Donald Sterling and Oklahoma City Prove Too Much for Clippers

The Clippers are out of the NBA West Finals, and not without controversy, "Clippers can't shoulder the weight, falling in Game 6 to Thunder."

Here's Bill Plaschke's column on Doc Rivers' Game 5 meltdown, "Clippers' Doc Rivers goes from voice of reason to loud distraction." (Added: "Doc Rivers calls out officials after Clippers' agonizing Game 5 loss.")

And here the series-deciding (in Rivers' interpretation) final minute of Game 5, where the Clippers blew a 7-point lead with 49 seconds to play. Unreal:



More from Plaschke, "Clippers are gone from the postseason, but it all won't be forgotten."

And on the liberal racism front, "Donald Sterling is refusing to pay $2.5-million fine, reports say." And at Sports Illustrated, "Sources: Donald Sterling refuses NBA sanctions, threatens to sue."
