The Clippers were born as the Buffalo Braves in 1970. In 1978 they moved to San Diego until they finally settled in Los Angeles for the 1984 season. They currently play in the Pacific Division of the Western Conference and share the Staples Center with the Los Angeles Lakers. The Clippers have only made the playoffs seven times in their history.
Last season they failed to make the playoffs, and they are not on pace for post-season play for 2009. Zach Randolph and Al Thornton serve as the teams leaders in points. The young squad will hopefully take steps to improve in order for them to start winning again like they did in 2006.
