SportsNigerian-American Ime Sunday Udoka Is New Coach Of The Boston Celtics by ZooOga(op): 11:12pm On Jun 23, 2021
Nigerian-American Ime Sunday Udoka is the New Coach of the Boston Celtics

Celtics to name Nets assistant Ime Udoka as new coach
By Brian Lewis June 23, 2021

It’s hard to keep good help. And Brooklyn lost a top assistant with Ime Udoka finalizing a deal to take over as head coach of the Boston Celtics.

After just a single season with the Nets – who could lose two other assistants up for vacant head coaching spots – Udoka will move on in a hire first reported by ESPN and confirmed by The Post. He’ll replace Brad Stevens, who moved up to president of basketball operations earlier this month in replacing Danny Ainge.

The 43-year-old Udoka – who was long overdue for a head coaching position – was essentially Steve Nash’s defensive coordinator. He’ll bring a non-nonsense, tough-love approach to the Celtics, after coaching that way in Brooklyn and also getting to know several of Boston’s stars at the 2019 FIBA World Cup.

“Ime focuses a lot about defense, because obviously when he played that’s basically what he was, a defender, and he liked to be physical,” Nets guard Mike James said of Udoka. “Just for me personally, he’s always reminded me to do the little things; sprint back, load up box out, be physical.

“He’s not like a coach that’ll hold back how he feels. He’s going to tell you how he feels, how you’re playing, what you should be doing better. For somebody like me, obviously that might not be the same what everybody else is doing. But I like coaches to be honest and tell me what they want me to do and it works out.”

Like much of the Nets organization – from GM Sean Marks on down – Udoka was part of the Spurs’ tree. After seven seasons in the NBA with the Knicks, Lakers, Blazers, Kings and Spurs, he joined Gregg Popovich’s staff as an assistant in 2012, winning a title in 2014.

Udoka had been a candidate for the head coaching job in Brooklyn in 2016, before Marks – with whom he’d worked in San Antonio – went with Kenny Atkinson. He ended up getting hired as a lead assistant in Philadelphia in 2019; but when Brett Brown got fired after last season, he finally landed with the Nets.

Boston also had multiple interviews with Bucks assistant Darvin Ham and Clippers assistant Chauncey Billups. But after Udoka had made an impression on Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown and Marcus Smart while coaching under Popovich at Team USA in 2019, ESPN reported their backing separated Udoka from the pack.

And he may not be the only assistant the Nets lose in the coming weeks.

Nigeria’s Oil Industry Is Struggling To Win Back Investors

CelebritiesUsain Bolt Welcomes Newborn Twin Sons Thunder And Saint Leo by ZooOga(op): 1:31am On Jun 21, 2021
Usain Bolt welcomes newborn twin sons Thunder and Saint Leo

Sprinter Usain Bolt has had twin boys, named Thunder Bolt and Saint Leo Bolt.

Bolt, 34, announced the news on Instagram on Father's Day, with a lightning bolt emoji next to each of his children's names.

The Olympic champion posted a photo of him and partner Kasi Bennett, with their twin boys and one-year-old daughter Olympia Lightning.

The couple did not say when exactly the twins were born.

Bennett also posted a photo with the babies, saying Bolt was "the rock of this family and the greatest daddy to our little ones".

Olympia Lightning was born in May 2020, and her name was announced publicly two months later.

Before her birth, Bolt had kept followers updated of Bennett's pregnancy on his social media. However, neither he nor Bennett had posted about her pregnancy with the twins.

Bolt, a Jamaican sprinting icon, retired from athletics in 2017 and still holds the 100m and 200m world records, making him the fastest man in history.

He is also the only man to have won three 100m Olympic titles and 23 major gold medals during his career.

After leaving athletics he tried to play professional football, but then announced he was leaving sports entirely in 2019.

Bolt is not the first celebrity to use a play-on words when naming children.

In 2013 Kanye West and his wife Kim Kardashian West, who are currently separated, made headlines when they named their child North West.

Musician Jermaine Jackson named his son, who is now 20 years old, Jermajesty.

And television actor Rob Morrow from 1990s series Northern Exposure named his daughter, who is now also an actor, Tu Morrow.

I respectfully disagree with the man.

Foreign multinational oil companies did the research and built the now non-functioning refineries.

British Petroleum, Royal Dutch Shell, and Esso, now Exxon Mobil brought in their immense capital resources. There may be a few more.

Shell also crafted the slick derivative sham.
