big three
let’s go
no beetle borgs slander 😅
Harden, tmann or DJJ, Kawhi, Bridges, & Zu much better starting 5
too small lineup
@@PlayfulCloud3 no it's not.
@@AyeGreggyyharden, kawhi, bridges, Batum & Zu
@@PlayfulCloud3 Kawhi not moving to the 2 batum not playing starter minutes. Be smart sir.
@@AyeGreggyy u might be playing too much 2k, 234 doesnt matter as it is for 1&5. with batum, u can have a catch’n shoot threat at the starting rotation and have decent height which was the problem last season with tmann since powell was necessary for the 2nd unit. b smart kid
Since the team is from California and is against punishing criminals in general, why not get miles? Bridges. Would actually make us a contending team again. I know you guys play the high and mighty role even though you are godless but I'm down for it. We got nothing better.
Hahahah so true, you can get away with anything our liberal policies
Adam looks like he just woke up from some good 🐱
T Mann needs get traded and bones needs more minutes
This. Tmann is a bum
Imma gonna get a good laugh now every time when Adam says, "Clippers had the better talent than the Mavericks," but make it make sense that a team that was inferior in terms of talent, yall now get one player of that said inferior team and now that player is good...? If yall had the better team, shouldn't that mean the everyone on that inferior team, not be any good?
Joins the Clippers:
"DJJ is a very good defender. His shooting should be better. He's a great POA defender!"
Come on bruh 😂 Adam needs to stop coping and accept reality that the Mavericks were and are the better team. Clippers had a few solid role players, so they're relatively equal to the likes of DJJ, PJ, Lively, but Harden, and Paul george aren't, at least no longer on the levels of Luka and Kyrie. And the better team won, and guess what? If the Mavericks won, that means they are the better team! 🤯
Fyi, i like Adam petty hate 😂
And no, even with Kawhi healthy, Clippers weren't going to win because Harden and Paul george are known choke artists. Yall was gonna lose no matter what
Can you show where I said that? I was the one saying how dangerous the Mavs were and how id rather the clippers play the pelicans than Dallas in the 1st round. The hell are you talking about lol.
The Mavs created the second most wide open threes, you need to do your work before saying baseless shit like Dj is going to be more open, are you actually that biased…
@@whyareyousoreeediculous7707 according to stats.nba, the Mavs generated ~18 3PA of the “wide open” variety, good for 18th in the league
