are you accusing the NBA of being a business? I thought it was a public trust.

Several groups with desire to purchase Clippers are already stepping forward, with a bidding war expected to exceed $1 billion for Clippers.

oh all of a sudden Adam Silver remembers the previous allegations about Sterling

Matt Armstrong, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 18:30 (ten years ago) link

I like the way Silver is carrying himself here, seems like not such a bad guy, although he probably is a bad guy given that he's the commissioner of the NBA

Doritos Loco Parentis (Hurting 2), Tuesday, 29 April 2014 18:31 (ten years ago) link

must be, no way hes just another falible person like the rest of us, *sniff* too bad he doesnt have moral x-ray vision like message board posters

oh wow, he just basically made it sound like the forced sale was already all but a done deal -- he said he "fully expects" to get the support he needs to remove him, didn't even leave the possibility open.

Banned for lyfe is some sweet smackdown but sadly that probably means 2-5 years in this case

Though as we've noted these hate fueled ultrarich dudes always seem to live to 105

There was one part where he was talking about the tape and he goes "I've known Donald Sterling for 20 years" and I'm like fuck no dude do not do the "shocked" song and dance, and then he goes "and I thought it was probably him."

I don't know the name Adam Silver, goon

Knicks owner James Dolan applauds the decision, says "we as a league must stand together in condemning this ignorance."

damn, that clippers.com site!
NBA decided to come hard with this.
Can't even be cynical about it: good for the league.

Which I take to means he's talked to all the owners and at least 75% said they'd vote to oust Sterling.

Any cynical thought that pops into my head about this is tempered by "it wasn't that long ago that they wouldn't have even done something like this cynically"

On ownership super majority needed to vote Sterling out, one Board of Governor tells Yahoo: "Adam has the votes - all of them, I believe."
