I think he was frustrated with and said those things. He is no more racist than most. The NBA wil just use him for their purposes, A few on this forum seem to be angry becasue Sterling is super rich, that is sad.

Use of the "N" word is not a litmus test for racism.
Antebellum masters had relations with female slaves. Knowing this, would you argue that slave owners weren't racist?
I think you're being a little superficial in your evaluation.
I'm wondering how many of those slave owners, however, were 'sharing' their slave/concubine with the field worker(s). This particular case of Sterling's take on things is, IMO, bizarre. His list of what is and isn't OK for her to do, along with what he is doing, defies my ability to figure out whether he is more racist or senile or has an addiction problem.
(there are just so many angles to this mess that induce revulsion, erf)
