What did he buy the team for? Under 50 million?
Anyway will be a big Capital Gains hit.

More than twice what anyone thought the property was worth.
This is a transparent $billion BRIBE to make this all go away and keep people from looking too closely at the other scum bag owners.

Consequences of Ballmer buying the Clippers:
- The return of "Clippy" as the team's new mascot
- Every other season, the team will be completely lousy; on the alternating seasons that will range from acceptable to very good
- Uniforms, logos, rosters, play style, and team strategy will dramatically change every few seasons for no discernible reason whatsoever
- Team deficiencies will be blamed on the need to "upgrade" playing facilities to newer "hardware"
- Despite being declared "closed", practice session information will be readily available to anyone who does any digging.
Anyone else want to chime in?

He’s getting $1.4 billion more than the estimated worth by Forbes. What kind of lesson is this for all the other racists?

Apparently after he made all the statements in private that started this.

What happened to HopeRah buying the team? I thought it had to be a non-cracker team owner?

Shelley Sterling has done very well for herself, and so has Donald, who was born in poverty in a nasty neighborhood in East LA. I do not think Donald has lost a significant number of his marbles, but whatever.
He is smart enough to play dumb right now. “Cagey” is a quality that’s probably very common in billionaires.

Wait when he become mentally ill? I wouldn't think you could have a court declare someone mentally incompetent without extensive evidence documenting it. I wonder if Sterling's wife and kids have been working on declaring the old man batty for some time now, and the chance of him gumming up the works on their $2 billion payday just escalated the issue.

2 Billion!!
That'll buy several whores a lotta bling!!
