~:[CH13 - Day 296]:~ The Wall
A towering wall of 51 rows sat behind the basket as KD missed two free throws. The crowd went wild as that meant, we got a free Chick-fil-A sandwich. The new arena opened up and my family and I went. Being at the top of the wall meant being far away from the court, or so I thought. The distance to the court was minimal, as we were towering high above it, creating an angle I couldn't imagine. From the players, it was an intimidating factor that added a new element to the homecourt advantage for the Clippers. Sadly, despite the fanfare of the day, we ended up falling short, which left a bit of sadness on an overall good evening. To be apart of history is pretty cool considering that our family has been apart of the Clippers fandom for years. We transitioned from the Sports Arena to the Staples Center / Crypto.com Arena and then finally to the Intuit Dome. By rule, only Clippers fans are allowed in the Wall and it made me realize something. Sometimes when we're spread out, we're not as powerful as we could be, but when we unify together and join forces, it makes us a lot more formidable than we once were. Together, we unified this evening and created an intimidating force that could serve as a factor in future games and I hope that together, we can begin creating a new chapter in Clippers basketball, together.
