A perfect opportunity to "strongly encourage" the sale of the team to the Seattle group. LA will always be the Lakers town.
Wait, he said that he doesnt want his bought girlfriend to be going to games with black people aside. That`s all ?

Have they said anything on TNT during Spurs/Mavs?
Just turned it on
Mark Jackson should send the Clippas a thank you card. s are real fickle when it comes to race and religion. Those losers will hold it against Sterling even though he pays them millions they'll harbor what he said and blame him for not playing to their potential.. I wish there was a law against censorship. That's the world we should live in. Besides... why are s, s, and jews always getting pissy over people not liking them.
That would be hilarious.Imagine how awkward the trophy ceremony would be if we did end up winning it all this year, with the old got on the podium with Silver
Chris Paul responds to Donald Sterling:
“On behalf of the National Basketball Players Association, this is a very serious issue which we will address aggressively," Paul, the president of the NBA Players Association, said in a statement. "We have asked Mayor Kevin Johnson to expand his responsibilities with the NBPA, to determine our response and our next steps. As players, we owe it to our teams and our fans to keep our focus on our game, the playoffs, and a drive to the Finals.”
Rachel Nichols ✔ @Rachel__Nichols Follow New NBA Commissioner Adam Silver will give a press conference tonight before Thunder/Grizzlies. Will he suspend Clips owner Donald Sterling?

Mayor Kevin Johnson—originally assigned to search for a new Executive Director—will spearhead the NBPA's efforts concerning Sterling. He addressed the process as well:
The reported comments made by Clippers owner Donald Sterling are reprehensible and unacceptable. The National Basketball Players Association must and will play a very active role in determining how this issue is addressed. There needs to be an immediate investigation and if the reports are true, there needs to be strong and swift action taken. I have spoken with NBPA President Chris Paul and will be leading the NBPA in addressing the implications of this serious matter.

No im listening to it now and even though Im a racist, hes being pretty hardcore. To be fair, these are his private thoughts. He's telling his biracial girlfriend he doesnt like minorities especially blacks and mexicans.

Elgin Baylor on Sterlings racism:
[...] During this same period, players Sam Cassell, Elton Brand and Corey Maggette complained to me that DONALD STERLING would bring women into the locker room after games, while the players were showering, and make comments such as, 'Look at those beautiful black bodies.' I brought this to Sterling's attention, but he continued to bring women into the locker room."
He also accused Sterling of firing him "on the basis of age and race."
Baylor, who was a Clippers executive from 1986 to 2008, alleges that Sterling was unwilling to "fairly compensate African-American players" and as a result, the team "lost a lot of good talent."
