00:00right before we began coach goes you don't think there's any way the clippers win that game
00:05now unless you have information that i don't have where the clippers are tanking the game
00:11i mean it's a four point spread do you can you not stand this clipper team are you secretly in
00:18love with this warrior team and you wait the warriors i just i just think looking at the
00:24game in golden state with that team and them knowing the importance of you know remember
00:30if i'm not mistaken didn't go and say being a plane a couple of years ago and lose and get
00:36knocked out of the playoffs oh against who okay well so actually just to give everyone the history
00:43lessons since jy brought it up i'll i'll break it up uh they were an eight seed they played the
00:47seven seed lakers lebron hit a 30 footer in steph's eye they get dead bounced into the eight nine game
00:53then they lost to memphis on their home court not steph salt not steph salt what you want them to
00:57do and then oh by the way because only people might remember that one literally last year they
01:03were in the play-in they were favored at sacramento and they didn't get out of that game either
01:07now this year the play-in tom which again also wouldn't be steph's fault and if they lost that
01:14game it wouldn't be steph's fault because nothing is steph's fault yet we throw him into goat
01:17conversations because we're legitimately out of our minds somehow covering this league
01:21where are you are you at are you are you somewhere on this game where are you on this
01:25game right now it's tomorrow you have some time so uh four point spread i think it's from a betting
01:30perspective not any of these takes history withstanding i just was was offering up some
01:36context that's all clippers are obviously very live to win the game sure you believe that the
01:41clippers are one of the more underrated teams in the league i just think they are they are
01:46only going to become legitimately discussed once the matchups are set correct i think it's it's a
01:51very fair to say that the clippers cover but they don't win i think the the warriors win but they
01:56don't cover i should say but a little bit more simply they win but they don't cover just threading
02:01a needle yeah it is it's but we're talking a 220 total i would shade on the under on that over the
02:05last three games both teams are in the bottom 11 of the league in offense space they're slowing
02:09things down the clippers are sub 100 possessions in pace of the last three it is playoff time it is
02:14playoff mentality give me the warriors to win the clippers cover i hope that the warriors get out
02:19to a big lead and you can grab the clippers at an eight or nine number and then you're looking you're
02:24working with a great spot where you can play both sides of it i think the clippers are very live to
02:28win and if that's the way you feel to me then isn't the best bet to go under 220 and a half
02:33i would absolutely because of the fact of of how big this game is and how neither team wants to get
02:40into it there's also to me i'm looking at this and i shouldn't count this as an elimination game
02:47there is the big game james harden back and i'm looking at it as maybe not a elimination game
02:56or game seven but this is a game in which it's these are huge stakes for a guy you know kevin has
03:04underperformed time and time again in big spots and close out game seven or die situation so to me
03:12yeah i like the warriors because they're also at home but i think the best bet of the day could be
03:16under 220 and a half so a couple of things one just to reset the importance of this game
03:22we're going to assume a denver victory against houston and a minnesota victory against utah
03:28if the warriors then under that circumstances win this game they will be the sixth seed they will
03:36play the lakers in round number one almost assuredly on saturday evening in what the nba will cry many
03:42many many tears of joy over getting and the clippers will be the seven if we assume denver and minnesota's
03:50victories but the clippers win this game the clippers get up to the five huge difference golden state
03:56back to the seven huge difference denver still the four minnesota ends up the six and playing the
04:01lakers i as we sit here right now it may change as we get closer i do like the warriors in this game
04:09despite giving you a tough time i can't help myself the warriors are at home which is an advantage but
04:15the warriors game against portland was also much easier it was not pretty but in part i think because
04:21of how ker approached it steph only played 27 minutes draymond jimmy also played under 30 minutes
04:27the clippers ended up in a dog fight against sacks romeno 42 minutes on kawaii 43 minutes on hardin
04:3536 minutes on norm powell and again that that is a lot now to go play another do or die basketball game
04:43maybe the warriors will have a little bit more in the legs and make no bones about it that is what this
04:48game is you may say oh i'd much rather play houston around one than the lakers or i'd much rather play
04:53houston than the rockets or but nobody wants to be in that plane especially not these two teams now
05:00especially not kawaii and steph curry or draymond and james harden wanting more and more on their legs
05:07because this would be let's just say you're the clippers 40 minutes against sacramento 40 minutes
05:13against golden state 40 minutes against memphis in the play-in at a minimum to try and get through
05:20back into just the seven seed that that becomes very very tricky if that is again how it is going to
05:28play out can i say something real quick yeah and just thinking about this you guys are gonna think
05:33the biggest matchup in this game is what you get out of ivaca zubak yeah you look at his numbers
05:41versus golden state right 16 points 15.3 rebounds four assists shooting at about 58 from the floor
05:49now who's gonna probably see him mr i'm gonna should be the defense player of the year draymond green
05:56so what kind of tricks does draymond have up his sleeve in that game i mean you want to talk about
06:03trying to get the bait this guy and this is where it gets interesting i want to see where the nba
06:09and it'll be announced usually about 9 9 30 a.m i want to see who the referee crew because that is
06:15going to be a major storyline with a game that means that much right and you know how draymond is
06:21if i'm draymond and i get the right crew i'm doing whatever i can to get out under ivaca zubak's skin
06:27because i think he plays a bigger role in this matchup that people want to give him credit for
06:31so
