But I'm just wondering if they'd be the Anaheim Clippers or Los Angeles Clippers of Anaheim, haha... just like the Angels. But that would make the Orange Crush (where the 5-57-22 freeways meet) even more of a shit show.I like Los Angeles Clippers of Anaheimlol I never understood that. Angels: California Angels, Anahiem Angels, now Los Angeles Angels of Anahiem. Like wtf is the rational behind that?

Nothing is divided, there are way more Dodger fans in LA than Angel fans
I have been thinking about it for a while, and after much deliberation, I think it's time for the Lakers to let Dwight Howard walk. Chris Paul can resign with the Clippers, Dwight can go to the Clippers, the Clippers can win for the next 3-5 years and it's all good. I think that mortgaging the long term Laker legacy of Kobe Bryant and his loyalty and the fans loyalty to him might be too much to gamble, and I think we keep Pau and Kobe together with Artest. But Dwight and CP3 are both 27 and 28 years old. They only have 4-5 good years left and to try and sign them and keep Kobe would be too much and it's time to let the dream of that future go and start to look at a better, longer future.What makes the Kobe draft pick in 1996 brilliant is that the Lakers set a cornerstone of their franchise for the next 17-18 years. Hell Kobe can play another 2-3 years as just a shooter on the outside like Ray Allen did. That's an amazing trade to get a very young talent that carried the franchise longer than anyone else. When looking at the future, I wanted Howard or Bynum to carry the Lakers to the future, but that's a very short term future plan. The Lakers need to look long term future, so one who is 19-23. I don't know who yet, but it might be time for the Lakers to try and figure out how to get draft picks. The Lakers are not a franchise that builds through the draft often, but it might be time for a long, 10 year plan to win titles for a long time. Just a thought.

lol you think anyone really wants to live out in houston? or dallas? dwight isnt going anywhere.
Just think-once upon a time, at beginning of the season they were predicting winning over 70 games, and challenging for an NBA championship. They went 0-8 for the preseason and every one panicked lol later the lakers would find that they would go out in the playoffs just like they went out in the preseason with a DONUT 0!!!!!
