DALLAS -- Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban called Donald
Sterlings purported comments about minorities "abhorrent"
while saying he didnt think the NBA could force him out
as owner of the Los Angeles Clippers. Speaking in Dallas
locker room before Game 4 of a first-round series against
San Antonio on Monday night, Cuban said he trusted
Commissioner Adam Silver to "operate under the best
interest of the NBA." The outspoken billionaire said it
was a "slippery slope" to suggest that Sterling should be
forced out as owner over comments made in the privacy of
his home. "What Donald said was wrong. It was abhorrent,"
Cuban said. "Theres no place for racism in the NBA, any
business Im associated with. But at the same time, thats
a decision I make. I think youve got to be very, very
careful when you start making blanket statements about
what people say and think, as opposed to what they do.
Its a very, very slippery slope." Two days earlier, Cuban
declined to give his opinion over the brewing saga of the
racist comments that Sterling is alleged to have made in
a taped conversation. While he was more forceful in his
rebuke of Sterling in front of about two dozen reporters
Monday, Cuban questioned how the league would legislate
other forms of discrimination. "How many people are
bigoted in one way or the other in this league?" Cuban
asked. "I dont know. But you find one, all of a sudden
you say well, you cant play favourites being racist
against African-Americans. Where do you draw the line?"
Asked if the league would be better off without Sterling
as an owner, Cuban said, "At this point, yes." "But that
has nothing to do with the rules that we have to live
by," Cuban said. "Theres a lot of things I dont agree
with that by letter and rule of law has to happen anyway.
When you live in a country of laws, you want to support
there are laws." Cuban noted that he recently fought the
Securities and Exchange Commission over claims that he
broke laws on insider trading. And he has remained
outspoken against the SEC since he won the civil lawsuit
the agency filed against him over the sale of his shares
in an Internet company. "Yet I still support the rule of
law," Cuban said. "Theres a reason why we have a (league)
constitution. Its worked for 50, however many years. It
will continue to work."
