What an asshole. If only there was some way for him to not get the money from the sale. Right now his “punishment” seems to be “get $2 billion.”
Other than the last two years, his commitment to the team was trading good players and preventing any progress in team quality.
Plus I just don’t understand: if you hate Black people so much, why would you even want to own an NBA team?
He can cosplay being a slaveowner?
I’d actually considered that.
Ime Udoka has indeed been suspended for the full season.
So, just to recap: DeShaun Watson gets about three-fifths of the season suspended (under deliberately favorable financial terms) for allegedly sexually assaulting 30 women, but Udoka gets a full year at his full salary for having a consensual relationship with a member of the Celtics staff.
I know it’s different sports, but make this make sense.
Maybe this should go in a new 2022-23 season thread. But for the time being I’ll post it here. Bottom Line: It’s going to be a very competitive year, with fivethirtyeight.com predicting eleven teams have greater than a five percent chance of winning. This includes the Toronto Raptors, whom they see as coming in fifth in the East with a 50-32 record. Any comments on their comments?
