An NBA team owner may -- or may not -- have made some ignorant remarks.

He is being cyber-lynched.

Meanwhile, where is the diversity in the NBA, which is 90 percent to 95 percent black?

Back in the George Mikan era, the NBA was almost all white and there was special pleading for diversity.

What about now?

[josefalcanuckistani]

Really dude? You don't get this? He needs to shut the fuck up before he ruins the money machine for the owners. Who last time I checked were all Jews. Nobody cares that the labor is all niggers. Just as long as they provide the entertainment and income for the Jew money machine. And nigger/ sports culture sells. Look at all the wiggers and niggers with their Jordan gear and rap caps. And the stands full of Romans who paid through the nose to watch the gigaboos bounce a ball and run around. That's high culture. That's America$$$$$$

[johnforbes]

Instead of dribbling out this fake crisis, the NBA should look into its abject lack of diversity.

Sterling in a far left liberal Jew worth over a billion dollars, the NAACP is awarding him their highest life time achievement award next month for everything he's done for blacks over the years including over $20 million in black scholarships last year alone. He's the perfect white liberal, he dates a half black half Mexican girl friend, adopted a black baby from Africa, called Bush a racist because of the wars, he's as far left as you can get...and yes he's a racist like ALL white liberals who put on the false fronts to use blacks for their gains. This should be an eye opener for Americans, it's the left who are racist, I'm talking about blacks and white liberals, there are no more racist groups.

Conservatives need to demand an end to their racism, laws need to be passed to make racism a crime and then those laws need to be enforced. .

Magic Johnson should have known how Sterling was going to react. Friend or no friend, you don't fuck around with another man's GF and throw it in his face.

[johnforbes]

It is a slam dunk that a "community organizer" would seize any chance to engage in race-baiting in order to cover his own incompetence on the economy and foreign policy.

[sillydaddy]

I believe that was the Malaysian Prime Minister standing with Obama when he decided to make his comments on Sterling. You can see that the Prime Minister is probably thinking,"What the hell is this guy doing?"

[johnforbes]

CNN is working on a story saying George Zimmerman and the LA Clippers owner were responsible for bringing down that Malaysian jet.

There is an enormous oil spot in the Indian Ocean, but it could be Al Sharpton's hair oil.

[RealJustme]

CNN is indeed stuck on the Malaysian jet story, the NBA racist story disrupted their endless rant with so called airline experts for almost an hour though. Flipped on CNN this morning anr they're filming waves talking about how deep and cold the water is and wondering what happened to the Malaysian jet, they then started playing back sounds of recorded pings suspected to have come from the jet, as they focused on the waves and called for a moment of silence. At that point I went back to channel surfing.

[johnforbes]

Some say that CNN management has decided to abandon news and go toward entertainment.

Not that CNN would report any news which might hurt their fellow Obama anyhow.

Is CNN still stuck with low ratings?

[sillydaddy]

I'm not surprised CNN has low ratings. At one point during their reporting of the Malaysian jet, they had nothing else to say so, they starting discussing the "black boxes" not being painted black! LOL

[Intrepid]

The one thing you can be certain about in this NBA team owner racism imbroglio is that racism is not the main issue here, it was the method.
There is much more going on and racism is the cover story. Everyone knows that the charge of racism trumps everything else and everyone backs away fearing being tarred with the same brush.

Watch who winds up with the team to find the answer. Those people knew Sterling's half black, half Mexican piece of ass arm candy was his vulnerable spot and used her to perfection. She served her purpose and now will be discarded to go back to spreading her legs and getting down on her knees as she has in the past for various sports icons.

And anyone who thinks that billionaire sports team owners don't view the players as the hired help plantation workers (no matter what race) on their hobby team is delusional as well. I speak as someone who works for someone who owns a major league sports team. He tools around in his private jet to watch his slaves play for his amusement from his private skybox.
There was a team owner, Marge Schott (spelling may be off) back in the '80s who referred to her baseball players as, "My niggers." That pretty well sums up the attitude of most of them.

[johnforbes]

Another odd thing about this is the question: Who still pays attention to the NBA?

I played basketball in hs and college. And later played pickup BB all the time.

It used to be that the NBA was on local TV at least one night per week during the season, and the playoffs were sort of a big deal sportswise.

Today, who even pays attention to the tattooed thugs of pro BB?

It isn't just that the league became 90 percent black, but the style of play became more about endless dunking than team play. Jordan would have won far more had he earlier realized he didn't just have a "supporting cast" as he termed it.

[tvd]

I have a question....

How does an organization (NBA) have the authority to FINE anyone? Fine him 2.5 million....shiiittttt.

As far as I am concerned, they don't.

[sillydaddy]

The NBA is getting ready to set a dangerous precedent for private enterprise in this country. It is about to confiscate a business from a private citizen simply because some black one per-centers claimed to take offense over the contents of a perfectly legal private conversation that was illegally recorded and made public with the sole intend of doing damage to the private individual.

[Intrepid]

2.5M is chump change walking around money for this Sterling guy. From all accounts he is a street fighter in court. This is one Jew that isn't going to just roll over and give up his team to Oprah and the race baiters. I hope they leave blood and hair on the walls of that court room.

[RealJustme]

Oprah has announced she's considering buying it with other black partners to make in a black owned team. Now that's real racism, blacks plotting to take a team from a white. Also how can she be planning on buying a team that's not for sale?

There's not a black leader out there, including Oprah that hasn't at some time said something negative about whites while in private, so what if an 80 year old tells his black girl friend not to hang out with blacks, he was probably worried about her safety more than anything else. Bottom line his private conversation with his girlfriend shouldn't be something that gives people power to take $2.5 million and his team from him. If people want to stop buying tickets they can do that but taking from him is bullshit.

[johnforbes]

The NBA used to be a primetime sort of sports enterprise.

Today, a basketball fan will watch perhaps a playoff game or two, but probably turn to college hoops.

The NBA is more than 3/4 black, and plenty of them have tarnished the league's image by acting like tattooed thugs.

The NFL is starting down the same path, but is not as far along.

Where is the diversity in the NBA?
