Golden State Warriors head coach Mark Jackson says that Clippers fans should take one course of action in order to send a message to allegedly racist Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling -- just don't show up to Game 5 --

"If it was me, I wouldn't come to the game," Jackson said Monday, via ESPN.com. "I believe as fans, the loudest statement they could make as far as fans is to not show up to the game."

Jackson made it clear that he wasn't just targeting Clippers fans with that advice -- he wants Warriors fans to join in a protest of absence as well --

"As an African-American man that's a fan of the game of basketball and knows its history and knows what's right and what's wrong, I would not come to the game tomorrow, whether I was a Clipper fan or a Warrior fan," he stated.

The NBA's investigation into a audio recording released by TMZ Sports which purportedly features Sterling denigrating the entire African-American community is still ongoing, with a definitive course of action expected from the league office on Tuesday.
