    For me to go there?! You're the one that falsely claims I'm "cosigning to a creep". You're a clown. I think Ime is a great coach for us and somehow you've twisted that into something else. It's disturbing but par for the course when people don't have strong points and prefer to cry about KPJ at every turn.

    Take it how you want you're the emotional one. I dont value cheaters and men who cant control themselves enough to honor their relationship as much as you do apparently.

    Cry about KPJ at every turn? LMAO. Go on - just before that you had my curiosity, but now you have my attention! Maybe you can make a cool gif about it!

    Haha nice try dude I'm not going on some wild goose chase with you.

    I know your archetype too, you're just going to bring up a story or ask for infinite sources.

    Again, let me know if you're actually willing to lose something if you're proven wrong.

    I was hoping for something more original -- you couldnt power up the old photoshop and at least put my Avi over the face??? Color me disappointed. Oh well let me go see how I can bring up KPJ in a random thread - good luck with Ime "pal" hope he makes you proud!

    Ethics should always matter in any facet of life, but that's just my opinion.

    Dude, if that were the case, there'd be no hiding it anyway.

    In terms of who is gonna command the locker room, get by-in from our young guys, and hold people accountable, Udoka is the choice. We are desperate for culture changer. I’m not sure Vogel could do that as well as Udoka.

    Life isn’t a fairy tale or Disney movie.

    People cheat.

    As long as the sex was consensual this isn’t a big deal.

    I'm hoping today had more to do with the Rockets convincing Ime why Houston would be a perfect reclamation destination for him. People deserve second chances and Udoka checks all the right boxes in every other aspect and regard. I think most can see that aside from a few that can't help but conflate his past transgressions when considering him as our next coaching hire.

    I am not saying she is a stunning beauty, but she certainly looks better in the picture I posted IMO.



    When I say he has never had problems juggling multiple women, I am not saying he is perfect at it - I mean that has been his style for a long time. I remember when he was still playing and had that reputation and I would hear stories from dancers, bartenders, etc. So I was not entirely shocked that he was doing the same in Boston.

    I would point out though that there are a lot of players (especially older players) do the same thing and some of those guys are on staffs or are currently head coaches. There is no way that some of them are not still doing what Udoka did.

    There is no way to know if he is or is not sorry because he hasn't commented on it much at all - and I suspect that is because the mother of his son doesn't want him to. She has complained several times about the attention getting to her son.

    Does he think he did anything wrong? Probably, he hurt his kid and lost his long term girlfriend from it. Is he as sorry as someone else would be? I doubt it, he has been active for a long time.

    I don't really care if he is sorry, all I care is that he learned his lesson not to mix his personal and professional life -and he paid a really big price, so it is possible that he has.

    I don't know if Nia was onboard as much as she tolerated it. That is between her and him though.

    If I have two equal candidates, then no I will not hire him - but I don't think the other candidates are as good

    Nurse is under contract with the Raptors.

    We don't know if he will or will not do it again.

    Why do I think he will not do it again? This is the first time he has had to really face the consequences and he certainly has paid a heavy price. He is also not in his 20's. He is older, and he has worked for over a decade to be a head coach and he lost it - he lost his long term GF and he hurt his kid.

    Also, it isn't like there is some wonderful coach the Rockets are passing on.

    How are women treated unfairly?

    The woman cheated on her husband with Udoka as well.

    It clearly wasn’t a big deal to her either lol.

    Did we hire him yet?

    Did Tilman take him out to Landry’s or Bubba Gump’s? What did they order?

    well obviously people would care if it was their own wife/gf but it is not.

    and if you're a guy and your girl is cheating on you then automatically that means you arent hitting it right. Even if you were hittin it right but werent there on the emotional side, she'd have a male friend to do that with. I say that to say this cheating sitaution on the celtics was a two way street. this isnt a weinstein rape thing. hence why the nets (and probably other teams) were interested in Ime so quick after the Celtics fired him.

    Ime will be able to do his job and guarantee you the players will respect him a lot just based off comments from former players he coached. People basically dont want him because of their own morals which I get but on the basketball side, he has it so far
