Not alternating because we aren't picking from 5 games. You can pick any 5 you want.

What I mean by alternating is showing your picks first. You can choose any games. I just thought 5 a week was good. But I also agree to an "average" of 5 a week.

That is fine.

Alright so the rules...

1) $2,000 given to BAS (if he agrees) by 8/15/2014
2) An average of 5 picks per week. A minimum of 50 picks throughout the season (because of weeks where they have like 1 game or something)
3) Using the LVH spreads
4) Alternating picks
5) Only regular season games

Additional rules
6) Last 3 weeks of the season the person in the lead cannot pick more than 2 of the same teams that the loser picks if the loser picks first. They can pick opposite teams though
7) BAS, I trust him completely, but he has to agree that my name and information remain completely confidential to everyone including you.

* This is just a discussion, I am not fully committing to a bet. But will discuss further.

Actually no, Adam Silver has done #1 and #2. #3 has yet to happen, which is why we are waiting for the owners to vote.

It doesn't matter if the owners voted. The legal strategy, which refutes your comically dumb assertion, is moving forward.

It has already happened (as the guy who teachers at Rutgers pointed out) Yet you can't admit you are wrong.

Of course you can't do so because then it would mean that you should examine all the other dumb shit you've said on this topic, and you wouldn't want that.

"It's definitely not the forefront of what I'm thinking about, but I will say it appears as though this will be a long process and things will be in flux for a while," Redick said. "I can't imagine a scenario where we start the season next year and he's the owner and all is kosher. He may be the owner when we start the season, but I would imagine that there will be some legal proceedings ongoing if that's the scenario."

I'm guessing his opinion is based on info from the league/union.

I'm rarely wrong about real world activities. I'm objective and do not base my opinion on "what I believe".

Actually, you comically asserted that Sterling's lawyers would tell him to sell.

They have already made it clear he has no intention of selling.

Further, you have no real world experience that is remotely relevant - you have not gone to law school, you've never run a business, bought a business, sold a business - so the suggestion that you know anything about "real world activities" here is utterly preposterous.

Yea, it's moving forward on Silver's actions against him. There is nothing about what he'll do if the owners vote his ass out. Completely different scenarios. Adam Silver is the Commissioner and has different rules than the owners. The fact I have to tell that to you is mind boggling. You have no evidence that Sterling will sue the NBA if the owners vote his ass to sell. There is nothing in the Constitution that says the Commissioner can do whatever he wants and ban people for life. There is however direct verbiage that gives the owners the right to force Sterling out of the Association. Sterling probably thinks the owners will not vote him out and that he is going to fight Silver's choice to ban him for life.

You are really dumb. Like your knowledge of basic math, statistics, and financial concepts that even high school kids know. Embarrassing. You have the day off from Taco Bell today?

It doesn't matter what his intentions are. He will lose the owners vote, they will give control of the Clippers to the Commissioner. He might sue and lose at that point... but there is really nothing he can do if the owners vote him out. You have problems with very basic concepts, so something this complex... way out of your league. You would be better off discussing where Spongebob poops.

Yea, and his lawyers will tell him if you fight you will lose, your best option is to sell.

Donald Sterling's lawyers have already shown they intend to fight the sale of the team in court.

Which is why 2 law professors have said so.

Note that the "intentions" directly refute your dumbass claim and the rest of this has nothing to do with the fact that Donald Sterling's lawyers did not tell him "he will lose" as they prepare to litigate the matter.

It is actually all the same scenario, which is why the 2 law professors are saying Sterling is planning to sue to fight the sale of the team.

This has been pointed out to you 10 times and you abjectly refuse to admit you were wrong.

Why you refuse to do so is quite clear.

Uh, you don't have to "tell me that" as the sentence had nothing to do with anything.

You can't read. You are so effing dumb you can't comprehend the sentences.

Uh, you said he won't sue.

Further, you have made at least 10 posts here saying this isn't "complex" at all.

You are a comical idiot.

I realize pointing out these facts - including the fact that you don't have 6 months pay in the bank because you're a low income joke - hurt, but you may want to stop your dipshit blubbering and let the facts play out.

Your idiotic boasting "this isn't complex!" "this is complex!" is embarrassing.

Disagree... I think it will be very easy. His business is part of an Association. If the other 29 owners in the Association want his out, there is no court in America that will prevent that. He signed the document man, the wording is clear cut. The wording on how much power the Commissioner has is not though. So I have no clue if he has a case over his $2.5 million fine and lifetime ban. But the wording on the owners is game over for Sterling if they vote him out.

Hilarious.

"Complex"

Remember

This will be quick and easy for the NBA.

3/4's owners vote, which they have, a Constitution that NBA lawyers can use, plus other financial measures to force him out. Pretty much it's a done deal. He's gone regardless of how hard he fights.

Not complicated at all. It probably won't even go to court. The NBA will get him out and quickly.

You can't make this level of stupid up.

I guess we will see AK. I am not as confident as you are that its a slam dunk. Remember that he isn't gonna get 100% of the owners voting him out (at least I doubt it) and he never said anything publicly which he is accused of. This can be a dangerous precedent for future owners. A slippery slope where anyone can simply accuse someone of saying something and you lose your team? This was a private conversation. We will see.

Remember, this is so complex, except when it is "very easy" and "straight forward" and "not complicated at all"
