Paul Pierce says Brooklyn should hire Udoka; Kevin Garnett says otherwise



Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce discuss the Brooklyn saga, talking about the potential hiring of Ime Udoka.

Pierce argues that the Nets had done due diligence and that Udoka did nothing illegal, but a moral mistake, based on facts, Pierce claimed. He also said that it gives a time for “healing.”

KG meanwhile said that they must wait for the offseason to change coaches.

    I’m not surprised about Pierce’s position.

    We don’t even know what happened with Udoka man lmfao

    I guess pierce’s position on Udoka is very high…

    If Pierce thinks something is a good idea probably best to run in the other direction.

    Pierce and KG were both very reasonable here. I think this is one of those situations where you’ve got to watch the video and not just the title of the post.

    Both agreed keeping the current coach for the year is the best move ps.

  6. Beavshak

    I agree with KGs position, but Pierce has a surprisingly rational argument here. It’s worth watching.

  7. Maybe its because I’m an NHL fan, but after this week I question the phrase “due diligence” when used in sports

    Honestly if it weren’t for all the other Nets drama they probably could hire him without too much pushback. Billups and Kidd both were able to get
    jobs

    Did you even watch your own video? They agreed at the end lmao

    Every Sports fan that says they want this guy say so simply because they think he’ll win with that island of misfit toys team and they’ll use whatever mental gymnastics to justify it

    Seems like Pierce and Garnett don’t know what actually happened like Matt Barnes and John Salley who both said Ime will never coach again.

    Taking advice from pierce is like taking advice from a sack of potatoes

    Always annoys me when completely unaffected third parties try to dictate when it’s time for healing

    Hey, is their podcast any good ? I couldn’t stand Pierce on ESPN but from the extracts I’ve seen of their podcast he seems better, so is it worth listening to ?

    KG and The Truth have always had top banter together. Like they should have been teammates long before they were

    Brooklyn Nets and due diligence is an oxymoron.

    I disagree with Pierce but I’m not gonna lie I thought his logic was gonna be really fucking stupid
