    Donald Sterling forced out over wayyyyy less, if Cuban doesn't get forced out that's some bull .
    Not really. The Stiviano tape was just the last straw for the NBA after decades of embarrassing conduct and record-setting housing discrimination fines.

    And it's also a misconception that Sterling was "forced out." All the NBA did was ban him from associating with the team. The reason why the Clippers ended up being sold is because Sterling had been diagnosed with dementia, which enabled his wife to take control of the family trust and sell the team herself.

    And when the L bans you from access to your property, you're pretty much being forced out.

    Oh, there's no doubt the league wanted the team to be sold. Just pointing out that the narrative on the Sterling thing doesn't match the facts of what actually happened.

    And when the L bans you from access to your property, you're pretty much being forced out.
    I disagree. The league certainly made it difficult and awkward for Sterling to keep owning the team, but Sterling was still stubborn and delusional. He still wouldn't have sold the team voluntarily even with the ban. It took his wife stepping in for the Clippers to be sold. So the league really didn't force him out.

    I actually like Mark ..he actually gives a about the,tram he owns.
    what I dont like is ...
    1. His ego dismantling a le team taking away their shot to defend the crown. It was part pussy and part ego they acted like they were the Lakers after one le ...
    2. His penis envy of the Lakers
    3. His dumbass choosing shark tank over his team at times ...missing key FA pitches.
    4. had a legit top 25 player and only one ring to show
    5. letting Nash go to soon...

    but overall a great owner facing a storm
    Dude had a big 3: Nash, Finley, and Dirk. Imagine the les they could have won if they kept that core together. Nash was a two time MVP shortly after he left.

    Rachel gave him a soft opening.
    but also asked the real question we wanted to know.
    How did he explain being so hands-on and not know anything about what was going on?

    His answer makes sense, but hard to reconcile.
    He kept a CEO on that he never vetted himself.

    This is really weak on Silver's part, but he's a progressive darling, so Media will give him a free pass anyway.

    Donald Sterling was banned from the league for making a racist comment over the phone yet Cuban gets a pass?

    I'll don't know how charity tax write offs work, can anyone shed light on how they work. I'm curious to see if this is nothing more than an empty gesture from a rich asshole or an actual punishment for the said rich asshole.
