Reports of Ime Udoka possibly heading to Brooklyn has left some Celtics players shocked and confused. 'I think it left a lot of people just like, 'What the hell is going on here?'' Marcus Smart said. ByJasonLloyd with more:
“From what we know and were told, it was just a suspension. We didn’t know he was leaving to go coach somebody else,” Smart said. “We thought they just suspended him for the year and he’d be back. That’s why it’s confusing. We weren’t told too much about it.”The Athletic
reported. Nash was fired this week following Brooklyn’s 2-5 start. Jacque Vaughn will coach the Nets in the interim and general manager Sean Marks said he has “absolutely not” hired a replacement yet.Six weeks ago, Udoka was suspended by Boston for the 2022-23 season over multiple violations of team policies related to an intimate relationship with a female staff member in the organization.
Udoka led the Celtics to the NBA Finals in his only season as head coach. He and Marks previously worked together as assistant coaches in San Antonio before Marks pivoted to the front office.“I think it left a lot of people just like, ‘What the hell is going on here?’ Because obviously, they suspended him for breaking a team rule. And it’s like, ‘OK, now obviously it looks like more than a suspension. But he’s able to still coach.
Smart said asking questions to Celtics president Brad Stevens, his former head coach, wouldn’t help because no one can divulge much information.“I don’t think you’ll ever get a straight answer about what’s really going on because there’s only so much they can say and that they know,” Smart said. “You can ask, but I don’t think it’s going to change anything, help anything. I think asking is just to express how you feel, whatever you feel, off your chest. But really that’s it.
