Well... I don't know who has home court advantage technically, but I can promise you that the Clippers are rooting for the Lakers to win. They'd be home for the whole series no matter what happens.

To be honest, even though both teams play at the Staples Center, I never thought I'd see the day. Congratulations to the Clippers for doing the damn thing.

Yeah, what would the series be called?

Mets/Yankees is called the Subway Series.
Cubs/White Sox is called the El Train Series.
Clippers/Lakers?

How annoying would it be for the Staples center crew to have to change the decals on the floor all the time? Hah! It's not like it matters for home court advantage. Who has richer fans, Clipper fans or Laker fans? That'll be who has home court advantage for all the games.

I imagine it goes to the season ticket holders of the specific teams..

I would assume the Clippers.

They both have their home team lockers. However, the Clippers signed on to play at Staples after construction was already underway. So their locker room isn't quite as nice as the Lakers'.

Even though Clippers have homecourt, it probably favors the Lakers. A lot of Laker fans will be buying tickets to the clipper 'home' games. Even though I'm a life long Laker fan, I'll have to predict that Clippers wins in 7. Clippers got a very solid team with good big men, unlike the crappy SUNS with their wannabe mvp.

hmm, so will there be 'BEAT LA' chants??? that'll be awesome.
