OT: crazy day at staples center sunday

[Silk City]

The Kings game may push the Clippers game scheduled afterwards to Monday if it goes to OT, and to top it off there is a major cycling race ending in front of the building, closing down many area roads. It's going to be a zoo all day with potentially 20,000 fans coming out and 20,000 more in a small time window, with thousands of others involved in the cycling event as participants/spectators.

This hockey to basketball conversion stuff is interesting, particularly since we have had some UConn/AHL games on the same day in Hartford (although those have been the other way around, which is apparently much easier). I guess it's a good problem to have but should be a wild day in downtown LA.

Fittingly, dramatic storyline made for Hollywood.
