    This broad isn't innocent either, but it doesn't give the owner any excuse for his racist beliefs.

    Apparently Sterling's wife was at the game and had a brief off-camera interview with ESPN sideline reporter Lisa Salters.

    Yeah I am calling her out in a negative light. Maybe I'm wrong and she is totally in love with this man and it isn't about the money. I'm sure she didn't know he was married either.

    as entertaining as this first round has been, i'm getting a little worried that all the teams that everyone thought could beat the heat are going to be done in the first round.

    I guess I was questioning the rather unnecessarily misogynistic name-calling (is misogyny ever really necessary?). Without a doubt, she has made some questionable choices in her life, but none of us know her story, do we? What I do know is that she is a person, not a "broad".

    I think Brooklyn has the best chance of surviving, and thus posing a real threat to Miami. Should Indiana advance along, I've got no faith in them currently to beat the Heat.

    Yeah the Heats road looks a lot easier now, rather than a month or two ago.

    I've become less worried about the Heat being beat in the East. The Spurs are seriously surprising me...I was thinking this was there year. Now I'm not so sure...

    i think the west is just really stacked 1-8.

    Yeah. It's probably the case that 8 of the best nine teams in the league are in the West.

    Normally, despite how stacked the conference is, Dallas being up 2-1 on San Antonio would be the story of the West playoffs thus far (well, at least a bigger story), but of course that's changed since the Sterling "incident" this weekend. Needless to say, game 5 in L.A. on Tuesday is going to be rather interesting/fascinating; can't wait to watch the local broadcast for that game, in particular for Ralph Lawler's take on all of this.

    Bill Simmnons confirmed on the ESPN post - game show that he'll be at Staples Tuesday.

    This Blazers-Rockets series is definitely the most entertaining of them all. Glad to see my Blazers pull off the comeback win!

    Wes, was the hero of that game. He was all over the court, mostly on the ground. Nice job Blazers.

    I know it's not Dwight Howard's fault per se as to why Houston is down 3-1, but I will delight* in their deficit anyway.



    *Despite the tremendous respect I have for Harden & McHale

    Heroes all around. But the biggest kudos go to Mo Williams for that HUGE 3 towards the end of the 4th quarter.

    Having four starters score 20+ apiece is also pretty sweet!

    So, Magic Johnson apparently wants to buy the Clippers.

    Not quite as good a resolution as moving them to Seattle, but I'd take it.

    Added bonus: Tunick's reaction to a Laker legend running the Clippers.

    I just can't get over how crazy this sequence was:

    What are the rules for that? I mean would Magic have to divest himself of his Dodgers ownership in order to buy the Clippers like the NFL makes people give up ownership of other pro team properties before purchasing a franchise?

    This has prompted even Michael Jordan to comment on the situation.
