Wow, way to stand up against discrimination, Baylor. And if he was so "underpaid," why didn't he just leave? 22 years of racial discrmination and "unacceptable" wages means it wasn't bad enough for him to just get up and go.
Didn't you pay any attention to his press conference ? He stayed because it was NO blacks in the front offices of any NBA team (at the time he took the job). He felt he had to set an example and let it be known the job could be done. If you look back through history it had been only 1 black GM prior to Baylor that was Wayne Embry of the Milwaukee Bucks. Baylor was only the second to be appointed that position then Wes Unsel with the Bullets.

Yeah pretty much...........only a fool would think Sterling actually gave Baylor the absolute power to run the team as needed to. The only power Baylor had was drafting, cause when it came to free agents Sterling was a cheap a** and you know it.

I wouldn't be surprised if Sterling has some type of racial prejudice but he's done nothing wrong this time around. The only mistake he made was keeping a crappy GM for 22 years who only produced a winning team in 3 of them.
Ah.......no this lawsuit makes plenty of sense, like I said Sterling has had the run of the mill for getting over on people his time is up this time. If Baylor only wanted to go after Sterling he suit only would be against Sterling and the Clippers, but he named the NBA also for purposes you'll find out later. Oh Sterling has done plenty of wrong but somebody else is going to make it right.

This has nothing to do about me being a Laker fan or the fact that Baylor was a Laker, the bottom line here is about somebody checking Sterling and exposing him for what he really is...........a low life sap. You said NOTHING in your post to suggest why Baylor can't win this lawsuit, please explain him having no grounds for a case when there have been actual proof from Baylor himself and comments from ex-players who know as much.
And please don't get it twisted for one minute if you think many of the players who Baylor drafted come to his aide as a witness in this case. Cause they know full well what went on and they are better suited to expose Sterling and the rest of his staff for what they are. When I hear Danny Manning say, "you don't know Sterling, and that's just something he would say" that's all I need to hear but it's also what I knew too.
