From
where I sit it looks like Adam Silver manged to formulate the perfect
response...
Sadly,
Donald Sterling still stands to profit from the exposure of his true
nature. Although the NBA plans to force him to sell the Clippers,
Sterling will see a hefty payday. Forbes has the team listed with a
$575 million value. Tragically there's nothing the NBA can do about
that. The other problem is that despite all this exposure and
negative publicity Sterling isn't going to change. Neither will
anyone else sharing his disgusting world views. Change will start in
youth, not adults. The key is education, not denunciation. That
being said, it's great to see everyone on the same page. Having Adam
Silver stand before the sporting world and speak on behalf of
everyone in the NBA was a great moment in sports history. The anger
is his voice was palpable. So was the passion. It's something we
don't get to see very often from the head of a league. It was one of
the biggest moments in NBA history. Adam Silver has been in charge
for a matter of weeks and he has already changed the game. Good for
him!
At
least that's how I see it and I sit in the cheap seats.
