07:20 AM ET 08.06 | The Mike Dunleavy-Clippers soap opera will likely see its last episodes played out in the courtroom. Finger-pointing. Allegations of fraudulent inducement. ... The latest curious twist in the battle between the Clippers and owner Donald Sterling and the team's former coach-general manager took a wild turn last week when the Clippers, trying to halt Dunleavy's arbitration claim, alleged that Dunleavy fraudulently induced the Clippers into entering an employment agreement. Dunleavy's lawyer, in an interview with The Times on Thursday, said the lawsuit does not pass "the laugh test." The Clippers quit paying Dunleavy when they fired him as general manager in March and he is owed $6.75 million on the remainder of his contract.

The NBA need to Fine $$$ Donald Sterling big time for this JOKE of a Lawsuit...alleged that Dunleavy fraudulently induced the Clippers into entering an employment agreement...gee Dunleavy came to the Clips back in 2003....even a blind man could see that last season the #1 pick Blake Griffin, did not PLAY.....maybe the Judge should order a competency hearing for Mr. Sterling, to find out IF (we know he not) fit to own a NBA team....got to feel for cousin Vinny.

How do you fraudulently induce someone into an employment agreement? "Well we didn't really want to hire you, but your winning smile and rapier wit just overwhelmed us."

You can call Sterling many things but he is laughing all the way to the bank. His goal is not to put together a winning franchise. His goal is to maximize his income and investment. I wonder how much the Clippers are worth?

if you think the happy dance by MLB was something when Tom Hicks was gone, you should see what the NBA has in store when Don Sterling decides to move along.

First...Fraudulent Inducement? Even if it so...it took you SEVEN years to realize you hired Mike Dunleavy instead of Phil Jackson? You should lose the case simply on the grounds of Negligent Stupidity.
Second...Tony Soprano coached an NBA team? I watched every season of that show, and I don't remember anything about basketball.
