Businessman and Los Angeles Clippers owner Steve Ballmer is known for his passionate outbursts in all spheres of his life, including the success of his team. So after last night’s incredibly exciting buzzer-beating game-winning shot by the Clippers’ Chris Paul, he Ballmered out all over the place – surprising no one, but delighting everyone (except for Spurs fans).
You can’t really blame Steve Ballmer for reacting as he did. Even fans who don’t have any financial interest in the LA Clippers were probably losing their minds after Chris Paul took the game away from the Spurs with just a single second left to go on the clock. Given the circumstances, I’m actually surprised that Ballmer didn’t grow a few feet, turn green, and tear the entire stadium apart with his bare hands.
You can watch Chris Paul’s game-winning shot, and Steve Ballmer’s (along with a bunch of his fellow Clippers fans) rapturous reaction below. Ballmer comes in around the 35-second mark.
Here’s the video:

Big victory for the team that Donald Sterling built, but was not allowed to keep, because he said some minor things about race that would not have batted an eye had he been Black.
He’s a little “light in the loafers” there. Maybe he should go run Apple.
LOL! :)
He’s a billionaire, you know. :)
Balmer was one of five billionaires who each ponied up millions to pass draconian new gun control laws in Washington State.
Screw him and his stupid basketball team. I hope they lose.

Microsoft was large enough to bleed a while, but SB was a disaster.
LOL, I guess the clippers are coming into their own. We’ve been watching that new show “The Comedians” and Billy Crystal and his friends are psycho clippers fans.
I thought “LA Clippers” was a hair salon.
One thing about Steve he is one emotional dude
I don’t mind that from owner very passionate
