No Taxes If Sterling Is Forced to Sell

Still doesn’t get us around family dynamics and if they want to sell, and the attorney involvement in all this has got to be immense. IMHO I ask again, is Lebron that clueless?
But only if Sterling turns around and invests the proceeds in a similar property. So he'd have to buy another sports team. And I don't see the owners in any other league approving his buying a team.
