Once the Lakers are good again, ballmer will use his Microsoft money to move the team to Seattle. Clippers can't financially compete with a good Lakers team

Can't compete financially with the richest owner in the league? Stop posting

Ballmer is probably the richest owner of any pro franchise in North America, if not the world. He's up about 7 billion on Allen from a quick check.

ballmer should just go crazy and field an all star squad. 12 man roster full of max contract players.

Ballmer can financially compete, but if the Lakers are good, they will get all the fans

Ballmer should take his team to Seattle...deep down, thats what he wants to do

They have the great majority of the fans now. That hasn't changed. LA fans are fickle and only like to support winners for the most part. A good Clippers team will continue to sell out Staples no matter how good the Lakers become.

And this is why if the Rams suck and the Chargers are good that the Chargers will have larger crowds. For this exact reason. It is a shame, but I'll take it. It's better than getting outnumbered by KC Queefs fans at qualcomm.

Bro, I've wanted Beal for awhile, but I don't think Washington lets him go tbh.
Whiteside is a for real possibility. A chance to be THE GUY and the next really good Laker big man, he could take that pitch with some younger up and coming talent.

Word. You guys aren't that far behind. If the Lakers ends up with Simmons or Ingram plus that cap space, y'all can go back to the playoff picture real soon.


NBA needs the Lakers tbh, the West playoff picture isn't just the same without you guys.
