Who cares? The Los Angeles Lakers are playing Friday night and the Los Angeles Clippers are not!

The Los Angeles Lakers fanbase will be riding this wave for quite a while. LeBron James has inserted himself right back at the top of the NBA as the league’s undisputed best player. Kawhi Leonard’s epic collapse with his explanation describing the team’s troubles made it worse.

This will be the statement for Lakers fans anytime Kawhi Leonard is even brought up in the same sentence.

Imagine if LeBron James in a Game 7 goes 1-for-11 in the 4th Quarter, scores 2 points in the second half, 0 in the 4th Quarter, and blames the loss on the team’s IQ?

But in the end, did the Los Angeles Lakers really care?

"... We’re not focused on the Clippers, and we never really were."
