LOL Los Angeles Clippers History

The Los Angeles Clippers are a basketball franchise that are contractually obliged to not make it past the second round of the playoffs. Don't believe me ask the 2020 Nuggets.

1971-1978: Beginnings in BuffaLOL

 * The Clippers franchise was actually birthed far away from California, in fact on the opposite side of the County in the city of Buffalo.
 * Much like all expansion teams, they would start mediocre with a 22-60 record, what's even more interesting is they would repeat this record the following season.
 * The Braves were one game worse in the 72-73 season
 * They made the playoffs the following year but lost in the first round to the Celtics
 * The Washington Bullets would take a turn at beating their ass the next year.
 * The 76-77 season was the last of three playoff pursuits for the team in Buffalol
 * Owner Paul Snyder was refusing to sign a new lease for Memorial Auditorium, more on that later
 * This time they made it to the second round but lost to the Celtics, hopefully they can farther than that in the future.

2020: What do you mean we still can't advance?

 * In the COVID-19 shortened season, the Clippers continued to trail behind the Lakers in the West and were expected to meet them in the Conference Finals. What happened instead: They blew a 3-1 lead to the Nuggets in the second round. 
 * This failure of course led to the firing of Doc Rivers, here is a reenactment of what took place in the locker room following the loss.
