RE: A forced sale will not result in “market value.”
It is ILLEGAL to force someone to sell his property at a loss.
The LAW is on Sterling’s side. Neither the NBA nor Magic Johnson can buy the team for LESS than what it is currently worth.
Sure, they can pressure Sterling to sell, but they CANNOT force him to sell it at less that what it’s worth.
In defense of the "Market Value" issue:
It will be "Market Value" or off to court for Sterling and the NBA. He would be a fool not to go to court.
Equally probable is the sale at a premium to avoid a long and possibly losing court battle by the NBA. Certain bad publicity. Highly possible bad result. Is that worth the risk? I doubt it. The other owners will loan in the necessary money to get this over quickly. To me that means a premium for Sterling.
