I must be missing something. People keep ignoring the fact that the Celtics didn't fire him. He's still under contract. I can't imagine they'd let him out of his contract so he can coach their rivals.
This may be a dumb question, but does the nets have to honor the suspension of the Celtics, or can he start immediately
If the Nets hire Udoka, as a Bucks fan I feel like they are doing this for 2 reasons. One, they are desperate. Two, they want to tick our fanbase off because this man's actions led to the greatest reporter in Bucks History telling Stephen A to not further blame women. This is only adding to an insane rivalry. I can't wait for when they come to Milwaukee in early March because the boos will be so loud. Not only are we upset so are the Celtics.
There wont be any Female Staff in the Nets Organization once Udoka gets in as HC. and that would be another problem Nets would have to deal with. just a Circus Organization. 😂😂😂
Lmaoooo…the world is burning, send in Udoka the pipe master !
On a serious note, isn’t Udoka known for being a straight shooter? He keeps it real? If he can work with Kyrie and Simmons, I’ll have to give him his flowers that I hope he doesn’t pass on to some woman.
Udoka likes chaos I see. The Nets are full of it.
Good idea….Hire a shithead to work with other shitheads
Eff around and end up having to move to NJ and become the New Jersey Nets.
Hopefully this guy keeps his pants on.
Boston & Brooklyn both have much talent. The difference is, Celtics bought into his philosophy and were willing to sacrifice for the better of the team. Good luck handling Kyrie & Ben Simmons.
I hope Ima Udoku gets some respect back by staying with the Celtics just to serve the suspension. And then go wherever. But that's a fantasy. There is NO SELF RESPECT OR MORALS.
My Hebrew brother Amare' 🎯 Get your 💰🔥
Ok as the Celtics why would you allow another Eastern Conference have Ime as their coach if you just suspended him for the year. I'd say sorry he's still under contract, he's still suspended and you cant talk to him until next year.
He can make it work
Nothing like hiring a suspended coach, who ruined a franchise, to turn around a ruined franchise. What could possibly go wrong.
How can they hire a coach who is under another organization
Trust me I can see this from the beginning when Joseph C. Tsai brought the nets.
No black players wants to plays for a Asian owner, they’re only there for the money and looks how Kyrie and KD wants to run the team. It’s no Steve Nash faults.
Most black peoples are not loyalty to Asian people.
The NBA owners are just trying to have diversity of ownership but deep down we knows Joseph C. Tsai wasn’t accepted in the NBA.
Inmates do runs the team in Brooklyn!!
How is udoka perfect coach. This team has no defensive players . Celtics were loaded on defense . Nets are loaded with players defending themselves in media
Hire a "leader" that can't even keep his own house and personal life in order. SMH
The Nets organization is following the Knicks blueprint for bad decision making…
I agree with Amare he and Nash had a good coaching staff was it the best NOPE… but there not the only reason Nets are garbage.
Man Telenovelas doesn't come close to Nets drama 😂😂
As I have seen Alex Cora return to Boston and I don't want to even give my opinion on Cora. I just think it wasnt a good decision to bring him back
Same with Ime. And the results of last season leap off the page. Its unfortunate. But Ime can't come back. Brooklyn might as well have him…..and give us Seth Curry.
Udoka should have been their choice anyway before Steve Nash. Steve Nash is a terrible coach with no experience on any level.
Kyrie and his bulls**t did their best to ruin the Celtics and is nothing more than a talented malcontent/contrarian/hard-head who should be booted out of the game forever. If he's unhappy, as he always is, let him see how happy he is when all that money he makes dries up. I wouldn't have him on my team if he paid ME to play. He is a cancer on his team (and for that matter, the rest of the world). People like him need to go into a cave and hide his head under a rock.
Only bring STAT on for Brooklyn drama & headlines smh
That would Be a Good Look For The Nets 💯
Rockets fans just lurking in wait… 👀
We all know why he chose the Nets. Beyonce better run for the hills.
Amari is exactly correct! On udoka and bringing components to nets that can everybody can work with!
I seen they wasn’t responding to nash soon as season started I knew he was gone!
