In the NBA league, generally a city will only have one home team team that belongs to them, but Los Angeles is an exception. Since the Clippers moved to Los Angeles from San Diego in 1984, there are two NBA teams here. . But compared with the glorious tradition of the Lakers, the Clippers have always been unable to establish their own team culture and community culture here. In addition, they have made no achievements in this nearly 40 years (the 2020-2021 season team has entered the Western Conference finals for the first time), and the Clippers cannot get any respect here.
260 million, congratulations to Los Angeles! The local tyrant boss announced the decision to chase the Lakers, they deserve respect.
However, after nearly 40 years of silence in Los Angeles, the Clippers finally ushered in a local boss who was forced to sell due to inappropriate comments from Sterling Clippers, Steve Ballmer into the home team. The boss's previous stock has appreciated by US$20.1 billion, and he has successfully become the ninth boss in the world with a net worth of more than 100 billion. Calculated according to the market value of each NBA team, Ballmer has enough wealth to buy the entire NBA league.
Ballmer has previously decided to move the Clippers away from Staples Center, and they have begun to build their own new arena in Inglewood, on the edge of Los Angeles.
The groundbreaking ceremony for the Clippers’ new arena has been successfully concluded some time ago. If everything goes well, the Clippers’ new arena will gradually be completed in 2024 and they can be in the 2024-2025 season. Completely move away from Staples Center.
After the construction of the new arena started, the Clippers owner made a key decision, which was supported by the outside world.In an interview, Ballmer talked about the team's new home stadium, Intuit Dome, will bring Inglewood (the new home stadium) an annual economic activity of 260 million US dollars, while also providing 7,000 full-time and part-time jobs. In addition, the Clippers also promised to provide the community with $100 million in community benefits.
260 million US dollars, this is a very terrifying figure, and it is not the economic activity income that increased here when the Clippers moved in, it will increase so much income every year, and The Clippers’ new arena will also bring 7,000 jobs around the city of Englewood, solving the food and clothing problem of a large number of people. In addition, there is another $100 million for community welfare. The Clippers have made a bloody contribution to the establishment of their own team culture and community culture, and this is only a fraction of the Clippers owner Ballmer.
Ballmer said: "There are a lot of people here who can become Clippers or Lakers fans. But we want to tell everyone who we are. I think there are a lot of people in Los Angeles who define themselves as weak or struggling. These are almost two Los Angeles. There are not only shows and the film industry here, but our fans are millers."
In terms of team history, the Clippers can be said to be far behind the Lakers. A hundred and eight thousand miles apart. But now they have their own luxurious arena, which the Lakers don't have. The Lakers boss Jenny Buss According to previous statistics, her net worth is about 3.3 billion U.S. dollars, which is too far away from Ballmer's 100 billion.
The Clippers bosses said in an interview before the groundbreaking ceremony of the team's new arena that they would win an NBA championship trophy before moving away from Staples. That is, they need to create team history in the next three seasons and get the championship trophy. In the new season, Kawhi Leonard's comeback prospects are slim, they do not have much prospects for winning, so winning in the 2022-2023 and 2023-2024 seasons became the last of the Clippers to win the cup at Staples. Chance.
The purpose of the Clippers leaving Staples is very simple. They want to leave the Lakers' rule and leave their shadows. Since the home court is at Staples Center, the Clippers will have two fewer home courts than other teams throughout the season. When their home game is against the Lakers, the Clippers not only do not get the support of fans, but even on this field, They are not necessarily more familiar with the basket here than the Lakers. The right time and the place are not the same, which also makes the team suffer a dumb loss every season. In addition, you can refer to the playoffs of the 2020-2021 season. Even though the Lakers ranked seventh in the Western Conference in the regular season, the Clippers, which had a healthy lineup at the time, tried their best to avoid the Lakers in the playoffs as much as possible. Otherwise, they may face all the time. In the "away game" situation,
and the Clippers also missed the best chance of chasing the Lakers. After the Lakers won the 2009-2010 season, they entered and Kobe was injured and retired. During this dark period, the Clippers have experienced the air-to-air city period led by Chris Paul and the current era of kajiao. The Clippers have been the favorites in the past few years, but they have never made any achievements.
