It don't matter. Lakers always find a way to sign stars. Even in those years when Kobe was out with injury and Lakers were at the bottom, the Clippers fanbase didn't look strong at all. They weren't running shyt in LA.
LA Clippers new arena -- **The Intuit Dome**

They didn’t have Leonard back then
They had chris paul and high flying blake griffin to bring more casual fans and it didn't work that well.
Kawhi ain't bringing much to the table by being out several games each year. If he gets them to at least the finals, maybe this will bring some serious attention to their team. But they won't run shyt in LA unless couple championships are won.
of course you have to win at the end of the day, a couple of really bad years for the lakers will defiantly boost them, by how much though?

The "Intoit Dome" sounds really P Diddy like on some gay shyt, this is a franchise level pause

They need a Mack 10 statue out front
Can't wait to hear battle rappers use Intuit Dome in a rhyme scheme 
lol I kinda feel sorry for Ballmer. He's trying to make the Clippers exciting for the fans, but that team is going nowhere.
Majority of championship contenders had at least one important piece who's been with their team since day one. Like Wade in Miami big 3, or Pierce in Celtics big 3, or Kobe in threepeat era, or Curry and Klay in those Warrior championship years.
Clippers have none of that, all their important pieces got traded from elsewhere or signed via free agency. Fans who come to see them don't have that connection like: "here's the guy I watched since day one play for my team and we're gonna win this championship with him and other pieces".
Their best bet was in Blake and CP3 era since they drafted Blake and he was their star. Peg leg, playoff Memphis Bleek and Scam Gawd don't have that connection with Clipper fans. This is the same problem Nets have. A rebranded franchise buying names, but fans can't really relate to them much.
Now imagine Clippers didn't trade Shai. He'd be a guy LA fans could relate to. A star in the making who's been in LA since day one. Finishing 2nd in MVP voting, maybe worth to see what Clippers are trying to build with him. But they traded him, oh well.
