Holy shit...verdict is out: Clippers stripped of 5 first-round picks, Steve Ballmer fined $30M, and Kawhi pays $700k in restitution. 
I did NOT expect the NBA and that spineless ghost of a commissioner to come down that hard on that organization. 30 mil AND 5 first-round draft picks. That is just above a death sentence. Wow

30 million he will find under couch cushions, 750000 k for Leonard is even funnier.

Not saying otherwise. But if I'm a Clippers fan and my team just lost 5 first round draft picks, that is certainly a big deal

Salary Cap circumvention. Basically paid Kawai Leonard under the table and classified it under a different entity in order to pay him more without going against the cap

If the league didn’t address this it would be thunderdome. Balmer pretending to say he was duped by that company is embarrassing. Assuming Raptors pull plug on what was terrible trade for them to start.Quote Originally Posted by benhogan76: Quote Originally Posted by Im_Chasing: Holy shit...verdict is out: Clippers stripped of 5 first-round picks, Steve Ballmer fined $30M, and Kawhi pays $700k in restitution.

Adam Silver has never addressed anything in his entire tenure...Not sure why he started now. League is already in a world of hurt. I'm personally surprised by this based on precedent. I hate the NBA, don't get me wrong
