Steve Ballmer gave Ramona Shelburne an exclusive in-studio interview on Thursday that was supposed to air on the 11 p.m. ET SportsCenter, but got bumped to ESPN2 because the U.S. Open ran long.
During the interview Ballmer maintained his and the Clippers' innocence in regards to the Pablo Torre Finds Out report that Los Angeles had circumvented the salary cap thanks to a four-year, $28 million deal between Kawhi Leonard and one of the team's corporate sponsors which the owner had also invested $50 million in.
