Also this could be a bigger problem than the Clippers:

So I wouldn't even be surprised if Ballmer goes unscathed because he has more resources than the whole NBA, and if he gets taken down he might try to bring down everyone else with him.
Ohhh man I wouldn't want to be Adam Silver right now because someone knows where the bodies are buried and they could allllll get unearthed now.
There might be a sweeping federal probe on the way.
Yea, it could possibly be a terrible situation for Silver, but if you want to make a change to something, you have to start somewhere. Obviously he wouldn't want to start with a guy that has enough money, power and influence to go against him and the rest of the league and win, but you get my point, can't really choose the one that starts it.
I'm thinking about it further now; like what about the circumvention of the luxury taxes, 2nd apron, repeater taxes, etc; how many millions did this avoid? How many owners missed out on those tax payments because of it? Are other players involved? Someone mentioned Ballmer tried to do this in 2015 as well? Are other owners doing this? Quite the conundrum. I'm so sorry you have to go through this as a diehard fan. I wouldn't wish this on any team we're rivals with.
