I R you know crazy down a certain stories from
my first moved to LA 92 yeah he's it I don't for years they didn't hire enough
trainers
yet they literally good get guys heard Baron Davis partially could recover
because they didn't know how to diagnose dub
they wouldn't paper stuff he famously wouldn't pay for assistant coaches
a cancer treatments yeah like and make it so that players ended up picking up
the tab denies any it's still a lawsuit I think with Mike Dunleavy the former
coach about
money that wasn't paid is another they were the other law see William Taylor
the former GM about by the way I would rather talk about plantation mentality
and there's a lot of stories they want to pick sides in the you know it turns
out we get pics I felt a bailar 100 percent right behind early what herbs
iraq
another great story about Dell sterling how dominant up this guy was
he said I know that part a lawsuit or elsewhere when he hired Elgin Baylor to
be the general manager he had not realized that LG Baylor had played in
the NBA
and yeah I love that they embrace plan for that time right
yeah also starting supporters nonsense word repairs a gold
to pick up their checks and the yeah I'll
let me just pay next week and he would purposely not pay his players
because he wants to keep that money said accrues interest where one extra week
he's up massively Tchibo
on their head that scumbag and then Blake Griffin Chris Paul again headed 20
min D'Andre Jordan and then they hired out rivers and it's like
forget all that other stuff forget that thirty years have
really running a double-a minor league baseball team
as a humanitarian mission ended two when he's wanna make no I don't you love
totally lucked out but your summer the other stuff the dollar sterling has said
over the years
we mention the lawsuit with Elgin Baylor we talked about a plantation mentality
with the Clippers I think we can count that is just a flat out when
for Elgin Baylor but to a property supervisor in 2002
sworn testimony again Dahl sterling on to budget for
landed property buildings and more in the in the South plant
for sale the news and nowhere else up
that's because up all the blacks in the building they smell they're not clean
that sterling in 2002 also from that lawsuit and it's because all the
Mexicans the just sit around and smoke and drink all day
I don't like Mexican man because they smoke drink and just hang around the
house
and Saint these are all from the same law said she was black people that stank
just evict the bitch I'm offering a lotta money for a poor poor black kid he
said that was in regarded
Danny Manning and signing Danny Manning in 1988
allegedly and David Stern's presence I'm offering a lot of money for a poor black
kid
on koreans sworn testimony I don't have to spend any more money on and I'll take
whatever conditions i'd give them and they'll still pay the rent
2009 according to former general manager Elgin Baylor sterling envision the court
southern plantation type structure for the Clippers
one which is he allegedly put it to Baylor said that the Baylor poor black
kids from the south
played for a white head coach this is all gone on there's the biggest federal
lawsuit in history
for housing discrimination against darling for going out of his way to
evict
black and Latino tenants from his elves he's a terrible got what we know this is
true
yeah because there's a doctor in the tape this is exactly what that guy would
say
now Jeff Pearlman is a
writer a New York Times bestselling author has written six books
his latest book is Showtime magic Kareem Riley and the Lakers dynasty
the 1980s he was a senior writer at Sports Illustrated and ESPN dot com
writer he is a serious
reputable sports writer in
2013 when the Clippers hired
Doc Rivers as their head coach so
a full season before we get this nonsense
perlman wrote this
about headlined the eccentric Donald sterling
he didn't include this in one of his books because it didn't fit in
but it's a great story so again this is from Jeff Pearlman
he talks about %uh Paul steps he says those who really remarkable the NBA
remember Phipps is the GM for the Clippers marked over the 82
until the end of the season in nineteen eighty-four nice executive nice man
genuine credibility an eye for talent
he interviewed him several months ago for a book he's writing about the NBA in
the nineteen eighties maybe for that Lakers book
told me a story about sterling that didn't make the final pages says perlman
but it stands out nonetheless in it particularly stands out now
according to fix during his time with the team they were searching for head
coach to replace Paul Silas
black head coach that sterling added we fired we needed someone different that
told me and one of the first guys we talked to was rally massamilla
basketball fans although rally mas miedo coach certain like to the tommy lasorda
college basketball coach at Villanova won a national championship stun
georgetown
and a fun guy the that pasta sauce talk at Dover wat
and clearly a great basketball mind ship at a time estimate was coaching
Villanova was known as a guy on the rise
he flew in be bad got the director player personnel were pressed
he was organized he had a great philosophy we liked his approach to
practice
when they got done within the Clippers when San Diego he had to fly from San
Diego to LA then back to Philly
to return to work at villanova sterling had met with him because he's it doesn't
meet with these guys he smartly at least let the basketball guys handle it
sterling calls and says hey I I wanna meet
babcock & Phillips go 0
like we like this guy week after he not me I
right because they're not idiots so the it that says
O'Boyle storing told that he'd sit down with nasa me know the gate at LAX for
the guy flying from San Diego de like
and then they told nasa me know that that charlie is a bit eccentric you
probably have assured opened and six gold change
change taking out and then they said rolly a
you like they have other women outside his marriage and there was this one
blonde girl who was this friend
so they warn massive me know if this but he's the owner he gets to meet with them
according to this massamilla aboard the jet when he landed LAX he exited the
walkway and he spotted sterling
they met said fits in between three and four in the morning my phone rings
and its mass amino any screaming I'm sorry he says
but never work for that son of a bitch says mass amino
so apparently he showed up
with half a bottle champagne and this blonde bimbo with them
and the gold chains that everything stays drunk and then
Dahl sterling walks up to rally Massimiliano and says
I wanna know how you think you can coach all these niggas
that was 1980 384
and then for thirty years with this story and others like it
we knew this and then again I'm just rocking we're all guilty other we all
thought I went to a Clippers game they're exciting they're fun to watch
it's great
but this is always been a bad guy everything in here is 100 percent true
it is 100 percent what he said
ellios gotta figure out a way I mean I know I said that they're gonna have
trouble doing it because they don't have the antitrust exemption baseball's
gotta figure out a way to force this guy to sell I don't think it's that hard on
the slippery slope
you know the submersible argument that whole they start taking our guys like
this to make it a problem on their hands
they don't have a problem with having track record for players receive wealth
now Metta World Peace formally Ron Artest
when there's a tracker with lifetimes I don't like the track record argument
if a guy gets into it in games he gets into in games it is going to get done or
punishment
and if you get more time but when the whistle blows faster for certain guys
I don't like that because it changes the whole game for people bar on the track
record thing
this guy has a track record and is no other comparison to if you find someone
else in the future there's a compare but record kick his ass out to
this is the same way goes nobody could actually fight this if your races as
Sophia whole life
you don't belong here you seal of approval to take your $685 million
dollars and go
you know it I I I really wish that
on these tapes starring had just said nigger
is that that african-american because doubt because they think that black but
reasonable and to be a black
not if you just said nigger the eye with it but i i think there's I think that I
think outrage min10 time yeah
way to rate I think the outrage is the hallmark look he's he said he said that
word before right the air this is so
clearly he learned over the years while just don't they had and then I I'm not a
racist
right right right that's right now though I but he just said it then with
that is
even more obvious what he really didn't say I her yeah
sure that I'm sure he said in the last few months I i don't have any
I don't have any doubt and it's real people were affected by is toughening
forget Doc Rivers and Chris Paul Blake Griffin DeAndre Jordan
as you say in the white guys on the rage erratic and and Turkoglu in
like but the yet people living in his house
you know who knows how many lives he upset and wrecked at least temporarily
or displaced temporarily because of the spectrum
you know I've sorta change my opinion it just in the courses conversations
actually agree with what you're both saying about
that this should come from the bottom up let the players I know we should put the
pressure on the players step to make a stand
but let the players or or Mark Jackson and Doc Rivers
say we're going to delay this I have I mean do something powerful
that will then forced the NBA's hands I'm feeling tomorrow regards to what
happens
they're gonna say there's a spending at least for the pleasure something while
they investigate further
but do something really powerful that the seminal teachable moment
that comes from the players this week is I don't know what percentage black but a
league is probably eighty percent black okay
I'm you know there's something that you have literally eighty literally if it's
just a half-hour delay screwing up the TNT
programming for tomorrow night or ESPN on every time but do so powerful that
gives the power back to the players
Chris Paul who plays for the Clippers obviously is the president the Players
Association
I mean they have a lot to leverage your and there's a lot I think yeah I don't
let it come from the bottom Mike and I would agree NBA's
gotta a be a be able let them take whatever stand yeah
I a great and you know and on that at again going to the
being just for the black players enough for the Clippers
because after the game yesterday as Marge actions the head coach love
the Warriors who just kick the hell other could last night
that he said we're all affected by the the st. youths says any
lack of energy from the could discover what they've gone to the past 24 hours
heels we've all gone through it you know I wanna see or feel like they had more
they were affected by we've all been affected by this
it to an extent a call bullshit on that Yahoo affected by but not to the same
extent this is the organization
that the owner of the team is is espousing his comments
soul let in again then reaching past just the latest in a black players
if there's going to be a boycott over game in a Gillibrand came out there but
cannot talk about is the David West
if we say the Clippers in the lawyers who work at a game
man all delivered every game with this playoff series
everybody in every game should not play if you got a unifying
not play there's a leak problems yeah they should only played any games not
just this one CA the center too bad that Chris Paul as they have the players
association because
cuz you if he were the if he were Kyrie Irving if you were in
just just pick a guy give you were in Cleveland yep that it would make more
sense if he said
we don't want to put this all the Clippers right like but at the Holy king
is dead here
and %uh play but now he does it'll be like
yeah I don't want to be the only water and I don't think there's any question
like I think I accidentally hit on something there I don't see the Warriors
the lawyers have no interest I imagine in taking advantage
according to Yahoo I was always it'd say he's yeah scheming by your dollars per
hour of like to see something missing in action by the owners our legs are you
are the boss Tommy
to say but i wanna share stadium with these with the fucking asshole
I wanna out at the Staples Center read everything in the kicking out at Staples
Center
I won't hear mark even talk about this in all the high-profile
owner should just she status they were not what you got
they are Europe rooms are bridges will be at your lawyer you know how tough
like those that like you can say it that's great but I'm sure the kick him
out just like yeah
yeah she's you make a stand look if you took it just a basketball level yet
I agree with you the warriors would never take a free win on that
but you know what somebody that could do it Libre on could say I'm not playing
tomorrow there are 30 they're gonna
destroy that teen they really need to play the other game how do you know the
rest he would join in any way
but imagine if just LeBron James sat out
that's it they lose the game anyway probably a bit after they make they may
wear
before your eyes on the face the league said I'm gonna sit down
I mean even the the message in that would be would be so i think im iceberg
on my brown
I think the idea ask you what you were doing all these things would be cool
I think it's critical that I don't think the bird I think the burden is on the
Union to some extent
but it's the owners it's the people with the money here and I think the Union
needs to take a stand I think they need to be united
but I think I i think you make a great point day but I
I worry about like the we then have a feeling I'm like oh that
if they don't do this that somehow that it's got less
like I don't think it's on them this is down sterling is sparta
that club even and that club is the club needs to take the action
the league and the owners at the summit that I think the Union
needs to figure out a way to have a unified response she said
with all teams involved now happen as David Stern that he's like in Hawaii
right now take on my thigh
you know immediately who had deliberately added going okay I i
to some extent silver is at least moderately inoculated although we did
work for the league of course from that
hi jew let this guy hang around because now we're getting all these other
stories which again we're out but they were
but they were piecemeal now well just shows you as always as
as as as Mel Gibson learn to you know you put it on tape but that tape on the
radio and television
no changes all major story
ok
