The text of the First Amendment:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

It doesn't mention the NBA. It doesn't say you can say anything you like without other people reacting to it. It certainly doesn't confer the right to own a basketball team. It only says *Congress* shall not infringe your rights to speech/religion/assembly etc. What has Congress done to Don Sterling?
