Locked On Clippers - Daily Podcast On The LA Clippers

• How The LA Clippers Fell Short In Crunch Time....AGAIN

  Los Angeles Clippers collapse in crunch time again as costly turnovers and rebounding woes lead to a 115-113 defeat against the Houston Rockets. With Kawhi Leonard off his minutes restriction and James Harden showing late-game flashes, why can’t the Clippers close out tight contests? Darian Vaziri explores the team’s NBA-worst 2-10 clutch record, questioning whether the stars are simply out of gas or if role players and coaching are holding the team back. Key discussion points include Ivica Zubac’s standout 33-point performance, the Clippers’ alarming 51-28 rebounding deficit, and the ongoing struggles of role players like John Collins and Brook Lopez. Darian Vaziri breaks down late-game decision-making, the impact of missing support pieces, and whether LA can bounce back at home against the Memphis Grizzlies. Are the Clippers a few adjustments away from turning things around, or is this the new norm for the struggling squad? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!DoorDashNext time someone goes off for 50, use promo code  NBA50  the next day to get 50% off on DoorDash with DashPass — plus your shot at the Bag Drop.DashPass members only. 50% off up to $10 the day after a 50-point game with promo code.

• Does Chris Paul Need To Look In The Mirror?

  Los Angeles Clippers send shockwaves through the NBA after cutting Chris Paul—was it unavoidable or a major franchise misstep? Darian Vaziri unpacks the dramatic fallout from Paul’s controversial exit, exploring reports of locker room tension, behind-the-scenes criticism, and whether stars like Kawhi Leonard and James Harden grew tired of CP3’s influence. With the Clippers reportedly facing backlash and scrutiny over their treatment of franchise legends, is Lawrence Frank creating a toxic culture that could haunt future free agent pursuits? Vaziri spotlights how the move impacts the Clippers’ on-court chemistry, playoff hopes, and reputation across the league. Key storylines include the infamous 3AM cut in Atlanta, player reactions from the Lob City era, and real questions about Tyronn Lue’s leadership amid a floundering season. As trade rumors swirl and stars’ futures hang in the balance, can the Clippers rebound—or is the franchise at a crossroads with long-term consequences? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!DoorDashNext time someone goes off for 50, use promo code  NBA50  the next day to get 50% off on DoorDash with DashPass — plus your shot at the Bag Drop.DashPass members only. 50% off up to $10 the day after a 50-point game with promo code.

• Why The LA Clippers Blew An 18 Point Lead In Minnesota

  Los Angeles Clippers face a second-half collapse against the Minnesota Timberwolves as questions mount about their aging roster and leadership core. Can James Harden’s historic scoring milestone and flashes of brilliance offset Kawhi Leonard’s late-game struggles—and is Kawhi still a number one option on a championship team? The Clippers’ shooting woes, defensive lapses, and recurring issues with transition defense lead to yet another blown lead, despite aggressive starts from Harden and Kawhi. Die hard LA Clippers fan and Host Darian Vaziri dissects the Clippers’ 106-109 defeat, spotlighting Harden’s 34-point performance, Kawhi’s restrictive minutes, and Brook Lopez and Bogdan Bogdanovic’s inconsistent returns to the rotation. Key topics include Zubac’s free throw struggles, John Collins’ disappearing act in the second half, and looming trade deadline questions as Los Angeles slips to 6-18. Will the front office blow it up or double down on a fading vision? Clipper Nation is at a crossroads—listen in for the hard truths and what’s next. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!DoorDashNext time someone goes off for 50, use promo code  NBA50  the next day to get 50% off on DoorDash with DashPass — plus your shot at the Bag Drop.DashPass members only. 50% off up to $10 the day after a 50-point game with promo code.

• How The LA Clippers Ran Out Of Gas In Memphis

  Los Angeles Clippers falter late as Kawhi Leonard and James Harden run out of steam against the Memphis Grizzlies. Is LA’s playoff hope slipping away? Darian Vaziri breaks down the Clippers' tough 107-98 loss, spotlighting the Big Three’s heavy workload and the role players’ shooting woes. With critical minutes restrictions, a lack of scoring punch beyond Leonard and Harden, and John Collins struggling on both ends, the conversation shifts to the young prospects forced into key rotation roles. The episode tackles questions about Ty Lue’s substitution patterns, the effect of missing veterans like Bogdanović and Derrick, and rising trade speculation. Will Clippers GM Lawrence Frank and the front office finally pull the trigger on overdue roster changes? With the team sliding to 13th place and facing mounting pressure, how long until the Clippers shake things up—or is time running out for this core? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!DoorDashNext time someone goes off for 50, use promo code  NBA50  the next day to get 50% off on DoorDash with DashPass — plus your shot at the Bag Drop.DashPass members only. 50% off up to $10 the day after a 50-point game with promo code.
