Shams: Nets Fire Steve Nash; Udoka to be named Next HC

[BatManu20]

The NBA is a soap opera. Udoka was out of work like 5 minutes after banging multiple women inside the Celtics org, including a higher up’s wife. Primo will be back in the league in no time tbh.

Man, that's steep drop in job quality for Udoka. From the up-and-coming Celtics to the imploding Nets? Yikes.

[Mugen]

Primo is gonna be on a roster by the All Star game tbh.

[Leetonidas]

Nets are desperate lol. watch them sign Primo:lol

[BatManu20]

Nets are desperate lol. watch them sign Primo:lol

Honestly that’s a very real possibility. BKN and the Lakers gotta be chomping at the bit tbh.

[LeBowen]

Perfect team for Simmons, he's not even in top3 of their biggest issues. :lol

:lol

[K...]

Whats the record for most fired coaches in a season? I think Durant has the talent to get the record

It's a great job for him to reestablish himself: he needs to manage the internal turmoil and get the most of the talent he has. Getting them to the playoffs without everything blowing up would be a big win for him, plus it helps him leave the Boston situation in the past and ensures his financial future. Hopefully he doesn't meet them in the playoffs, but can't say it wouldn't be fun to watch :lol

[ducks]

Would it not be in the leagues best interest to not let nets hire him.
He broke the rules and not basically says fuck the rules I fuck who the fuck I want when I fucking want

[The Truth #6]

Perfect for Udoka too, for that same reason. Kyrie will hog all the bad press.

That'll sound good until Kyrie and/or Ben implode and the Nets get eliminated in the play-in game, tbh.

[Mr. Body]

Nets have pretty good pieces, but their top players are headcases. A coach can somehow find the core there, but it could be hard.

[Ariel]

Well, that's the challenge, yes. I didn't say it wasn't without risks, but if he can keep them in check for one season, that will do wonders to put the scandal behind him. I think he's got as good a chance as anyone of pulling that off. The bar is set much lower, everyone expects the Nets to blow up.

[Seventyniner]

Phil Jackson would ring with this Nets squad.

[Mr. Body]

Phil Jackson would ring with this Nets squad.

Lol, no. Jackson needed very specific kinds of players to run the triangle, a system he didn't even create himself.

What rules? I thought you dumbfucks were all about unencumbered freedom. He can have as much consensual sex as he pleases. It’s not his responsibility to ensure women are faithful. Two adults can do as they please. Stop trying to dictate other peoples free will you stupid Nazi fuck.

The celtics really fucked this up by declining to tell us why he was suspended. Rules about sex with coworkers are pretty common and make sense. But they didnt fire him.

What was her punishment?

I’m a lot more sympathetic in this situation. Yes, of course I think he shouldn’t have engaged a coworker. It’s just not a smart move but for this guy to be vilified and her to get off without consequence or any mention of responsibility is a bit disingenuous.

Let’s also not act like this kind of behavior isn’t basically the norm in professional sports. People fuck and are unfaithful all the time.

I'm sure the Celtics will leak it a few months after he's in Brooklyn...

No coach is gonna stop Flat Earth and Beta from being divas

[exstatic]

Lol, no. Jackson needed very specific kinds of players to run the triangle, a system he didn't even create himself.

…and Tex Winter sitting at the end of the bench, spoon feeding him the triple post offense.

[mo7888]

Ime out....Jacque Vaughn hired as HC...

[rjv]

Ime out....Jacque Vaughn hired as HC...

i guess this means they won't be signing primo after all . . .

[mo7888]

i guess this means they won't be signing primo after all . . .

Lol... I also think it means they are going to move KD and Kyrie and start some sort of rebuild....

[cd98]

Not surprised Nets hired elsewhere. Why would Udoka even consider coaching that dysfunctional team?

[Ignazzz]

Lol... I also think it means they are going to move KD and Kyrie and start some sort of rebuild....
Without own picks?

[mo7888]

Without own picks?

I didn't say complete tear down. They can turn KD into picks and probably Kyrie into a pick or two with LA if they want to revisit that. They could even package both guys to LA for the picks plus AD and sort of try and re-tool around AD. They've got options.

[exstatic]

Yeah, that was weird, but then,you kind of expect that from the Nets. What a fucking dumpster fire.

Fuck, I would hate to be building around broken down about to be on the wrong side of 30 Anthony Davis. Would probably end up like another Harden situation.

AD, in seven years, never led NO to the playoffs. Not once.

Very possible...but Brooklyn doesn't have any good choices in front of them to choose from..

[Mr. Body]

Jacques is technically part of the Pop coaching tree, no?

[Ice009]

Ime out....Jacque Vaughn hired as HC...

Did Ime turn them down, or did they just not want to hire him?

[mo7888]

Did Ime turn them down, or did they just not want to hire him?

The Nets decided to move on after they did their due diligence..

[MultiTroll]

Has Nash decided to stay out of the NBA after the flowery expectations of he and Durbettas marriage turning to shit. (quite predicably imo)
