I’m genuinely interested. No shade to the clippers at all. But are clippers fans mainly LA transplants?
I’ve always wondered how can someone in LA be a clippers fan instead of a Laker fan. Can one of you brehs explain this to me?

But how can it be a bandwagon in ya own city tho?
That’s literally your team. And they played in the same arena too.

Clippers tickets were so much cheaper, a person might’ve hated Kobe, they might be from San Diego or transplants, they hate Laker fans, or the Clippers had a player they liked

I like clowning the Clippers as much as anyone. But I can’t deny their fan base has grown a lot. Growing up in the 80’s and 90’s and being an adult in the 00’s I met more Blazer, GS, Suns, and Kings fans than I did the Clippers

Everyone doesn't root for frontrunners/marquee franchises or it could be a personal attachment.

Same reason someone can be a Brooklyn Nets fan instead of a Knicks fan

I would like to know why someone signed off on LA having TWO basketball teams.
Seems almost as dumb as a city having two football teams

There was an old head who said that in the 1970’s and early 1980’s when he was growing up you could basically get tickets for free and he used that advantage to watch when his favorite players came to play the clippers.
He just ended up being a clippers fan

I wonder the same thing, and I'm a fan of the baseball equivalent of the Clippers (The Mets)

Enough people to support them
I mean LA even has two hockey teams, pretty much. Two baseball, basketball, football and hockey teams.
New York pretty much has/had that too with the Devils playing in East Rutherford for so long.
