There’s NO Room for Donald Sterling in NBA
While off his 18th-century plantation Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling caught RANTING about his hatred towards blacks.
CelebNMusic247 reported on Sterlings RANT against a photo of Magic Johnson with his 20-something gold digger girlfriend.
Sterling’s RACISM is causing a SERIOUS wave of backlash which has even reached President Barack Obama on the otherside of the planet, who was at a town hall meeting in Malaysia Sunday describing the statements as “incredibly offensive racist statements.”
Obama added that Donald Sterlings RACISM is a continuing legacy of slavery and segregation that Americans must vigilantly fight.
Obama said:
“When ignorant folks want to advertise their ignorance, you don’t really have to do anything, you just let them talk.”
Despite several NBA stars calling for Sterling’s ouster, league commissioner Adam Silver announced Saturday night no action would be taken pending the results of an investigation.
Silver said the probe would focus on whether it was in fact Sterling who was recorded telling his mixed-race gal pal not to bring blacks to Clippers games.
Silver said, calling the comments on the tape:
“All members of the NBA family should be afforded due process and a fair opportunity to represent their side of any controversy, which is why I’m not yet prepared to discuss any potential sanctions against Donald Sterling.”
“offensive and disgusting.”
“We will, however, move extraordinarily quickly in our investigation.”
Silver added that Sterling has agreed not to attend the Clippers’ Sunday playoff game. While ex-NBA star Charles Barkley while broadcasting on TNT’s NBA coverage.
He said:
“You can’t have this guy making statements like that.”
“You have to suspend him and fine him immediately.”
An angry Johnson BLASTED on Twitter:
“LA Clippers owner Donald Sterling’s comments about African Americans are a black eye for the NBA.”
“(My wife) and I will never go to a Clippers game again as long as Donald Sterling is the owner.”
Miami Heat star LeBron James added:
“There is no room for Donald Sterling in our league.”
