When most people think of LA sports teams they think Kobe Bryant and the Lakers. But this season a new NBA team is looking to be the new Los Angeles household name. The Clippers! The Clippers also share the Staples Center with the Lakers, but have not been as productive as Kobe Bryant and the Lakers. The Clippers over the off season they acquired Chris Paul one of the best and fastest point guards the NBA has to offer. He averaged 9.8 assists, 2.4 steals, and 15.8 points a game before he left his former team the New Orleans Hornets.
By bringing in such an elite player the Clippers fan based increased and was the team to watch. With already have their forward Blake Griffin last years, Rookie of the Year, and dunk contest winner, the Clipper seemed like a very fun and exciting team. And they haven't disappointed. Winning more than 3 quarters of their games.
With all the pre hype surrounding the Clippers, they took away some of the much older Lakers hype. And now since the Clippers are playing better than the Lakers who really dominants LA?

Two Championships in the Big Apple?
The New York Giants are Superbowl champions after beating the Patriots this 2011-2012 season. After New York celebrated its third Lombardi championship, a new piece of metal might be coming to New York. The New York Knicks are fast rising to the NBA's elite team status. With veteran all-stars Amare Stoudemire and Carmelo Anthony, and rising stars Tyson Chandler and Jeremy Lin the look like the team to beat. With the speed and quickness of Jeremy Lin, the power of Tyson Chandler, and the shooting range Melo and Amare provide. They are a force to be reckoned with.
The Knicks are a above .500 win team, but there star power might take them places in the playoffs. More so the NBA Championship. The Knicks might be one of the youngest talents the NBA has to offer so they will make mistakes. But if the ball bounces their way, and if they stay out of penalty and foul trouble. A championship is sure to come. Maybe this season even.

1st Overall?
The NFL Draft is going to be a fun thing to watch this year. The Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck was rumored to go first overall, in the draft. But now a new quarterback Robert Griffin III has challenged the GMs choice of picking luck. Robert Griffin can throw and has Mike Vick speed. Is the type of player Cam Newton was last year. Put your self in the position of the Colts general manager. You have the first pick. Who do you draft. Andrew Luck smart, tall, and a great leader. Or Robert, lightning quick, gunslinger, great on the deep ball. But also if your the Colts GM you ALREADY HAVE AN ELITE QB!!! Peyton Manning is the top of the NFL since 1998. So you could draft another one for the future or you could draft another position. Like the Running Back from Alabama Trent Richardson. Trent is fast, never gives up, and runs with power. Hes not one of the biggest backs but he hs force and speed, which is deadly combination. The Colts dont have strong running game so who knows what there going to do. Work on the future or the present

Slow Wizards
Wizards have lost more than half of their games. Expected to come running out the gates being a powerful young team. Hungry for a wins and a some what elite team in the NBA. But the Wizards having been moving slowish. Not completing plays, not getting the star power they expected out of John Wall, bad coaching jobs already firing one of their head coaches. Everything that can go bad for a team HAS gone bad for the wizards. Injuries are also apart of their problems. The Wizards need to step up there play if the expect to compete with the NBA's elite.
