Shout out to Steve Ballmer for caring about the fans, the players, and the city. Glad to see someone in his position care so much about the details and experience and not make it only about being a business.
Steve Ballmer is one of the main reasons why I started to like the Clippers. It's nice to see an owner actually care about his franchise and show passion for it.
Steve seems like a stand up guy. The fact he's even thinking of the lower entry ticket holders says a lot about what kind of product he's supplying. Insightful dude
He truly is. He was head of Microsoft during whole Red Ring of Death for the 360. And to fix the issues and replace customer's 360s that were affected was going to cost the company $1.5 Billion and he signed off on it. There's not a lot of companies that would do that back then and/or now.
Yeah. "stand up". But if you aren't cheering hard enough he won't even allow you to be in his "standing room only" section... (8:24) lol. He is a billionaire, he cares about the fans only as much as they elevate his team and make him more money.
sucks to be the dumbass who went to the Clippers game, sat in the Clippers cheering section and decided not to be a fan. Steve sounds like a real problematic kind of guy for literally holding people accountable. Something not found in 2023 society. @@williestyle35
It is really nice to see an owner invested like this. Not just financially, but knowing every detail up to whether locker rooms have space for long coats hangers because nba players tend to be flashy. Say whatever you want to say, but at least the guy is putting in the work and time.
I like this guy. He’s like an excited kid 😂 I love to see people who are genuinely happy about life. I know he’s a billionaire but we can’t say this is who he is
If you just heard of him you gotta watch the Clippers games. He goes to almost all of them and goes WILD. Cheers and yells until his whole head turns red its hilarious. 😂🤣 Just youtube Steve Ballmer highlights or something I'm sure there are compilation videos people have made lol
He also 'wrote' a $400 million check to buy the Forum (Lakers previous landmark home) just to remove any possible litigation delaying construction of the Intuit Dome.
The Clippers will always have a future because of their owner, Steve Ballmer is a fantastic owner. Fans don't care if they're team is always winning, they just want to know that their team is always trying to win. Ballmer is a true NBA fan, as long as he owns the Clippers, they'll always have something to look forward too.
Never was a clippers fan… but Steve Ballmer is the best owner in sports. He’s not shy to try and put forth the best show for the fans and seems like a jovial guy who truly loves NBA basketball. Rooting for the team long term as some of these ideas will one day hopefully enhance the experience for every day Joe’s to enjoy the game.
This is the start of something big for the NBA for sure. I love how he's taken inspiration from football stadiums around Europe because we all know the atmosphere is greater. Ive been to Nba games and football matches in Europe and its day and night. This will 100% be the start of something big for the Nba. Hopefully other teams follow his path as soon as possible
As a Lakers fan I can appreciate Steve's effort to make it a pure basketball arena. At Crypto, it's hard for fans to be intimate since it's also a hockey arena so the fans aren'tas close to the action. Wish the Lakers would do more things with their fans in mind. Unfortunately they cater more towards the wealthy.
@@splashnskillz37 Not going to happen. Since buying the franchise, the Clippers have doubled in value, gone 17th to 7th most valuable NBA franchise, 3rd best win-loss in NBA over the past decade (Lakers 25th). Went from losing 90% of games to the Lakers to beating them 84%, 11-0 over the past 3 years.
@@danielt6689 crypt renovations woll happen, Clippers leaving to intuit dome open the oportunity and AEG announced they would renovate the arena, it has nothing to do with the Clippers track record, and despite all the stats you said they didn't win a chip so far while the lakers did by the way, but that's beside the point i was talking about
This is my first time hearing Steve Ballmer’s voice when it wasn’t hoarse from yelling lol. This place definitely sounds like a great place to watch basketball.
As a Clippers fan, every since he bought the team I feel like the future is always bright. We might’ve underachieved in the past but I’ll always stay loyal to the soil.
The Clippers underachieved because for 32 years they were controlled by the worst owner in the history of professional sports. Now, they have one of the best.
Right?! Most owners use their team to earn more money. Steve is literally a super Fan with a "cap" turned off, and gets to create his wildest sports ownership fan dreams come true.
Unless it's against the warriors, I wanna see success for the clippers, just because of this guy. He really oversaw every aspect of this arena, and designed it especially well for the fans. Looks like it will be a fun sporting experience. Can't wait to see the end result 🙏🏽
You can see why this guy rose to the top of a massive successful company. Boundless positive energy and attention to detail for the product he is providing.
Haven’t had an owner like this since Jerry Buss first bought the Lakers. In terms of making going to the game an experience without taking attention away from the game
I root for Balmer. He's doing everything in his power to do things authentically right. Solid human and can't help but root for anything this guy touches.
Funny part is that I used to hangout in that area on 102nd specifically where they are building the new clippers arena. Memories, oh man Inglewood has changed since the old days
I think Steve Bowman just set the standards for fanfare for teams nobody never cared about the fans. I think the stadium is strictly for fans. Thank you Steve Ballmer
@@3meeds275 no it's season tickets here bro! Ballmer is just doing something similar but different and calling it a season pass. Was just being funny wasnt actually trying to correct you or anything 🤣🙏
@@MultiBluedog123 What about the Lakers? In the 60s and 70s the Lakers were known for choking, not championships. They went 0-8 in the finals before finally winning their first championship in LA. Ownership has everything to do with winning. Every Laker championship in the last 65 years except for 2 was because of Jerry Buss. Clippers had Donald Sterling, the worst owner in professional sports, for over 30 years. Now, they have arguably the best.
Now the Lakers have to build a better Arena in Inglewood or Downtown now. No way they can allow the Clippers to have a better venue than them. The Champs of L.A.
LOL… it may be so. But, back in the 80s, I remember corporate behemoth IBM once saying the same thing about a tiny - 30 people - company run by two wiz kids - Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer. IBM controlled 70% of the computer market. That fledgling company… Microsoft. Some people - mustchow3771 - only look at the past to predict the future.
Laker fans are so fucking corny when it comes too the clipper\lakers rivalry clippers always give the Lakers that fucking work in the season. And the best shit they can come up with is how many championships they won 😂
I'm a Laker fan but I give my props to Steve Ballmer and the Clippers. The arena is gonna be insane. Glad they gonna be moving out but gotta respect the design and specs of the Intuit Arena
Escaping the Lakers' shadow while staying in Los Angeles is never going to happen. But good luck with the new arena. At the very least, the two teams finally have their own home courts.
Steve is absolutely one of the coolest owners in the NBA. He's probably the richest by far, and yet he's down to earth and being incredibly accessible to the players and fans.
You guys aren’t realizing that LA is the second biggest market in the NBA which is why there will always be 2 teams in that city. Even if the Clippers were to relocate then NBA would just put another team in LA so that’s why it’s pointless for them to leave.
Faker fans are just pissed they have to play in the shadow of the LA Kings hockey Cryto dome. Not to mention Jenny Buss is a crappy owner and Anthony Davis is half man, half season kind of guy he gets hurt more than Kwahi Leonard.
You can tell that THIS owner really cares about Clippers fans and making it a basketball-centered experience. I read about even more cool things that this building will have that is unique to them. I look forward to going to the Intuit Dome once it opens!
As a Heat Fan I’m looking forward to hearing very loud Let’s Go Heat Chants in that Beautiful Brand New Arena hopefully we can take over that place too The Lakers Should take notes and eventually build an New Arena Similar to the Clippers in Santa Monica

It's good to have an owner that cares more about the fan experience than the money. Balmer is building the best stadium that money can buy.
This was a great conversation to be apart of. He seems like an awesome guy
Ballmer reminds me of John C Reillys portrayal of Jerry Buss in Winning Time. The irony 😂
I just thought that
First thing I thought of, he has the same voice of John C O'Reilly lol
Way nicer guy though
