    Does he have a drinking problem?

    Nets' season off to a fine start.

    Has a coach ever been hit with a DUI related suspension?

    I dont understand how that works. How do you get suspended for getting a dui from the NBA? I mean, hes not on the job, and he's been punished by the judicial system, so why does the NBA suspend him?

    Image is everything when you are competing with MLB and the NFL.

    Also for those who don't know, the actual DUI was back in July 2012. The NBA penalty was long expected to be enacted once he got back on the court (as a coach or player)

    ESPN made it seem like its a new thing...

    Is it just me, or do a disproportionate number of NBA head coaches get DUIs?
