  1. The integrity of the NBA is on the line. Without integrity, the NBA is doomed. I may never watch basketball again if no heavy penalties are levied against the Clippers, Ballmer and Leonard after this continued evidence just dropped.

  2. Steve Balmer was ranked the top NBA owner in 2025…😂😂😂…now he’s likely getting kicked out…hilarious turn of events

  3. If Pablo Torre was still working for ESPN, no way this comes out. The NBA would look at it as a conflict of interest.

  4. AIPAC wants to own all major sports teams.
    Start there. Ask Epstein Client Adam Silver which side he's on:
    Americans' Vs Netanyahu's?
    One or the other.
    Time for a new NBA commissioner.

  5. I met his uncle Dennis the week that Kawhi L started with the clips. I met him at a Whole Foods sports bar by Staple Center. I remember the conversation and I asked him why he didn’t join the Lakers and he said they didn’t offer him what the clips offered. Yeah I am glad the Lakers walked away from that mess

  6. Reminds me of the old days – college recruits would get perks from businesses that sponsor the team. I remember a player I met as a freshman telling me that he didn't think his career would go anywhere, but he was happy to have gotten a new TransAm and a big check for his parents.

  7. The League will cover this up. I bet this happens more than any of the fans know. The NBA can't be trusted.

  8. Adam Silver is not going to do anything. He's has no more integrity. He on the take, it is the only logical explanation.

    He has made it quiet clear he does not care about the fans and does no longer care about the game. He is pushing the game straight off the cliff and he definitely is personally benefitting from it. His latest press conference made this abundantly clear.

    If we want our game back then we, the fans, need to do something about it.

  9. Paul George did the right thing by leaving this crazy organization known as the Clippers. What’s really crazy is the Clippers aren’t even winning any championships! I hope the MBA owners vote Balmer and all else guilty (if proven) out.

  10. Pablo Torre is like the old lady in the neighborhood who likes to look through the window and tell her friends what’s happening. From now on 0 ATHLETES will trust him.

  11. If u can't afford to pay for all of the different streaming svcs to catch games the commissioner says to catch the highlights b/c "the NBA is a highlights based sport"… that's the biggest news the NBA dropped this week imho, I hope that the reporters will talk about what that means going forward for folks

  12. I'll never understand why the Clippers would bend over backwards for a player who can't even be relied on for his availability. I hope kawhi is suspended for a full season and all those monies he made for not working, have to be paid back as a penalty

  13. I’m with you on this but calling the Clippers a “crown jewel” 💎 of the NBA is ridiculous

  14. Ballmer and the NBA caught with their hands on the cookie jar. Hurry, sweep it under the rug, and keep it off ESPN. 😂😅😂😅😂😅😂

  15. All the wealthier owners have probably been doing this already, that's why they didn't protest when it wasn't brought up at the board of governors meeting. As they say, its a copycat league. Wealthy owners have more resources and ways to cheat than the league has resources to catch them, its just like the stock market. When you have over a hundred billion in wealth, there are ways to do shit. i think Ballmer just got lazy and sloppy is why he got caught.

  16. What is so hard for these three to understand that the commissioner will do nothing more than a slap on the wrist. Steve Ballmer is one of the richest men in the country. The NBA and the commissioner does not want to run afoul of that kind of power. Simple as that. The rules are different for the ultra rich. It doesn’t mean it’s right, but it is the truth.

  17. How did Balmer not think the $2M payment would not come out when he was denying everything?

  18. Ballmer seems like a nice enough guy. But nice guys don't get to be the 6th wealthiest person in the world. Too much smoke here. This latest has the gun still smoking. But he is the richest owner by a country mile. Built a multi billion arena on his own dime. Nba will slap him on the wrist and move on. And Khawi will continue to steal money for no services from the nba and the scam company.

  19. The fact that Ballmer is on the NBA's Auditors board which is supposed to find out these violations is telling. It means Ballmer would've know exactly what NBA might be looking for, so he was probably confident that NBA would never find out.
