Undoubtedly the best thing for the Clippers will be getting rid of him, their renaissance this year was in spite of his ownership and not because of it. They have so much going for them this year and if they get a good respectable owner who's not cheap they could challenge the lakers for LA loyalty. Professional sports will be better without this clown.
