- The LA Clippers have one game left to play if they're not careful. Game 6 in Dallas could spell the end of them unless Paul George and James Harden have one more major performance in them, at least.
In this episode, die hard Los Angeles Clippers fan and Host Darian Vaziri talks about the 3 keys to getting the job done in Game 6. He talks about the first step, which is the dire need for big performances from the stars, James Harden and Paul George. He also talks about the defense, coaching, and how much the guys want it.

I respect the heck out of you for talk about your team after a loss💪🏽
Go Mavs ❤😊
thanks so much
Flights from Dallas to Cancun. No need to go home to LA. Hahahaha. Let’s go, Mavs!
When you watch that Knicks vs Sixers........that shows heart, determination and fight to win!!!!
When I see the current Clippers play with Harden and PG at the helm.......soft, laid-back, nonchalant..........no fight!!
Luka hasn’t been that great overall and kyrie is not as consistent either. It’s come down to role players. Dallas role players are outplaying clippers by far.
@@andreslancheros2863 Luka and Kyrie have been better than any duo on the clippers team. Fuck all that role player shit. Your stars are ass.
@@andreslancheros2863not at all bruh
@@andreslancheros2863 Hell nah. PG, Harden, and Westbrook are playing subpar either. The difference? The Mavs still try to win the game despite being down by a big margin. That 31pt comeback almost had the Clippers on their toes. Clippers, after being down by just 15, lost motivation in the rest of the game afterwards. That's the difference.
@@andreslancheros2863 what?
For the love of God can we give Theiss some burn? May not be defensively as threatening as plumlee but offensively he'll be better for sure
No way mason plays so maybe. I’m hoping PJ instead of theis
Honestly I know he doesn’t know the schemes that good yet but I want Kai. We need a young athlete on the floor
@cnote8tv Theiss was great when Plumlee was out and he was our back up. Also Kleber killed us in game 5 with the 3s, plumlee has no chance against that but theiss might
Factz I been saying this !!!
You telling me you don’t love plumlee trying to run the ball full court ? Lol
Cancun on 3
Hope yall got them flights baby! Enjoy cancun 😂 MFFL!!! 💙🩶💙🩶
I applaud your efforts. It is hard to talk everyday on your own for an hour. There isn't another Clipper's Fan who can join you on the podcast so there is a back and forth?
There’s no clippers fans
He’s done some interviews with the Mavericks pod
Initially I thought i wanted a co-host but now I realize how bad of an idea that would be. less money for me and I'd have to coordinate the show every day and I'm a serious night owl
@@davidenriquez1218 oh no there are
Ive made that commitment twice in my life. See you next year 😂
There was a sign outside your arena for a flight straight from Dallas to Cancun... hope yall took advantage! Great series yall!! GO MAVS!!!!
Dallas players have been more consistent. Mavs haven't even played their best ball yet.
1...2...3... Quintana Roo!!! Go Mavs. For real though, I expect it to be a battle tonight.
Thies and PJ need to play Clippers Fan since 88
Theiss Yes!!! PJ just can't put ball in the basket anymore is the issue
hats off. you are the real one. I can only imagine how ridiculed you were for more than 20 years. I bet i felt great when Vinny Black together with CP3, DJ, and Blake turned everything around. Getting CP3 turned Clippers into franchise, that is now a regular contender. i DON'T know if you missed playoffs more than once since then. That allowed you to get other superstars, and quality players. Like Jamal Crawford, JJ Redick, Eric Gordon, Pat Bev, Zu, Kahwi, Serge Ibaka, James Harden, Daniel Theiss, Tobias Harris, Nicholas Batum, Russel Westbrook, Montrezl Harrell....Doc Rivers continued riding the wave (I think he is the one that missed the playoffs), and now you have Ty Lue. Proven, yet still young, head coach with Championship on his CV. Hope you could keep him for a long time. The only mistake, and it's a big one, is getting played by Sam Presti in Pasul George trade. He asked for Danilo Galinari, 6 first round picks (one turned out to be Jalen Williams), and let me have that rookie Shai, he didn't have a great season. PG13 is 33yo and is about to become a FA. Thunder already has a brutal young core and enough unprotected picks to create a dinasty. Hope LAC don't go back to pre 2010 years. Btw, I think Dallas will go to WCF, and I think Clippers would too.
I just did the Math. The Mavericks beat the Clippers 642-602 in the series. The Mavericks won by 40 points. That was a crushing win.
Not to mention the rebounds and assists 😊
Teams need to blow up
As much as I’m trying to be optimistic and hopeful, it’s hard when our two best players are on and off. Oh, and I forgot about Kawhi 😂😂😂😂😂
Good series best of luck moving forward
You're a real one, man. Even though I'm a lifelong Mavs fan I'm hitting that Subscribe. Keep up the passionate fandom!
Thanks so much man

Enjoy the trip to Cancun
Cancun on 3!!!
It’s over. Let Paul and James walk. Keep Mann, Zu, and Norm then build new young talent around kawhi for the new dome
Let Westbrook go too he’s a cancer
Yeah build around the guy who can't play when I need him 😂😂. That makes sense, they're trying to sale tickets for the new stadium dude
We’re kind of stuck with kawhi. It is what it is
Series isn't, but a title run more or less is. PG and Russ are the main Qs.
You want to be rid of Coffey on the basis of a couple tepid playoff games? And Theis, Bizzy and Boston on the basis of... _what??_
James likely isn't going anywhere. Kawhi probably isn't either, because nobody is going to pay him $50mil to come off the bench.
@@shaft9000 Their not getting rid of PG, you guys have to stay in the "know". However, it's time to move on from Westbrook, they will probably replace him with a better backup PG. Coffee is a 3rd string player, you're getting 3rd string play out of him. Norm has been one of the biggest disappointments on D and O.
You guys probably don't want to hear this but the Clippers are going to try really hard to keep James Harden. What the Clippers will look to do is to build a better team around PG, Harden, and yes even Kawhi....sigh, especially at Kawhi. From what i've heard the clippers still want him around. Personally, I'd move on from Kawhi....You didn't hear this from me but..Ballmer really, really likes PG.....
OH....I do not care if you believe me or not. I'm not asking for you to agree with me, I'm just sharing information. OH...lastly, the Clippers want to keep Tye around, I totally understand why...
how to beat the Mavs? handcuff Russ and Plumlee to the bench and mail the key to me!
I hope Ty lue does this and mail you the keys. Russ about to shoot the clippers out 😂😂😂
Cancun on 3!
JJ here - hope to catch you Sunday game 7 @ 207. Go clips !
I’m not even gonna crash out if we lose I have no hope
Mav fan here...smash the like button! See we can be friendly 😀
Thanks for the pod, Coach. I imagine this will be the last time I listen to you. I've made a promise to myself that if the Clips don't make it out of the second round, then I'm done. I've been a never-miss-a-game fan since 2010, but I've had enough. I watch basketball to enjoy myself and watching this franchise collapse year after year after year is not enjoyable. It's gotten to the point where I don't even enjoy the regular season anymore because I know that it doesn't really matter. This season, having Kawhi play all year and then get injured. It's just too much. Maybe I'll revisit the team in a few years.
I wish you the best.
Go Clips!
you got to see one conference finals, the best result in the franchise history. Atleast you are a fan in the age of Clippers having best results in their history. Imagine supporting Clippers in 1990s. Always in the Lottery, always drafting wrong players, arena never sold out, except when playing Lakers. You get to watch them in the playoffs every year, yet you are complaining
Come be a Mavs fan! You'll love it!!
@@ashtonalexander2431 Not a luka fan, but thanks for the offer. He's a great talent but his brand of smirkiness is off-putting. You'd think he didn't get beat by the lowly clips 3 of 4 tries and didn't need the clips superstar to be injured and be outplayed by his own teammate in order to win. But congrats to you and your team. The young talent is awesome.
@@AVAXII True, but I can't take the playoff injuries anymore. I'm developing a nervous tick. I actually would prefer to root for under-talented team that gives it their all then watch superstars collapse. It's not just Kawhi, it's something about the culture. I will reconsider if they clean house in the front office and get rid of Kawhi and PG.
@@TheBirdieparbirdie PG trade was a trainwreck. you gave away SGA, Gallinari, and like 6 unprotected 1st round picks in 2020s. And PG might leave as a Fa this summer
Cancun on 3?
Cancun?
Agreed D. Good analysis.
thank you
If all the mavs show up like they did last game its over!!! Will luka close it out with his signature triple double beatdown 😮
Luka and Kyrie dismantled Clippers. Luka 28 pts, 13 ast, Kyrie 30 pts, 4 ast. Luka is a ball hog, no one wants to play with him...bla, bla. Wonder what Gafford, Lively, Kyrie, PJ, think about that. Guy is destroying since he step on the NBA court. 1st season- ROTY, after that each season All Star, and All NBA First Team. This season he added scoring title. He isn't even in his prime, he will start peaking in 2 years. MVP next year. It's time. They won't give Joker 4th. But it will be hard. Stephen A Smith, Kendrick Perkins with spewing hate, Embiid with crying, and people like that will do everything to stop another international (if you know what I mean) guy to win it.

It's over, bro! If the Clippers win tonight, they will lose game 7. It's just what and who they are, inconsistent. It's time to blow it up 💥
U people so sad
LOCKED ON CANCUN CLIPPERS
U so sad
use theis and pj tucker for defense the mavs got so many useful bigmen
Not sure about PG, but Harden doesn't care. He cares about his new contract, but not about winning for the Clippers.
good season brodinski. keep russ. trade everyone else for young talent and picks.
Would enjoy your great work even more if you covered the Mavs. 😅
Good work!
Forget about tonight's game, it's only a snapshot of the underlying issue. This team has a fatal flaw, they're hurt at the most inopportune time and they're old and only getting older. Regardless if you win tonight and win on Sunday, how many big games can you get out of PG & Harden. Blow it up!
I have been a Clipper fan forever, i remember Swen Nater, Bob MacAdoo, Benoit Benjamin, Randy Smith, ErnieD, and Danny Manning. Tonite the season will end, they are just not good enough, especially without KL. Sorry fellow Clipper fans, i have dealt with the pain for 50 years. Stick a fork in them they are done. I hate giving up all the draft picks for old all stars, the future looks bleak. Good nite Irene, the stiffy Clippers layed another egg. Great show DV, you are a great podcaster, who really cares.
thanks so much man you deserve a ring more than I do
Cancun??! Let’s go mavs! #raccoonsquad
Let it ride 😎
I lost faith man. I don’t think we can win this series. We need PG and Harden to play like they did in game 4 and I don’t trust they can have 2 straight games like that. I don’t. If they play awesome today they will not sustain it and play like that on game 7. It’s over. I’m sorry but it’s over. Especially without playoff Kawhi
it’s going to fall on Paul George… just like back in 2021 against Phoenix in the WCF down 3-1 Paul George came out and dropped 45 we need THAT PG to show up if not season over man 🙏🏽🤷🏽♂️
Facts. PG needs a good start to be cooking. Cause when he isn't aggressive at the start. It's too Little too late

Clips have only won one of the last 4 games. Both games the Clips won, the Mavs had an 8 point quart and a 16 point quarter. That won't happen again. This series is over tonight.
Cancun??
LETS GO MAVS!!!! 🍆 💦 on the Flippers 💀😂😂😂😂
If Ty not playing Theis with Russ, Bones should play instead of Russ.
Plumlee doesn't open the floor for Russ, Theis does. Buy Bones can open the floor for Plumlee.
Hope they win tonight. PG needs to take 20+ shots and Harden at least 15+. And not all 3s please unless wide open or hot!
Terrance Mann is injured too. He is questionable for tonight
Darian, have a little hope🥲 yes, George & Harden are not consistent but hopefully they'll be on mark tonight on game 6. And if they do win tonight, they'll be gunho for game 7.
Hope too Lue puts the right players on at right min utes. Regardless, I will stick with Clippers because of Kawhi Leonard, who this 88 year lady follows wherever he plays with. Dieheart "love Kawhi" fan.
No player outside of Lebron has a good game very game. They had a super off game which everyone has and now it’s out of the way.
PG too cool for school
He’s more focused on talking points of his stupid pod then playing well in a pivotal game 5 at home
@@MoggingOnAPrayerfire Lawrence also for giving Kneewhi free $
I choose not to die! If harden n pg can combine for 60 we gonna win! But please be extra aggressive tonite guys!!!

luv your show, but if u need to shoot like hell to win, you're just a lousy team
This is it bro we have to win please
If we lose tonight, we need a new coach who is willing to play the young guys. Minnesota, Oklahoma, Knicks, Indiana, Boston, Cleveland or Orlando, Denver; play their young guys. Clippers need to do the same thing going forward. The 5 oldest teams in the NBA are at home
Coach Lue will return....
Clippers are seeking to extend Coach Lue contract keep him away from Le Bron Lakers
The pessimism in clippers nation is wild. Like yes it sucks we’re without kawhi but it’s a 7 game series. I for one still believe in the team. Harden and PG will come through I just know it.
I expect them to play well tonight but they are very inconsistent and that's just a fact and if it goes back to Game 7 we got a chance but beating Dallas twice is unlikely but maybe we can get Kawhi back and get him to come off the bench then I feel a lot better about our chances
@@nicolasbrown3698 zubac needs to be traded. I don’t care what stats say. Softest clipper in history
@andreslancheros2863 He played awful tonight & soft,but was pretty good in the series overall.
The Clips need to get younger period.What a joke throwing 40 yr old PJ Tucker out there,to go with our other oldies.
I'm over this team as it's constructed.
you were wrong yet again
@@LockedOnClippers yes I was. Still think we smoke them with kawhi
If PG doesnt shoot more than 20 times tonight im done

The guys just need to hit their open threes no more excuses especially if they see James is being doubled past half court
lol
Enjoy the off season
Already enjoying it more than the season
Already over yo. Pack up Clippers and the bandwagons, time for a trip to Cancun!
oh sure, it's "over"....and “Everybody acting tough when they up.”
might want to listen to your leader instead of acting a foll, hmm?

Cancun? Let it ride........#raccoonsquad #LUKAMVP #KYRIEOWNSHARDEN
Beware of an emotional letdown from the clippers stars.
Its over 🤷🏾♂️
Let's go Mavs!!!!
PG and harden are just frontrunners
Hit some shots. You cant have 20% shooting from your top 4 stars.
Do I have to remind these Mavs fans that they haven’t won a series against us!
Different team
Get rid f kawhi already and rebuild. He already ruined the franchise for 4 years with his glass health. HE KNEW he had issues this whole time
bench coffey ; start pj on luka, let pg go crazy and shoot 30+ times, play bones for instant offense in spurts, THROW THE GAMEPLAN OUT THE 213 ERA IS ON THE LINE 😂 ty needs to try everything today, play 1-10 man we have enough bodies to beat down dallass others and withstand a run
Might not be a terrible idea. Throw the Kitchen sink at em. Give them different looks.
@@Wokonwaterexactly ; we could possibly lose ty lue james harden paul george this summer for NOTHING so why not just go all out
I don't think the guys have confidence in Lue's adjustments at this point; 2 games this series down the drain because he started Kawhi without even timing a single run.
Lue drops playoff games left and right because he's snoozing and/or not aware of players' conditioning.
I suspect that tonight they are going to play loose and whatever happens happens.
Lue is on the block anyways, because going to 7 in R1 is not how a team of older guys wins a title.
@@reallynotmateo8805 Ty is under contract for 1 more year I believe
@@shaft9000 Lue is not under the block. Kawhi is always an excuse to why things didn’t pan out. If anything I can see Lawrence frank get canned
Cancu??
Last second shot for the win tonight by westbrook! Go Clips!
Clippers are objectively cooked unless unconscious from 3 like game 4 (18-29!). Harden in his career overall in Games 6 & 7 not good, no Kawhi, -8.5 to -9 Mavs big favorite for a reason.
If you truly believe Clippers winnin go bet now bc you win $2.75 to $3.00 for every $1 bet.
Clippers bad luck injury history continues.
Clippers in 6 ... uh I mean 7 ...
clippers in 9 bro you got it
@@observable3194 9 years?
Should they offer harden a contract??
There is no better pg available. He’s a good fit next to kawhi. Paul George is the big question and this game will determine what the offseason will look like for the clippers
@@andreslancheros2863 he's a good point guard too,he just cant be you 1st option there's not a lot of playmakers available they should keep him.
I am reading that the starting five will likely be back as well as Coach Ty Lue.
I don't think the front office will over react if The Clippers don't advance without Kawhi....
I don't believe Russ will opt in at that type of salary again(assuming there is no title defense at stake)
I think he will seek a new starting pg spot(if Billy Donovan is still The Bulls head coach i could see Chicago as a destination for Russ. If Vogel is fired in Phoenix, that's another spot i could see)
I'm not a huge Billy Donovan fan but i know if Russ plays for him, he will get to play like a starting pg.....
Hopefully the guys will win tonight and keep pressing towards a title!
It would be so cool to see Kawhi, PG, Harden, Russ, and Coach Lue as champions.
Of course the rest of the guys as well but i'm looking more at the famous star players.....
They represent the best hope for the ole geezer stars.....😂
Everyone is out except for The Clippers stars, Jrue Holiday, Al Horford, and Mike Conley.....
Get em Clips!!
@@sammyslam1 well I personally would run the team back. I don’t think them losing is a big deal without kawhi. Injuries are a part of the game we have to commit to kawhi fully. I love the clippers now so I hope I don’t have to switch teams. I would still support clippers tho after harden retires. I believe in Russ and harden !
@@andreslancheros2863 ...it would be cool if they both stay in LA and retire as Clippers.
I just don't see Russ wanting to come back as a reserve if his two seasons as a reserve didn't result in a championship.
I think he believes in his ability to impact games as a starter, playing 32-36 mins a night.
I see Chicago as a possible destination if Billy Donovan is still there and i see Phoenix as a possible destination if Vogel is not there.
I don't really see any other starting jobs for Russ.
Look, i feel compasion for you Darian, but you clippers already beat us twice recently in playoffs. Sry but now its Mavs time!!!! Time for you to feel what we felt in the past. Lets go Mavs!
True, but you guys have won a championship. And we’re trending towards the abyss with aging stars, no young prospects, and no draft picks. Y’all have some great years ahead of you

Hahaha enjoy the L
Cancun on 3
Should be an easy blowout since the Clips are great on the road. Concerned about how to deal with home court disadvantage for game 7 though.
Come on mavs fans we are not going to act like we have won already let's be calm and let our team do the work!!
sign and trade PG for Jimmy
Theres a lot at stake in this game.
Westbrook shooting has been historically bad this series even though he's mostly played good defense but to end the season shooting this bad is something else and pretty sad😢...And then for PG-13 to be non- existence in two out of these five games so far is inexcusable and Harden can't afford to have another bad game, otherwise I don't see any way were re-signing them, even if it means we suck next year,but prob have to because of new arena.
I am expecting them to come out and play really hard and well and anything short of that is a failure and I think I'll be done watching this team as it's currently constructed unless playoff time comes around next year and they're all healthy.
Best case scenario is they win tonight and then the Claw is ready to go for Sunday & can come off the bench at least, but even if they do win tonight I'm not confident whatsoever that they'll beat this Mavs team two games in a row,even though game 7 is back in LA, but you never know,especiallyif Kawhi plays...
It's been quite the roller coaster of a series so far😂
