My god, I want to slap the shite out of him for turning down 2 fricking billion dollars just to go after something that's worth way less.
I guess this is what dementia leads you to do.

Y'all are just going to get your hearts broken again when he's back to cutting the deal sometime next week.

He doesn't own the team, the trust does. And the trust deemed him mentally unfit to conduct business. So he can't sue the NBA. OK, he can, you always can, but he has no standing. He has to sue the trust first to even be able to sue the NBA. Then, the trust has already indemnified the NBA from suit. So even if he wins, he's back to suing the trust again.
Yeah man I bet those lawyers he pays 3000 an hour haven't thought of this.

Baloo is a lawyer
And the article says the same thing he just said
And the article says the same thing he just said
quote:
Shelly Sterling indemnified the NBA from damages in future lawsuits from her estranged husband as part of the sale agreement with the league. She negotiated the sale as the sole trustee of the Sterling family trust, which owns LA Clippers LLC, after two neurologists had declared Donald Sterling unable to conduct his own business and legal affairs. The provisions of the family trust did not require a court order. To challenge her authority to conduct the sale, Donald Sterling would have to challenge her in California probate court, according to sources with knowledge of the situation.

You win every thread with the same cut and paste posts.

I bet they're thinking about the hours more than any of this.

he's right, but he's going in the wrong direction
from what i've read, sterling is going to sue the NBA for a separate action...like libel
he's also reportedly going to sue the trust or appeal the ruling that removed him from power...whatever that procedure is

2 separate neurologists have recorded their findings that he is mentally unfit
He can file but it isn't going anywhere. Balmer would not have had his name publicly attached unless it was a done deal. This is just DS grandstanding
This is probably for leverage in his divorce and nothing more

How many times has he changed his mind now?

Nasty trust litigation coming up if DS really wants to challenge this. Husband v. Wife

Pride and dementia are quite a combination.
He's clearly off his rocker. Businessmen that have amassed the type of fortune that he has don't make a habit of flip flopping.

Oh people are still on this sterling thing?
I thought that was last month's big deal.

fricking lawyers just trying to milk him

at his level it is not about money, it is about legacy:
So he is threatening the League because he is mad they are forcing him to sell and still banning him for life.
quote:
Sterling recently saw a draft of a statement from the league which he thought absolved him of the penalties, but a person familiar with the NBA's position said the statement, which was not released to the public, offered no such relief.
"In terms of saying something in a draft press release that indicated they would be dismissing the lifetime ban and the fine, that is not true at all," said the person, who spoke anonymously because he was not authorized to speak publicly about the matter. "That doesn't mean that [Sterling] wouldn't have read something like that into it.
"But if they interpreted it that way that is wrong and there is no thought of lifting the lifetime ban or the fine being rescinded."

Sterling pulling the "deal" is on the NBA this time. He was ready and willing to sell the team with one stipulation...lift the lifetime ban he recieved from the NBA. I think that was pretty reasonable offer. All he wants is the oppurtunity to sit in a suite and be able to watch an NBA game in the future and the NBA said no. That is a dumb move by the NBA!! They got what they wanted...for him to sell the team. Let the man live out his dementia years in peace. The NBA is being the judge, jury and executioner waaaaaay overboard in this matter. They are now going to have to fight this in court and for this circus to be drug out. Talk about forgive and forget. The NBA is displaying equally offensive hatred by their actions. Just lift the lifetime ban and he goes away.
