This is insane. I used to work in an arena and we had to do this maybe 4 times a year and it would be some of our longest nights. I couldn’t imagine doing this 15 to 17 times a year. Respect to these guys.
What happens if Lakers and Clippers are in a western conference 7 games playoff. A player says "we lost the game because they had home court advantage!" lol!!!
TA 90 then it would make sense, usually if you go to a lakers vs Clippers game the team which is at home has homecourt advantage and true crowd in their favor...
TDT True, I know about having 90% plus tickets being sold to the home team but I am talking about those players that say the rim and court is different/unfamiliar!
Kyle Overstreet pretty dope idea. I was also wondering what they will do with the tshirt colors come playoff time. If they are playing each other, you can’t just force clippers fan to wear purple and gold just because it is the Lakers “homecourt” :p
I think he meant the LA Kings, which is an NHL team. They use Staples Center too. I don't know how they manage 3 teams, 2 different sports, and overlapping schedules, it's insane.
I worked there for 2 years, It was definitely a fun experience. But, man oh man when those weekend double and triple headers came around that was no joke. Switch from Lakers to kings then to clippers in one day. I slept there a few weekends good to see some of the guys still there. Got to experience The Kings win the cup while I was there, that was freaking awsome. First time I met Floyd too didn't realize how short he was though
I do think they could and probably will be the 2 best teams in the west. But knowing lebron and kawhi. They dont go all out in regular season. This could be a 2cnd round match up
Thank you for uploading this, been wondering of this arena for my whole life. I thought there was 2courts in L.A. switching that fast is so good. Well done guys goodjob
The Kings use the same stadium as well. So that's how they switch the teams around. This is mind blowing. Even the Detroit Pistons and Red Wings share the Little Caesars Arena, and the Pistons and Lions shared the old Pontiac Silverdome and one time the b-ball game was postponed on account of rain when the roof collapsed.
That may be a super comment but the Floppers should find their own Arena Staples Center and LA belongs to the Lakers them fuckin Floppers belong in San Diego
It depends on the home team. Remember that the season ticket seats are only reserved for their holders. The season ticket holders for the away team would not have a seat.
This job is very underrated and people don't realize how much work goes into this kind of field! I did this work when I was in college at a college Arena! The Arena just hosted College Basketball, Concerts, Fairs, and shows. The setups and court placements were different! Even though I moved on from the College Arena after being there for 7 years during College and after as a part timer, I'm happy to say I do this work Full Time Now in a Convention Center. It is different but it's the same kind of work behind closed doors!
2019-2020 season lakers and clippers might face each other in the western conference finals.. 7 gams series... those workers must be happy to work overtime.
MrKingLani well that isn’t likely to happen this year. It would be a true nightmare scenario though. They’d have to have a game every night with some basketball/hockey same days.
To anyone commenting that it would be extremely difficult to change if the LA teams met each other in the playoffs. You have to understand that the staff working there are extremely efficient and hard working. They can literally change the floor in a matter of hours. So although it would be slightly annoying to change the floor, they'd be more than comfortable changing it on a daily basis (even a few hours for a matter of fact) 💪
The Kings are playing right now, too. They doing Thursday Clippers, Friday Kings, Saturday Both Clippers then Lakers, Sunday Kings Again. Finally Lakers again on Monday. Crazy scheduling due to all 3 teams being lower seeded team.
Gerwin Eric Ironically, before the Clippers were the LA Clippers, they were the San Diego Clippers (from 1979-84). But before they were in San Diego, the franchised originated as the Buffalo Braves.
The Lakers need to build a new version of the forum in Inglewood, that would be dope. The old forum was so iconic and captured so much of what the Lakers stood for. Glamorous and a real show.
That’s awesome he’s been there since ground break. My big sister & friends went to a concert month after I’m opening wknd the week after the big earthquake in the Twentynine Palms. The Kings to Lakers conversion is something to see. (:
IMHO, The Clippers should have moved permanently to Anaheim. The Honda Center's owners want a team, and they can get out of the Lakers' shadows down there, plus when the played occasional games down in Anaheim, they drew better than they did at The Sports Arena (they discontinued the practice after Staples opened, why, I don't know).
@IrishAmericaYT in the movie theaters when I see assholes leaving candy, popcorn, and shit on the floor I tell them to pick it up or they're not leaving the theater.
When the season started I thought that the Clippers would be soo good considering they have Paul George, Kawhi Leonard, Lou Williams, and Harrell but no man, Kawhi doesn't even play back to back games, and I don't even know why, and I was wrong, the Clippers are way worse than I thought.
They should have have a half lakers half clippers court if they face each other in the playoffs, it would look amazing and the diversity in the crowd would set the game.
When I was little I saw a Lakers game then two hours later I saw the clippers and I remembered seeing the Staples center logo them saying to myself wtf they play in the same arena

As someone who works at a smaller center that does this it really is cool to see it done on a larger scale.
you guys can try to build a new center instead of dealing with conversion costs and time.
correct!
Remzi Pınar do you know how much will cost for a new center? 😓
Remzi Pınar there’s 3 teams that I know of that use this arena so it won’t be as affective.

It’s cheaper to convert it
