Brooklyn NETS vs Los Angeles CLIPPERS – FULL GAME – CPU vs CPU – NBA 2K24
They’ve got the number one record in the conference and because of it each night out their competition is going to bring it right at him yeah I think for the Nets they had a few critics coming into the season and now I don’t think they
Have any this is a club ready to not only make a deep run but possibly win it all well this is their goal there’s no doubt about that for what many expected of them so far they have not disappointed here are the starters for Brooklyn Cameron Johnson’s out there
With Dorian finny Smith then it’s Bridges then there’s Nicholas kton and it’s D witty in at the point and for the Clippers George Leonard of the forwards then there’s plumbley then Harden and it’s man in at the shooting guard position boy when asked to take on this
Rooll guys kawi Leonard has proven to be a reliable facilitator Den Wy against hard for Three Bridges and it’s the Clippers with the rebound it just couldn’t come out on top last time they took on the Nets that one was played in Brooklyn yeah I mean on the road tough environment they were right there but just missed some key shots you know what playing on the road
Is always challenging it requires a level of energy and focus you’ve got to match what the home team gives you and they didn’t do it and not allowing the shooter even an inch a breathing room on that one right he stays connected and great timing on the contest and the pass George from
Three-point L this is that one he’s over one from the floor and dors the Clippers are moving into a new Arena Inwood in 2024 can I think this this is absolutely huge for the organization part of establishing your own identity in Los Angeles will be their new Arena so
Exciting for this fan base that’s growing and growing do as we know Mel brid is famously traded for Durant but it’s interesting Durant was brid’s favorite player growing up and Kevin it’s always interesting when there’s a connection between the idol and the guy who is idolizing him but give Mel Bridges
Credit he has come into his own as a star this guy has proven to be a capable offensive player and it’s one of the truly legit defensive wings that you have got to plan for and the free throw oh no good and game one of the NBA season Greg is here
Does everyone get butterflies or is it just me no I’m I’m right there with you partner it the anticipation has been brewing for months nothing like opening six to [Applause] shoot and hard launches it from Deep rebound Brooklyn and when you are as good a shooter as he is you have to have
The confidence to take that shot might not always fall and for most guys I think you only want to take that shot if you hit a few in a row that is absolutely a heat check Johnson finds Vinnie Smith that’s in coming off an assist from Johnson Dorian finy Smith increasingly efficient
Offensively good feel for to rise on fire KY with a screen on witty in the basket by hard and he’s not going to miss that sort of an opportunity from Deep the Nets have gone two for four from the field so far [Applause] today Johnson outside kned away stolen by [Applause]
George tries again and it’s good on the lay up that’s just tremendous hustle from Paul George if you’ve got that frame go to work with it and so dwy with it he’ll bring up for Brooklyn they Trail by three finny Smith passes to den Johnson outside pass to Benny Smith
Down to five on the shot clock Bridget for three it’s tipped and even against defense as tight as that you almost expect him to still bury those plumbley with a screen on Den witty back to Leonard oh and the jam by Leonard well it’s Harden continuing to evolve as a
Playmate for this guy including his teammates making them feel [Applause] good Bridges out D they need this and it JS Harden with the rebound he operates well in traffic but still that’s just a tough play to finish shooting foul as the whistle blows he’ll shoot two free throws and
Over the years we have seen go Leonard continue Doris to battle through injuries Kevin he has been a Hot Topic as it relates to that loaded word load management but we have to be fair Kawai has had a number of leg and knee issues there is a certain amount of caution you
Want to take where his body is concerned the free throw good from Kawai Leonard boy Brooklyn G did all they could to assemble a championship team and look what happened yeah I mean Kev you take your swings in this league and sometimes it works sometimes you have to
Ret to and they still have some good players to build around Leonard’s some both you can tell when he steps to the line the kind of confidence he has in himself it’s written all over his body language they’ve been looking on sink offensively yeah that their offense has ground to a standfield
Oh and there the alley takes the alley pass and dunks it down and hard to decide which was better the pass the catch or the slam there’s no wrong answer Sensational Al and here’s Harden for three and it’s finny Smith with the rebound the Los Angeles Clippers they
Come in off a good out against the Thunder Johnson kicks in witty over Harden in W he shot is off Los Angeles leading by five hard outside back to Leonard this one for three rebounded by [Applause] Mets Dy with it saw him with 19 points is last
Ting down low here’s Claxton and that one is stuffed right through man he sure can get off the floor he one of the best in the business absolutely and out of bounds as Brooklyn gain possession let’s take a look at last year’s leading shot blockers you don’t
Want one of these guys in front of you when you’re coming down the lane well you look at Claxton second in the NBA a great defender and shot blocking is the element of the game that I think he cares about the most most that’s where he puts in that effort and
Energy here’s vny Smith pass to den witty drives to the hoop whistle blows basket is good so a chance here for a three-point play well that’s just a good possession Dorian finy Smith moving the ball he’s been working on that aspect of his game and with witty on the court doors
They’ve got a pretty good facilitator up there I think it’s probably one of his more underrated qualities to be honest Kevin Spencer obviously can handle it he can distribute it and he can keep an offense running smoothly most often we associate this guy with scoring but don’t sleep on his passing
Skills that one drops he dies it up and from undrafted in 2016 Doris Dorian Finn Smith now a player that every team in the league would CET well this is a long Wing Defender Kevin and he’s now made himself legit as a 3 andb prototypical player and he stayed at it under rewards
And now says my mom can finally put her feet up I have made it we know the Kawai has the frame to muscle through the opposition refuses to be held back in that they set the pick fires from 14 and again it’s Brooklyn converting this guy reads
Situations so well and he knows how to execute Harden outside to the middle he’s looking for Leonard and find him over finny Smith and it’s Leonard missing and it’s Den witty with the ball bring it up now for the Brooklyn Nets over Harden and it’s Brooklyn scoring again
And you see the ability to rise and fire from mid range even against that L well I’ll tell you I love that he’s not afraid to take on the size mismatch there Greg it doesn’t matter just make shots and look at Paul George Doris he really fits any system you can think of
Kevin that’s about two things the skill set and the mindset if you need him to take over he can change and get that line of thinking in his mind you want him to play a secondary role he can adjust there mentally as [Applause] well first one Falls for and da this
Next team kind of slim on the interior don’t you think how can they be most effective well you’ve got to press that Advantage as far as quickness and get out and run and challenge opposing bigs to cover you in space so he makes one- two as the second
One misses but 2023 season DB had a b end for the Clippers in the first round of the playoffs Kevin it is always difficult when the primary story line for your team in a season is the injuries and the unavailability of your players that is what cost the Clippers in the
End pass to Leonard no one near him that one’s all good now he’s three five from the field this guy is putting his fingerprints all over the game in this quarter he has flat out dominated the offensive [Applause] end Johnson outside pass to Smith it’s up three good
It’s Johnson with the assist that time finny Smith’s got five now that’s two bombs in a row from long range Den witty against turn plumbley with a screen on Den witty and here’s Harden for three and it’s finny Smith with the rebound finy Smiths got his
Sixth rebound on night this has not been a good period for this guy out of syn not letting the game come to him he’s going to settle down and make shots Clippers Trail by five here’s man hasn’t made one yet Harden outside passes it to leard over finy smth Leonard no one and
The net possession they’re on a 177 to5 run here bries with it and it’s hard picking him up and contact on the shot so he’ll be shooting free throws here what you love about Mel Bridges is he’s going to accept whatever his coaches and team ask
Of him this is what allowed him to be successful let’s take a moment guys get your take on the scor so far for the Nets and guys I love the movement doing a great job of just getting the ball on a string creating some opportunities I think the other thing they’ve done a
Great job of is making their presence felt inside converting tons of pain opportunities and he kns down the first one and you know Doris Brooklyn’s gone through a pretty tumultuous few seasons you know Kevin there have been some circumstances that were unpredictable contributing to what you’re talking
About and now a consequence a lot of turnover on the roster and on the coaching staff listen it’s never easy to make the kind of transition they’ve had to make free throws good from Brides first Trail by seven outside west and out of bounds as Brooklyn gains
Possession all right a chance to see some stats for D good season for him last year averaged 17 points a game six assists and three rebounds well fans of this team will take this kind of production from him without hesitation I tell you he has been a solid contributor
They have called his number and he has delivered for them and the Clippers making a change here coffee’s checked in and the Nets making a change here as well Walkers checked in for Mel Bridges Ben W he shot is off Los Angeles has gone a meager one
Six from three-point Lane since we got started out Side West it’s deflected and he recovers it the shots good from nice now here’s Den witty seven points in the game pass to [Applause] Claxton he kicks to Thomas Westbrook with the block wow Russ Westbrook when he’s engaged defensively he can send it back it’s p on the
Wing and a few seasons ago Norman pal was hopping around the NBA from Team to team you know remarkably Kevin though his locker and location may have been changing his play was consistent through that stretch and Beyond here’s a player who you know his game and he can deliver scoring punch wherever he
Is throw drops for power well one thing there’s no question about is that Norman Powell is a gifted athlete now it’s about rounding out that game particularly his shooting that one fall so he hit both of them net leading by three O’Neal dises W over W Brook kept the line here’s
Thomas it’s hauled in by coffee and Los Angeles guys shooting to start this game off 41% from the floor outside Westbrook ties finds Leonard five on the clock Los Angeles needs it off a shot here and the wing jumper offline Brooklyn gone two of five from three-point land here in the first
Quarter D outside and Thomas has it in the corner lets it go from Deep pow pulls it in and so pow will bring it up for the Clippers it’s a three-point game inside here’s Leonard down it goes that’s four made from the field he’s four of eight a toughness and tenacity very much
Describe kawhai Leonard’s game and for Brooklyn they’re shooting 45% from the floor since the game got underway it’s sent back by leard and pushing it up here’s the Clippers Westbrook with it defended by Den [Applause] witty there’s 47 seconds left here in the first [Applause] quarter and here is Thomas still without
A basket to the paint it’s stolen by [Applause] tyard the pass to westa takes it into the teeth of the and converts the way and the Clippers lead by one they’re scoring boat po of buckets it’s raining buckets from inside to end the gold streak five seconds
Separating the shot G clock and he makes that one claxton’s got six points last down for the Nets they won that game against Los Angeles Leonard the pass to Cari Falls nice Fe that time from Leonard Leonard’s got three assists now in this one there’s Thomas for three and he was
Able to put it up time but doesn’t fall Kawai Leonard has been on display for the Clippers between his points and his rebounds he was a star for him in that quarter we’ll take a quick break and then back to the action here and it’s been a pretty even game here
After one quarter of play and guys let’s get your tick on the scoring breakdown so far for Los Angeles how about the ball movement so far I mean the unselfishness everyone here just playing for one another and that can be infectious I think the other thing
They’ve done a great job of is making their presence felt inside converting tons of pain opportuni setting the FL for the next we’ve got Bridges Thomas is out there with then it’s O’Neal and it’s sh and it the center position stripped it away here’s Thomas and then Thomas with
The jam that’s a stomach punch guys turn it over and give him a free run to the bucket oh you’re so right no question who has the momentum now it’s still close though these teams have been neck and neck let’s see the response here Giles checked in for [Applause] [Applause]
Sh Westbrook feeling it out a bit to the inside it’s stolen by [Applause] Smith Bridges outside Smith kicks to Thomas for three rebound by the Clippers Leonard the pass to George Ty nowhere around him a shot good on the assist by Gorge Ty is got five oh
Nice work finding the open Man by George plays like this prove he’s a team player here’s Char and he’s fouled pretty hard on that shot but he’s got the chance to to pick up the points at the line and often players want to discuss calls with the officials but
Greg what was your approach with those conversations with referees Kevin well it depended on the conversation but at the end of the day you realize they’ve got a job to do just like you do and you try to keep it as respectful as possible and yet still be able to get your poin
AC [Applause] us and he makes the [Applause] first both good from the line that time the Clippers in the lead second quarter of action a minute and half played here’s Leonard again Los Angeles well the mid-range is Kawai bread and butter this guy can get to his spots and take whatever he
Wants it’s toas outside and Westbrook pulls it down Westbrooks got his fourth Rebound in more good work on GL there when it’s all said and done I think rebounding might tell the story in this game it’s tipped Smith against Westbrook Smith the pass to Bridges launches it and again no good by
Brooklyn Clippers leading by three pass to Powell now here’s George Firs the three that shot no good Quarter Two in just under two and A2 minutes gone by took him no time at all on that one Thomas Got 5 nothing well just tremendous awareness from Dennis Smith
Jr recognizing a teammate is open let me make the game easy for him and the Clippers decide take their first timeout [Applause] here PJ Tucker he’s checking for Leonard and then for Brooklyn Johnson’s checked in for Harry Giles and Dorian finny subbed in O’Neal time now to turn to our
Sideline reporter David Aldridge David thank you Kevin the Nets have been forced to Pivot from their Star Cross super team era the Whata ifs are Fading Into the rearview mirror now it’s people like Mel Bridges that are going to form the next new era and rest assured this
Team has dug its way out of far worse with the draft assets and two-way Talent on their roster their aim is to remain competitive Kevin and I think they are David thank you for the report here’s Bridges and again it’s Brooklyn converting sometimes mid-range is your bet opportunity Bridges more
Than willing to make that shot work outside wook the pass to terer the dish to George and the foul on Dennis Smith Jr that is his first foul of the game a different look for the Clippers Mason plumley’s checked in for Daniel Ty and it’s James Harden in for [Applause]
Pul and here in the second quarter of action as we approach for played Harden surveying the D clock at four can’t hit that one excellent deep from Thomas Early 2023 saw Kim Thomas just erupt as a score Greg we were talking about it every game a guy who was ready
To break out and Kevin I like using the word ready because he was given an opportunity and took it and he showed us all what a productive machine he could be you’ve got to be aware stay attached to Kel Bridges beyond that Arc this guy dangerous to shoot they get it [Applause]
Again now Westbrook an 11-point game for him in the wi against Oklahoma City hits the three-point B Westbrook’s got the game tied up here for the Clippers Westbrook aggressively attacking that screen and roll he will look for his shot when he gets separation off the screen Smith outside hooked
Away well a chance to check out Mel Bridges here a very nice season for him last year he put up about 20 points per game last season four rebounds and three assists and you talk about defensive presence he’s the real Difference Maker on that end yeah he’s always somewhere
Around the ball finding ways to help his team by shutting down the opponents and the first one at the line is good pretty incredible think that Russell Westbrook made the triple double somewhat routine the ability to fill up a stat sheet like few others in the history of the game incredible guys
Nicholas Claxton checked in for Dennis [Applause] Smith and Russell Westbrook drops him B vaness have gotten a little under 50% of their second quarter shots to find the mark four of nine all to here’s Bridges lumbley with the rebound defense ready for him on that possession he had
To be cuz he is so strong in the paint the kick out to Westbrook shoots a three rebound Brooklyn claxton’s got his fifth rebound this one Bridges against [Applause] Harden Bridges with it he’s got [Applause] nine and he drops it in from the low post Bridges has got seven points for
The quarter well good defense losing to better offense in that instance you love how calm Mel Bridges is in the face of that great contest George from Deep three-point L and A again no good by the Clippers Nets have gone five of 11 from the field since the beginning of the second
Quarter Bridges passes to Claxton Westbrook against Thomas dishes to Johnson excellent D there from George and here’s George bring it up for Los Angeles Hardon against the bucket bringing that three-point percentage up quite a bit this quarter shooting it well the lead’s going to get a little bit
Bigger if he can keep this up there’s the pick Bridges no one around him tried to answer that but that three is Off the Mark flippers leading by [Applause] three Westbrook pass to Tucker in the corner gge with [Applause] it two free throws coming up and they call the shooting foul
Now let’s take a look at the most efficient scores in the NBA from last year’s campaign well you look at Claxton leading the league and field goal percentage he always gets good looks and of course Mason plumbley he also shoots the ball so well one of the best as well
As these two shot the ball it was a nightmare situation for a Defender guarding either one of them it’s so hard to stop him from getting their shots boy Paul Jorge continues to prove himself an elite offensive threat Kawhi Leonard is checked in for Los Angeles man comes in
For Russell Westbrook and the Nets making a change here as well D’s checked in and both free throws good for Paul George no wasted trips at all they’re taking care of business at the line some tough offensive sets they want to turn it around yeah right now you
Just need a bu it to get some momentum Johnson wide open he fires that one Falls coming off DW’s feet they’re having more success from three-point range here in the second after a rough first quarter from Harden against Twitty hard outside just five to shoot outside Leonard fires from Deep rebound Brooklyn
Here’s DW he’s got seven Johnson outside back to witty there’s the screen and there’s call it’s going to be an illegal screen and let’s take a look now at kawh Leonard’s numbers coming off a terrific season and he’d make you pay every time he went to the line top 20 in free throw
% and who could defend him last season out there Defenders tried to body him up play a little physical time and time again he drilled the three anyway back to Westbrook he tries for three barries the long range jump Westbrook’s got a couple of three-pointers in the second the
Clippers confidence even from range has never been a Russell West problem this guy is Relentless in pursuit of points Den WT kick to Johnson and again Brooklyn with the triple that’s number two for him from long range in the quarter his third overall La has gone an
Even 50% from three-point range in the second quarter four for eight plumbley the pass to Westbrook and he banks in the layup Westbrooks 10 points now just in this quarter well they’re leading in large heart because of the work he’s put in in this quarter this is nicely done D
Outside and Finny Smith gets it go great finish what a setup terrific ball movement there up out plumbley Harden sets the for plumbley back to harden down low pickoff in midair Johnson surveying the floor that doesn’t go in had a chance though to take the lead Los Angeles

Now time for halftime so we’ll be back in just a bit to get the third quarter underway Welcome to our 2K sports Studio the Brooklyn Nets find themselves in quite a battle here tonight they’ve taken care of the ball they’re making smart decisions this is exactly the kind of game they were
Hoping to play yeah coaching staff has to be pleased great discipline very unselfish and now let’s take a moment to look into the future here’s the upcoming schedule you know I think for Brooklyn at this point you got to take every team you’re up against as a test asking
Yourself what can we do better than last year happens for us too Kenny you cook any new approaches in the offseason well I’m going to reveal though and that is it for halftime folks it is back to Kevin Harland and the crew for the second half [Applause]
We’ve got second in action for you and if the next couple quarters are similar to the first this one could go down to the last possession Kaw Leonard really has his fingerprints all over this one and we saw just how important he is for this team in the first half he was
Getting everyone involved his fingerprints were all over this involving his guys with his passes finding different ways to take advantage of the defense and in that first half we saw a pretty tight battle we’ll soon find out what sort of adjustments were discussed during the half man in at shooting guard
With George at small forward plumbly out there with kaai Leonard and Harden and at the point guard position so that’s the lineup on the floor of the Clippers in his short career Terrence mandor has been asked to play a variety of positions and rol and Kevin that’s a
Testament to his adaptability he he has started he’s come off bench one thing we know nightly he’s going to be tremendous with his energy and competitive spirit and he shows us all what the Breakaway Rim was invented for can you believe he almost brought the Whole Thing Down by hanging on that
Long dwit kicks to Johnson pass to Bridges back to Johnson five to shoot for the lead it’s hauled in by the Clippers and that’s how you have to defend him out there on the three-point line played him perfectly and there’s whistle that goes on Mel Bridges that is his first foul of the
[Applause] game here is third quarter just over a minute [Applause] play DW against Harden shoots over Den witty again Los Angeles how about the incredible handle from James hard that ball is on the string so crab the defense has no chance on it way from dity for two the
Shot good from Claxton finally they get one to drop that’s one of their first four here in third Harden against d wi h on the Wing and he finishes nicely on the layup Leonard’s got 16 points wow what a start to this half three for three dictating the pace on the offensive end they’re rolling early Three Bridges it’s rebounded by Leonard Leonard’s got his seven three of the game with that last one here’s
Harden that falls nice Le that time from Leonard Leonard’s got his fifth assist in this one net Trail by six and now we’ve got some time to check in from the sidelines he got for da there Kevin kawh Leonard continuing to work his way back to Peak after his ACL Terror during the
2021 playoffs he said I missed a whole year of basketball I don’t want to take anything for granted I’m just trying to live in the moment and bring a sense of energy for the team I’m still young I’m a lot stronger and I’m back so I’m happy
Kevin yeah good to see da hey thank you the Nets H most of their free throws tonight five of six and when you look at their numbers from a season ago 80% as a unit that’s something you’ll be happy with [Applause] free throw drops for in

Now shot clock at six Den kicks to Johnson off Target from outside flippers leading by six hard the pass to Leonard it’s hauled in by clacton Clon at nine rebounds now tonight over to the left wing and Finny Smith gets it to go finy Smith got nine this is what taking care
Of your body and strength training will do finny Smith Powers through the [Applause] contact leard with the ball working on finny Smith Nets Trail by four now here’s Den witty 12 points for him Claxton finds Bridges Fades and shoots it’s ha in by Los Angeles plumley’s got five rebounds
Tonight and the shots just continue to say no in terms of falling Plumley with a screen on Johnson here’s George hands the 12-footer nine points in the game so far we call that money from the mid-range BG doing his thing The Sweet [Applause] Spot here now is Den we Johnson [Applause]
Outside and foul on the shot he’ll shoot two at the free throw line that one on George in a moment to look at the soaring approach in terms of where the points are coming from for the Clippers their accuracy in this one has just been on another level I mean the
Three ball keeps falling and the defense just hasn’t been able to run them off the line also I just love how hard they’ve taken the ball to the rack theyve made a point of attacking it’s led to them getting buckets and the Clippers making a change here Westbrooks checked in
He’s off on the second Doris how about M from last season changing to shoot set shots left-handed after almost a decade in the NBA Kevin this is one of the most remarkable things I’ve ever seen to his credit it worked career highs forley from the field so much of this is about
Confidence on it way from d Wy for two and he hits the jump shot J Wood’s got 14 points for the game at the top of the key plumbley back to Leonard sweet little floater Leonard got four points this point and there’s a pattern starting to take shape here
They’re working it inside and getting good shots from close range pen witties for Van FL Jon can’t hit boy what a nightmare quarter for this guy he’s playing right into the hands of the defense at this [Applause] point out died Westbrook knocked loose D Woody with the steel he kicks to Johnson now
Bries looking to end his c spell and the Clippers with the rebound plumley’s got his seven rebound of the game with that last one here’s Leonard going inside it’s good the assist that time from got the lead up to seven now for the Clippers and so it’s Den witty who
Brings up the ball for the Brooklyn Nets dishes it Bridges Johnson down low he’s covered by Westbrook and his seventh Miss in 12 shot attempts I’ll tell you it’s been a struggle for him in this period and they’re struggling as a result and Leonard gets it to go and now
It’s a nine-point Clipper lead and really this is the time to push it try to extend that lead you know they can make things much easier on themselves in the fourth that they just have a few more possessions like that and the Nets decide to take their first timeout [Applause] here
The Net’s making a switch here Thomas checked in now a chance to see the numbers for George he’s coming off an excellent season he was around 23 points a game five assists and six rebounds and what is crazy is that these numbers might not even do his game justi as’s
He’s been phenomenal feels like every night this guy does something that just blows your mind so fun to watch someone other players look up to harden outside passes it to Leonard with some mark That’s [Applause] tipped George against Johnson pass to den witty back Johnson from downtown in for his
Seventh B in 14 drives such a reliable threat from range you’d think the defense might key on him a little bit more plumbley sets the for George and he can’t answer back the three-pointer offline Nets Trail by four now Den witty he’s got 14 and the shot is Good from Johnson
He’s found his rhythm from deep and and you can see the confidence and I think the defender knows once he gets cooking look out the bucket looks awfully big to him right now he had a nice open look right there 20 for points for kawhai you
Can see it once this guy gets his rhythm he is so hard to slow down what an excellent night for him and his team to the middle Johnson finds inty back to Johnson for the tie that one Falls coming off D’s feet Johnson’s got all tied up now for the Nets and it
Just seems that every pass they make is leading to a score just great ball movement from Deep Hardon rebound [Applause] Brooklyn Johnson out side Den witty with it George picks him up the three from Johnson and the that’s another three that’s a dozen straight points coming off the triple Los Angeles
Has gone one four and three-point shots here in the third and the Clippers call time here and as the coaches go to the clipboard to outline their strategy during the timeout the players getting a chance to rehydrate with some Gatorade that’s key to staying fresh all the way
To the final whistle Kevin it really is and every one of these players knows it they’re all making sure to stay hydrated it’s impossible to play your aame if you’re not getting enough to drink especially toward the end of games when the physical toll of a long contest really starts to add
Up for the cers Daniel Ty is checked in for Plum air coffee comes in for George and it’s Paul in for James Harden Royals checked in for Brooklyn Bridges comes in for Nicholas [Applause] Claxton here’s t Five Points in the [Applause] game outside Leonard Westbrook a screen on on’ and again no good by the Clippers Nets leading by three 131 left to play here in the third Bridges outside pass to Thomas lock it six nice ball Movement by Vader on the way
Rebound Qui Leonard and it didn’t fall but that’s the kind of shot they want their offense to create you know it can be frustrating when you make the right play and fail to reap the rewards you just have to stay with it here takes it inside and oh boy a lot of
Contact there but he gets the call and will shoot two one of the key aspects for kawh leard scoring per game is his ability to get to the free throw line this guy lives there in advance for just a second check out the scoring breakdown for that’ss and guys how about the
Unselfishness and all about working that ball around Shifting the defense and just seeking out the best shot and the other thing guys that they’ve been very effective at is shooting the long range jumpers the defense has been having trouble closing out to them in this game and particular the first free throw is
Good boy why Leonard lets his game do the talking yes he’s soft spoken and quiet but boy he’s a big time player looking at who’s out there now for the Nets trendon watford’s checked in for Johnson and Smith subbed in for denway both shots good from the
Strike there’s a minute left to play in the third outside O’Neal back to Bridges hey who’s watching uses the glass to finish the layup Bridges got 13 points and after really leaning on that three-point shot in the first half seeming like they’re just getting away from it here in the
Second more of the shots coming from the interior ties gets to Leonard and foul on the shot so he’ll get a chance at the line oh man kawh Leonard tough cover just so good at drawing contact so far he’s hit all of his shots at the foul line going four for
Four and the first one drops [Applause] both free throws good from Kawai Leonard 29 seconds left in the third quarter Bridges outside that shot misses and so it’s Leonard with it he’ll bring it up for the CL beyond the AR nailed from three-point L Leonard’s got 17 now just in the second
Half here’s Thomas and the call on the shot that sends him to the line it’s going to go on Norman pal I tell you what he earned his money on that foul it’s his first trip to the line and he was dialed in at the line a season ago 87% from the [Applause]
Line the first one one [Applause] [Applause] Falls and he makes both free throws it’s all tied here in Los Angeles and when we return we’ll get the fourth quarter rolling right here on 2K sports and it’s time now to bring you our State Farm assist of the game yeah an easy
Choice tonight look at the Precision on this P put it on a platform when you’re the beneficiary of a pass that good you better deliver and he did just that and it’s been a very competitive game so far as we get rolling here in quarter number four on the cour for the
Nets getting the fourth quarter going Thomas is out there with Smith then it’s O’Neal then it’s Bridges and Watford in it Center good on the shot well on the Kat and shoot nor now ready to rise and fire Brooklyn [Applause] trailing Bridges with [Applause] it shot on the wing out to
Smith and that’ll be two free throws coming up officials on the call with the foul well make no mistake Denis Smith Jr is not afraid of a little [Applause] contact First free throw is good and we know that when Dennis Smith Jr is playing to his strength this guy is an
Effective player the key for him moving forward is he’s got to find a way to be [Applause] consistent both free throws good from [Applause] Smith here’s [Applause] Westbrook there’s the pass to ice here’s C they get a hand on it it’s stolen by Smith we’ve played just over one minute
Here in the fourth quarter he dishes it the tops Bridges against Westbrook six on the shot clock there’s Thomas the three and the three ball is good and the Nets lead by three and they have been Relentless from deep and you see the defense trying to
React but to no avail well that’s the whole point isn’t it if you face the floor well enough it’s almost impossible for the defense to account for everyone vetting here about 46% for the game Bridges passes to Thomas passes to Watford kicks it to Bridges three-pointer rebound by Paul George
George has got his fifth done in this one and the layup is there now you see Paul George stays strong and committed with the basketball totally focused on finishing Bridges outside just a little under two and a half minutes of pass now here in the fourth and he’s an automatic finisher
When he gets into that area is and he picks the simple one hand stuff to get the two-point outside George Ty sets a screen for George it’s pal on the [Applause] wing Ty with a screen on Thomas how no one around him the kick out to Westbrook
Tyson set a screen for West from outside off the mark That’s leading by three Smith outside pass to Thomas and the layup good off the glass Thomas got five points now this quarter you can’t just stop when there’s a pick setup got to fight over it as a Defender
You know exactly what that takes it takes energy takes activity it takes intensity and no good that time O’Neal with the defensive effort outside [Applause] Thomas two points that one goes Thomas got the Le up to S now for Brooklyn well if it ain’t broke don’t fix it they keep getting in the
Pain and continue to score consistently and Clippers call time here [Applause] get James Harden he’s checked in for Russell Westbrook Nicholas Clon checked in for the NS and with an update from the sidelines let’s check in with David aldri well guys over the break I was
Able to listen to teron L huddle told his guys I need you all to come together right now on both ends this game is not over and you need to go out there and take control now we’ll see how it looks coming out of timeout guys okay David much [Applause]
Appreciated George looking over the floor screen by he looking to get it going George no good after the strong first half this guy has not been the same and a largely a noow right here out to Smith back to O’Neal takes a three the rebound by Harden Harden’s got Le number five here
Tonight over Smith got that one and the next lead has been cut to just five points on the basket from James Harden and that was the right call but when you need a basket go to the guys you trust the most well you’ve got to earn trust
And Equity by making shots nice delivery there Baseline try again the nets for two get just what the doctor ordered here have they needed him here in the fourth Smith against Harden it’s George on the winging O’Neal with the defensive effort boy it’s been a struggle in this quarter and
The team needs more from him there’s no doubt he kicks it to Thomas shs over Powell that’s good from Thomas on the assist by O’Neal the assist toal Kevin just continue to grow they’re way ahead in that category ball movement has been awless Ty with a screen on o’ here’s George
Rook with the rebound and the well is running drrive for him right now nothing far and this is where you hope that he can find something easy so he can see the ball go through the net they set the pick here’s Thomas back Brides just five on the clock and it’s been a
While but he finally gets one to go and the Nets lead by 11 and George here we go it’s haed in by Clon claxton’s near the three-point line it’s Thomas that one rolling around and rims out and so George will bring it up for the Los Angeles Clippers [Applause] the [Applause]
Ball fade away it’s hauled in by claxon and guys this got to be more of a team effort right now he’s playing all for himself Thomases sh is off Clippers tril by [Applause] 11 from Deep Harden and with that three his second of the half he’s with his
Total from before the break timeout called that’ss and Los Angeles with some changes plumbley checked in for Daniel Ty Le comes in for air Crawford man in for pal and then for Brooklyn Dorian finny Smith checked in for O’Neal Johnson comes in for Cameron Thomas and
DW subed in for smith and Finny Smith to go that’s you call using your body playing a little bully basketball is Dory and F Smith Harden against dwit pass to Leonard good it’s Harden the assist that time 33 points for kawhai leard I tell you what what a good thing that he
Showed up today because without him this thing would already be over Johnson down time oh threw the foul and almost hit the three-point bucket and he’ll go to line to shoot three that one on George yeah there was definitely some contact there on the three-point attempt [Applause]
It and he’s good on the first of [Applause] three he hits the second the line and not a single free throw attempt in that first half but he has been far more active since the break and drawing some [Applause] fouls they can’t make it three for three the clutch player award debuted in
2023 what do you think of that you know I think it’s a great way to find more unique aspects of the game to celebrate listen players have Specialties Beyond just box scor and that sort of thing deserves to be recognized Harden against D here’s Bridges it’s stolen and here we
Go Harden head to the hoop a jam by Harden we’ve always known James Harden is a thirsty scorer and if you get him out transition look out he’s going to be aggressive DW against Harden and he gets the whistle two free throws coming [Applause] [Applause] up going on the first throw is [Applause]
Good and that’s good as he hits both his shots and so here are the Clippers H the pass to Leonard Plumley sets the pick for Leonard inside that’s going to be out of bound Los Angeles will retain [Applause] Possession long range from the inbound and another three for the Clippers and that’s his second triple of the Hat none for him going into the break now here’s in witty to the paint out to Bridges now the pass to den witty Johnson in the corner the three called in by Los
Angeles’s got eight Rebound in this game and he gets the basket officials blowing the whistle so a chance at the line for one more you know thought in the first half this guy was pressing he was rushing now he’s settled into [Applause] game wow they’ve made every free throw here in the second
Half Brooklyn lead by four timeout called the net we’re trying to stem the tie here yeah this is why you hate to lose momentum it can be hard to get it [Applause] back [Applause] ohes it up high plumbley with the rebound and it’s Harden with the ball for the Los Angeles Clippers Leonard
Good it’s Harden with the assist that time Harden’s got five assists in the game yeah and such a clutch shooter I mean he lives with a big shot and when he’s rolling like this watch out D dishes to Bridges pass to [Applause] Johnson and the foul on
Harden that will get him his fourth foul the [Applause] game here’s Claxton he’s guarded by plumbley lock at [Applause] six for three it’s hauling by Los Angeles Leonard got the glass covered here tonight 11 boards for him well Kawai understands now he commands so much attention that a passing ability
Has got to be on point it’s the now and here is [Applause] Bridges here’s the screen from The Arc D Wy against Harden shot clock at six oh my he’ll go to the line with a chance for a fourpoint play it’s going to be on James hard [Applause] and that one
Misses Clippers Tri by three outside l lays it up and baks it in L’s got 40 points absolutely no fear Kawaii Leonard welcomes these moments he relishes these moments One ey and left here in the fourth quarter dwit kicks to Johnson and another assist that makes 15 assists
He’s been one step ahead of the defense all game long [Applause] up top L Vinnie SMI defending money and one a sensational bucket to put them within one oh you just love seeing a player with absolutely no feel to me more often than not when you attack good
Things happen and there’s the foul it’ll go on Terrence man that’s his third foul so far on situation in effect will head to the free throw line for two [Applause] [Applause] he drops the first one and that will put them up by two yeah a national champion
In College Bridges has also played in the finals so Miguel is built for pressure moment like this and so both free throws are good and it’s a three-point game Los Angeles calls timeout they Trail by three 46 seconds left in the fourth [Applause] quarter [Applause] oh here’s
Leonard it’s good and that shot brings them toin just one let’s remember this is a former Finals MVP he will not blink the biggest of moments I think we’ll see them burn the clock a bit here yeah smart move nothing seems to be going his way
This quarter well not at the offens in then certainly he can not buy a bucket right now and it’s out of bounds the will take it the other way boy how big might this sort of mistake play out you never know but sometimes these are game changers and an intentional foul right [Applause]
There [Applause] first free throw is good and that will put them up up two Mel Bridges is lock solid in whatever role this team has given up now it is time to Stand and Deliver in the clutch at free throw line and so he drops them both it’s a three-point
That last free throw was a huge huge shot the difference between a two and a three-point lead at this stage is maer and the cers call time here they’re trailing by three 27 seconds left in the fourth quarter of this [Applause] one 27 seconds left in the fourth
Quarter and it’s Leonard missing and now intentional foul need the ball back as soon as is possible honestly just doing what they have to in order to get the basketball [Applause] back he cannot get the first one to drop tough one miss and he ends up making the second and
That gives them a four-point cushion 196 left in the game pass to man kicks it out to hard good and what a sensational bucket to bring them within one well if you need a bucket there’s no guy you’d probably want more than James Harden doing his then ball on the spring you
Need to score it no problem 7 seconds left in the fourth quarter and there’s a whistle that’s going to go on James Harden and so he’s picked up his final foul and he will sit for the rest of this game and luckily they’ve got terrific dep at that
Position if there’s one spot on the floor where they can afford to lose somebody that would probably be it so the first one drops and that will put them up by two second one is good Le both at the line and it’s a three-point game 6 seconds left in the fourth
Quarter a three for Leonard misses the three and so it’s Brooklyn who scrapes by with the win they break the hearts of every fan in the building with a dramatic late Victory and Kevin this is the kind of man you have to take a ton of pride in I
Mean they battled with everything they had and came through when the pressure was at its highest and that’ll do it folks for Greg Anthony Morris Burke and David Aldridge and the rest of our terrific crew this is Kevin saying thanks for watching as we leave you with the new balanced player of the
Game for St
