Atlanta Hawks vs LA Clippers Full Game Highlights | Jan 8 | 2023 NBA Season

Final 41 games of the season, 21 and 20. The time is now for the Clippers to get going. No Clint Capella for Atlanta and it has been a problem for them but Okamu is a very good player. Exhibit A comes away with the block, late shot clock three by Terrence. Got the shot block but he was able to get it out to Terrence Mann who didn't panic and Kawhi Leonard and this is the end of the court we need to talk about. Beautiful play right there in transition. He is also, Jim I know you noticed this already, not wearing a headband. Young, late shot clock and he knocks it down. Shot clock goes into single digits. Leonard, long two. It is true for Kawhi. His first field goal he has a couple of his Clippers extend that lead 18 to 11. Should be noted. It beats the Zubats five points, five rebounds here in five minutes. Nine and two in total of 21 minutes against Rudy Gobert in the Minnesota Temples. Injuries in that lineup they haven't really played together to exploit that and maybe they're 12 to 7. Two final fours national championship game. Good to see that he still has a roster spot. Ninth pick back in 2015 Kaminsky with a seductive ball fake and lays against his father Adrian Griffin. Now an assistant coach for the Toronto Raptors. Wall, cover, feet into man. Dishes it to him. Brown with the punch. Hawks grabbed their first lead. It was short-lived. The Clippers hoping it is their last lead. John Wall trying to dissect the lane. He does. Goes back to Brown. Another flush for Brown. Jontae Murray, they gave up a lot to get him. We just haven't seen the kind of the pay dirt and stuff that he's not playing well. He knocks down the shot right there. Having won in the new year Atlanta trying to close out a trip that would have them go two and two with the victory. Johnson just 22 percent on the year knocks down his second. Hence the offense was able to benefit but in this second quarter seven to nine right now make that eight for ten for Atlanta. So the drop coverage means he's sagging off. Yes. Tell me what is the strategy there for what is Ty Lue trying to accomplish with that? To force the smaller player not to give up open shots like. Ten on the shot clock five minutes to play in the half. Leonard. Kawhi Leonard is going to have to take over here. He knocks that one in. Kawhi now with ten. It's 47-38. Let's see if the defense can get back to the activity this time. Now Terrence Mann went under the screen and you can't. Here comes Trey Young. Hawks out in front by 14. Young looks off the defense and floats it home. Trey Young now coming to life. He opened up one for five. Collins. Kawhi pull up three. It's good. He says the time is now. He's trying to take over this game. Leonard gets after it with Young. Now on the switch it's Morris nine to shoot. Not the Collins way easy and John Collins Hunter with the flush. Making the next next play. Makes sense? It does and the Clippers only needed one play and Terrence Mann made it and then he goes rim. The score would indicate as such. Hawks out in front by 14 have led by as many as 17. Leonard baseline jump shot. He is good. He's now got 16 for the Morris. Nice touch. Skies for the rebound and O'Connell who comes away with it quickly gets it ahead to Hunter. No numbers. Does not seem to care. Count it and a foul. Picking up the explosive point guard for Atlanta. Murray. High energy as there is in the league and he knocks down another shot. He has a dozen for Atlanta. Another quick trigger three. Straight but strong. Rebound tapped out by Mann to Morris. He hit from that spot and he does it again. 739 to play in the third. I mean I think we're going to see the jockeying all year in regards to you know game or two. Kind of like last year too. Good shot by Terrence. I can't see it. It's good. Clippers have trailed by as many as 17. Leonard spins to the rim and with 20. Young late in the clock gets around Leonard. Delivers a pass on the corner to Hunter. Intercepted by Senior. The Clippers have numbers if they hurry. Powell floats it up and puts it in. Trae Young on the other side. Clippers have outscored Atlanta 28 to 13 here in the third. Morris bluffing the three. Good close out there by Hunter. A drive and a dish. Morris the catch to Swish. Pretty good stat right? Giving up eight double digit leads. Second most in the league. Young battles back and knocks it down. Cuts the lead in half. Trae Young with six. Because at that time there was so much turmoil around the Brooklyn Nets. Hunter inside knocks it down to be clear. 21 point turnaround since the 153 march of the second quarter. Johnson inside spinning and laying it in. He now has 13. He averages five on the year. In the corner to Powell for a quick trigger three. Through with the rebound. Wall for three. Yes sir! The Clippers have had all the momentum here in the second half. They need to keep it. Griffin spins on Powell. Gets a good look and knocks it down. Coming off the bench she is three for three. 50 to 34. It's a huge advantage. Credit to Visa Zubats. Ball knocked free. Mann has it. Clippers on the power play if they push. Mann skates down the lane to the rim. This time by Nick Petun over DeJounte Murray. Brown 96 to 87. Petun picks up his fourth foul. Zubats scored Atlanta 92 here at the end of the quarter. What a punch down by Collins with a play coming out of the timeout for Atlanta. Points and nine rebounds from Moses Brown. Clippers out in front once again by nine. Kang Wu inside washes it down. Timeout Clippers. And once again off that pick and roll. Under seven to play. Powell drives in on Young. Feeds in the corner to Leonard for three. It is good. Oh my. Highwood 25. Time to slow down Young. They find Murray on the wing for three. He cannot retaliate. Okongwu with a rebound. Back to Young for a deep triple try. It's good. Young with his. The Clippers just have a lot of shots falling down. Now another turnover. Second and three possessions and Hunter lays it in. 102-100. Clippers have got to run through the tape. Hawks recover. Young dangerous in transition. Finds Murray for the tie. Timeout Clippers. 11 unanswered for Atlanta. 355 to play in the game. Dying to shoot. Morris rises from 20. Yes sir. By moving the ball by the Clippers the result didn't reward him on that. Murray a contested floater. Crawls through and cuts the lead in half. Young the floater for the lead. It is Morris, Batum, Leonard, Mann and Norman Powell out there for Tai Lu. And here we go. Leonard into the paint to the ramp. Double clutcher. Lays it in. We are. And you see him. Okongwu here it comes. Young goes to work. The floater. And once again Trey Young delivers Atlanta by two. Two to tie. Three to take the lead. Nine to shoot. Leonard wants it all. The three. Mann with the rebound. Back to Morris. Shot clock is off. This is for the lead. Rebound Collins. Clippers have to foul. A whistle comes. Seven remains in the game. Casually knocks them both down. Clippers battle all the way back.
