you're not equipped for this, tree-hugger. business is not something you're versed in, just tap out.
I've owned businesses, managed businesses, and invested in businesses. Clippers ain't a public company, I assume sterling owns a controlling share, if not 100%. you can't force a man to sell his business.
Despite having owned, managed and invested in businesses you seem very confused. When Stirling acquired the Clippers, he agreed to a set of rules, similar to the rules that you would have to agree to when you purchase a home that is in common-interest development. Under that agreement, NBA owners could theoretically force him to sell. Do Sterling's actions be used to invoke that clause in the purchase agreement? Maybe, maybe not - that issue will most likely end up being adjudicated in Court.
if he were CEO, the board of directors could vote on terminating him, but he's not elected (hired). it's like forcing Sergey and the other guy to sell Google.com..... you can't do it. Sure, you can fire Eric Schmidt (although I believe he's stepped down already... beside the point), but you can't force Sergey and other guy (the owners) to sell.... the same way you can't force zuckerberg to sell his interest in Facebook..... the same way Annaly Capital can't force me to sell my shares because of something other shareholders see me posting on Getbig. that's not how it works kid.
You're comparing apples and oranges.
I don't take kindly to disrespect. not on the internet, not in person, not in a grocery store parking lot, not in like at walmart, not in a restaurant, not at the beach, not at the dry cleaners... anywhere.
