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.

Kind of harsh if it was consensual. Is he suspended with or without pay? Sounds like an office romance. Didn't the T-Wolves ex-GM get fired for the same thing?
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.

It does seem like a harsh punishment which might mean there is more to the story than currently released. Maybe the female staff person was an underage intern or they were caught snorting coke off a naked leprechaun....

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.

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.
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.
This rule is all about avoidng sexual coercion/balance of power in the climate we live in.
They want to avoid people feeling they have to do certain things (including not report things or even break up again) when there is a second relationship between the two parties (boss)

Eww.. Boucher is so underrated around these parts. Despite how poorly he started the season last year, he was still one our best players analytically. He drives wins for this team, even if it doesn't feel like it.
People can't mentally get over the fact that Boucher can be so effective at driving wins, while looking awkward AF.

I agree and then totally disagree with you on this one. Unless the Coach is having sex with his "siblings, children and/or parents"

If they breakup and it sours the workplace, then again take action. But before that happens, they should be allowed to do what they want to do.
If we're bringing a balance of power into the equation, then that still holds for a parent to child. Many fathers have power over their kids. Or can grant special favours that other members of the work force can't get.
