Dodgers haven't won the series since '88. Your staple team is regressing and doesn't have a good outlook for the years to come (Lakers), the Clippers are still the Clippers, and I couldn't give a shit less about Hockey.
Plus, you don't even have a football team.. unless you consider the Raiders, who have been terrible.
I have always been a bit jealous of Boston though.
Clippers and Lakers both made the semis (disappointing for Lakers, great step for Clippers) then you have the Dodgers one of the best teams in baseball and now the Kings are about to win the Stanley Cup after not being a playoff team last year. To live and die in LA .
LA is a legit sports town for sure, it doesn't have quite the history and traditional as some of the east coast teams (especially baseball) but they definitely have championships to go with it.
The raiders won a couple of titles in LA. Kings, Dodgers all have titles in LA. USC, UCLA are two of the most dominant college programs of all time and then of course you have the Lakers.
Heck yeah!! Man I have always been jealous of the LA sports scene. Back the late 70s and all of the 80s, you had the Rams kicking butt, the Dodgers with my favorite player Ron Cey doing his thing, and then the Lakers with Magic, Kareem, Norm, and all of the Laker greats; yeah I am jealous of the LA sports. We just gotta get football back in LA.
I love the state of LA sports right now. Clippers may be historically bad but they are no doubt a contender right now and this will be the only time in sports history where two teams who share a building have a shot. Then we had the Kings win the cup, Galaxy win their title a couple years ago. I'm just happy with what we got in LA. No need for people to make this about the Clippers specifically when I mentioned all the teams doing something worth noting right now.
I think a lot of people are VERY jealous of what the Clippers have right now and it's a big reason they are arguably the most hated team in the NBA right now next to the Heat and Lakers. People like to blame it on the flopping but it can't be just that or the Spurs would be the most hated.
I think it has to do with the fact that people are mad they can't bag on the Clippers anymore and get taken seriously. The Clippers are likely a top 5 team in the NBA this year and that's no laughing matter.
Nah, Memphis is much better then LAC. They should have won last year. Giving up a 27 point lead and another 18 point lead in two consecutive games is once in a blue moon luck.
Sorry Clipperfan, OKC, LAL, and Memphis are the top dogs in the West. Then the Spurs, Mavs and Clippers are fighting for that middle tier position. Atleast I believe so.

I really respect how good Memphis is but this is obviously just a ploy to rile me up because it's beyond stupid . You failed to mention the Clippers having their 5 best players injured including Billups out entire series and Butler out two games. Or the fact that CP3's injury just so happened to come the game following a 3-1 Clippers lead and it obviously affected him greatly. Clippers were going to wrap it up in 5 most likely if CP3 was healthy and that's not accounting for the other injuries.
Bottom line is the Clippers are already the better team (you can say that when you win a series) and had a much better offseason than the Grizzlies. As for growth from within that ncr has talked about here... the Clippers younger group of Griffin, Jordan and Bledsoe will keep improving.
Last season I was saying the Clippers would eliminate the Grizzlies two months before the season ended and people thought I was crazy. Now the depleted Clippers win a series and get much better in the offseason and it's "Memphis is STILL better"??? Keyword still lmao.
