Reports: Clippers owner Donald Sterling has cancer

Disgraced Clippers owner Donald Sterling has cancer, according to multiple reports.



The New York Post reported Thursday that Sterling has been battling cancer for some time, citing multiple sources. ESPN.com confirmed the report, also citing multiple sources. Further specifics are not yet available, and neither Sterling nor his representatives have publicly confirmed the diagnosis.

Earlier this week, NBA commissioner Adam Silver imposed a lifetime ban and a $2.5 million fine on Sterling, who was caught on tape making a series of racist remarks. Silver also pledged to work with the league’s owners to force out Sterling as owner, and the NBA’s 10-member advisory/finance committee voted unanimously on Thursday to pursue Sterling’s ouster.

TMZ released audio last Friday of a conversation in which Sterling can be heard scolding V. Stiviano, his girlfriend, for bringing African-Americans to Clippers games and for posting photos of herself and African-Americans, including Lakers legend Magic Johnson, to her Instagram account. Silver said the NBA was able to authenticate that it was Sterling’s voice on the tape and that Sterling acknowledged that it was his voice during a league investigation.

The 80-year-old Sterling, who has owned the Clippers for 33 years, has yet to issue any public statement since receiving his lifetime ban. Sterling has not publicly admitted that it was his voice on the tape, he has not directly apologized for the comments, and Silver indicated Tuesday that Sterling had not expressed any remorse for the comments.

A three-quarters majority vote of the league’s owners — 22 out of the other 29 owners — is required to force out Sterling. Kings owner Vivek Ranadive said he expects unanimous support from the NBA owners to oust Sterling.

Representatives of the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA) said at a press conference in Los Angeles on Tuesday that while they are pleased with the term of the punishment handed down by Silver, they still believe Sterling must be removed as Clippers owner.

“We want maximum allowable punishment under the bylaws and constitution and what that equates to for us as players, there must be a change in ownership,” said Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson, who is acting as an adviser for the NBPA.

“As players, we’re very happy with the decision, but we’re not content yet,” NBPA vice president Roger Mason Jr. said. “We want immediate action. We want a timetable from the owners on when this vote is going to happen. We feel confident that with Adam Silver’s urging, and we’ve heard from a lot of the owners around the league, we think this is something that can be handled quickly.”

Sterling told a Fox News reporter on Tuesday, moments before Silver announced the ban, that he was not planning to sell the Clippers.

Oh the irony here in regards to the woman in the middle of all of this. She goes out and puts pictures of herself with athletes on social media sites, most people do this only to bring attention to themselves. Now that she has all of the attention she could ever hope for, now she can't leave her home without an onslaught of media attention and has chosen to walk from the house to her car with a full face mask on. She claims a friend leaked the audio to TMZ, you need to do a better job of choosing friends if you are so devastated now that your gravy train is gone. I'm sure multiple adult video companies have contract offers already prepared to be signed.
The leader of the NAACP of Los Angeles has resigned his position as well.
How this all plays out will be based on how much and how long Mr. Sterling wants to fight. The original statement from the NBA did not state that a family member could not be the new owner of the team or that it would have to be sold for market value.

Sterling needs to get out of the NBA environment. He is an ignorant 81 year old demented racist from a bygone era. BUT, that bitch whore should be sued by him for illegally taping their conversations without his permission and knowledge.



Yes, correct - in fact I really dislike both of them - I don't want to get into the case, but I will say if I owned a sports franchise of any kind, especially basketball, I'd send a limo anytime Magic Johnson wanted to attend - another telling comment about Mr Sterling was from a player - who stated the only time the tem ever heard from Mr Sterling was if he wanted to complain about something.

OTOH, it troubles me that so many think its OK to mandate a business be sold - that is unlikely to happen, but stay tuned, as the case makes its way to the Supreme Court.

This is a rich old jack off with the time, money, and personality to persue this for years.

Final comment - I've often wondered how jerks like Mr Sterling get so rich when they are so clueless and lacking in people skills. His "girlfriend" is just an opportuinistic CUNT looking for her 15 min's of fame - plus all the expensive gifts she received - Note to Sterling:

Plenty better pu*sy available for waaaaaaay less than the worth of the gifts you showered on that ungrateful bitch - you and she deserve each other - you are both pathetic assholes :roll:

You really don't have to be a genius to get that rich. You just have to be a particular type of scumbag to work the system. I am not saying all rich people are like that, but certainly Sterling is of the type.

The main issue now is the pending divorce and settlement, which could take a couple of years in the legal system. Bring on the lawyers :roll:

i dislike sterling for lots of reasons but this is nonsense and he's going to litigate as he should.
a private, albeit disgusting, conversation is illegally recorded in his home and they feel it justifies taking away his business and livelihood? they knew for 20 years who this guy was and how he thought.
donald is a scumbag, slumlord pos but this is a huge overreach.
if you're a clipper fan prepare for armageddon and the destruction of your team.
like mark cuban said, this is a slippery slope.
anyone here think they could survive with our private conversations being recorded?
yeah didn't think so.




If some of my private conversations were aired I might be doing time.... :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
