Khanben: Both. She is the Celtics Team Services Manager while her husband is VP Finance. |

A40: The funny elephant in the room is how nobody on mainstream media is asking why Udoka's name is out there while she is protected. This is a punitive measure pure and simple. How dare this black man use his BBC to widen the ingboitus of the wife of one of his white bosses. Similar to what would happen to Kunta Kinte if he pushed his abunna into massa's wife. 5 Likes 1 Share |

afrodoc2: Wow, on one hand Ime get mind ohh. Why did he and the Celtics not just agree for him to resign. he and the Celtics are just wasting a whole year on something if it was consensual, should have been handled internally. SAS surprising got it right, as far as I know situations like this is either a firing/resignation offense or an internally handled matter |

Matt Barnes just said this is 100x deeper than what is out |

Khanben: The full details will seep out eventually. |
Re: The NBA Begins by Khanben: 11:16pm On Sep 23, 2022 |
The people I pity are the women who are not involved in this shit, who will either have their names or pictures associated with this due to speculation from the public. |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 11:36pm On Sep 23, 2022 |
afrodoc2:It was clearly a punitive and vindictive measure. The question now is whether it was justified or not. Did Ime do more or not. Since you said it's consensual why make the identity of the woman a secret? This is the problem with gynocentric society. Why are they pretending like the man cheated with himself. Maybe he didn't just knack he probably impregnated somebody Rumored offenses

A40: If this is true they should fire him immediately. A clean break is better for them in the long run |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 11:43pm On Sep 23, 2022 |
Khanben:This is why you get in front of it by being transparent. Lot of people defending Udoka as they should when you give half baked information. Won't apologize for my initial stance if further details show Udoka to be the full villain. No be we say make una no transparent Khanben:100% Celtics fault |
Re: The NBA Begins by afrodoc2: 11:47pm On Sep 23, 2022 |
A40: Nos 1,2,3,6 are true. 4,5,7 i am not so sure although there were rumours that it was more than one married woman. |
Re: The NBA Begins by Khanben: 11:56pm On Sep 23, 2022 |
A40: Absolutely, as soon as you as an organization decided not to keep it in house, they should have come clean in full, so as to protect their other female employees from unnecessary vulgar speculations, especially from the toxic section of social media. |
Re: The NBA Begins by birdman(m): 12:04am On Sep 24, 2022 |
There is way more to this story than being told, probably to prevent embarassment to some staff. In any case, purposely going after one or two of your coworkers wives is a down low move. Way worse than Derek Fishers case. I had so much respect for this guy. Popovich is going to be feeling terrible as well, this guy was supposed to be a shining example from the spurs organization. |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 12:09am On Sep 24, 2022 |
afrodoc2:Doki. E be like say you get internal sources. Whatever happens I'm just somewhat relieved this is a morality and not a criminal issue that will completely kill his NBA coaching career. The key for me is the fact that these affairs were consensual and nothing like violence or underage involved. If na dvck pics and all those kin things. He without sin make he cast first stone. I just hope there's more transparency in this thing. Implied guilt is sometimes worse than actual offense and this is what the Woke mafia have now weaponized |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 12:11am On Sep 24, 2022 |
Khanben:Exactly. Completely keep it in house or just fire him and make everyone sign an NDA. Can't malign only one man and allow the other women come out smelling daisies. Talmbout protect their identities. That's foolishness |
Re: The NBA Begins by afrodoc2: 12:24am On Sep 24, 2022 |
A40: I have been following closely and getting snippets. Let me post this clip. Woke media on ESPN trying to shut Perk down. From what Perk said it seems obvious that multiple women were involved. The identity of the first woman involved became clearer when she disabled all her social media BEFORE the news was leaked. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFEBDWUde7o |

Even Stephen A caught some strays. It seems Feminism is the absence of female accountability. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wC_eWU0qSCc |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 12:47am On Sep 24, 2022 |
afrodoc2:I hardly watch ESPN if it's not like their live games at this point. The Woke fungus and woke agenda is unbearable at this point All I'm sure of at this point is that he definitely messed with the wife of a high ranking Celtics staffer and not just a coworker on the lower rung Let them keep beating around the bush. Their identities will be exposed eventually |
Re: The NBA Begins by steady986(m): 12:48am On Sep 24, 2022 |
afrodoc2: Women and accountability are two things that just never go together. So Ime Udoka takes responsibility for his actions but the other women shouldn't? The way these people go over the edge in trying to protect women is absurd. The Celtics have said that it was a consensual relationship, what other investigation from a law firm are you waiting for again? I love Kendrick Perkins for this. I missed today's show for some reason and I going to YouTube to search for the snippets. |

Re: The NBA Begins by Khanben: 12:56am On Sep 24, 2022 |
steady986: The Celtics never said it was consensual, reports without a source said that, and other reports also without sources, have emanated pointing to possible misconduct/missteps on Ime's part. So the hiring of a law firm is the right call albeit a bit late IMHO. The Celtics dropped the ball big time on this one, they should have gotten it properly investigated as soon as they were made aware of it in June, if they had done that they would have come out with a more complete picture, and all this speculation would have been largely unnecessary. |
Re: The NBA Begins by steady986(m): 1:10am On Sep 24, 2022 |
Khanben: This is truly on them. Why have a press conference if you're not going to give us details? And there's no smoke without fire. If he's been suspended then it means the investigation has been completed or there's enough evidence suggesting he broke the code of conduct. With all the rumours flying around about who the women involved are (whether there truly were women involved), they could have debunked it and said no women were involved. It saves the female staff of the organization a whole lot of embarrassment. But they didn't, which means women truly were involved. 1 Like |

Khanben:If it was not consensual he would have been fired for sure. Since protocol has been broken whether it was consensual or not would not help Udoka's case Celtics don't need to confirm or deny that. They have been dropping half baked information from the start instead of giving complete information. That is the real source of the problem. Like we said earlier. You either fire the man. Make everyone sign NDA and wash your hands off of him. Or come clean with everything that has happened. But don't act shocked and brand new that media and sources are throwing as much shxt on the wall to see which one sticks and blame people for just you know doing their jobs and trying to investigate what really happened or make it up as they go in whatever order 1 Like |

steady986: That is why organizations who are in the public domain should either have a PR risk management section in house or have one on retainer. The fact that a team president is saying publicly that he made this decision based on his conscience is just juvenile. They did the hard part in keeping it quiet from the time it was reported to when they decided to deal with it, but the bungled the execution. All they needed to do was investigate it properly and have conclusive answers that kills any iota of speculation, by the time they were ready to make it public. Their approach just allows for speculation that might come to bite them in the ass if they are not careful, unless it was their desire to dominate the news cycle for more than necessary. 2 Likes |
Re: The NBA Begins by Khanben: 1:31am On Sep 24, 2022 |
A40: I am not shocked and if you've read all my thread on the matter you will find that I have put the blame on how the issue was handled on the Celtics brass. It is always better to give the media one clear cut, complete, truthful and concise scenario, so as to satisfy their appetite and remove their need for uncessary speculations, especially when all their sources testify to its truthfulness. 1 Like |
Re: The NBA Begins by steady986(m): 1:44am On Sep 24, 2022 |
Khanben: And to think it is their fellow ESPN reporter, Woj, that came out with the idea of consensual relationship, makes Malika a little silly. Woj was sitting right there beside her and she had the guts to say they were not sure of the details. It makes Woj look like he did the reportage with little or no intel. I'm happy that Perkins stood his ground and said he knew the facts for certain. Baba was not about to allow small Malika question his credibility on national TV. |

Khanben:This urge to not expose the woman is really what led to this kpenkelemes. So my thing is fire him or tell the whole story and let the people decide if Udoka is the villain. When you're doing half half all you're causing is a bunch of people looking at all Celtics female employees sideways especially the married ones Nothing is new under the sun and I doubt his hit list can be as long as Tiger Woods own All in all though what this shows is some men will not control their wood at all no matter what it costs.

birdman: The suspension period is just a farce. The Celtics and Ime’s team are using the 1 year suspension narrative to iron out and clarify some legal implications between both parities. Once the legal aspect is concluded and becomes clearer, including contract/ Celtics liabilities, Ime will be let go. Contracts lines will be revised to accommodate the current situation to avoid future issues for the Celtics. Contracts are no joke, for those who have been involved in very high level contract situations, you may understand better. Afterwards, not much will be known as far as the specificity of everything that transpired. No way Ime remains coach of the Celtics. Let me assure you that the Celtics ownership will not fall for any “Woke” blackmail from mainstream media. While many are upset with the Celtics, it is important for the Celtics to control the narrative in this situation considering the people involved. #GREENRUNSDEEP 1 Like |

aaa, so na partner movement. Sometimes these relationships dey dabaru minds. I would have thought they were legally married if I didn't check when you mentioned it. I don't know, but i feel someway, the man should have known better. When you are the first from your demographic to attain what he did, you have to be extra careful. Perhaps it came too soon. A man of his status cannot be involved in such a thing in the US and not be made a scapegoat. Even if the organization initially would not fire you, they'll probably end up getting pressured into doing it. Everyone one way or another is catering to the numerous woke movements now. It would be interesting to see what they eventually do after his suspension, cos this suspension seems to be hanging on some legal issue.
