2022 NBA Offseason Thread: Preseason kicks off; Things are fine in Los Angeles, Draymond beats the charges

Na if everyone knew what it was already, one unwanted advance isn't what takes it from nothing to a year long suspension. Someone with power in that organization is mad.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

So the Celtics definitely should’ve just swept it under the rug, right? Private matter? Handled it wrong?

uh yes...they have handled it terribly

It’s not one unwanted advance. Team was fine with the consensual relationship and then told him to stop when they got word of the unwanted advance. He refused to stop. So they had to take it to the next level.

The organization isn’t willingly trying to get rid of the coach that everyone seems to like and just took the team to the Finals. He’s not giving them much choice from the potential legal repercussions he’s bringing on though.

Ime has no one to blame but himself.
Clearly he’s done in Boston.

For sure in Boston, but unless something else really bad comes out; if he says the right things going forward and keeps a low profile for a while, I think another NBA team will give him a job down the road. May have to do an assistant stint before he gets another HC job though.

I mean yah youd think, but it seem like the Celtics haven't gotten the memo yet.

Finally a media member willing to call out Presti on his nonsense. He reviews the entire press conference

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

It looks like they aren't revealing every last detail of the situation. And they're low key doing Ime a slight favor by disclosing that it was consensual. Ol girl fasho told her man a different story

 

[dacomeup]

I mean yah youd think, but it seem like the Celtics haven't gotten the memo yet.

They definitely got the memo. It’s their call

 

[lawdog1]

I think they have, but my guess is there’s a difference to them of millions of dollars between firing him and getting him to resign, so that’s why he’s been suspended and not fired. I don’t really blame them.

 

[Mark Antony]

Man shout out to the ladies that keep with the kegels and Benoit balls I guess.

Incredibly difficult concept for some.

if they really think this embarrassing odyssey is worth the however many millions of dollars on Ime's contract
to a what....3 billion dollar franchise?

I just think that is stupid, all money aint good money.

 

[DLF]

It’s kathleen

Spoiler

Poor kids.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

it's not a difficult concept.
I understand perfectly well.

it's just that the concept is just stupid.

Stay away from them white women, especially at your place of business. They know that if they wild out, no repracusions will come to them and there will always be a way out. They have their husbands and suddenly want to cheat with a black man? Sounds like she has a itch to scratch and if she gets caught up, she telling a different story and crying crocodile tears.

Lol you’re conflating valuation with profit. And what reach people do you know who willingly LOSE money? The reputational hit is far greater for Udoka than them.

 

[addict4sneakers]

Y’all getting osh’d

Right not to mention future potential coaches or free agents thinking twice about signing with a team that will put your business out there like that
