Also, the fact that he's getting an award from the NAACP... yeah.

He's always been hated by the NBA and the owners in general and has a long history of being detrimental to the league.  He'll make out like a bandit,  of course.  He paid 12.5 million for the team in 1981 and it's estimated that he could get above $1 billion for it now.

A billion? I saw a valuation of $550 million. Quite the return.

I'm not saying anything should be done about it, but it seems the moral of the story is that racism pays, and I don't know how I feel about that. Well actually I do, and it's not a good feeling.
