Imagine the highlight monopoly a team with Lebron James and Blake Griffin would have on the game of basketball. That may have been a fantasy of Los Angeles Clippers’ owner Donald Sterling a few years back; one that Lebron James quickly destroyed.
Before Lebron James the summer of 2010 “The Decision”, James was a free agent testing the NBA waters. In an interview with ESPN, multibillionaire music and film mogul David Geffen informed ESPN’s David Schapp that James informed him that the Clippers were one of his potential choices, if not for their owner being Sterling. Geffen did not explicitly state why James refused to play for Sterling, vaguely remarking, “the reasons are pretty clear.”
