Why did Koby Altman get arrested What we know about Cavaliers executives latest controversy so far



Cleveland Cavaliers president of basketball operations Koby Altman finds himself in an unwanted controversy. Altman was reportedly arrested and charged with operating a vehicle impaired on Friday night. ESPN further revealed that he was charged with "committing a marked lanes violation and OVI."

The incident occurred in Celevaland itself around 9:00 PM. The Ohio State Highway Patrol Troopers stopped Altman before charging him with OVI. Here's what ESPN wrote:

"Troopers initiated a traffic stop and during their interaction with the driver indicators of impairment were observed," the OSHP said, according to multiple reports. "The driver was subsequently placed under arrest for OVI and soon after offered a breath test which he refused."

The Cavaliers executive cooperated respectfully with the troopers, said the Police. Meanwhile, the organization has noted the incident and released a statement too.

"We are aware of an incident involving Cavaliers President of Basketball Operations Koby Altman," the Cavaliers said in a statement Saturday. "We are currently gathering more information and have no further comment at this time."

The unfortunate incident took place just a day before (Friday, September 15th) Koby Altman's 41st birthday on Saturday, September 16th.

The Cavaliers will hope the controversy circling Koby Altman doesn't force them to take strict actions against him. He has been integral to the franchise's success over the last decade. The Cavaliers have seen plenty of extreme lows, but their peak has been just as good.

Altman joined the team in 2012. He was the team's director of pro personnel during their 2016 championship run. Altman took over as assistant general manager in their title defense season. The team made the finals again but failed to get over the hump. Altman was the GM in 2018 when the Cavs made their last finals run, which ended in a 4-0 result against the Warriors.

Cleveland went into rebuild mode after that season. They were among the bottom-feeders in the Eastern Conference. Many questioned the team's brass and front office for the lack of direction in their roster-building process.

However, in 2021, the Cavaliers were back to within touching distance of a playoff spot. They finished with the seventh-best record. Darius Garland, their 2019 first-round pick, and center Jarrett Allen made the All-Star teams that season.

The following year, the Cavaliers acquired Donovan Mitchell from the Utah Jazz and finally made the playoffs without LeBron James for the first time since 1998.

Osho – forget about being aware

Osho – forget about being aware: rather, start enjoying the thought process in OSHO INSIGHTS ON MEDITATION [A sannyasin says that he is fed up with his mind. I feel I’m never here and I never see anything at all. I try everything: I try meditation, I try to be aware, But often I don’t feel it. Osho checks his energy.] Osho – Two things to be remembered…. One: don’t try to stop it. That’s how you are creating the whole problem; don’t try to stop it. It is very natural to you; you will go crazy if you try to stop it. It will be like a tree trying to stop its leaves; the tree will go mad. The leaves are very natural to it. You are a mind person. If you try to become a heart person you will create so much trouble for yourself, and unnecessarily, because there is a way which goes from the mind itself. There is no need to change yourself into a heart person, mm? That will be against your intrinsic nature. Always listen to your nature, follow your nature. To be natural is to be religio...

British victory in Falklands War might spur Argentina to build nukes CIA feared

Agency worried that Argentina's political isolation following defeat could play a role in a decision to advance its nuclear program The CIA feared that British victory in the 1982 Falklands conflict would encourage Argentina's ruling military junta to step up its efforts to construct nuclear weapons, according to a newly uncovered report. Intelligence analysts at the spy agency examining the issue of nuclear proliferation wrote in a secret report that "the Falkland Islands crisis is raising security issues for Buenos Aires that could influence Argentine attitudes towards the development of nuclear technology." The report, dated 24 April 1982, said: "A humiliation in the Falklands probably would encourage the conclusion that the possession of nuclear weapons - or merely the foreign belief that Argentina had such weapons - might have made the UK more accommodating. A major reverse for Argentina in the dispute could persuade it to proceed to build nuclear weapons....
