The reason I ask because both the Los Angeles Lakers and the Los Angeles Clippers both play at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California.

I'd say the Clippers, because they don't attract the high-profile celebrities that the Lakers do, and because of their lack of championships they are considered a "second class" team by most LA fans (not true this year!)

I agree hands down. Its been intense, especially last nights LA win at the staples center. Another good one has been the Bulls- Heat. There has been some tempers, plus the Bulls are giving the Heat some problems and making the games close. This years playoffs could be one for the ages!

The Staples Center was built for a few reasons.\n\nOne reason is as a replacement for the aging Forum in Inglewood.  The Forum, being an older facility, did not have all of the luxury accommodations of the newer arenas in other cities.  Building a new arena would allow for luxury sky-boxes to be added, thus increasing revenue from sales of the sky-boxes to high-end clients.\n\nThe second reason was to bring L.A.'s sports arena closer to downtown as part of a long-term plan to revitalize Downtown Los Angeles.

The Kings didn't make the Playoffs, and the Lakers just BLOW! Anyway, The Clippers are going to win the Championship This year, so don't worry!

Just go to another Kings game.  Inside Staples Center, there is a stand by the entrance on Chick Hearns Ct.  that adds letters and numbers on the back of the jersey's.  Don't know how much it costs, but I know they will do it at Kings games, and also Lakers, Clippers, Sparks, and Avengers games.  My dad and I have season seats for the Kings and I pass that stand every game on my way to my seats every game.

I think that Canada could get an NBA Team again because of the rising popularity of basketball in Canada, with the Toronto Raptors and all that, so I believe that if Canada gets another teem again, next destination: Vancouver, British Columbia because they already had an NBA franchise, so they might move the Memphis Grizzlies back to Vancouver sometime in the future. But I'm not sure whether this can happen or not.

Yes the Lakers and Clippers share the Stable center. But the Lakers are still the kings of HollyWood. The lakers are the ones who really own the arena.

G'day aznxgem,\n\nThank you for your question.\n\nThere is no way that you will know which game is best to watch until you see them. Some anticipated games are absolute snoozers while others that don't look much on paper turn out to be absolute snoozers.\n\nHaving had a look at the schedule for January, the most interesting home game appears to be the match against the Miami Heat on January 15 given the Shaquille O'Neal factor and the fact that they are the defending champion. Alternatively, you can use your feminine wiles on your bf to see if there is a match that he is looking forward too.\n\nYou  could try getting cheap tickets but the most desirable matches are harder to get cheap tickets for.\n\nI attach the Lakers schedule for January for your reference.\n\nRegards

It was an awesome game. I am a die hard Clippers fan so it hurt to see them go down like that, but that's alright. I will be at the game tomorrow night to watch them win game 6 and hope they beat the Suns over in Phoenix in Game 7! Go Clippers!

The Clippers had a better overall record than the Nuggets during the regular season, so they were given home court advantage. \n\nThe only reason the Nuggets are seeded higher is because they won their division. This is a stupid system that will result in the two best teams in the West playing each other in the 2nd round, and an untimely exit for the Mavs :(

Should be a very interesting series, very tough to pick a team. Clippers should give Suns a better battle. I know it's hard to say since Lakers took the Suns to 7 games but that was a joke. I think the Clippers will win

Home court advantage will still be a factor (Just not a big one cause both teams can still sleep at their own house) - but since season ticket holders get the first chance at buying tickets - For the Clipper games - the majority will be Clipper fans, and same for the Lakers.  The floors will still change of course.  \n\nThey will meet in round 2.  I think it will be a good close series.  The Clips have home court and a better team, but the Lakers have Phil Jackson who is a playoff legend.  I see the Clippers wining in 7 games.
