Lol, when two individuals come to an agreement on a price... it is sold. It can be pending hurdles or hoops, but it is also sold. You can also use sold in a more formal context when the final closing papers are signed and the deal is official. But when you agree with someone on a price a sale has been made an the item is no longer for sale, it can be considered sold. This is all semantics, the fact you guys don't understand this even after posting multiple journalists across the Internet using the term sold... it's not surprising. You guys are pretty simple minded.
Shelly Sterling advised the NBA last night that an agreement had been reached with Steve Ballmer, and the NBA Advisory/Finance Committee met via conference call this morning to discuss these developments. We await the submission of necessary documentation from Mrs. Sterling.In the meantime, the June 3 special meeting of the NBA Board of Governors remains as scheduled."

What a liar and a goof
Of course this is all a distraction from the fact that all the written predictions by the troll remain 100% incorrect.

I guess the NBA just doesn't know as much about this as you...
So does the NBA

Except the comments about Sterling's lawyers.
You're in pathetic full troll mode now.
Hahaha, don't worry about my personal life. And you guys literally have no clue what you are talking about. Sold can be used in different contexts.
LOL, your personal life consists of posting on the RX. Period. What else is there to know? If you think a business or house or whatever is sold when two parties simply agree, you are in need of some life help.
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha!!! I didn't even have to wait for the weekend for this comedy gold. What a great start... lmao!!!
The NBA has canceled its hearing to consider Donald Sterling's ownership of the Los Angeles Clippers, saying the team will be sold to Steve Ballmer.
The league says in a statement that it has resolved its dispute over the franchise's ownership with Shelly Sterling and the Sterling Family Trust. They agreed to sell the franchise to Ballmer on Thursday for $2 billion.
According to a statement Friday, Shelly Sterling and the Trust "also agreed not to sue the NBA and to indemnify the NBA against lawsuits from others, including from Donald Sterling."
With that, "the NBA will withdraw its pending charge to terminate the Sterlings' ownership of the team."
The NBA had charged Donald Sterling with damaging the league by making racist comments and planned the hearing for Tuesday, where league owners could have terminated his ownership — and Shelly's as well.

BUT, yet he IS suing the NBA after this article was written
I never argued they wouldn't sell, nor did anyone else really...just that it wouldn't be fast. Still waiting on that verdict
I am going to have to agree with Akp here..... it seems pretty clear the Clippers will be sold at this point. I believed he would fight this to the end..... but I put too much faith in our legal system. I was not aware that our system had degraded to the point that expressing unpopular opinions in a private conversation could lead to you being declared mentally incompetent and stripped of your assets. That is some real old style Stalinist shit that I did not expect.
But for whatever reason Akp's predictions about how this would play out seem to have been correct. I disagree with his reasoning...... but regardless events proved him right in this case.
