Magic Johnson Reportedly Interested in Buying the Clippers
Well, here’s an interesting new twist in the (alleged!) Donald Sterling
racist rant saga: Magic Johnson, the legendary former Laker who took the
picture with Sterling’s ex-girlfriend that sparked the awful, racist
comments Sterling made, is reportedly interested in purchasing the Clippers.

Magic Johnson被Yahoo!報導他有興趣買下快艇。
Magic Johnson and his billionaire backers, the Guggenheim Partners, want a
chance to purchase the Los Angeles Clippers, league sources told Yahoo Sports.

To bail themselves out of the NBA’s worst crisis of credibility since the Tim
Donaghy officiating scandal, the easy part for the NBA will be enlisting the
eagerness and financial muscle of Magic Johnson and Mark Walter of the
Guggenheim Partners – owners of the Los Angeles Dodgers.

For commissioner Adam Silver, the chance to turn the Clippers over to Magic
Johnson and his partners is the best possible of solutions. Exit Sterling,
enter Magic. It would be the greatest trade in sports ownership history since,
well, Magic for the McCourts, with the Dodgers.
對於Adam Silver來說,把快艇轉給魔術跟他的夥伴是最可行的解決方法。貶了Sterling
迎接Magic,會成為運動史上自Magic從McCourts接收道奇以來最好的擁有人交易。
[...] Make no mistake: Magic’s Dodgers group is angling for a Southern
California sports empire. Magic Johnson and Guggenheim had been aggressive in
pursuing a purchase of the Los Angeles Lakers – only to have the Buss family
make clear to them the franchise isn’t for sale, sources told Yahoo Sports.
Nevertheless, this is business and Magic’s willing to change colors and make
himself a Clipper. Between the Dodgers and Clippers, Magic Johnson could be
the face of two championship contenders.
[...] 別誤會:魔術的道奇正在努力成為南加州運動界的帝國。魔術和他的合夥積極的在
追求湖人,但巴斯家族明白的說不賣,消息來源告訴Yahoo!。然而,這筆交易即將讓魔術
變成快艇人。魔術將會因為道奇和快艇,成為兩聯盟的冠軍爭奪者。
Magic could have it all.
魔術可能會拿到他要的
“This is 100 percent Magic’s plan,” a league official intimately involved
in the buying and selling of franchises told Yahoo Sports.
