    he reportedly cheated on his wife with the wife of a team chairperson and repeatedly ignored the team's warnings against doing so. he's not exactly the best character or influence.

    Why would anybody want the Nets job? Between Irving and Simmons that team is uncoachable.

    I have been told he has gotten more than one woman pregnant within the organization as well.

    cuz it's icky and it's my opinion? who the hell is policing?

    the double standard between the NBA and real life is staggering at times.

    no double standards. Its not illegal for consenting adults to fornicate even within infidelity. Get your opinion out of others bedrooms.

    Yes you are entitled to tour opinion. Just as i am mine. You yourself, said how can he be hired again. Maybe because not everyone gets into personal lives like you prefer them to?

    Just saying what happened isnt anyones biz but the organization and him.
    How you think he should be blackballed is pretty over the top morality policing.
    Not saying you cant have an opinion. Just saying your opinion is silly and petty.

    If you said how can a woman want to marry him? Id totally get it. BUt you want the guy to not work anymore??

    gimme a break man.

    nowhere in my posts did i say he shouldn't work again. re-read what i wrote before making up bullshit.

    dude was suspended for a year for company misconduct. he is getting hired for a marquee job a month later. show me another world where this kinda stuff happens outside of pro sports.

    didn't realize i needed your approval to remark on the disparities of this world and the real one now.

    What about real life and Actors in Hollywood/Politicians in DC/Musicians all over the world/MLB/Hockey/English Premier League? If you are expecting these people to have to behave the same as us, I’m not quite sure what to tell you.

    read above. Are you really saying that post did not mean you dont think he should work anymore????
    Really? You asked how the hell does this guy get another job. Why ask that if you dont think he should?

    So no. What i said was not bullshit.

    Totally agree, but shouldn’t surprise. There is a story of a guy in my business that I used to think was an urban legend. Until I worked with him. Long story short, he was working the MASTERS for CBS and on his way to work robbed a bank!!!! Got busted when the blue dye blew up all over him in his hotel room. Guy is back in the sports broadcasting business working. Shit happens in the real world.
