I thought Simmons has been a Clippers fan for some time now

No, it's the Clip Show!

He's actually a diehard Celtics fan

He got Clipper tickets because he lives in L.A.

i think its ok to follow a 2nd team , especiallly if you dont live near the first one.

i mean i love the clippers, but i used to live about 3 miles from oracle arena, and the golden state warriors filled my void of downtrodden local franchise with insanely loyal fans while i lived up there.

of course every time the clips came to town i was in the stands in clipper gear being booed. you just have to know who your wife is and who your mistress is haha.

I've seen bitter ass Bill at seat selection day for season ticket holders since 2004 or 5

Fact: Bill doesn’t like the Clippers. He likes basketball and doesn’t want to spend his money on the Lakers season tickets. Motherfucker bleeds Celtic green. He can care less about the Clippers, He’ll say they’re his second favorite team because he’s vicariously invested.

He likes the clippers

he is constantly talking about them in his podcasts and he had them winning 50 this year. They are definitely his second favorite team but he definitely is at least somewhat invested in the team.

i dont think he hates the clippers. but he definitely wouldn’t want to give money to the lakres being a celtics fan.

he’s definitely a basketball fan, and you’ve seen videos of him cheering for crazy blake dunks (like that dunk that he did the video pod cast with blake about how bad he applauded).

but im sure the clippres would be his 2nd favorite team by now or at the very least the team he follows the 2nd most. i mean the guy made elgin baylor hate him. he’s at least someone who follows the team with interest.
