OKC Thunder at LA Clippers | Game Highlights | January 16, 2024

But they haven’t lost back-to-back game since this hot streak for them began in the middle part of November Greg remember they struggled lost the first six games after the acquisition of Harden as holgren takes him to the rack and he is as good still as anybody in

Our game Williams dials it up boy this has been one of the jumps that he’s made last year about 34 35% from three he has been terrific and probably made the most growth from last year to this year when you look at the development of this t

Team well that last block of Paul George was the first Clippers missed shot SGA silky smooth with the step back when you’re talking about the caliber of player he he is and then they try to integrate him into a system where you’ve got two ball dominant guys and George

And Kawai nice find there and the way the game is officiated all those things is where we’ll have to see what their ceiling is but in terms of the regular season they have been incredible ill advised pass by giney Dort has to track it down and still

Plenty of time to shoot Williams on the deck slithers inside to the wreck two-point Clippers lead two of the top rated offenses in the NBA one and two in terms of three-point shooting and speaking of it’s Lou dor banging one down from Deep Leonard signing his three-year extension just last week over $155

Million as giddy able to get Point Blank and put it down and his Good Start continues giddy now with seven in this opening quarter giddy now with seven in this opening quarter he’s doing a really good job of just taking advantage of the advantages that their offens create and

Being able to attack there and SGA back on the attack what a match up between those two of course intertwined based on that Blockbuster deal a couple of years back as Jaylen Williams gets to the cup over the course of this season and this stretch right now is going to be

Important for both teams but particularly for OKC a little bit more offensive Firepower okay see resets with gild Alexander good kick near side that’s an open Corner three and it is good boy they just keep coming with kase Wallace banging one in from the corner I think that calmness about him really helps

This young group stay connected looking Wadley pick Harden’s Pocky well he can put that in his early highlight reel and he just was able to pick him perfectly for the de so just like that the Clippers lead is nine which just under two minutes gone by Williams puts Harden on

Skates felt like either or both of those guys could Elevate to that level hren somehow is able to keep it alive in a beautiful scoop right at the rim Westbrook likes the match up wants to take Williams kicks TI five to shoot there’s one of those deflections we got a hand on it

Williamsen the Thunder to force their turnover and how about the chemistry between the two youngsters for the Thunder Golden State up in San Francisco to take on the Warriors nba.com or visit the NBA out how aboutand and how well they’ve been able to play with all the injes another terrific and George’s quiet

First half continues he’s now one of three from the field just two points meic going to reset this is dork from Deep that’s his second three in the half you see how he Sprints over a lot of guys will just stay off 27 and 12 they’re 11 and seven on the road so

Far as guilis Alexander has reinserted himself and he puts one down over the top of Harden yes yeah from a defensive standpoint that’s the shot that was an incredible shot there cuz I thought that was terrific defense By for a lot of contact underneath it’s just that his ability is such that he can knock that down with consistency black wh will coming before the shot this is Isaiah Joe dialing what up from deep I mean H has been on display here tonight number one and number two

Three-point shooting teams in the NBA Shay gilges Alexander P don’t like it but that’s definitely the right call beautiful looking stroke and Dort has it working for him in this first half he’s got nine so Sixpoint Clippers lead we come up on the final 60 seconds before halftime Harden again against Joe

Homering out of piece off the Florida gidy they don’t have numbers Joe spots up Corner Pocket bang the rim protection here by hram coming over gather it and then gidy pushing it there getting joe there Miner coming up American Express halftime report left coach Keel Candace Parker

And Jamal Crawford get you their first half thoughts beautiful looking stroke boy how about this half dorts putting together here comes jayen Williams the driving kick gets it to Dort he’s at a hot hand tonight gidy the offensive rebounding was all by himself and listen I will tell you that

He said he’s happy with the first half and how they played offensively say anytime you can score as SGA just gets a n one right there he said anytime you can score 61 points in the first half he doing something well Wallace on the redirection underneath the home Gren the fade missed it

Off the floor quickly to man contact and Wallace got a piece Here Comes gilas Alexander the driving kick to Wallace weaves in kicks out open three Isaiah Joe on a three-point Check Oklahoma City number two three-point shooting team in the league the only team better the Clippers ball knocked around Clippers

Turn it over and hren getting his hands dirty able to sliver through there and sells it just throwing that head back a little bit he is so good but looked like that one went off of Mason plumley’s head look like he’s okay Jes Alexander keeps coming here’s Isaiah Joe the drive and kick

Splash Tylo sensing the momentum shift from Oklahoma City SGA the Lynch pin Joe buries a triple Oklahoma City third highest scoring team in the league kenri Williams boy they badly needed that he’s more than willing to share it with everybody and the other thing I and talking with some of the

Officials from the league why don’t we have 15 man offers for the all to me it’s you do the game of disservice because they have been terrific here tonight this Alexander tough pass outside this is Dort that’s another three they’ve been so active defensively doing a better job of running the Thunder off

That three-point line boy Williams boy cled up it goes right into the hands of Wills right back to Williams who puts it down and in here nice find and finish there is averaging more points as a seconde player in the league entering tonight just like that they cut

It to KN power back rim did he looking to push Williams slithers in and he beats Martin down the floor one of the few times we’ve seen the Clippers not have floor balance on defensive transition hard against Wiggins but it’s a tough step back and he missed it

Plumbly on the tap but it’s Wiggins on the take me left hand and he’s fouled but these kinds of plays here can ignite you off Westbrook’s going to fire not that time and Williams on the pole Thunder looking to push beautiful back door cut Wiggins left hand finish and

Here come the Thunder 103 run I was just going to say it’s been the Clippers inability to get back in transition defensively here in this fourth quarter for jayen Williams suddenly the Thunder can’t miss Clippers have been able to keep the thunder in that half court they

Had had some success but once you get those baskets in transition to get your confidence back now all of a sudden the Thunder feeling really confident seven wins on the season second youngest team in the NBA look at that ball movement hren underneath home fine there we was able

To get that up again they don’t have that same level Alexander trying to find his spot Harden good defense to keep his feet this is Joe left splash it’s a one-point game the team that’s really been the best since December one in the league in terms of their record so impressive performance

Here L of Thunder 17 and four since down what a block by man they get it to jayen Williams from the corner and he buries it you see a great block by man but Joe stays with it gets it to Williams and his group will respond in kind moving

Forward Paul George 28 points after halim tonight And how far will this Clippers team go as the final seconds are going to come off the clock thean Oklahoma City is second loss in as many nights in this

Watch highlights as the Thunder ultimately fell to the Clippers, 128 – 117.
