apparently they're not married according to nia long's wikipedia, so i doubt they figure to get married now.
anywho i've read this morning the team is considering up to a year-long suspension. if a transgression is bad enough to warrant a year-long suspension you may as well just fire the guy. not firing the guy is likely to cause more turmoil next season as they transition from interim coach back to ime (would he come back for the playoffs after sitting out the regular season?) than if they just shitcanned him.
couldn't have happened to a team i hate more

If this was consensual then I'm not sure why there was a problem. If anything it would be personal with his and his spouse/partner and his kids.
The argument is that Udoko could do favours for this woman and end up having some kind of power trip. But that doesn't make much sense either considering nepotism exists in sports.
In football Belichick's kid is on the sidelines with him as an assistant coach. So couldn't he be doing him favours over other coaches? Maybe New England should suspend Belichick as well.

Olynyk getting traded from Detroit to Utah for Bogdanovic. I would love to see the Raps check in on Kelly to see if he's available. I would do a Boucher for Kelly straight up. Money works although Kelly is signed for one less year and Boucher's deal is a declining salary. I think with our Roster KO fits better, Playmaking Center off the bench with good 3 point shooting.Twitter @WJ_FINDLAY

Now, a Flynn and Khem sort of package? Would Utah take a deal like that to take a swing on a guy on his rookie deal along with maybe a 2nd rounder?

Managers and staff hook up all the time in the work environment. Some actually get married and have families... gasp. Seems like an over-reaction at this point, but I don't know the details. Great to see the Celtics in turmoil already. lol.

Udoka thing is kinda weird to me, but maybe more details need to come out to justify it? Unless the relationship was a direct report to him or like an assistant or part of training staff I could see it. But at that point you got to just fire him.
If Celtics are sending the coach away who just got them to the finals for sleeping with say a member of the front office or P.R team and it was consensual it seems iffy.
To me it seems like it has to be worse then currently reported and Celtics are trying to get ahead of itTo be the champs you got to beat the champs

If it's a coworker there are many workplaces with rules in place about that (especially have to be careful around power structures and not many more powerful positions in organizations than an NBA head coach has), not weird at all that it wouldn't just be a personal issue. Nothing to do with the cheating (although that doesn't look great and I'm sure the team is pissed to be near a story like that), just the relationship alone is likely the problem.
It just feels like some kind of double standard.
My feeling is that if you don't allow relationships like these.. then nepotism shouldn't exist either. But nobody really blinks an eye if a coach hires his son to be an assistant. When that's a pretty powerful relationship too. Maybe even more so than with a sexual partner since that's a blood relationship.

The power structure rule should apply to close personal relationships too then.. like between siblings, or with children and/or parents. I'm not quite sure why there is a different standard for those then if a relationship was more sexual in nature.

in terms of siblings and children vs the boss .. its different... and can become an HR nightmare...
