The rivalry between the Los Angeles Lakers and the LA Clippers has evolved significantly over the years, especially with the arrival of stars like Blake Griffin for the Clippers and Chris Paul in 2011. Initially, the Lakers dominated the matchup, but the Clippers’ rise in the 2010s, fueled by key acquisitions and strong performances, changed the dynamic. Although the Clippers struggled in the early years of their Los Angeles tenure, their newfound competitiveness in recent seasons has made these games increasingly high-profile.
