They had to play.. they're slaves to the NBA remember?

I wonder if they even realize how disrespectful it is to those who were actually slaves to compare yourself and your livelihood to what slaves went through.

In reality we are all slaves to our careers, all that matters is they get their checks at the end of the day cut from this man and they make millions and live lavish lifestyles.

if it was a regular season game i bet they would not have played. i dont think they are playing for money. they are already rich, u dont get many chances to get a ring in your career. they have worked their whole life for this opportunity. not really fair to bash them for playing in my opinion

I'm going to guess based on the way the accuser is acting that it will come out that the tapes are altered and she baited him into saying some of these things.

Lol at the leader of the NAACP declaring that Sterling must pay for "attempting to turn the clock back on race relations." This the same organization that bestowed on Sterling a lifetime achievement award just a few years ago. Guess they didn't do their homework.

Just listening to the recording once leaves the impression that she was essentially reading from a script. While the comments are certainly unwarranted and in poor taste, the accuser is not only a trollop actively participating in an extramarital affair, but also a snake after money or publicity or her charges for embezzlement dropped. She is an opportunist bitch. Nothing more.

I realize that a true understanding of history is beyond. But in fact the bulk of the white racists like strom Thurmond, jesse helms and david duke were given a new home for the belief systems in the Republican Party when it adopted its southern strategy in the late 60s and 70s.

Agreed.
She had to had some help as the audio seems pretty clear. Most recordings I have heard didnt sound quite as crisp as that one did. She has been planning this for awhile.

Yea, most chicks on leashes are told they can sleep with black guys.

I'm the same way. My wife can't take any pictures, but she has Lex Steele on speed dial.

That opportunist bitch needs all her money and gifts taken from her and made to sleep in a tent down on LA's skid row for the entire summer.

LOL, so this whole thing was precipitated by someone calling up Sterling and saying "dude, what's your mistress doing bangin' Magic Johnson"?

Epic trolling.

So what exactly do Five Percenters believe?“The rationale is that the black man is God and created the universe, and is physically stronger and intellectually stronger and more righteous naturally,” says Michael Muhammad Knight, an author of two books on the radical group.

“Whiteness is weak and wicked and inferior — basically just an errant child who needs to be corrected.”
Group supported by Jay-Z and Carmelo. Where's the outrage?

Too busy working a real job and being successful to care about a random NBA owner's/player's opinion.
