Especially not to the extent of the NBA, commissioner's response as well as rapid advertiser dropping.
Not really... I don't agree with his comments and believe he is indeed a closet racist. He was a dumbass to say them and should have known he was being set up.
He has the right to say whatever he feels, just as the sponsors and others have the right to react however they see fit.
Having said that, this is a very slippery slope. If the NBA is going to punish him, instead of letting the free market play out (sponsors pull and him be forced to sell the team on his own), will the NBA punish ALL of the players who make racist/sexist/homophobic comments?
