James Harden jokes about Steve Ballmer wanting to bring down the Intuit Dome

It was a long time coming but the Los Angeles Clippers finally secured their first win at the Intuit Dome, as they defeated the San Antonio Spurs 113-104 on Monday. Prior to this victory, the Clippers had lost their first three consecutive games at their new $2 billion home arena, which sparked frustration among players and the ownership.

The constant loss even led owner Steve Ballmer, whose net worth stands at $121.4 billion, to even joke about tearing down the Intuit Dome and building a new one due to the rough start. Star player James Harden also questioned whether the arena was cursed.

I thought this s**t was cursed at first. Steve came in here making jokes about it. He thought he was gonna have to tear it down and build a new one. That tells you how much money he got.

James Harden said to the press after the Clippers win

The Clippers’ new home, the Intuit Dome, was supposed to be a fortress, especially with the acclaimed “fan wall.” Although it had not brought about a win, it surely had an effect on opposition players who confessed to the fact.

The LA Clippers finally secured their first win at their new home, Intuit Dome, on Monday night. They overcame a 26-point deficit to defeat the San Antonio Spurs 113-104. The Spurs dominated the first quarter and led 40-14, but the Clippers fought back. The victory marked their largest comeback when trailing at the end of the first quarter.

Under coach Tyronn Lue, the Clippers have developed a reputation for stunning comebacks and last night wasn’t any different as their resilience paid off, as they cut the margin to eight at halftime and four going into the fourth quarter. A decisive 33-9 run in the third and fourth quarters sealed the win.

The Clippers’ victory also made history for the Spurs, who were without veteran coach Gregg Popovich, as it marked their largest blown lead at the end of the first quarter and the fourth-largest by any deficit in franchise history.
