Another score for Durant and Kyrie! Plus, didn't genius Kyrie say they could coach themselves. I think that's a super idea. I am sure Nash wanted out of that shit show. All of the other stuff and now dealing with anti-semitism? At some point a guy might ask himself is it really worth it to associate myself and legacy with these kind of people.

No, teams like Brooklyn and the Lakers don't care about character. Either would sign anyone regardless of off the court issues. Wouldn't be shocked if the Lakers sign the Spurs' reject...

I expected the Blazers to be better because Dame was finally healthy. But the Jazz were supposed to be tanking for Wemba. They're going to have to trade Markkanen , Clarkson, Conley, and Vanderbilt for that to happen.

That coach is in the same spot Chauncy was last year with us. Deep down he wants to win and has to love what he’s seeing.
 
wait... udoka hiring is really happening according to Woj.

for fucks sake, are there no consequences in this messed up world we live in? how the hell does this guy get another job?

What did he do again? He cheated on his wife with a coworker? And you don’t want him to be able to work again? Was there other things he did?

he reportedly cheated on his wife with the wife of a team chairperson and repeatedly ignored the team's warnings against doing so. he's not exactly the best character or influence.
 
not the news I wanted but at least a start date.

cuz it's icky and it's my opinion? who the hell is policing?

the double standard between the NBA and real life is staggering at times.

no double standards. Its not illegal for consenting adults to fornicate even within infidelity. Get your opinion out of others bedrooms.

Yes you are entitled to tour opinion. Just as i am mine. You yourself, said how can he be hired again. Maybe because not everyone gets into personal lives like you prefer them to?

Just saying what happened isnt anyones biz but the organization and him.
How you think he should be blackballed is pretty over the top morality policing.
Not saying you cant have an opinion. Just saying your opinion is silly and petty.

If you said how can a woman want to marry him? Id totally get it. BUt you want the guy to not work anymore??

gimme a break man.

nowhere in my posts did i say he shouldn't work again. re-read what i wrote before making up bullshit.

dude was suspended for a year for company misconduct. he is getting hired for a marquee job a month later. show me another world where this kinda stuff happens outside of pro sports.

didn't realize i needed your approval to remark on the disparities of this world and the real one now.

What about real life and Actors in Hollywood/Politicians in DC/Musicians all over the world/MLB/Hockey/English Premier League? If you are expecting these people to have to behave the same as us, I’m not quite sure what to tell you.

read above. Are you really saying that post did not mean you dont think he should work anymore????
Really? You asked how the hell does this guy get another job. Why ask that if you dont think he should?

So no. What i said was not bullshit.

Totally agree, but shouldn’t surprise. There is a story of a guy in my business that I used to think was an urban legend. Until I worked with him. Long story short, he was working the MASTERS for CBS and on his way to work robbed a bank!!!! Got busted when the blue dye blew up all over him in his hotel room. Guy is back in the sports broadcasting business working. Shit happens in the real world.
