Ime Udoka is coaching the **** out of Boston

[jokeboy86]

While everyone's piling on KD/Nash/Kyrie/etc., and deservedly so, I have to give some props to Ime Udoka for the job he's doing coaching this Celtics team.

He's made them tougher, physically and mentally, throughout the season, and its showed during this series. They respond to every big shot, they play physical as hell, they contest everything, and they don't let you have anything easy.

His defensive gameplan on Durant has him looking like a local YMCA recruit, and the way the team rotates and helps on defense is amazing.

So impressed with the mentality he's implemented in this team, the way they execute on defense, and their "f-you" attitude.

When are we going to see her at a game is all I care about. Forget all of these other lame celebrities who are shown. We need Nia Long on TV during the playoffs.

Maybe when Udoka takes the Celtics to the Finals

Again Americans find a way to talk about person color.

Obsessed with human color like always, fascinating.

Mad props to Ime Udoka.
Let's leave color out of this, the man is a great coach regardless of his ethnicity.
He made the Celtics play for each other and hold themselves accountable - which was a culture I didn't think could be changed given the personnel that team has had the last 5 years.

once again, NO ONE in this thread is bringing up color EXCEPT for the people complaining about people bringing it up. you guys are hilarious. read the damn thread before you complain

you have a strange interpretation of the phrase "NO ONE"

look through it yourself, I just did again to make sure. there's literally NO discussion on race with the exception of the Jason Williams joke/reactions ("first black coach") and people saying "DoN'T bRiNg Up RaCe"/reactions

go ahead and prove me wrong

I'd rather not. If you feel the need to selectively ignore certain posts in a thread i'd rather just let you live in your own world and move on. Really no use talking to people that do that. If you said "the majority of people haven't" in regards to commenting about race ; instead of "NO ONE" then you might have actually had a leg to stand on.

once again, I have undertaken the exercise of looking through each post. have you? what you're saying is "I'm too lazy to look, but you're probably wrong so F you"

I love seeing Black coaches succeed. It's just so cool to me

Me too.. It makes me think racial income inequality in the US can be completely solved.. All because one multimillionaire became slightly richer. Such a feel good story.

I just can't believe how much continuity and elite management went into making this team. The Nets trade, the picks, the development, the years of competing under Stevens, all the smart offense & switching defense they played together. And with all of that, somehow they still found the last piece to push them over the top. The celtics are built like a **** football team.
