This was my initial thought as well. But I’m wondering if somehow she was reporting to him for work (boss-to-worker situation) where his leadership position would make it unacceptable.
Take a guess at what he did

Ultimate womanizing, saying the only reason nothing happened is because you never initiated it!!
It's highly likely they didn't care for you and/or your attitude, either.
I mean good riddance for Mia, she can do better. Gonna be rough on their kid at school.
It's all about the lawsuits... and The Celtics are a juicy target - they have lots of money and can be easily embarrassed (i.e. extorted) with bad press since they are so well-known.
As Rabbuk says, the authority chain is a big deal, you can't have a relationship with someone who reports to you - appearance of favoritism at minimum. She gets passed over for something, she could sue. She gets something that someone else does not, they could sue.
The relationship ends badly, she can sue and claim it wasn't really consensual, or it became a power thing.
To avoid all this, there was probably a pretty clear company policy saying either "don't" or "inform the company immediately" to get it into the light. And he probably didn't follow that.
Wow, way to twist everything and go a little cray cray there.Ultimate womanizing, saying the only reason nothing happened is because you never initiated it!!

Or...are you the unattractive one that women are not tempted with. It's ok to admit...your ugly...I am as well
Even Neil Armstrong would say that's a giant leap.Ultimate womanizing, saying the only reason nothing happened is because you never initiated it!!

Could be, I'm not attracted to myself I guess.Or...are you the unattractive one that women are not tempted with. It's ok to admit...your ugly...I am as well
I was always young for the positions I held. I usually kept my age quiet and wanted people to believe I was about 5-7 older than I was or I received no respect. Realized after I left my last job that I did have stalkers from that one.
You have to watch out when working in nursing homes. Those CNA's are all cougars after the young maintenance stud.
Yeah, I love the people that are confused as to why this might be a problem, or why at the very least not disclosing it upfront is a violation. Have people not actually worked in a company with any sort of leadership structure or layers of reporting? Having people at the top in relationships with lower level people creates all sorts of potential problems. Maybe it doesn't, but believe it or not, the Celtics' job is to run a basketball organization, and this makes that more difficult if things go sideways. That could be in their relationship, or if she has conflict with someone else in the organization.
I wouldn't jump to the conclusion that they did. There is "team staff" and then their is "team staff". If it anything like the Timberwolves organization there is basketball operations and then there is the entire rest of the team organization. There might be only one woman in basketball operations but there are likely dozens of women in the rest of the team organization including ones who have more than occasional contact with the coaching staff.
Well, maybe this would work. If they were upfront early, they could have had the GM technically hire her and be her boss. I'm sure it would work tremendously. Wonder if that has ever happened?
I guess I need more information on how this warrants a potential season long suspension or worse. I understand the power dynamics issue and how this is problematic...however, these are two adults and the article very clearly states this was consensual. I could be totally off base and if someone wants to correct me, I'm totally open to listening and understanding, but right now I'm a bit confused.
