I think so. These jokers need to get the (bleep) out of our city.

Nope. Staples Center is used for a million things.

It hosts the freaking Grammys every year. It doesn't get worse than that.

No they are not.

They are that annoying tenant we keep around because the rent money is good

Yes, last Clippers game this season, I don't think Spurs choke at home. (bleep) the Clippers. Jordan and Griffin cannot stop old ass Duncan lol.

I think the last couple of losing seasons from the Lakers have done more to taint Staples than anything else. 116 losses in the last 2 seasons.

Pretty sure he's poking fun at the slogan on their T Shirts. Honestly feels a bit insecure of them. What other team needs to state the obvious of what city they're in? Do they wear "We are San Antonio" shirts over in SA?

We're a tenant too.

Bigger things to worry about like getting this team back on the winning track!

Why are they annoying? (rhetorical question)

Maybe its because they cover the Laker banners, mouth off how LA is there city, and make themselves at home in the Laker quarters.

I think they got it all wrong. Clippers should accept that this is a Laker city. The Lakers have earned it. Clippers should respect that and one, leave the banners and Laker quarters alone. Two, don't make taking over LA your goal. Share it with the Lakers. Maybe moving to a new stadium would not be a bad idea. They'll get more respect from Laker fans if they don't try to directly compete with the Laker Legacy. Respect it. And build your own at the same time. They'll have more Laker fans cheering for them.

I wouldn't expect the Clippers to "respect" us any more than I'd expect us to "respect" the Celtics who have more rings than we do.

Moving to a new stadium will do nothing. Two teams from the same general region will always be rivals (i.e. Angels/Dodgers)

Canada would gain more respect from the US if they just admitted North America belongs to us. But they have the gall to fly their own flag instead of the U.S. flag. That's annoying.

Our city? Hell, the Lakers aren't even home grown. I don't think LA has any home grown squads other than the Kings and possibly the Angels.

Yanks and Mets play in different stadiums and they still hate each other. Clips just need to move out of Cali

To be quite honest, Staples Center is the most soulless and sterile venue/home arena I've ever experienced. There is nothing enthralling about the building itself when there isn't a Lakers game going on. It might as well be the Clippers' arena.
