But does he value basketball like he values his company? I guarantee you he didn’t allow anybody to do that.“I guarantee you that Microsoft wasn’t running around trying to cheat the different levels of licenses that they had to get to become the company that they were,” Johnson said.He added, “I wonder how much he values sports, in a sense where ‘I can get away with this.’ And again, it’s come back to haunt him.”Maybe Johnson’s guess is correct, and Ballmer thought he wouldn’t get caught circumventing the NBA Salary Cap.At the end of the day, Ballmer failed to outsmart the NBA, as he and the Clippers have become the laughing-stock of the league right now.Read more:Michael Wilbon feels only Steve Ballmer’s suspension is a ‘big deal’ in the LA Clippers scandalBrian Windhorst says some NBA teams think LA Clippers were harshly punished over Kawhi Leonard dealStephen A.
