If Ballmer gets the team the will for sure be moving to Seattle. I Magic Johnson gets the team or anyone else they will probably stay in LA.

Yeah because he wants to drop 1.8 billion on it and then devalue it immediately by going from LA to Seattle. That's ridiculous.

Ballmer is just again proving he has a check ready for the NBA. Seattle will get an NBA expansion very soon. Leagues are looking at the success of the Cascadia rivalry in MLS and are wanting to get in on it.

Should the Clippers sell for $1.8 billion, it would be the second-highest price ever paid for a U.S. sports team and would work out to a 16.3% compound annual rate of return. Over the same period the S&P 500 posted an annual return (including reinvested dividends) of 11.3%.

Why that little rascal. Did Sterling tape himself to arrange all this?

Is getting kicked out of the league, on purpose, the new way for owners to sell at triple the price they would have gotten?
