Kawhi "no-show job" that paid $28M

If Clippers paid the asks because other teams were willing to if they didn’t, can those other teams get in trouble too, if it can be proven?

Like if we were willing to meet Unc Dennis’s demands, are we just as guilty even if he chose the Clippers?

NOT sure if this is NEW info OR NOT!

Didn't watch the video either. But it is from Someone I *trust*!

Completely new info and really challenges Ballmer's claim that he was duped by Aspiration and its co-founders.

It’s not much, but my decision on whether or not to get league pass this year hinges on the outcome of this investigation.

It probably won’t be solved by then, so maybe I just pirate/watch YouTube recaps for the time being.

Does anybody really believe if this was New Orleans or Memphis they wouldn't void the star's contract, suspend everyone and take away the ASG?

Clippers PR didn’t want Aspiration questions on Media Day.

FFS, they're all clearly guilty. What the hell kind of answer is that ?

He didn't want to lie, so he deflected. It's an admission of guilt for sure.

Raptors fans should go onto every twitter post and reply "aspiration" until it becomes unbearable for their PR team to keep up

I didn't know Lawrence Frank cosplays as Bill Burr nowadays.

The kind that will only hurt them IF the league/Silver actually takes meaningful action . I'm surprised they aren't saying something along the lines of "I can't comment because there is an ongoing active investigation."

TBH, I won't be surprised if Pablo (or someone else) eventually finds evidence of cap circumvention going back to 2019.

Unless there's some new breaking news. I get the sense that this is going to get buried and go away with a whimper. Exactly how the league wants it to go.

It would be seriously disheartening and take away from how I feel about the NBA. But then again, we know the league cares more about big market teams. We watch bull calls and officiating every year.

It's comical how obvious it was when you follow the money.

So now Aspiration investors are suing Steve Ballmer, suggesting he was complicit in the fraud.

This means that this could go to court and Ballmer and others would have to face open discovery. This is bad for the Clippers and bad for Adam Silver. The legal case is no longer controlled by the NBA.

Good, means Adam Silver cannot weasel his way out

C Court · Post #639 » by **C Court** » Wed Nov 5, 2025 12:11 am

Exactly correct. The 11 Aspiration investors are now in control of the proceedings.

Adam Silver can't just release selective information (that's not too damaging to the NBA's reputation) and sweep the more serious dealings under the rug. A whole lot more is going to be out in the open.

Rumours also swirling about Ty Lue being involved in the gambling scandal. Clippers truly a cursed organization. Kawhi really chose dollar store Lakers over a chance to repeat
