The deposed owner of the Los Angeles franchise reached an agreement to settle his lawsuit against the NBA on Friday. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Sterling's lawsuit alleged that the NBA engaged in a conspiracy that forced him to sell the club. That motion was dismissed by a federal judge in March, and while Sterling wanted to appeal that decision, his firm missed a deadline to file an opening brief in October.

this is so interesting. he accused them and it's thrown out and they still settled? So are they saying they did conspire to do it? im lost. why settle lol

Russell Westbrook has three 30/15/10 games this season, the most in the past 30 seasons.

He's played 14 games.

Damn those numbers seem ridiculous, guess I have no idea what the record is then

I don't feel like looking it up but my guess is that the records for points in a half and points in a game are both held by the Nuggets when Paul Westhead was coaching them. Either them or a team that played against them.

[shel311]

From what I can find, looks like Peay was correct, 107 points against the Nuggets in 1990.

Seems to be...Single team high was 107 by Phoenix versus Denver. Highest three combined were all versus Denver as well in 1990 - 174, 173, and 170 respectively. Time to look up Westhead's story

Kawhi Leonard is the only active player in the league to have more steals than fouls in his career
