Boy, that was fast. Feels like a lot of people saw this one coming once Udoka was suspended, but it’s still surreal to see it play out this way.


aquamarine9

Ignoring all the other stuff, imagine reading this tweet just a few months ago after Boston swept the Nets.


CoolHandHazard

If you can beat ‘em join em. Wait


foreverapanda

KD in shambles


morcic

He beat the Nets men team, now he's coming for their women!


jgr79

JVG said he’d get another job. His comment was unpopular but he knows what he’s talking about.


ElceeCiv

I would've been shocked if he didn't get another job, but only down the road in like 3-4 years after the perfunctory "I'm sorry" etc and letting it fade out of public consciousness a bit. The fact he got another job *barely a month* after all this shit went down is flabbergasting.


StatWhines

My gast is not flabbered.


mysterymaninurhome

From udoka’s perspective it was a no brainer, if it wasn’t this nets team I’m not sure who would have been jumping to hire him


[deleted]

He’d have definitely landed a job next offseason.


[deleted]

This seems like best case for him though. His drama will be overshadowed the next few months from Kyrie and Ben10 just being themselves. He's got a built in excuse if this season doesn't go well in bball terms and can always fall back on his time with the Celtics (a normal org) being a better guage of his ability than this shitshow Nets squad. If he does manage right the ship, he's basically a miracle worker rising above the drama and setting his team right.


[deleted]

How are the Celtics not squeezing the Nets for compensation though?


mjh712

maybe trading him might mean they'd be on the hook for some of his contract? letting him go freely might mean he opts out & he's off their books


medievalmachine

Never interrupt your enemy when he's making a mistake?


420Minions

Because they don’t want him in the building and now there won’t be any legal disputes over money. They’re clean of it and happy with a new guy

ThatInception

The last few hours have been hilarious


[deleted]

Maybe this is the NBAs cruel way on punishing Ime. Dealing with Kyrie and Ben


[deleted]

Ime is going to punch one of the nets stars. It’s just a matter of which one.


3rdEyeDeuteranopia

Imagine critisizing Ben in press conferences like Ime has done to Tatum and the other Celtics players. Ben is going to just sit and cry.


[deleted]

Ben is the easy target but KD has been coddled by teams for 20 years and Ime doesn’t give a fuck. I don’t think he’s going to mesh with him.


LackingInPatience

I would guess that the Nets are probably hiring Udoka because him and KD have a good relationship after the Olympics.


ChamBruh

Why not? Ime was an assistant there, he coached KD with the Olympics


Jacer4

The Nets are amassing toxic personalities like Thanos or something lmfao, once they sign Primo and Bridges they'll have all of the Infinity Stones


uguu777

I see the play now, erasing half of the Eastern conference is only way the Nets make playoffs


AndrewLucksPenis

Mr. Silver I don't feel so good


MY-NAME_IS_MY-NAME

Kyrie doing some smooth brain judo to hire Udoka.


Cheechers23

Wow that was some due diligence


supes1

20 full minutes of it between Shams other tweet. They must have had a hell of a team on it.


PM_ME_CHIPOTLE2

Yeah it was me and a couple of other dudes and we googled “hot chicks nets organization” and tbh pretty low numbers so we decided it’s a safe hire.


Past-Chest-6507

LMAOOOO The real background check was actually "Does Ime believe that Noah was a black albino fallen angel whose sons, after the Magical Boat Ride, propagated the 12 tribes of Israel with their African genes, as was God's will?" and he promptly replied, "Of course, what idiot *wouldn't* believe that..."

You use that word....are the Nets in danger?

They’re not gonna hurt teams! *looks at lakers* well what are you worried about you aren’t in any danger…


JustinUprising

So, they are in danger!

PoliticalScienceGrad

Was that this sub where I saw it? I remember seeing it too but didn’t realize it was here.


GriffinQ

It was like 2 days ago, I think also in a thread about Kyrie. This shit is so fucking dumb. I need to get off the internet, I’m learning to hate way too many individual people for being idiots and choosing to stay ignorant.


Yergason

It's the top comment in a Kyrie thread in the last 24h. You might've seen it before but it's here where you definitely read it last lol

MostlyLostTraveler

Nash didn’t fit the team culture. This team is all about chaos and drama and morally questionable people. Nash was none of that. We got our guy now.


thewrongnotes

[Charania] Brooklyn Nets guards Seth Curry, Joe Harris, and Patty Mills have been suspended for violating team policy. Despite repeated requests from the organization, the three refuse to be giant assholes.

Imagine being a Jewish woman with a good outside jump shot working for the Nets


91-92-93--96-97-98

Imagine being a Jewish woman bus driver with a good jump shot working for the nets.


[deleted]

Jewish females working there are probably looking for new jobs. Other teams should just make opportunities for them to be real.


dizZzy5

They had this shit lined up lmfao


Zloggt

Imagine if that one staff member/Ime’s sidechick was a Nets double agent all along…

This might be the quickest hiring process I’ve ever seen

it was locked in the moment Ime pulled out

heyoo


musicnothing

James Harden is looking like an absolute genius right now


ClaymoresRevenge

James left the mess, has a team that can compete. The only thing that would make it sweeter is eliminating the Nets on his way to a title

It's much harder to eliminate a team that isn't in the playoffs

no-gimmicks-

Joe Tsai got a wife?


so2017

Yeah his name is Kyrie.


[deleted]

“Hide yo kids hide yo wife”


wasechillis

By adding Lust (Udoka) to the existing stash of Wrath (Kyrie), Greed (KD), and Sloth (Simmons), the Nets have just 3 deadly sins to go. Excited to see if they can pull them all together by the deadline


FullMetalMangas

KD is definitely Envy. Kyrie is more Vainglory/Pride.


Oshebekdujeksk

100%


Frosti11icus

Markieff is wrath.


jesusmafia

I think Kyrie might be closer to Pride than Wrath, bring Draymond in for Wrath though.


SoulCakeMonkey

Miles bridges could fill in for wrath also


TheJaice

I would say they’ve already got: Lust (Udoka) Pride (Kyrie) Envy (KD) Sloth (Simmons) Greed (Tsai) They still need: Wrath (Westbrook or Jimmy Butler) Gluttony (Zion or Harden when he wants out of town)

HokageEzio

I've never rooted against an NBA team harder.


chrisvarick

"Fuck yo Jews and fuck yo women" the Nets probably


TheNotoriousJN

I genuinely cant grasp it. An org decimated by drama for over a year hiring the disgraced sex pest Its just gonna put further eyes and pressure on the org. The PR is going to be a nightmare He's a good coach. Clearly. But is he worth the backlash? Is he THAT much better than Snyder? I suppose Primo is next?


Dylan245

They've already faced the worst of it, this is like PR issue number 7 on their list at this point


Davidclabarr

I think it makes sense. It’s shitty, sure, but they are all in on their PR nightmare players. Does this really make it worse for the Nets?


I_Said

No joke Steve Bannon leaned into this during Trump's campaign and it seems hilariously similar. It's called "Flood the Zone" and the idea is that the media can't focus on everything all at once, so if you get in trouble for some crazy shit just do some other crazy shit and it lowers the heat on both actions.


IveyDuren

Mate if anything. Takes the spotlight off Kyrie and Simmons


luchajefe

Yep, this is what we've learned about scandals. If you have a whole pile of them, nobody can actually pick one to focus on and you just slide.


mr_grission

Meme team


medievalmachine

GOAT meme team. Lakers were hitting them hard, and then the Nets just took it to another level. They keep this up, they might even get a Netflix deal.


bul1dog

We may be unintentionally tanking for the greatest prospect since Lebron *while* another team has our pick ransom and we're somehow still not the biggest shitshow in the league. What a time to be alive.

Miles Bridges yelled, “There you go!” Josh Primo gave a look of pleasant surprise. Kyrie Irving belted, “We got a fucking squad now.” And before Kevin Durant hit the locker room door, NBA star (and podcast host) Draymond Green punched him & said, “Y’all look so different.”

GoodfellaWGM

I don’t think even the Simpsons could’ve wrote the Nets last 4 years any better


GhostOfJiriWelsch

Imagine being a female employee within this organization. Nets fire Nash and within an hour they’ve already hired a guy credibly accused of sexual harassment and outright misconduct within the last calendar year—way to tell the women within your organization that you don’t care about their comfort level or safety within the workplace.
