Ime Udoka is known for being an extraordinaire on the defensive end of the floor. It's who he was as a player and who he is as a coach.

Udoka is never afraid to call someone out for slacking on the defensive end. He can always be counted on to hold players accountable.

We've seen Udoka walk over to his players on the floor to have conversations with them when they've made mistakes and/or had brain farts, even on the offensive end.

2 moves that prove Ime Udoka is a man of his word.

We've even seen him pull players out of games if he feels they aren't playing up to their full potential.

Udoka has been consistent when it comes to this. Regardless of a player's stature or draft position, if you aren't playing upto par and/or getting stops defensively, you're going to get pulled.

This is the accountability that's been lacking for the last several years.

This past week, there have been multiple instances that have proven that Udoka is true to who he is as a coach.
