Draymond Green once said “It’s no secret: They don’t like us. We don’t like them.” He was referring to the Los Angeles Clippers. Over the seasons, both the Golden State Warriors and the Clippers made some changes and the teams have flourished. So far, the Warriors have claimed an NBA championship while the Clippers have made it to the second round.

Playing in the same division, these two teams have faced off numerous times with some memorable battles. From Stephen Curry dribbling through three Clipper defenders and putting CP3 on his bottom to Draymond’s tongue antics, there’s no love lost between the two organizations. The Clippers will visit the Oracle Arena on Wednesday for their first match up in the 2015-16 NBA season.

My favorite part of the rivalry is when Kent Bazemore and the rest of the bench clowned Blake Griffin for shooting deep, with a DAMN funny reaction. Leading the bench to do it again in a later game with the Clippers, well…that why I miss Kent Bazemore. Glad he left the Lakers, did well with Atlanta last year, and is now a starter.
And thank you Kent Bazemore, for being the ringleader to the funniest bench reaction I’ve ever seen!
