Los Angeles Clippers vs Los Angeles Lakers

Once again, talk about a crosstown rivalry this is a same court rivalry between both LA basketball teams.

This rivalry even goes to the fan base. There has been arguments to who has the more loyal fans.

The Lakers have had 3 straight losing seasons and are on their way to a 4th. They is still time for them to make the post-season. However they need a miracle to happen if they are to make the post-season with a losing record.

LA has made moves this season to take the organization back to tis winning ways. They hired Magic Johnson as President of Basketball Operations.

Also, LA has to win out and get help from other teams to lose to make the playoffs. This is most likely not going to happen.

The Clippers usually make the playoffs and can’t advance deep. This rivalry is intense and once teams both make the playoffs that would be a series to watch.

Both teams are on their way to developing their franchise and making moves for the future and present
