Franchise history The Buffalo Braves played their first NBA season in 1970. They moved to San Diego, California for the 1977-78 season, and became the San Diego Clippers. In 1984, the Clippers moved to Los Angeles, California, playing in the LA Sports Arena while the Lakers, with a better reputation, continued to play at the Great Western Forum in Inglewood. From 1994 - 1998, they played in the Arrowhead Pond of Anaheim, sharing the venue with a plethora of other water-themed teams including the Mighty Ducks (ice hockey) and the Splash (soccer). However, in 1999, the Clippers and Lakers both started to play in the Staples Center. This has been a benefit somehow, but the Clippers didn't perform well in their first season at the Staples Center, especially when compared to the Lakers, who won the championship.
