Doc Rivers fired by the Bucks (Shams)

[Damnshow]

Where will Doc (9 Coaching Lives) end up next

Would have to be an incompetent franchise with a primadonna franchise player

in LA it was Chris Paul who wanted Doc
in Philly it was most likely Embiid who was happy with the Rivers choice
in Milwaukee it was Giannis who wanted him

None of the currently guaranteed playoff teams would want Doc. Clippers and Philly are definitely not welcoming him back. Most of teams outside of playoff picture are teams in rebuild and don't need him. I think this time it's finally over for his coaching career.

That's how I was smiling with executives at my old job...

Then got in my car, opened up my laptop, hit send on that 2 week notice, and drove off never to talk to them again

He never gave a fukk. When he was a consultant he made it clear he never even wanted the job and couldn't understand who the owner was hiring him.

What makes you say this? Just wondering because every impression I got was that he was angling for the job behind Griffin's back.

He literally was saying it in interviews that he didn't want the job and he didn't know why they were choosing him. I can't recall which one. I might do a search for it and see if I can find it.

Of course he could be lying. I have no way no knowing if he is.

I think Giannis is way more responsible for Griffin's firing than anything Doc did. They leaked out that Giannis was basically doing whatever he wanted, checking himself back into games on his own, Dame said the team wasn't really running plays down the stretch of tight games... Giannis wanted him out

Not only is he lying his ass off, but this reeks of the same misdirection, throw other folks under the bus, telling on himself bullshyt that Trump does.

Him trying to play it off with some oblivious remark of "I don't understand why you're doing this" as if he couldn't be any more transparent.

Doc knows to how snake his way into opportunities better than anyone, and once he became aware that Giannis wasn't fukking with Griffin anymore, he would've been scheming his way to replace him, and not done his best to help placate and resolve the situation as he should've done as Griffin's "advisor".
