Banned Clippers owner Donald Sterling filed a 32-page document in response to the NBA and he’s not going down without a fight. Go figure. SMH. Hit the jump for details…
Via ESPN:
Donald Sterling’s lawyer, Max Blecher, told ESPN on Tuesday that his client “is going to fight to the bloody end” and has effectively “disavowed” the agreement he reached with his wife last week that would allow her to negotiate a sale of the team.
“I don’t know what agreement she has with him, but I’m saying to you today, he disavows anything she’s doing to sell the team,” Blecher said. “He says, ‘It’s my team, and I’ll sell it when and if I get around to it.'”
Asked why Sterling seems to have had a change of heart, Blecher said, “He was in a state of shock at first. Now he’s recovering and he’s much more feisty.”
