The building should’ve been buzzing before this one. With tons of media on hand for a nationally televised game between last season’s regular season MVP and NBA Finals MVP, Staples Center was supposed to be poppin’ for one of the season’s most eagerly anticipated matchups. Instead, a soldout crowd of 19,068 in downtown Los Angeles were […]
