Los Angeles Clippers’ owner Donald Sterling has indicated
that he won’t pay the $2.5 million fine levied on him by NBA Commissioner Adam
Silver as punishment for his racist remarks. Now we get to see what kind of
backbone the new commissioner really has because Sterling isn’t going away

This is an extremely messy situation for a commissioner to
have to deal with in his inaugural year at the position but after serving so
many years under David Stern, Silver should be prepared to go toe-to-toe with
the Clippers’ enigmatic owner.
