They have 100x that amount and time on their side.
They could probably run him out of money in 20 years or so. Considering that he is 83, and senile, I don't think that matters much to him. On the other hand, those other owners are going to be cutting into their profits and future earnings, and they are all younger, and saner, than he is.
Not if his family has him committed for spending up their trust fund. Money does strange things to people.
I dont have to. You just admitted they have voided contracts. You need to prove they cant do it in this case.
Yes, they voided contracts because players violated the terms of the contract, they have never voided contract because they decided they didn't like the owner. The way it works in the real world is the person making the claim offers the proof, but you really don't care if anyone believes you, all you care about is making things up and posting them.
Show me where it says they cant do it? They have voided contracts before. There is nothing stopping them.

His wife, who happens to be sane, has already said that she will fight the order to sell her half of the team. Why don't you point out the part of the NBA contract that lets them sell the team out from an owner who didn't do a fucking thing?
Not really. They would cooperate with this as long as the players were signed elsewhere. You must be mad or out of your skull.
There aren't enough teams to pick up every single Clippers player without forcing the teams to cut other players. That proves I am the one using my brain, and you are using your racist scumbag lack of a brain.
You forget the NBA can expand 1 additional team to accommodate the players dummy. You are out of your skull like I said.

Yes, they could. That process would take, at a minimum, 5 years, during which time most of those players wold be getting payed squat.

From what I understand her half was not approved. The team is owned by a trust. Get your facts together. Why dont you point out the part where it says the NBA cannot void the contracts since they have already done it before?

You keeping talking about facts, yet you offer none. Where is your proof to back up the bullshit you've been spewing in this thread? You pretend like you know NBA contracts, but in reality you are just making shit up. Prove me wrong by showing PROOF of what you claim.

From what you understand, the NPLA would roll over like dogs to let the NBS screw over their members.
Just to clear up your lack of understanding, Californian is a community property state, which means that any property bought during the marriage belongs to both spouses. In other words, she didn't need a approval to buy anything, it is a matter of law.
And, again, why should I prove something I am not saying? Why does it bother you that I don't believe you? If you are right, prove it, if you can't prove it, shut up.

Actually they could have it done in a month or 2. Sterling doesn't own Staples Center. They could also expand all team rosters just in case it took 5 years at the most like you are wildly hoping.

They have to open the process to bids, examine the bids to make sure they all qualify, approve the winning bid, and then award the franchise to the new owner. It would be up to the new owner if he wants to keep them as the second rate team in La, or move them to another market, which would take time, renegotiating TV contracts, and whatever the Clippers contract is with Staples.
But, sure, they could do that in a month.
As much of a **** as Sterling is, I find it ironic and saddening that people are more outraged by this guy's racist musings than they were by Sandusky fucking little boys.
True story

You cant be this ignorant? The trust that owns the Clippers supercedes community property. You have no clue what you are talking about. dont quit your day job to practice your dime store attorney skills.
It is written very vaguely- which is why it will be litigated. Also, the owners haven't voted yet.....I wonder why? Maybe they don't have the 3/4ths they need?
Either way, I don't care. I am not an NBA fan.
You really think they don't have the 3/4ths vote needed? The NBA wouldn't have done this if they didn't have the votes. Silver most likely spoke with every other owner regarding this before laying down the decision.
Funny how people don't think this billion dollar league that has firms of attornies at their disposal didnt have this mapped out from day 1.

They call that expediting the process. I know you want it to not be so but it would be no problem for the league to accommodate the players on a new team in a pretty rapid manner. Since the Clippers are actually the better team in LA right now you must be one of the fools that like to talk without knowing your facts. Clipper were in the playoffs. Lakers didnt even make it.
The NBA was hoping the media blitz and the pleas from people for him to step down quietly would sway him to just disappear. That isn't going to happen.
The biggest problem for the NBA is that they made it seem the issue was settled, when it clearly isn't even close to being settled. They went with the twitter timeline, less than a week from issue to resolution, and did not realize the real world (and especially the legal world) work far slower.
I also have a stinking suspicion that they do not have the votes among the owners to get rid of him. If they had the votes, they would have held it.
They have the votes, they wouldn't have announced he was losing the team without knowing the votes are there. I believe the other 29 owners all gave their support to the commissioner after he announced Sterling's punishment. Just as Sterling has powerful lawyers working for him, so does the NBA including Adam Silver himself.
Not to mention that collectively they have more money than Sterling as well and Sterling will pay court costs in the end.

What trust are you talking about about? How does the fat that Sterling bout a portion of the trust nullify California state law on community property? Why hasn't any lawyer who isn't as stupid as you unaware of this mystical ability of trusts to nullify state laws?
