I am a C fan but they did Ime dirty with that one sided bs suspension. I am glad he's getting a job with the Nets. Smh.
You have my applause once again Stephen A. 👏 👏 I salute you sir
Woj loves the word “OUSTED” 😂
Thank you Steven A
Definitely agree with Stephen
I’m with SAS…I don’t care. If Nets want Udoka I’m fine with it
It doesn't matter if Udoka is a good coach or not, that team is uncoachable. Like Wilbon said, if they have a no shame, they might as well go get Bridges and Primo too 😆 🤣
Ime deserves a second chance for crying out loud , you might think he killed someone
What people don't understand is that the policy that Ime broke for the Celtics, every other team has them as well. That's why it's hypocritical to hire him.
incredible "basketball" Pedigree.. slick…
So this father of three discovers his wife is having an affair with the Celtics Head Coach. The Husband, who is also a subcontractor of the Celtics, goes to the Front Office of the Organization and notifies them of the affair. The Celtics hire outside investigators, who learn Emei Udoka, also had (or is having) an affair with a Celtics minority owners' wife too. The latter of which is not released to media or public, whatsoever. The Celtics suspend Udoka for a year, citing violations of company policies, which the Celtics also chose to exempt the employee from the very same policy. Media & public opinion slanders Udoka, with terms like "predatory behavior" but do not question the fact that many women are just as predatory in their behavior, especially when immunity favors them. The only repercussions those predators have, are the potential loss of their spouses" but not the public outing/shaming Udoka, is left to endure along with his suspension. Udoka doesn't deserve a pat on the back, but also doesn't deserve any further incrimination, since solely enduring such morality biased discrimination, by the Celtics, the Public, and the Media.
SA once again the common sense voice on the screen.
They trippin, we’re talking about basketball…ime is obviously a great coach, stop it. I hate how ppl try to make they own narrative
Stephen A got to go. He is fired!
'Do you kiss ur mother with the mouth'? You are fired! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Love Steven A rebuttal
Stephen A. Kudos from Africa. You’re from Africa. ❤
They are desperate whores right now.
Its crazy he was the assistant coach at nets before he went to celtics
I agree with stephen A despert times calls for desperate measures, Ime Udoka is pretty good coach despite of the other distraction
Just hire Quin Zynder!!!! He's also an elite coach!!!
I like it Stephen A. I do. You showed me something there big fella.
ESPN should support the reperations rally this weekend instead of going after kyrie for apologie so bad Jalen Steven willbon y'all getting
Is S A Smith saying "shut up Michael Wilbon. it is time to shut up, hire Ime Udoka and play ball. That is all that matters. By the way, don't forget to give Kyrie his 300 million dollars. Knicks first. New York always"
Why do you even ask Wilbon anything about the Nets. This guy has to be the biggest hater of this team hands down. Move on
Crazy how they suspended the most controversial player, and now trying to get the most controversial coach 😂 jokes aside I hope Udoka can turn it around.
100% agree with Stephen A.
Ime deserve a chance to coach an elite team like the nets given his record on the court so far
Nets got nothing right since they went to Brooklyn
Every word out of SAS mouth is racist
Wilbaun, is right. The Nets need a leader of men, and you're bringing in someone who doesn't even follow team rules and was fired over it? Yup, the Nets are doubling down on stupid.
Wow these guys talk like they perfect
I’m with Stephen A on this one. They talk like if the man killed someone. As far as we know from the report, he violated an organization policy. That’s it. Why can’t he go somewhere else? By that logic if anyone does something wrong in their workplace, then, they can’t work anywhere else?
Stephan a is a sell out micheal Wilbon old school
Mike Wilbon is an idiot
Mike Wilbon should be ashamed of himself, really sold out
I finally agree with SAS lol Michael stop pocket watching and hating my guy. He did what he did in Boston. He paid the price. Like SAS said did he commit a crime? No. If he can coach let him coach.
"KATHLEEN NIMMO LYNCH – a devout Mormon and mother of 3 – is the Celtic's employee in question..
Everyone claiming he does or doesn’t deserve a second chance when none of us actually know what happened bc the reports were so cryptic
I like how SAS has handled this udoka issue from the go. He's stood by his word despite it not being a popular opinion. Ime did not commit a crime. Perhaps what he did was immoral but it wasn't a crime. It's ridiculous hoe much he's being blackballed by the NBA media. Americans trying to take the moral ground on issues when they're morally bankrupt themselves. Shame.
If Udoka is WHITE, Stephen A Smith would be BITCHING about it non stop.
Boooo to Wilbon forever
I feel like Udoka finna pull some bs 😂 ain't no way this ends up good its the nets
I agree with SAS just caz i you had relations with women who agreed does is not supposed to get you fired. Things happen we are all adults. Any that is celtic prob so we move gentlemen.
Consensual is the keyword here for me. Until I hear the whole story I say IME should be able to move on as well. The lady who committed the same offense is somehow being protected but Ime is the sole bad adult in all of this just stinks. Not condoning his actions but the Celtics can't have it both ways
