    I'm not sure that's true. If there is any evidence that he signed that deal with knowledge of the no-show 28M deal, the NBA could void the contract regardless

    besides that, the trade would need to be approved by the NBA and if they had Kawhi, Ballmer, & the Clippers under investigation, the league would veto that trade PDQ

    Is Adam Silver full of crap too? (cued to 1:28)

    "It was news to me. Frankly, I had never heard of the company Aspiration before."

    Backtracking on his comments about the NBA being a highlight league, and his not knowing about the Aspiration deal.

    "Just to be clear, I'm not sure if, if I said I never heard of it, it was in the context of the accusations here."

    @THE HCP the commissioner is trying fuck up your big raise. You better get your boy Adam Silver back in line.

    Fine, as long as they also part ways with a bunch of draft picks too.
