Well, that was interesting. Well, maybe not. We just watched the press conference,

0:04.2

listen to the press conference with Celtic's owner, Wick Rosbeck and Celtic's president,

0:08.6

Brad Stevens, and they said a whole lot of nothing. Again, I give him credit. They could avoid it

0:13.8

and hide out, but they sat in front of the media and took questions and Wick kept saying because

0:18.9

of privacy reasons, he couldn't say much. They certainly didn't name the other party involved with

0:24.4

Udoca, which was no surprise. But a couple of takeaways. One is it was an ongoing problem. This

0:31.6

wasn't one night. As I said, we just slipped up. We don't want drunk at night in a hotel bar.

0:37.7

They brought in a law firm to do the thorough investigation. It sounds to me like what we said

0:44.9

that he was warned that they knew was a problem, that he knew that they knew and they knew it was

0:50.0

cross-nalline and he kept doing it. There was a couple good questions. One, I think, is why

0:56.3

don't you fire them? This is just going to be uncomfortable because if Udoca is going to be sitting

1:02.3

back wherever he is, rooting against the Celtics, that's the only way that he can come back and

1:08.8

be welcome back as if they have a tough time under Mizzulo. If things go well, you're not going to

1:14.5

want to make a coaching change. You're going to want Mizzulo as your permanent head coach until

1:21.5

Udoca hit the road. Either way, it's awkward, which seems like you could just break ties. Say,

1:28.4

this guy broke the rules. We're firing him. We're moving on. They sound like they love

1:33.5

34-year-old Mizzulo. But there's going to be a cloud over things, cloud over the whole season,

1:38.7

because their coach is sitting out because he wouldn't keep his hands to himself. The whole

1:44.4

thing is uncomfortable. But again, my theory or my quick take that they did, that this was not easy,

1:52.6

that they deserve credit, that this took some guts to just blow the whole thing up and give the

1:57.6

coach the boot because he would not listen. He would not fall the rules and he kept doing this,

2:04.3

clearly this committing this violation. So I think at that point, they had no choice. Unless,
