LaLa Land!
- Raptors embark on a 4 game West coast trip that sees them playing the Warriors, Blazers and Nuggets, but not before a stop in Los Angeles to match up against the Clippers.
- After the Clippers lost Chris Paul to Houston and Blake Griffin to Detroit, DeAndre Jordan signed with Dallas in the off season. The Blake Griffin trade saw Tobias Harris and Boban Marjonovic (former Spur and teammate of Kawhi and Danny). Harris has been playing exceptionally well for LA and Lou Williams (former Raptor) is having another 6th man of the year calibre season too
- Kawhi Leonard is listed as questionable tonight with a bruised hip. Conspiracy theorists will suggest that he is being kept from playing at Staples Centre as not to get too keen on playing there, thus potentially signing in LA in the offseason. It's likely a precautionary thing as this is the first game of a back to back and he hasn't played in both nights of one yet

X - "Los Angeles"
One of the most legendary and influential punk bands to come out of LA in the 1970's and 80's. They were also featured heavily in the first part of the documentary called The Decline Of The Western Civilization which highlights the LA punk and rock scene of the early 80s

Original Clippers
Apparently you need to be a brave soul with a strong constitution to stomach this 15% Malt Beer. Think Colt 45 with a hint of nailpolish
Raptors 1st in East 21-7! Clippers 4th in the West 17-9!
