Los Angeles Lakers vs LA Clippers Full Highlights 1st QTR | Jan 23 | 2024 NBA Regular Season

Starting five for the LA Clippers balls in the air away we go Kevin Scott Carl Lane Jason Goldenberg our three officials Brian Forte and Evan Scott in the replay Center and we are off and running second of our double header tonight on TNT NBA Rivals week and this is one of the best

Lakers and Clippers here’s Kawhi Leonard gets up the first shot and that’s how the scoring begins but but that’s off of outstanding ball movement the double team to Kawai early he gave it up but then got it back right in his sweet sweet spot able to get the party started

With that too Lakers at an even 500 at 22 and 22 and they’ve been kind of riding along at 500 inconsistent team this year as Prince cannot connect on his first try Clippers at 27 and 14 they are rolling right now Harden’s been a big reason why and Harden the

Facilitator maybe more so then the score as man misses and AD secures what when James came in it was all about facilitating making plays for his teammates actually his teammates and coaching staff had to coach him to shoot a little bit more but once he got comfortable and found his way he’s been

Kind of reminiscent of the old James Harden Ball’s moving well for the Lakers in and out from Reeds offensive rebound aim mura sets up Russell who has been on a tear lately D’Angelo Russell Jimmy his name swirling in the trade discussions Chris is going to have more on that in a

Moment he is lit it up here in the last six games well kudos for him for being able to focus in despite a lot of the noise outside talking about the trade possibilities three-pointer flies for man just sneaks over the front of the rim and Terren man a lot of iterations

Of Terren man as a member of the Clippers seems like he’s settled into a nice roll there goes ad his first bucket of the game Anthony Davis coming in averaging 25 a game 25 and 12 he’s also dishing out 3.7 assists per game Harden running with plumbley short

Gets his own and Harden looking for a foul didn’t get it now the Lakers push Davis tar re steps into a three Lakers are one of the better transition teams in the NBA despite not having LeBron James this evening you still got out and run and that’s

Another thing I think for the Clippers when they can play fast I get a non set defense in particular when they get a stop they’re as Unstoppable in transition being the athletes that they have on the wings aiura hits a three for the Lakers their second made three-pointer ruy Aima in that starting

Lineup backto back starts for him no LeBron James tonight Aura as you can see here on the bottom picking up Ka why Leonard a tough match up for anyone and there’s James Harden but you know why that play works because he pushed the screen down a little bit

And by the time he took a couple of dribbles he was right there 15 ft Russell trying to turn the corner with his right hand throws It Away George to man up ahead man taking on Prince with the reverse Clippers in transition they get a steal and fast

Break points and a three-point lead out of the gates both teams quickly plumbly guarding Davis they clear it out man comes to help Davis knocks down a mid-range Jumper by facing up ad was able to identify where the double team was coming at he was still within range didn’t have to take a

Rhythm dribble able to pull right up and shoot it and knock it in that’s candy for James Harden hey going left I mean you want to push him right but for what CU he’s just as strong going right but if you give him his left hand he’s still

Capable of hitting that little floater in the lane yeah we talked to DAR hand before the game you know everybody and he can knock in open shots been willing to do whatever they’ve asked Through The Years here teren man aura’s going to pull up o missed it badly never looked

Good out of his hand it was a year ago this time Aima came from Washington to the Lakers as Harden buries a three got the scoring bug early here Harden’s been a great facilitator as a member of the Clippers no question he can put big points on the board at any

Time Davis drops his shoulder plumbley pulled the chair from him back in The Sweet Spot Davis watched by plumbley again they clear it out he takes a peek of the clock now he goes to work and with three on the shot clock comes up short much different start for the

Clippers tonight than what we saw against Brooklyn on Sunday they were down 16 nothing to start the game the Clippers as Harden Travels With It Jimmy you were here for that game yeah a couple of comebacks Brooklyn had an answer but the Clippers found themselves down 18 in the

Fourth quarter they came back at one but the thing is the game never felt Out Of Reach and and that that was the key to that fourth quarter is once they were able to make their run offensively and defensively and that’s when they put Brooklyn back on their heels and

Brooklyn couldn’t respond Rell is fouled he got clipped on the ready for that a great job Chris and it’s call being a pro because you just don’t want to be in that situation as Paul George misses that shot but he’s responded well and the best thing he’s done guys is he

Didn’t talk about he’s all about being about and he’s playing well Austin Reeves goes to the basket lays it in Russell Westbrook on the floor for the first time for the Clippers coming off the bench now and he’s been terrific the Clippers have been terrific with Westbrook Off

The Bench I think the use of the word humiliated look I think people get upset by it so some of the words these players use but players are in the fire they’re in it and you were in it and play for a lot of teams whatever it takes to put

That chip on your shoulder go for it what but the word to him is all relative to his situation it may me something different to somebody else cuz he’s getting a lot of different conversation but again at the end of the day you got to do your

Job despite all the noise that’s going on around you basketball Lakers turn it over plumbley almost came up with the steal but did help Force the turnover there Clippers leaded by four Lakers have won the first two meetings of this season series three-point Lakers win just a

Couple of weeks ago third meeting of the Year they’ll do it again at the end of February as Paul George with the left hand able to lay it in and little contact from ad but PG able to turn the corner get around vanderville but then also ad how about that coll

This felt like a good day before a road trip starts for the Lakers gym that they give him off and then get him ready for this six game Road Trip they have coming up yeah long road trip and as you know as you get older those injuries tend to

Hang around a little bit longer I don’t care how much we think LeBron is Superman that’s still the case here’s Westbrook his first drive knocked it out of the hands of Davis Davis secures it Lakers do have the Bulls Thursday here and then that Ro trip begins Davis

Denied at The Rim good defense Westbrook ahead of steam and Vanderbilt running the floor Davis down there cherry picking and he throws it down easiest basket he’ll have all night yeah but that’s good transition def defense by Vanderbilt getting back Russ Brook unable to see him turned it over nor pal

Missed it Vanderbilt flying high with a rebound already having an impact in his minutes Reeves falls down but it ends up in the hands of Davis who lays it in and we’re tied at 20 yeah nice little comeback here by the Lakers but a lot of

What they’re getting to this is what can help them against this Clippers team is to get out in transition how do you do that you get your initial stop finish it with a defensive rebound and then get out and run Rees guarding James Harden step back three flies Harden rattles in and out

Davis Vanderbilt said I’ll let you have that big fella you know big fell wise move always to give mad when us guards to come in and Gobble up those rebounds back to Davis he scored the last six for the Lakers we go under four minutes of the first quarter Bullet Pass

To Vanderbilt and he misses it badly tried to share it with him plumbley kicks it Harden’s open in the corner down it goes time out on the floor James
