I just don’t understand, man. How can anyone observed Doc’s tenures with the Clippers and Sixers and still think, “yeah, this is the guy that can get us over the playoff hump to a title”.

Must be absolutely incredible in interviews.

I think the Bucks just hope/want a baseline level of competency and hope Giannis can drag them over the top.

[nick.]

if Giannis could overcome Playoff Doc & Playoff Dame, it would truly be the hardest road

CNN

FWIW Yanni is built a little different than frauds like Embiid and CP, so we’ll see what Doctor can do with him.

Yanni still gotta be coached to be put in the right spots . idk if he’s the one for that

 

[DripNick]

i'd def put her on my D list

Drummond needs to talk to Ayton.

Really said this to follow it up with this

 

[ilike turtles]

It aint breaking news if it was reported last night

 

[lovehateself]

"The Bucks are getting the coach they targeted"

more like the bucks were targeted by glen

 

[703 hwy]

Don’t get the obsession with these same passed around coaches.

Bud thought he could ride regular season game plans to a title. No tweaks, no adjustments, anything. Just execute better Guys had to beg & plead with him to be flexible.

Maybe Doc will surprise us all and follow suit but he’s (FAR) more likely to stick to his guns and blame Giannis & Dame after he gets fired, running from all accountability once again

But, this is why we play the games

 

[amitt5504]

Sixers have a package for Murray, Hunter and Bogi if they really want to make that move

 

[Maximus Meridius]

 

[B Sox]

Nets really traded a first rounder for Royce Oneale a year ago though

 

[ill steelo]

Talent equal, I just don’t see how a Doc Rivers team gets past a Nick Nurse team.

Looking forward to that chess match.

Depends on which team employs Tobias Harris

Luckily for Tobi there’s gonna be at least one guy on the other side giving 35+ minutes of nothing too
