NBA is not involved yet. They have not seen the report. There is no reason for them to get involved. He made it clear the NBA is going to wait for the details. That seems perfectly reasonable on the NBA's part. You can't launch an investigation without the detailed report to know what you are investigating.
He is Laker friendly.
Yeah but that wouldn't really concern me. We (Phoenix fans) have some real issues with the LA Lakers but we're mostly an afterthought to them.
If they have a female partial owner, on record, accusing Sarver of sexual harassment... he is toast.
Yeah, the harassment stuff never surprises with any rich entitled person. But under Sarver I would imagine we've been one of the most diverse hiring teams in the league, 2 black GMs, several black head coaches, he and Fitz are really close... that would surprise. I'd hope they have something serious to back up that allegation.
If I was Chris Paul I would have my phone ringer on silent. I bet his phone is blowing up right now. When the story drops, Sarver's side will want Paul to minimize it, Paul will also be under pressure from everyone else for his opinion.
Yes, but his protests were a stronger stance against racism than the “I have a lot of black friends” defense typically deployed by some white people.
If he's guilty and if this rids us of Sarver, I'd say the price we'll have to pay is worth it. But it's not going to be pretty.
