I may be wrong, but LA being in the playoffs/finals and winning it probably made the city a shitload of money, which in turn probably made the state a shitload of money. So perhaps using a bit of that to celebrate it may not be that bad. Yea though, not a time to spend needlessly, when the state is supposedly on the verge of bankruptcy.
