4:17 am
>> reporter: when asked about negotiating, he answered not because of dignity or the embarrassment of a franchise to take action against me. the reason is the lakers signed a deal with waerns for $3 million and during all this i'm negotiating with fox, adding later, my wife can't run anything. she's beautiful and intelligent. i'm trying to generate as much success from my trust as i can. >> i think the one thing that comes across today is he's not mentally incapacitated. maybe indiscreet now and then but not mentally incapacitate and he's managing a $4 million empire. so he gets to be on top of the game. and he's trying to tell you the $2 billion is not a vast overpayment with television prices going up and up and up, the teams are all going to be worth more. >> reporter: better fields said the judge got a good look at dorld sterling.
