I'm pretty sure Kobe makes more than any white guy in the league.

Uh, did Doc Rivers quit? Until he does, the Clippers already have a black coach, who also happens to be one of the best coaches of all time.

Which is why I call bull$hit on this "article." Why would a player speculate about hiring a coach when he already has one?

Get his confirmation and get back to us.
I figure that if he can't get to Chris, he might be able to ask his twin brother Cliff.

Sterlings actions and words over the years shows he hates black people.


In sworn testimony, one of Sterling's top property supervisors Sumner Davenport claimed he made racist comments about black people living in one of the buildings he had just acquired:
"That's because of all the blacks in this building, they smell, they're not clean. ... And it's because of all of the Mexicans that just sit around and smoke and drink all day."



In a 1983 incident, prospective Clippers coaching candidate Rollie Massimino says that Sterling used the N-word in an impromptu interview at LAX (via Jeff Pearlman):
“Here’s this guy, and he has this blonde bimbo with him, they have a bottle of champagne, they’re tanked. And Don looks at me and he says, ‘I wanna know why you think you can coach these n*****s.’”

Chris Paul could have screamed it from the top of the mountain and you would have applauded him for not "tommin'" it up, right?

Look, he definitely said it. As soon as Doc Rivers was hired...Paul was cemented in and canceled all of his scheduled visits to other teams.

He said it.

Who benefits from making this up?
He said what? Your link had no direct quote from him.

I have met Snoop Dogg and his crew, they were nice people, never came off as hating white people, but a number of them did come off as being high most of the time, including Snoop Dogg.

Kareem Abdul Jabar said Sterling was a very cordial man, showed him nothing but respect and invited him to his daughters wedding.

So, what are we getting at here?

Yep, and Sterling also made racial slurs that everyone has heard him say directly. You find a direct quote from Chris Paul and then people might listen.
