Watching as the Clippers defeated the Lakers for the 13th time in 16 games, and did it under their own roof at Intuit Dome, brought to mind a normally frivolous question.

The Los Angeles Lakers head to down the hall to face the Los Angeles Clippers in a Western Conference matchup that was previously known as 'the Hallway Series' due to these two teams once sharing Staples Center. The Lakers are 21-17, which puts them in sixth place. The Clippers are 23-17, which puts them in fifth place.

Both teams played on the road last week, and Monday marked their first home contests since the Palisades Fire began Tuesday.
