I'm sure he was pushed out the door.
I saw the report but still believe he was forced out.
LOL.Remember when folks thought the Lakers would have issues in the locker room?
lol
Just occurred to me.
So Doc is gone and it looks like he'll be replaced by assistant coach Ty Lue.
Remember when folks were saying Vogel would be fired and replaced by assistant coach Jason Kidd?
Doc gets the Philly job and McMillan goes to NO while D'Antoni goes to Indy.
I think D'Antoni should go to the Pels. I'd love to see those kids running his offense. When it's clicking, the other team would like they're herding cats. lol
What do you have against those former Lakers? You don't want them to ever succeed?
lol
I think he'd be great with them. His offense is perfect for the pace they like to play at.
But the end result hasn't changed at any of his stops.
True. They win a lot of games and make playoff runs, but no titles.
The Pels are young and still learning. You bring in D'Antoni for 3-4 seasons, let them run his offense, get used to winning games and making the playoffs, then bring in someone to get them over the top. Just not sure that there's anyone available right now that could stay with them all the way to a title.
There might be more to this Doc firing...it might not be the main reason but just another added factor.
When Paul George was in Indiana he was dating Doc Rivers' daughter.
He cheated on her with a stripper (his current gf).
He tried to pay her $1M to get an abortion and she didn't, so he just stayed with her.
Seth Curry's current wife...is that same girl George cheated on, Doc Rivers' daughter.
Seth Curry was talking mad shit to George in that series. Curry actually had a great series, you could say he outplayed George in that series.
This is when all this news came out and Paul George was talking about his anxiety and depression. It was getting to him bigtime. Just interesting...
Anyways, this could have been one of the reasons Doc Rivers was fired. Having baggage with the star player isn't helping his case. This just adding to all the on the court issues as well as players on the team not respecting Rivers. Too many egos on this team.

Doc lost his dong to coachRivers was lucky to have lasted this long.
