Are the Clippers Finished?

The SEC is now probing the Los Angeles Clippers. Woh, this is getting really big:

Steve Ballmer Penalised

Oh no, the Los Angeles Clippers are set to remain complete losers for the foreseeable future. Majority team owner, Steve Ballmer, has been suspended from all operations for one entire year. 

Here's the law firm report summarising their independent investigation: https://www.wlrk.com/docs/Report_of_Independent_Investigators_Concerning_the_LA_Clippers_and_Kawhi_Leonard.pdf

I think I can hear the Lakers laughing from here. Just sell the team Ballmer, you're never going to win anything. Ballmer, you are completely out of your depth.

"This was the biggest punishment ever handed out in the National Basketball Association. You know all of it at this point…This was a phenomenal level of incompetence from [Steve] Ballmer and the Clippers. They have screwed up almost a decade and a half of their franchise," Simmons said on The Ringer.

Los Angeles Clippers

Did Steve Ballmer make the worst investment in human history when he paid...wait for it...two billion dollars for the NBA's Los Angeles Clippers?

They've currently got; Paul George, Kawhi Leonard, Russell Westbrook and James Harden and they still cannot win games. 

Shut the franchise down.
