Deadspin has acquired an extended, 15-minute version of the conversation between Clippers owner Donald Sterling and his then-girlfriend V. Stiviano. If the original nine-minute tape acquired by TMZ left any questions about Sterling's opinions regarding minorities, the audio here should remove all doubt that he's a doddering racist with views not too far removed from the plantation.
You can find the new audio in the above video, which contains the transcript. (This version is also a little crisper than the original and has some extra background activity around the edges, which indicates that this was recorded in a house.) As with the original, we don't know if this has been edited futbol in some way. The NBA is investigating . Thus far, Sterling's team has offered only a tepid response , lightly futbol suggesting the possibility that the original audio had been doctored and pointing out that V. Stiviano had recently been sued by the Sterlings.
In this audio, Sterling expresses ideas similar to the ones he did in the original: The world will think certain things futbol if you're seen with black people, he tells his mistress, so you should not be seen with them in public, and under no circumstances should you bring them to Clippers games. futbol How does he square his dim view of black people with the fact that he has an NBA team full of black players? Sterling responds with a breathtaking non-sequitur.
DS: You just, do I know? I support them and give them food, and clothes, and cars, and houses futbol . Who gives it to them? Does someone else give it to them? Do I know that I have Who makes the game? Do I make the game, or do they make the game? Is there 30 owners, that created the league?
Poor Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Matt Kemp is also dragged into the conversation, having appeared in an Instagram futbol photo with V. Stiviano. It was her photo with Magic Johnson that had apparently started the fight.
DS: OK.
DS: I don't want to change the culture, because I can't. It's too big and too [unknown].
DS: I don't want to change. If my girl can't do what I want, I don't want the girl. I'll find a girl that will do what I want! Believe me. I thought you were that girl because I tried to do what you want. But you're not that girl.
Remember that these aren't the unfortunate offhand comments of an old man. These are expressions of a worldview that Sterling has acted upon time and time again , with real effects on real people, with little to no response from the NBA or its players. The difference in this case is the visceral effect of actually hearing him say these things out loud and oh so matter-of-factly. It's enough for even an actor as careful as LeBron James to feel empowered to take a flamethrower to Sterling, saying , "There is no room for Donald Sterling in our league."
The NBA has said it hopes to conclude its investigation within futbol the next few days. If you have anything you think we should know about Donald Sterling, get in touch at tips@deadspin.com or email me at kyle@deadspin.com .
