Herb Jones talks Clippers’ execution | Pelicans-Clippers Postgame Interview 1/5/2024

Cber team has been playing really good basketball lately um just what do you think about them from I guess a um execution standpoint in the half court I mean they have really talented guys um you know everybody knows that um so I mean it it was tough especially when

They making shots you know it was it was tougher to defend and I think they attacked a lot of the switches you know um and we I think we did the best we could to uh support our guys that was on the ball I mean they they just made a a

Ton of shots yeah what they do to just make it difficult for you guys to to score in the second quarter I mean and they switched a lot you know switching it doesn’t allow you really to uh attack the paint um and I think as the game

Went on we tried to you know do some different things to try to attack the paint but I think they they did a pretty good job tonight uh defending us we just got to watch some film and get better yeah few moments you guys did have life

Tonight it was when you were getting out in transition and scoring some buckers but they didn’t allow it as much I guess what were they doing that made it tough to really get out and get some of those fast break buckets uh they made shots um

I mean it’s tough to get out and transition you know you’re taking the ball out so we just tried to do the best we could on the defensive end you know to get out and transition but like I said it’s tough to get out in transition when they making shots and

Third game of for nights coming off a rad back to back how much do you feel like kind of just the te was maybe just a step slow a little bit fatigue kicking and in this one I I don’t really uh blame anything going fatigue I try not

To um I mean I expect you know our guys to show up every day and give it you know they’re all each time we step on the court so I wouldn’t attribute it to any fatigue um I just think it was one of those nights tonight uh and we ended up

On the you know on the on the bad end of it um like I said we just got to go back watch film and get better stay in the gym and her Willie talked about how they play with a lot more Force basically could you feel that out

There I mean you can see it uh but I mean you know when you when you’re making shots that that gives your team some juice um and it’s I mean you know you try not to let it affect you defensively you know when you’re missing shots or not doing as well on offense

But um I think that that was kind of the case tonight uh you know we was missing shots we weren’t really getting what we wanted on offense and I think it kind of affected us defensively and her I wonder if you know what happened to Zan I think

All Willie knew was that he got some kind of sustained AB bruise before halftime then he tried to play through it but couldn’t do you know when he got hurt or anything like that during the game that is thanks
