It woke BS they never told you the woman's name who was involved with the head coach of the Boston Celtics the Celtics organization protected her and put coach edoka on blast you reap what you sow 🐖 oink oink😅
It’s so weird how they are somehow making this about how an adulterer and workplace creeep was somehow the victim. Wtf lol
You SHOULDN'T make a reaction based on playoff performance, but objectively speaking, Mazulla needs to be fired for this performance. This is one of the most pathetic showings for a finals contender EVER.
Brad Steve's was trash when they lost to LeBron. He's the reason they lost. That Celtics team was younger, but they were a better team then. He had them run iso plays the entire series, no ball movement, and trash personnel rotations.
Stephen A must be a sexually harassing deviant like Udoka himself. Otherwise, why would he keep defending him? We know he’s a race baiter, but perhaps he is a sexual pervert too?
Thank you to Stephen A for bringing up Nia Long, who was the biggest victim in all of this for something she didn't have anything to do with nor should have had her name attached.
Dem boys in a race to get to Dem yachts
Perkins Celtics ONLY wrnt to the finals because Jimmy missed a 3 pt shot, and Miami is a better team that also went to the finals 3 years ago.
Brad Stevens vouched for Mazzula. Change might be needed. They need a real tough good player. Smart is annoying, Tatum only seems care about his brand and Jaylen is tired of this team. Horford is old. Grant Williams is a big mouth.
it’s absolutely crazy that buddy’s wife wanting to get her back beat in really cost them boys a ring
How will that solve anything? The organization put itself in this situation by listening to Molly and Malika and all the others acting like Ime had an affair with himself. THEY reported it was consensual, THEY suspended him, THEY let him go for nothing, etc. I don't like 'he was wrong' how about 'they were wrong' because they reported it was on both sides. But who cares they did this to themselves…
No you need water lmao
7:13 what does he call her here?😂
So the secret is to keep water away from Molly so she cant talk….got it! 😂

Yes the celtics should break up tatum and brown and the coach
Great point about Udoka as he held them accountable and they played hard under him in the 2d half of the season And you would've NEVER heard smart or any of them call out Udoka the way he did mazulla a couple weeks ago. But you cant blame mazulla 100% because tatum, brown, and smart have been in the league 6,7, and 9 years respectively. And as a trio have gone to 4 conference finals. NO EXCUSES. This team is too talented and too experienced to play this way. But they don't want it so if they like it, I love it…..*shrugs*
Not taking away from anything that was said a lot of facts was spoken. But ONCE AGAIN it’s NEVER about what the Miami heat did But EVERYTHING about what the other team DIDNT DO. At this point it’s getting old As fuck for once FOR ONCE!! Can we just have ONE SEGMENT of str8 love for the Miami heat & what they’re doing, Like WTF!🤦🏿♂️
Ion think he should be fire he just started damn regular season really mean nothing , u can go #1 as a rookie coach n the season and u do bad one your first mfs won’t you fired so who can do better as a coach for the Celtics
Coach Udoka should be the person to blame for embarrassing his wife and kids he did what he did!!!! What if was Nia Brown instead of Nia Long???… SAS is trolling!!!
Side note: one thing is clear – the Heat should look to trade Herro and Robinson next season. They are good players who are not needed anymore. The Heat should upgrade its bigs to help Bam. Two guys to consider: Kristaps Porzingis and Myles Turner.
Then don’t come out saying “ I’m him” cause you’re not that guy pal.
Stephen A. speaking the gospel. I have no remorse for an organization like the Celtics that treated Ime and Nia like garbage. I am not condoning what he did but precedence illustrated that they way they went about it was wrong and now karma is back to bite them.
They shouldn't of fired udoka and for gave him anf if the Celtics is so much Christian organization or ever values they have and that ceo or president of Celtics should of put a leash on his wife screwing and lusting after players employed there
Joe made the worst comment a head coach can make. He said he “didn’t have them ready to play”….really? Eastern conference finals you say that? That is begging to be fired right there.
Why hasn't Boston's head coach changed his starting line-up if Jalen Brown, Jason Tatum, and Marcus Smart aren't playing at the NBA proper level(s) like Head coach Marvin Ham did for Los Angeles?
They should replace him with Nurse.
We need Dave Lovell as our coach in Boston. He'll bring the fire out of all of them
I guess that's the problem… the Celtics have morals…. that brings me to perkins how is he still on espn
