Pretty cool sign of solidarity by the teams. The response by almost every party involved has been so spot on that this negative and potential black eye caused by DST can almost be viewed as a positive when you consider the response of the people. He is a disgusting human, but the lack of tolerance showed by nearly everyone is a good sign that society is headed in a positive direction when it comes to tolerance for bigots and racists.

we are one indeed!!!

all 29 other owners have agreed through social media that they give their full support to Adam Silver and his decision to force Sterling out.

Am I the only one still worried that he wiggles his way with courts?

Just dropping in to give my Dodger fam Neddy a shout... I've been around LA sports a long time and have hated Sterling since forever... Good luck with all this, guys.

It was great to see the support for the players across the nation
whether it for the right reasons or for political, financial gain or good free agents.

Politicians for the city of LA give me a break. They did not lose a bit of sleep
like Doc, KJ or Silver but they were there to take the credit.

Once the team is sold this team will be better than it ever has been.

Clippers will have to overcome Warriors, Memphis or Dallas/Spurs and perhaps
the Blazers to get to the WCF. It is a tall order but now they are more prepared
with Doc.

Can I say this... when I first saw the video clip of the Heat players wearing their "Heat" warm-up jerseys inside out too, in solidarity with the Clippers... I started getting that welling-up feeling. I don't know where it came from, it hit me pretty suddenly. But it instantly brought clarity to the entire situation for me...

Clippers = Heat (= all the players/teams)
Sterling = NBA, all owners

Good for the players.


(I would love to see more of the FANS across the country show solidarity with Clips fans too)

Owners still have to show it with their VOTE.

Otherwise this gesture is just a slickster P.R. move.

The Warriors had plans to walk out, walk off the court for game 5, if the commish hadn't done what he did--hit Sterling with the max punishment allowed...

I think the only team to back the Clips players from the start were the HEAT & once the NBA,players & fans knew that LBJ and his court were in, everyone else fell in line.
A huge shout out to the Mimi Heat; the players, Management & their fans.

We have a commercial now too:

Sounds like the Clippers crowd from last night was used for the chant; I was in the stands and it was euphoric to be a part of this type of unity.
