Today on The Jason Smith Show with Mike Harmon, Jason and Mike react to the breaking news of Celtics HC Ime Udoka facing disciplinary action by the Celtics for having an improper consensual relationship with a female member of the organization, violating organizational guidelines. Jason and Mike explain and discuss the severity of Udokaās situation and its optics, yet the situation leaves Udokaās job seemingly not in jeopardy, according to major NBA insiders.
Jason Smith: āOne of the big things organizations bring up with workplace relationships and how dicey it is dealing with a relationship where someone who is in a position in power over someone else. This is a female member of the teamās staff. So if youāre on the teamās staff, you kind of report to Ime Udoka. 'Improper-consensual' kind of donāt go together. The fact that itās in the workplace and it being described as being āimproper and consensualā ā Iām just not cool with that.ā
