Magic Johnson responds to Donald Sterling to Anderson Cooper
By Mike Dyce
Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling, for the time being anyways, went on CNN in an interview with Anderson Cooper in an attempt to clear up the racist remarks controversy. What happened was Sterling digging himself in a hole further, including talking about Magic Johnson again.
It even compelled NBA Commissioner Adam Silver to once again apologize to Magic again in a statement released on Monday night, via CBS Sports.
“I just read a transcript of Donald Sterling’s interview with Anderson Cooper and while Magic Johnson doesn’t need me to, I feel compelled on behalf of the NBA family to apologize to him that he continues to be dragged into this situation and be degraded by such a malicious and personal attack. The NBA Board of Governors is continuing with its process to remove Mr. Sterling as expeditiously as possible.”
Well Magic has responded.
Magic tells Anderson Cooper "He's a man who's upset & he's reaching. He's trying to find something he can grab on to help him save his team"
