None of the above

No real fansIt has been said that Laker fans have jumped on the bandwagon because of Kobe , Dwight and Steve.

Yep, that’s just about everything that everyone hates about Lakers fans. They don’t really care about the game, it’s more about being seen and they jump on and off the Lakers bandwagon whenever it suits them. Nailed it.http://blogs.thescore.com/tbj/2011/03/17/lakers-fans-named-worst-in-nba/

LOYALTY AT IT’S FINESTTherefore, fans are not just watching an average everyday basketball game, but rather watching history being made at the highest level of play possible, as the LA Clippers fight their way from the trenches of basketball mediocrity towards overshadowing the team that has always felt entitled to their position as the dominant team of Los Angeles.

Memorable Closing

• Though the Clippers were founded later than the well known Lakers, the Clippers are starting to make a name for themselves.
