"STERLING BANNED FOR LIFE!"
Tue Apr-29-14 01:26 PM by J_Sun

  

          

Way to lay down the hammer Commissioner Silver.

$2.5 mil fine and asking the board of governors to force the sell of the team.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Green Mile is a movie where the magical black man wrongly dies and the white man who let it happen lives forever.

Apr 29th 2014

He spends more than $2.5M on pussy every year.
Apr 29th 2014
5
thats prolly the light bill for 1 of his cribs annually. nm
Apr 29th 2014
8
No jokes. This could be true. N/M
Apr 29th 2014
11
that's the maximum that Silver was allowed to fine him.
Apr 29th 2014
47
he's 80...he ain't got much life left
Apr 29th 2014
6
Dude owns life half of Bev Hills and the Wessside of LA...him good
Apr 29th 2014
9
      Not to mention the $750 million he is going to get in a sale
Apr 29th 2014
78
2.5M is .17% of 1.6B.
Apr 29th 2014
7
Well, that's the max that he could fine him.
Apr 29th 2014
10
The sale is not forced. It is SUGGESTED that the owners vote him out.
Apr 29th 2014
17
The owners can force the sell.
Apr 29th 2014
21
      If he wants to be an ass he can fight it legally.
Apr 29th 2014
33
           He can't really fight them forcing the sale.
Apr 29th 2014
49
                Sale could drag out til 2017
Apr 29th 2014
62
                     Of course he's going to make money on it.
Apr 29th 2014

Apr 29th 2014
124
      bye Vet...
Apr 29th 2014
142
It's gonna sell for 750 or more
Apr 29th 2014
59
you can't fine him more than what the rules allow for
Apr 29th 2014
13
still hinges on whether or not they force him to sell
Apr 29th 2014
12
comish did what he could
Apr 29th 2014
15
      from the questions asked after
Apr 29th 2014
80
He'll emerge with a mere billion dollar profit on his investment.
Apr 29th 2014
14
NBA teams are a KNOWN money pit, fuck is yall taking about 1B profit?
Apr 29th 2014
20
      Do you know how much he bought that team for?
Apr 29th 2014
26
      Do you know the difference between valuation and profit?
Apr 29th 2014
36
           do you know the difference between $12.5 mill and $700 mill?
Apr 29th 2014
46
           She think the Clips are ONLY worth 575 tho
Apr 29th 2014
51
           I know the difference because *I* said $700m
Apr 29th 2014
53
           Multiple groups are already preparing billion dollar offers.
Apr 29th 2014
68
           they had a $15 million operating profit last year
Apr 29th 2014
82
           LMAOOOOOOOO
Apr 29th 2014
103
           But that's how much he will sell it for
Apr 30th 2014
211
      youre wrong. lol.
Apr 29th 2014
31
      not from basketball-related profits.
Apr 29th 2014
39
      you gonna just toss the goal posts like that, hunh?
Apr 29th 2014
45
           No, he stayed in business because he could leverage the team
Apr 29th 2014
61
           The Clippers are different from the Griz and the Wiz. Big time.
Apr 29th 2014
64
           Naw. He ran that team like a business. Taking profits instead of wins
Apr 29th 2014
66
           Makes sense. Plantation mentality. Nobody getting rich but massa..
Apr 29th 2014
76
           You sure up in the CLIPPERS previous finances. They file 10k?

Apr 29th 2014
32
      The team will sell for more than a billion dollars.
Apr 29th 2014
40
      my estimate is in the 800-900 range
Apr 29th 2014
96
           I think your estimate is 100-200 mil short.

In response to Reply # 1


  

          

22 of the teams would have to vote to force the sell. I'm sure the vote would be "private" but no team owner is gonna want his fans to think he wasn't behind that shit. Plus Adam Silver is a new commissioner... you don't want to piss off the brand new commish.

and he's not gonna make a billion off the sale of the team. $700m max... if that. the valuation is only at $575m and it's a forced sell. plus, I wonder how far in the red the team is anyway.

He could sale the team to his grandkids or his foundation.
Or just let his wife have it.
If he died next week, his wife would get the team anyway.

It's not forced yet, but it will be.

And any new owner has to be approved, so good luck with him selling it to his wife/kids.

They can force the sale, but can they force a price on him?

He can say value is $900M
NBA says $600M

In response to Reply # 33


  

          

They can't force a price on him, but any sell has to be league-approved so they have some ability to push him there.

But anyone buying the team is going to have deep pockets. It's not going to be a billion though.

longer he drag it out,
more the franchise is worth
specially if he can wait until new NBA TV contract is inked
that adds GREAT value to what he can get out the deal

gentlemens rules, no money involved.

If i win which i will...you have to post twice a day in GD once saying how awesome *I* am (like...in the title.)

and the other time saying how lame YOU are.

for one week. ie seven days.

If Sterling gets lowballed he can sue the NBA against antitrust laws...

They can't force him to sell for cheap.


He just bailed out the NBA when they were selling the Pelicans and made their team offer sweeter after the Chris Paul trade.


They not gonna force him out without a fight.

In response to Reply # 10


  

          

the fact that it's a forced sale doesn't mean what it would if it were someone's foreclosed house or something.

billionaires are lined up around the block to try and own an NBA team, as evidenced by the two billionaires that just paid 535 mil to own a basketball team in MILWAUKEE.

Please believe that when you account for the facts that they play in the second largest market in the country, have a very talented team in contention for a title (unlike the Bucks who had the worst record in the league), and the fact that he HAS to sell (as opposed to just using it as a stunt to get a stadium deal or whatever), and there will be a bidding war for the rights to take the team off his hands.

I wouldn't be surprised if it goes for close to a billion.

you try to go above and beyond it is almost useless
again he acted within the rights allowed by the bylaws

again he pretty much took what he could from him...
if a owner of a business in a community got involved in something like this you can't force him to see his/her business

the bigger issue is will his FAMILY be able to keep ownership.

$575 is the valuation... that's not actually how much the team makes every year.

The Wizards are worth $485M and they lose $20m a year.

Plus, you don't know how leveraged that team is. It may sell for $700m and he may have $250m of debt he has to settle in order for the sell to go through.

82. "they had a $15 million operating profit last year"
In response to Reply # 53


  

          

http://www.forbes.com/pictures/mli45eheim/13-los-angeles-clippers/

The Milwaukee Bucks were valued at $405 mil, and sold for $535 mil because of the demand from people who want to be NBA owners. That's 30% above market value for the worst team in the league in an undesireable city (from a media perspective).

The Clippers were valued at $575 million. If they got the same 30% premium, it would be $750 mil, and that's not counting the extra premium of being in the #2 market. Teams in the top 3 markets don't come up for sale every day.

That team probably JUST turned profitable when they got Blake Griffin.

He's been making money from his other businesses, but not the Clippers.

According to Forbes, they've turned a profit every year since... well, as far back as I can easily find online, so a decade or so.

LA is a basketball town. The Clippers are not a money pit the way many other teams are. Hence the massive rise in valuation over the last three decades.

When everyone thought the Clips were a joke, Sterling was raking in the profits. Just laughing while other teams were paying out the ass for players and winning championships

Every year, but you lose 2k every year maintaining it are you going to sell if you enjoy spending the summers there and you have no use for the money?

Or you going to look at 30k extra a year (when you sell) as a sound investment for 2k a year?

Since people are talking about how the Clippers do and have been turning annual profit. They are a major market team run with a tight fist-- they make money.

And this team will sell for a billion dollars.

If he bought it for $17 million and sells it for $700 million (seems like a low ball number right now), he made $683 million on the deal. Add on top of that whatever operating profits the team brought to him over the course of 30 years, I think it would be reasonable to say that he has made close to a billion dollars off this team

Ban means he can't have shit to do with a team in any official capacity... can't go to any games, can't go to and practices, can't make any business or player decisions, can't have any activity with the NBA.

He can still own the team until the owners vote to force him to sell the team... which is going to happen.

Banned for life is some serious shit... I know the fine is lint in his wallet but that Ban is the real deal.

Dude can't come to any of his teams games and the chances of 22 owners voting him out is pretty high if they vote while this is still front page.

More than likely his wife will take over.

it's a little different with Paterno. That dude lived to coach PSU. That's it, that's all...

Sterling has other shit going on to occupy his time. But I agree... if he makes this his life mission to fight the ban he will die in a few years.

I think it's much harder to kill a racist... they tend to live forever.

But the type of rich people that buy NBA teams are past worrying just about money. It's about a legacy for people like him. And he's lost that for sure. That probly matters more to him than money anyways at this point. I'm sure he's in the dumps and feeling hella lonely. Glad for it too.

But like I said....rich people who do things like buy NBA teams are not just about money. They're about being seen....being known....being in the rich clique. If not, they'd just hole up with their money quietly. He's about a public life. And everything's he's ever accomplished will be overshadowed by this. He knows that. Google his name in 50 years and this will be the first thing referenced. That probably kills him inside. His grandkids will be shy about acknowledging him as family for the rest of their lives.

@desusnice: Donald Sterling gonna be aight. He gonna pay that fine and have a new 38 year old 21 year old in no time.

@desusnice: Magic predicted either the Clippers or Warriors will lead 3-2 after tomorrow's game & maybe Donald was right not to want him there

He'd be easy to find.

We could all take turns punching him in his fat little belly and spitting on him or slapping him in the face.

If everyone brought their own knife from home and maybe if one of you guys brought like a spiked bat or something, we could probably bump into him before the week is over and we could just beat the remaining life out of him and cut non-threatening parts of him off you know, like ears, fingers, his dick.

Then we could douse him in gasoline or something and watch him burn real nice.

Anyone in?

I mean, this isn't harsh enough right? He's still rich, right? I'm just saying we could either sit here and complain since of the majority of us ignored his institutionalized and systematic economic racial discrimination and bigotry that he's "still rich" or we can get out here and really finish this thing, right!

Who's in!

Hell naw! Isiah may have made some stupid ass comments. But he balled hard for the Pistons. And I'm a ride or die pistons fan and he was just pissy, he didn't mean that shit.

Sterling, meant that shit!

..more importantly, how will the players, nbpa, and fans react should the vote to force a sale fail?

should the vote pass, does he hand over the team to a family member?

..stranger things have happened

again: even with a vote to force the sale, will the nbpa (and the general public) be satisfied if sterling is simply resigned to selling MAJORITY ownership (remaining a minority) OR handing the team to a family member?

He invested in the team and his investment paid off. Good for him. I would hope if i invested in something in 1982 it would be worth considerably more 32 years later.

Dont give a fuck about that.

Fact is who ever gets ownership next will be getting a commodity who value will continue to grow and he wont be privy to any of that. Once sponsorship started pulling out i knew that was the death knell. Once the business model is affected by BIG money, things would have to change.

So with that said, i applaud the Commissioner for doing everything in his power under the bylaws he could do. He risked losing the respect of the players if he didnt come through and would have marred his legacy only 3 months in and he knew that. He had to drop the hammer.

On a lighter note, how many NBA owners side pieces got dropped in the past hour? Ms. Stiviano effed it up for all of them. Their wives will be having the best week ever this week.

these specific statements and the history behind them.

Hopefully Cuban and the other owners have enough brains to understand that while kicking him out for his private statements in his own home, reprehensible though they might be, is a bad move for several reasons, kicking his ass to the curb for the sum total history these statements lend considerable weight and credibility to is a FANTASTIC move. Further, I hope they all understand the sort of catastrophic financial damage his continued presence will bring their way if they don’t vote him out.

It might not have been just to force him out based on the freedom of speech we all cherish in this country, but it’s certainly just to look at his overall body of well documented race-related offenses and kick him to the curb.

I’m ecstatic that Silver put that element into play, because that’s the piece this entire thing will hinge on of this piece of shit decides to fight it. If that happens I’m sure the NBA will make a powerful case in court illustrating how his presence is so significant a financial liability that there’s no other choice but to give him the boot.

In response to Reply # 129
Tue Apr-29-14 11:44 PM by Jon

          

then it begs the question...why now? Why were they cool with all the actual material deeds he committed that weren't just private thoughts and bedroom convos?

I still have a serious queeziness with the idea that a real executable punitive measure, like a fine, can actually be enforced in response to this. It means we can legislate and litigate people's minds, and police dinner tables.

Of course if ever this became a thing, it would first crack in via a case with so much universal visceral repulsion that people would be willing to accept this as a necessary and good scope.

IMO, they shouldn't have fined him, and instead just indefinitely delete the team from the league after the season with the clause that as soon as ownership changes, the Clippers can return. He'd sell immediately, but that wouldn't satisfy the public's emotional desire for punishment.

also, if like many say, hidden bigotry is worse than open bigotry, and open dialogue is important...how does this angle do anything but make bigoted and ignorant views recede further into the shadows?

This was a completely private action. The NBA is a private organization with it's own rules. This was purely a business decision.

With fans & even players threatening to boycott, they had to get rid of him. He was about to cost them a ton of money. He violated the NBA bylaws so the NBA can kick him out of their club. The First Amendment does not apply to this case at all. It's a private issue.

In response to Reply # 177
Wed Apr-30-14 04:20 PM by Jon

          

Like you said, that's their organization. They have every right to ban whomever they want. Absolutely. Also, I fully understand why they'd want him out of their club, which is why I suggested a way to get him out (remove the Clippers, which he owns, from the NBA until ownership changes, forcing him to sell).

But actually taking money or assets from someone which that person owns, over private thoughts and lover convos... I don't see how that isn't a legal action. How is it enforced? This is somebody's actual property, correct? Maybe I just don't understand how sports leagues work, because in real life, my colleagues can't (as of yet) force me to give them my money or belongings because they're disgusted with my privately expressed views on, say, military ass-kissing.

the various lawsuits, etc.

The problem here is the fact that people were offended, but nobody was shocked it came from Sterling.

While of course the media sandstorm forced the NBA's hand, the idea they want to impress (and will have to impress) is his previous behavior bought them to this point, which is a good sell since his had a few discrimination lawsuits land at his feet.

In response to Reply # 200


          

i'm having a hard time internally buying that this isn't happening as a direct result of everyone hearing the private thoughts of a man

and that's what concerns me going forward.

okay, so they bring in other stuff to give the case some backbone, but then is that how things happen down the line? They didn't take action when he did those deeds. The reason they're doing this is social pressure emanating from the recordings. So, i mean, can't that blueprint be repeated now for all kinds of things? I mean, this isn't him speaking in private about his evil plans or deeds or something that would directly implicate him in an actual offense of some law or company rule, he's simply vocalizing his own fucked up opinions of people (or issues, places, things, religions, institutions, variables).

I'm hearing you, i just can't kick the idea that this in some way cracks open the door for some real invasive thought-police things down the line

It feels wrong

Not sure why we're all celebrating. All I see is a bunch of exploited black workers who were powerless to advocate for themselves. Then Silver gets to emerge from this situation as the Great Emancipator. Where's the dignity in that?

I'll celebrate when Black athletes start taking steps to start their own leagues.

pretty sure all investments have to be approved by the league.

i'll let the broader implications work themselves out. for now i am just glad to finally be rid of a terrible owner. many, many years too late though, as he's already profited and his organization has resembled a professional one in recent years.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

In response to Reply # 173


          

some celebs like angelina jolie wear the same thing every day black grey etc and dress frumpy so they're never worth photographers stalking. if the rags won't pay money b/c the photos are boring or she's wearing the same thing she's been wearing in every papparazzi shot for five years, the value of the photos go down.

a face of this woman would be worth more and make it more worthwhile for the paps to stalk her. they'll have to use the instagram ones or what's out there and not pay the photogs for visor shots. once they have one or two they're good.

Dude did not have an unconditional absolute ownership right in the clippers. He had a franchise ownership which is subject to, among other things, being able to be removed with 75% of the vote of the other owners.

This ain't about property rights being taking away by a PC totalitarian state, it's about contract law.

Slate be trolling.

In response to Reply # 183


  

          

Because the language is fairly specific regarding a team owner who cannot meet his financial obligations and hinges on a single, particularly vague clause that may or may not help or hinder him if he chooses to fight it. If he fights, he may have just enough wiggle room in there to tie this thing up indefinitely. There's a solid article on this, and it presents a few things Sterling may be able to use in his defense.

At any rate I still think the overall negative impact his continued presence as owner will prove sufficient cause in court to force him out, as we have already witnessed sponsors moving out and players threatening boycotts.

..he keeps ownership, big whoop!

Based on some of what Silver said, they could let guys on the Clippers out if they don't want to play under their contract - essentially giving all on there a early free agency ticket. Sounds like something especially the big stars on there CP3 & Blake would push for if Sterling holds onto that team fighting the league on it.

Furthermore, sponsors & possible epic fallout with the fan base would more than reverse the slight shift the Clips was enjoying with the Lakers LA base leaning towards the Clips.

Even if they weren't trying to force him out, it would be in his best interest to sell now anyways because the value would plummit. Right now he can capitalize on a hot market and a good team, but a year or two from now it would be a wasteland.

i thought it was more like owning a car, but that makes sense then (even though i still felt like they could have easily gotten around that too, by simply shutting his car out of the league until sold, but cool)

but fines? did he not own his money? Fines is my biggest issue personally.

In response to Reply # 0


          

Well his heirs could lose a lot. Around $200 million or so.


http://www.vox.com/2014/4/30/5668194/the-200-million-reason-donald-sterling-doesnt-want-to-sell-the

The $200 million reason Donald Sterling doesn't want to sell the Clippers — capital gains taxes

NBA Commissioner Adam Silver has made it clear that he wants to pressure or even force LA Clippers owner Donald Sterling into selling the team. This would result in hundreds of millions of dollars in profit for Sterling, so as far as punishments go the financial bite here is not large. But Sterling is also 80 years old, meaning that one way or another he's probably not going to be around for very long. And thanks to the magic of tax policy, it actually makes an enormous difference to his heirs whether or not he sells the team.

Due to taxes, there's about $200 million dollars at stake in whether Sterling sells the team before or after he dies

Consider two different possible scenarios.

In one scenario, Sterling sells the Clippers and then dies, bequeathing $1 billion in cash to his children. In that case, first he pays capital gains tax on his enormously profitable investment in the Clippers. Then when he dies, he pays estate tax.

In the other scenario, Sterling dies and bequeathes the team to his children who then sell it, earning themselves $1 billion in cash. In that case, there would be an estate tax bill and then his kids would be hit with a capital gains tax bill. So it all evens out.

Except it doesn't! That's thanks to §1014 of the Internal Revenue Code ("basis of property acquired from a decedent"), known to tax junkies as the stepped-up basis rule. The way this works is that if you sell an asset you inherited, the basis for calculating your investment profits is the fair market price of the asset at the time you inherited it rather than the price the person you inherited it from originally paid. Which is to say that if you inherit the Clippers and then sell the team right away, you pay no capital gains tax.

Since the top federal capital gains tax rate is 23.8 percent and Sterling's capital gains on the Clippers could easily be $900 million or more this means there's about $200 million dollars at stake in whether he sells the team before or after he dies. That means that if Silver and the NBA do succeed in forcing him to sell the penalty will actually be quite large — the only problem is that it's more a penalty on his heirs than on him.

In response to Reply # 0
Wed Apr-30-14 06:07 PM by supremacy

          

The Clipper players and coaches are so weak and mentally enslaved that they felt they had to wait for "Massa" (NBA Commissioner Silver) to do something against Clipper owner Sterling before they were willing to do something for themselves.

In addition, by choosing to continue to play and/or coach until Sterling is officially forced to sell the team, they're still generating revenue for him.

This is another reason (in addition to one's in my previous email) they should have boycotted immediately and continue to boycott until the team is officially no longer owned by Sterling.

Also, Doc Rivers, his coaching staff, and the Clipper players should have never agreed to coach nor play for Sterling if they had prior knowledge about his history of discrimination before agreeing to come to the team.

Furthermore,the N.A.A.C.P. should've been dismantled more than 20 years ago for never being relevant nor making any progressive positive moves to help move society forward. The executives of that west coast chapter who were intending to give Sterling an award need to be killed.

and lastly, V. Stiviano (Sterlings' slut) is such a dispicable human being with no respect for herself that she would consentually have sex with someone repeatedly who doesn't like nor respect her nor her family for money and status. This is the ultimate definition of "gold-digging ho".

When Sterling, all of the current Clippers' players and coaches, the executives of the N.A.A.C.P. and V. Stiviano die their tombstones should say:

"Here rest a Bitch with no dignity"

In response to Reply # 0


          

Because the Clippers IS/WAS NOT his main source of income.The team is/was just something he just LOVED having.He loved being apart of the NBA,he loved being a "owner". Which is why he never sold the team in all these years no matter how bad it was. He wanted to die having that team is HIS name.

That's why him being banned & cut off from the team & NBA hurts more than any financial lost or gain. Think about it, if the guy REALLY cared about the all the money he'll be making from it, they would NOT have to FORCE him to sale the team.

Hope that makes sense
