Not only regular Lakers fans get hyped with the incredible win the Lakers got over the Clippers, finally breaking the long winning streak the Clips had on the Lakershow

It was long due for the Los Angeles Lakers to get a good victory over the Clippers, even when it wasn't a real battle for LA as the purple and gold have historically been the superior franchise as the Clippers are more like the uncomfortable little neighbor.

The Lakers have won the 17th NBA championship title while the Clippers are still pursuing their first title. To make things more exciting, James Harden was just signed by the Clippers, and even when he didn't make his debut, he was present at the Crypto.com Arena.

The game was looking to be completely dominated by the LA Clippers after Kawhi Leonard had an impressive performance in the first half and his team was leading by 13 points, but the Lakers turned the game around and won it.

The showtime era Lakers legend Magic Johnson became all hyped for it as he wanted LeBron James and Anthony Davis to step up and they did: "On a night the Lakers’ two superstars had to be special, they were dynamic! LeBron James led the team with 35 points and 12 rebounds, and Anthony Davis added 27 points and 10 rebounds."

The other Lakers players Magic got excited about

“They got help with 27 points from D’Angelo Russell and 15 points from Austin Reaves. Christian Wood had a big contribution off the bench with a 10-point, 11-rebound double-double.” Wrote Magic Johnson about the other Lakers he was excited about in the win over the Clippers.
