    He will throw someone under the bus, that's his way. The refs, his immature players, whoever.

    Then he'll tell anyone who'll listen that Lue & Cassell need to be in the big seat in Chicago or wherever.

    Yes of course... he has an opinion on a lot of things. He needs to go... go cry on MSNBC about all this bullshit. I’m sorry- your job is to win. It’s not all this distraction.

    Screw it. Of course the headline would be racial. That’s bullshit though. You lose up
    3-1 after unloading your future for Kawhi/PG you deserve to have your ass terminated.

    He was never the guy. 2008 Celts won despite him.
    Of course, I am not too pleased with Stevens at this point.
    He is supposed to be an X and O stud. That play call to end regulation was typical of the local YMCA 13 and under league.
    " Okay guys, here`s what we are going to do. Spread out to all four corners and let Jason run the clock down and heave up a contested 30 footer."
    Game was tied. I am screaming for them to run anything towards the hoop.

    Most black head coaches all sports are terrible we see it everywhere

    It is why GM's hate hiring them because they know failure coming but want to fill quotas

    Doc's focus was on BLM. He forgot about coaching and doing his job.

    When he is fired. BLM can hire him as a consultant.

    I would take Mark Jackson at this point over Rivers. He let the players do whatever they wanted and it showed.


    Also......Could have played Noah to help with Jokic and it didn't activate him. Why did they sign him then if they weren't going to use him in this spot???

    Listening to Mark Jackson over the years you know there's two things you're getting from him; milk the hot hand until it stops working, and play you best players until they drop. A conservative type coach from the JVG tree. His style akin to a degenerate gambler, but with overbearing religious beliefs on top. Yikes!

    It takes heart, perseverance, the will to win and hard work to go to the next level. The Clippers are void of all 4.

    What about Popovich JJ??

    Heard the Nets were inquiring about him before they hired Nash.

    Doc Rivers was gutted following the Clippers‘ elimination from the finals, as the Nuggets grabbed the victory on Tuesday night. Following the game, Rivers said he will accept any blame for his team not meeting the expectations.

    “We didn’t meet them [the expectations]. That’s the bottom line. I’m the coach, and I’ll take any blame for it. But we didn’t meet our expectations, clearly, because if we had, in my opinion, we’d still be playing”, he told reporters after the game.

    “I was never comfortable. I just wasn’t,” he added about the Clippers‘ 3-1 series lead. “I just knew conditioning-wise, like, we had guys that just couldn’t play minutes, and that’s hard, you know. I mean, there were two or three times a night where we actually started getting it going, and a guy had to come out. I mean, it is what it is. So no, I was never comfortable. I can tell you that upfront. I told our coaches that.”

    So they weren't in shape because...?
