For his racist comments caught on tape, Clippers owner Donald Sterling recently had this ruling put on him by NBA commissioner Adam Silver:
$2.5M fine (maximum allowed in by-laws)
Lifetime ban from NBA games
Lifetime ban from NBA function
Zero access to facilities during Clippers games and practices
Urging by the BoD to owners for forced divestiture of ownership
Was the hammer too great, or spot on?
Also to take into consideration:
He spoke these words on his private property
He broke no actual laws
His girlfriend broke the law by recording him without his knowledge
