LA Clippers vs. Phoenix Suns

You found this. Be the first one here.

Half past one on a Sunday in April is the best hour the schedule has to offer and it appears perhaps twice a year. You arrive in daylight, you leave in daylight, and the entire evening afterwards is still yours - which in the first week of April, with the weather finally cooperating, is worth more than the ticket. Phoenix are a division opponent, so there will almost certainly be seeding attached by now, and a building doing arithmetic in the afternoon sun is a specific and rather wonderful thing. Afternoon crowds skew younger and louder. Make a day of it rather than a night of it, and walk out into an Inglewood afternoon with the whole weekend still in front of you instead of behind. The drive home at four on a Sunday afternoon is its own small argument for the whole idea, and it is the easiest hour of the week to leave Inglewood in.
