re: Sterling Loses Case, Clippers Will Be Sold for $2B

The case had nothing to do with his remarks that were recorded. It only focused on the rules of the trust.

Sterling made his own bed when he put ownership of the team in the family trust.

I don't see how political ideology factors in to this

This.

Don't let your feelings about how the NBA handled it cloud your judgment of the legitimacy of the court proceedings. He'd have more of a case if he hadn't placed the team in a trust, from which Shelly had him removed by legal means.

Given what happened with his constant waffling on the sale and his bizarre behavior in court, it's obvious he's slipping into the grips of dementia (which is why he was having his conversations recorded).

Say what you want about the entire ordeal, but Sterling screwed himself before he ever had that conversation with V. Stiviano.
