CELTICS 2010

have no idea what a crude remark is

otoh, I could come up with five imaginary examples in less than five minutes.

If you're going to suspend him for an entire year, I think you just fire him, no?

seems like this is only headed in one direction. not sure why the celtics won’t just go ahead and fire him at this point

for the same reasons that have been true for the past week, they can't disclose what happened and are trying to let things cool down and come to a financial settlement before making it permanent.

the woj coverage of this story is so poisoned at this point, like obviously they had to give him something negative about ime for credability purposes but in no way is this about a "crude remark"

is there early any scuttlebutt about a permanent replacement assuming ime is dropped

idk i mean sports franchises fire coaches with 3+ years left on the contract all the time, im not sure how this is different. the celtics could afford to pay him whatever he’s owed so everyone can be done with this. this whole protracted news cycle to save a few million dollars firing him “for cause” feels cheapskatey if that’s really what’s going on

it's different because for even suspending him half of basketball media accused the celtics of looking for an excuse to engage in some racism

this is the basic story thats been going around

Heard some things about Ime Udoka situation from friend at NBA league office. We’ll see what’s real when the news drops:

Udoka and Nia Long are in an open relationship and he is a “serial offender” with the ladies wherever he coached.

In Boston he slept with team staffer (1/4)

im watching boston celtics basketball

current lineup jayson tatum tallest player

they will win the nba playoffs

Team told him to chill but he kept doing whatever and then slept with a Celtics minority owners wife.

Definitely the worst play he ever drew up

smart-brogdon-white weirdly three variations on the same guy

its like how the patriots always have multiple small white slot receivers

brogdon seems like he can help with the celtics playmaking issues

smart has high playmaking iq but doesnt possess brogdons ability to put pressure on the defense and force the issue so to speak

Definitely the worst play he ever drew up

guys got some sort of issue, committing an im sure fireable breaking of the rules being asked nicely to stop and then just not stopping, cant even be bothered to fuck around outside work download an app or whatever, if the storys true

did notice that none of the players when asked about the situation professed any sort of fondness for him they were all just like what the hell just happened

pretty weird. i do wonder how deep nba teams try to dig when they're hiring coaches. like if any of that is true, what did brad and co. know last year and what only came up during investigation this summer?

this is interesting, obv it's hard to look back at last season now with all this new info but i wonder if his relationship with the players was always more respectful co-workers than someone they had truly bonded with or admired? maybe he just wasn't here long enough to have that kind of impact.

Could be also if he was being that risky about his behavior it was also going around the clubhouse as distracting rumors or maybe even as all but confirmed fact, and I don’t doubt it would have not been viewed as like “wow coach is cool” and more like, this guy’s been telling us to focus on one goal and meanwhile he’s out there creeping on ladies connected to the organization and risking a major scandal while we’re on the brink of something great here. I know it was off-season allegedly but who knows.

yeah that definitely could be the case; nba teams don't seem like very big organizations and my guess would be that keeping secrets is hard

looking svelte blake!

we salute u dennis

the perfect time for the perfect gesture totally makes sense all around

gotta think this is his last stop. i thought he would have a better post prime arc but the injuries were just too bad i guess. he figured out a passable outside shot and was always a good passer but no moves and being a (bad kind of) tweener on defense makes him unplayable for the most part.

maybe he can soak up some minutes in between injuries or whatever who knows

in theory he does have the body/skillset to be a 12-15 mpg small ball 5. he was the nets best defender on giannis two years ago, but maybe that person is already gone. the nets needed any warm body vs boston and he couldn't get off the bench so it's prob wishful thinking.

giannis cooked him! he gave it a good effort tho

he won't give them anything in the playoffs but if he can soak up some regular season minutes it's a worthwhile signing

sam hauser is the new duncan robinson (when he could shoot)

preseason is all about finding a rhythm

look out payton

there is enough room for two sweet shooting whites on the celtics

payton is gonna have a hard time getting minutes with smart brogdon white in front of him tho

hauser on the other hand should get plenty of burn if he keeps hoisting good

payton will be ok. he'll will have continue to have an nba career as a role playing guy off the bench, but he may do it on three or four more teams before it's over.

yeah pretty much

Decided I was going to watch Celtic Pride, but unfortunately you have to rent it

lagoon can I borrow your Criterion Edition Blu-ray?

lol np

celtics need to get donte and pat connaughton then they will have the yin and yang of boston an italian guy and a irish guy

New: The #Celtics made a number of deals at last year's trade deadline and were very close to another one according to Donte DiVincenzo https://t.co/O6bkjpdd3s

— Brian Robb (@BrianTRobb) October 5, 2022

i’m surprised that actually got close given those teams had a pretty good chance of seeing each other in the playoffs.

bucks prob not too scared of donte

true, maybe it was a mutual sabotage attempt

celtics have made a lot of 3s this preseason, dont want to jump the gun but their roster does have more shooting this year, too bad gallo got died
