Kawhi Leonard Speaks On 2024 NBA All-Star Game, Clippers’ Title Outlook

For the most part the NBA’s been pretty good about switching up formats things aren’t working is there any format you particularly like in your past years or um I mean not really I think the last like kind of close to being competitive was the one in Chicago um but uh I mean

The game just has to be close I feel like um tonight it wasn’t um you usually see uh you know more um I guess you’ll say people uh trying to play guard and play defense is in the fourth quarter this is a smaller City but what impressed you the most about Andy

Putting on a big event like this um just the fans I was saying they showed a lot of love um a great uh you know basketball city um a lot of history here and um you know even in a cold you know they came out and was out showing love

Good to see before you guys goh iocus on on the season how do you guys kind of kick back up after this break uh we’ll have practice um guys are doing stuff on their own so uh we know it’s not summer and we have uh more games to play that games pretty critical

Obviously a tibre situation you guys want to win every game but um is there an add add approach or you know intens to these kind of games now be close allar um not for me um you know what I mean I’m just focus on our team and

Trying to be the best team and make sure we have carryover so we could um you know reach our potential in your experience Home Advantage said you guys want to get the number one overall seed um I’m not thinking about that man you talking about playoffs and all that come

On well I got a question not as a direct reaction to this game but just the league is a briefly shooting lead and youve won championships 10 years ago where that was starting to build up and everything how do you feel like you know defending threes like is is how do you

Remove the make a Miss Factor like how do you approach defending that shot the three yeah it just depends on who you guarding and seeing how many shots they take a game and if they’re comfortable with the shots that they’re getting and uh just pretty much trying to do that

How do you do that from you know move the team like do you study more uh you working on your team concept pretty much and um you know depending on who you’re playing or the team you’re playing or the player that you’re closing out against uh you adjust last question Le

Games how cerebral he is different things he SE on the court maybe you didn’t know before you play um I mean I’m learning a lot um you know obviously I get to see every game he’s playing pretty much almost uh every segment that he’s in and um you know

Just little things that you pick up um I mean it’s hard to say just one thing but uh just learning to play with each other uh that that’s the key thing and um making sure that uh we are all comfortable on the floor that was the last one
