I'm surprised this old bigot didn't hurl N-bombs at Davis.

Give it time, one is sure to slip out sooner or later. Not very classy stuff.

Sterling is only keeping alive a Clippers tradition, having hecklers.
Though Sterling is too cheap to pay hecklers (like used to be in the past) and instead does it on his own.

Los Angeles Times version wrote:"What he really wants is to not pay the guy [Davis], and they told [Sterling] he can't do that. . . . I know he wants to do it, but obviously he couldn't do it," said a league source who has worked closely with Davis and required anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly for the player. "He used to tell Baron, 'You're terrible. You can't shoot threes. Why do you shoot threes?' "

...

"That's the M.O. If you have the lowest payroll, or one of the lowest payrolls, in the league, how does that translate into a playoff team? The facts are always there. Teams that get into the playoffs spend the most money."

That last comment was a reference to Sterling's having told Times columnist T.J. Simers in August that he wouldn't have signed Ryan Gomes and Randy Foye, whom the Clippers did sign in free agency. (Sterling couldn't even remember Foye's name.)

Perhaps in his mind, he's encouraging Davis to do better. In his mind, he probably isn't a slum lord either; he's just encouraging people to better their lot in life by not allowing them to get too comfortable. Or he's just a complete tool.

Sterling continues to prove he's a quality human being/NBA owner

I think we can all enjoy the irony of Donald Sterling calling another human being a piece of trash.

“It was purely sex for money, money for sex, sex for money, money for sex. The girl was providing sex for money.”


So what exactly was the nature of their relationship? It's a little unclear.

I don't know, that would imply that he considers people under his employ to be his equals, or at the very least fellow human beings.

Is he outspoken or socially retarded?

Re: Clippers Owner Donald Sterling Heckles Baron Davis
