So - $2 billion dollars eh? Thoughts about Ballmer buying the team for that much? Seems to be a lot of positive buzz about it....

Yes there is a lot of buzz. I assume now they can now move on and win some games. I am not a Clipper fan but I wish them luck. :thumbsup:

The whole debaucle began because that girl recorded Donald Sterling's rants about black people.  But I wish the Clippers luck.  Maybe everything will work out for  the best. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :rainbow: :rose:

$2 billion is probably pocket change to him if he's has over $20 billion in the bank.  He might even move the Clippers to Seattle and bring back the Super Sonics like he tried with the Kings.

There's no way that team is even worth that much! This new owner has money burning in his pocket and he wants a new toy and bragging rights - that's all.

Not only is Sterling a  :turkey:  ... He's also an idiot. He needs to drop the lawsuits and just be happy he got overpaid by a lot for the Clippers.

   NBA already told him the team is not being moved out of the area.  They may get a new place to play, but in the Los Angeles area.  The 2 Billion already made a lot of other teams worth more.  That "girlfriend"  may have thought she was being clever, but she is suddenly having lots of other problems.  I doubt if she has the money to buy out her half of the items she was given, so she may soon be out on the street without any of her fancy cars.   Trying to get more money out of him (greed) seems to have  been her downfall.  Like the dope said, he should have just paid her off like she asked and then this would not have happened.   He was wrong, she would have just kept asking /demanding more.  You have to be doing something to pay the other bills and groceries. and she was doing him!
