You mean you had the privilege of watching the only period of relevancy in recent memory for the celtics while he was head coach?

..... Because of Garnett, Ray, and Pierce?

Did you even watch the Celtics Pre- Garnett and Ray? When they lost 18 in a row one year and the crowd was cheering to get Doc Rivers fired? Stop it breh :heh:

People forget he was coaching that orl tmac team that blew a 3-1 lead vs Detroit. He's definitely overrated.

And you forget that Orl squad was overaconceiving trash that was perfectly capable of losing 3 games in a row

I agree 100000%.

I've seen Doc lose so many games with his terrible coaching decisions. fukk that nikka.

@UpAndComing

Breh, trust. I know exactly what your talking about. nikka doesn't make adjustments. I hate dukes.

Exactly. And one of my biggest gripes about this nikka. He is hands down WOAT at player rotations/substitutions. Will basically play 6 guys the whole game, and give his bench no burn, then get mad when they get fatigued in the 4th quarter

Just like the 2010 Finals. Celtics up by 13 with 6 min to go in the 4 quarter. Barely played his bench, Rasheed Wallace, Big Baby, Nate Robinson, etc. And got Pierce, Ray, and Garnett worn out towards the end of the game. End up costing them in the NBA title

Then towards the end of the game, he starts drawing up plays for Rondo to take a 3 :snoop:

Overrated in what sense? He's a top 5 coach in the league. You can't call a coach overrated unless you compare him to his peers.

I don't think some people realize how many terrible coaches are in the league.

So what? You put Phil Jackson or Pop with bums and they wont win shyt either. Fact is he made that franchise relevant. Doc Rivers can't make CP3 and passive bum or Griffin a shook fakkit

Larry Brown got to the Finals with bums (Sixers), and Role players (Pistons) :sas2:
