Depends what lawsuit and how you define "win".

If he doesn't get the team sold before next season then he's lost and he has lost.

You are missing the point, Shaq does not own a team in an 80% black league so there is no conflict of interest with the business he runs. If Sterling had been just your average citizen, there would have been nothing wrong (well his feelings are obviously idiotic not unlike all the other prejudice scumbags in the world, but not illegal). It was those dreadful beliefs combined with being an NBA owner that got him banned.

**tony_come** · 04-30-14, 10:26 AM

If you're white like myself please stop going to NBA games

Right, roles are reversed. Shaq is an employee.

**tommygun** · 04-30-14, 11:03 AM

what has shaq said?

**JR007** · 04-30-14, 11:18 AM

Sterling holds some good cards, league does not want the publicity of a lawsuit.....I think they will have to settle out of court, and give him his price, plus the capital gains tax

So many people seem confused, bringing up free speech and whatnot.

The NBA is a private business and what he said is bad for business. Free speech does not apply.

They should fire him then, it should hurt their "brand" and "image" like sterling did to the nba. Same exact thing

**packerd_00** · 04-30-14, 12:18 PM

Wheres the uproar over Shaq making fun of a Disabled guy on his Instagram.

**packerd_00** · 04-30-14, 12:20 PM

What was the story with the land dispute Sterling settled,Barkley was going on about it.

**jjgold** · 04-30-14, 12:21 PM

Shaw has zero class

If true he should lose his job

**etothep** · 04-30-14, 12:22 PM

I thought Shaq was part owner of the Kings though?

Exactly. Lots of misinformation in these threads. For the most part, I quit reading them and learned a long time ago, most here don't want to learn anything or hear the true version, they're only interested in spouting their opinion and arguing.

Go to the politics forum, thats all it is.

Surely you weren't expecting a legitimate discussion involving race on an internet forum were you?

**The Kraken** · 04-30-14, 01:36 PM

Um, no.

How so? Explain to me how it is right for a racist to own an NBA team? In Shaq's case, the onus is on TNT to do something if they want to.

Just remember folks black on black crimes and mischief doesn't get reported at all because of the lame stream media.

I agree something should be said for Shaq doing this. We all know Shaq acts like a kid at times and he does kid around a lot, but again the NBA has a double standard for the blacks.

Also follow the economy you clowns. What happens tomorrow on the First Friday of each month? It is called the Non Farm Payroll report and the news will be bad. The GDP only grew at .1 in the last quarter of last year, so the lame stream media will milk this crap for all it is worth to keep this news of the baby boy obozo the boy blunder, liar con and fraud in the white house.

If you don't believe me check the info out at : www.forexfactory.com.

Start doing some homework you bunch of clowns and start asking why are they doing this at this time.

They pulled the same shit during Christie Gate it was the First Friday of the month and the news was bad.

Anything to protect the goon boy loser in the white house!

Shaqs a joke though,the way he was tearing into Sterling the other day and he bullies a disabled kid.

**The Kraken** · 04-30-14, 01:44 PM

Ultimately, Sterling is held accountable by the commissioner and held responsible by the other 29 owners.

Plenty of racist business owners that aren't getting their businesses taken away however they're not the owner of an NBA team. They don't have a commissioner to answer to and 29 other individuals that hold the power to vote them off the island.

Honestly, it has to be this way. One owner could destroy the entire NBA. They have to protect the brand and investments of the other 29 owners.

**JR007** · 04-30-14, 01:48 PM

was that Larry Johnson whom said start a black league, ok then we also need a white league, Jim Crow" separate but equal" allover again....really, the stupidity of some of these clowns

**mcdonae101** · 04-30-14, 01:48 PM

But shaq is part owner of a team. The Kings.

LT and every other penetrating hypocrite out there.

It's a shame they don't let any brave white men on ESPN, I'd have a field day.

First, I never knew that Shaq was a part-owner of any NBA team. But that aside, what he did, while deplorable, wasn't really as bad as being an outright racist. Shaq used bad judgement to offend ONE disabled person, whereas Sterling is prejudice against an entire race. I do think that Shaq deserves some kind of punishment because what he did was definitely ludicrous, but to equate Shaq to Sterling is just plain stupid.

**jbart28** · 04-30-14, 02:27 PM

You can't just confiscate an owners team because he was illegally recorded by a gold digging slut. This court case is a slam dunk for Sterling.

The recording is inadmissible in court. The gold digger will be criminally charged and Silver and the gold digger will be sued civilly.

Also, we don't know the back story behind his comments. Maybe the gold digger was getting gang banged by the guests she wanted to give Sterling's Tickets to.

Maybe the people disrespected him another way.

Plenty of blacks in the spotlight have said much worse in public. Wonder what they say in "private". IF we recorded these black people without them knowing I guaren fuking tee you they have said way way worse.

GTFO with this media frenzy. They should cover real issues like Obamacare fail and the lack of jobs in this shit ty economy build by this piece of trash commie in office.

Exactly my point and now you're back tracking trying to justify what he did "wasn't really as bad.."

You're being a hypocrite.

Can you send me the hierarchy chart of what's more racist and bad as other things since you clearly speak for everyone.

O my fault I thought by one they meant everyONE.

None of that has anything to do with the NBA, which is in reality a private company. The owners will vote him out of power and the NBA will own the franchise temporarily until the franchise is sold, and there is nothing Sterling can do to prevent it because it is allowable in the NBA's by-laws. The thing is, the ousted owner(s) does not really have to have broken any laws for that to happen, if 3/4 of the owners want you out, you are out regardless of the reason. And yes he could definitely win a lawsuit vs. the girlfriend, but that is irrelevant as far as the NBA is concerned.

**paco** · 04-30-14, 02:37 PM

LT, blacks are the most racist people. But society is so scared to call them out, they always justify it
