It will always be a Lakers town, even if the Clippers win.

LMAO. You must have never been to LA or know anything about our sports culture. Clippers represent the counter culture of LA.

Chris Paul and Blake Griffin were always booed at Dodger games even when their Clippers teams were winning a lot of games.

Kawhi and PG better get used to this. They're going to be booed at their own home Clippers games.

They should have known better.

Clippers have the better roster, coach and ownership. Lakers have the better history and fan support.

L.A. will automatically boo any superstar who is in league with Clippers. The Lakers value superstars, to the point the superstar himself has no other choice in the matter, as if it's an entitled birthright to obtain every elite player out there in the market. Since Leonard never joined the Lakers, and in fact had no interest in them, Laker fans are thinking Leonard "betrayed" them. It was the same thing with Chris Paul, but under circumstances pertaining to executive meddling.

That’s bull the Lakers have always represented the high life celebrity rich experience. Their stuck up culture was only tolerated because they were winning but you better bet when the Clippers were in house it was packed and rocking.

Lakers didn’t even want YG and Nipsey Hussle performing so they did with with the clippers

I’m talking about the people of LA you clown. Those from out of town or those who don’t want to be normal root for the Clippers. The outcasts, don’t be offended if you’re one of them.

The people of LA bandwagon. That’s the damn point the Lakers could give a damn about the true locals of LA. It’s a weak myth people trying to act like the Lakers represent all of LA they represent the rich and famous and everyone else grabs on because they were winning consistently. Your whole counter culture point made no damn sense because the Lakers don’t even market themselves to the true culture of LA which is grimy and mostly the struggle worker.

The only thing factual is coach, and that great coach hasn't even taken them to a conference final over how many years?
