With the comments made by Tim Leiweke, president of Anschutz Entertainment Group, which owns and operates Staples Center, it appears very likely that the L.A. Clippers will move to the Pond in Anaheim following this season.

Leiweke stated that the Staples Center makes more from about five concerts than it does over the course of a 41 home-game schedule of the Clippers.

The lease that Donald Sterling holds with the Staples Center runs out after this season, and it is likely that the operators of the Pond would give the Clippers a favorable deal to move down the 5 to Anaheim, particularly with the uncertain status of the Mighty Ducks of the NHL.
