How would that work, exactly?

Not show up for games and violate their contracts?

Play terrible games and lose TV ad revenue for themselves as well as the Clippers?

The only option would be a lockout to oust Sterling, which no owner would permit.

Players, black players and their sympathizers in the league may not necessarily go on strike, but use the same tactics that members of police unions exercise when lots of members have the Blue Flu.

Five of six star players on each team would claim to be sick and not play in a game. National network games with no star players would be a big revenue hit for the networks and the networks would push Sterling out.
