“for an unspecified violation of organizational guidelines.”

A coach being suspended by the organization is extremely rare. Gallinari’s injury, Rob’s injury, now Udoka’s suspension… what a way to start the season.

100% tampering and Cs trying to get ahead of it before the NBA comes down on them
My guess is there are no team specific rules against tampering. I'm going with innapropriate relationship.

I don't think tampering and/or betting would be under "organizational guidelines". When I hear that phrase, I think of conduct violations... I hope I'm wrong.

So it's a 'violation of team rules' per Himmelsbach. That rules out betting because that's a league thing.

Feels like it has to have been some sort of inappropriate conduct between him and someone else in the organization.  A relationship or abusive behavior being the two most likely things.

not necessarily.  no team would support betting that the league bans.

can't imagine what this could be about. 
- interaction with a staffer as was mentioned above? a fight perhaps? doesn't seem like his style.  last I knew he was still with Nia Long so I can't imagine it's a possible romantic liaison.
- tampering?   who could he possibly trying to recruit from another team? C's aren't really in a great position to trade right now without many assets they can give up for someone of value

Were it the latter, then there's a big news story about to break in Boston and they're getting ahead of it.
Could be the former.  The team will have to address this very soon.

I bet he did something internal involving management. “Don’t be cheap!” is what I’d be screaming.

So I guess Brad takes over? I’m pretty cool with that. But I hope the players buy in.

I hope this isn't true.  recruiting Durant would suggest he's trying to trade Jaylen and I'd rather have Jaylen

Maybe. But other than some sort of domestic abuse, what possible offense could warrant that type of headline? And if it is domestic abuse, he’s probably fired, not suspended. Just a weird weird headline with little details.

Also I don't think this involves gambling. A head coach gambling would probably be perma banned from the NBA. It doesn't sound THAT serious.

Well, if it's between that and or assault/sexual harassment...
