Battered and bruised after a humbling defeat to the Houston Rockets on Wednesday, the Los Angeles Clippers can look to the other side of the court Friday night to see a team that has been feeling the same thing much longer. In their final matchup this season against their Staples Center roommates, the Clippers will play host to the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday night with a chance to restore some pride. The Clippers are coming off a 135-103 dismantling by the Rockets in a game that was not as close as the lopsided score would indicate.
