This isn’t necessarily a criticism of Chase Center or Intuit Dome, but the past few years there has been a ton of complaints about the Warriors moving to SF’s new arena, starting from ticket prices and circulating around home crowd, fan experiences and who the team is catered to, etc. There are obviously a lot of good things with the project itself, since the team is now playing in a much nicer location, and the privately financed stadium has helped redeveloping the entire Mission Bay into a brand new neighborhood.

In the same right, would the Clippers moving from Downtown to Intuit essentially cause the same problems? How are they managing to have the same crowd energy heading into next season?

Bonus: Why doesn’t Golden 1 Center have the same issue being a relatively new arena?

    Not sure who’s gonna be paying for those new box seats to see an injured Kawhi. If it wasn’t for Balmer’s Microsoft money the Clippers would be in Vegas by now
