In the city of angels, the Lakers and the Clippers are two completely separate entities in the realm of NBA success and some Clippers fans contend that their team is cursed.
Recently after a Lakers win against the Clip Show, Lakers coach Phil Jackson was asked a question regarding the karma of the Los Angeles Clippers in response to Blake Griffin's season ending injury. This is the response he gave to the media:
“I’m of that generation that believed in karma. If you do a good mitzvah, maybe you can eliminate some of those things. Do you think that Sterling’s done enough mitzvahs to eliminate some of those? How about all those other incidents that we have on file?”The shot at Sterling is coming off the back of a recently settled lawsuit regarding housing discrimination in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Koreatown. The one thing that you have to commend about Phil is his ability to speak his mind regardless of the topic and his ability to find humor in anything.
However, if I had ten NBA world championship rings, I think I could talk a little smack about anyone in the association.
