Sterling is preparing to sue the NBA

Donald Sterling is reportedly prepared to sue the NBA in an effort to block fellow owners from forcing him to seel the Clippers. Following commissioner Adam Silver's lifetime ban of Sterling on Tuesday, the NBA Board of Governors is preparing to vote to force Sterling to sell his Clippers franchise. This process led an unnamed NBA executive who is close to Sterling say, ""He is not going to sell the team." The unnamed executive also added that Sterling is prepared to file a lawsuit and potentially tie up the future of the team for years. We should see what Sterling's next move is within the next two weeks as the NBA constitution and bylaws give Silver three days to provide Sterling with charges, Sterling five days to respond to the charges, and the Board of Governors 10 days to vote following Sterling's response. It sounds like this situation is about to get even messier than it already was.

Old rich Jew, therefore by default he is a minority and cannot be racist.

Sterling is setting world records with the amount of fricks he doesn't give.

If this really does go on for years, I wonder how it will affect players and coaches from going/playing for the clips

Let's be honest...some other owners probably want him to win. This precedent is horrible for them.

I like his chances in a collusion case.

This
So I guess it's "If I can't have the team, I might as well bring them down with me"

shite I wouldn't be surprised if the majority of the owners felt this way.
The pressure the league will put on them and the black eye they would receive if they back Sterling changes things, though

Money trumps racism on every level. You offer someone enough money, they'll play for the KKK. Plus it's not like they are going to have to deal with Stirling if it's ruled the NBA can't force him to sell. He's out of day to day operations fuh fuh fuh fuh-life......
Keep in mind, Doc Rivers has admitted he knew about Stirlings past, but chose to ignore it not only because he wanted to "help these guys achieve their goals/win a championship" but they also paid him a boatload of money to do just that. That's why I have really lost some respect for Doc Rivers. He knew the guy was a racist, but he ignored it because he was getting paid bank.
