    they lost because lamar odom could'nt make layups, couldn't stay next to a player who was making 3's constantly, not dribbling the ball to other side in time, having a low IQ of basketball.etc we seriously need to trade lamar odom and other D players

    The Clippers are never going to be the kings of LA. They might be better than the Lakers, but never the kings of LA. The clips are 7 hall of famers and 14 championships behind the Lakers.

    They lost because the Clippers are a better team. Obviously trading is going to have to wait a while now, but yes, the Clippers are currently the Kings of LA.

    The Lakers are terrible in back to back games this season. The only player who's able to handle them is Kobe Bryant. Last night the Lakers fell apart after the Clippers went on a 24-9 run late in the third quarter.

    Lamar Odom had 1 point / 0 assists at the half. With Odom missing, and the rest of the Lakers not able to score, Kobe had to keep them in the game. At halftime Kobe was 8-16 from the field the rest of the team 4-19. The Lakers don't have the balance and talent to take games off.

    Smush Parker is a joke of a point guard. He walked the ball up the court and was whistled for an 8-second violation. He got called for palming the ball and he traveled after he hesitated on a pass. Then lost the ball trying to call time out after he crossed mid court. One of those mistakes in a game is bad enough, let alone doing all four in one game.

    OG15 is right, the Clippers are simply the better team. Elton Brand is their constant double-double machine. Plus they have other players who can step up on offense, Cat Mobley, Cassell, and Radmonivic.

    I thought PJax rotations were crazy last night as well. Brian Cook didn't get off the bench until late in the second quarter. I'm not sure what that was about.

    The Clippers might have a better team, but that does not make them the KINGs of LA. Winning Regular season games is fun and all but until they win a few championships then that might be something people can argue about.

    This is the first time in the Clippers history they've had a 4 game lead on the Lakers. That should put some perspective on things.
