    He’s really using that 2008 championship 15 years later to keep getting jobs

    They simply have to fire him if they have any chance of bringing the bulk of the fan base on board for next year’s season.

    lardbiscuits’ coach, ladies and gentlemen. This clown’s been on every game thread dragging Tobias and Brett Brown’s names through the mud while having the gall to call Doc “our best coach since Larry Brown”

    wack ass behavior

    Why do all the players respect him so much?

    smh. Doc has problems. No doubt. But the current league MVP and a former MVP no-showing for the final 54 minutes of two clinching games is bigger. Where was the on court leadership? Doc and PJ were the only ones in the huddle trying to inspire/remind the team how they got to that point: feeding the big man. There was no on court execution. There was a 7’1”, 310lb pillar in the corner clearing out for BS.

    Embiid should have been attacking. Drawing fouls; getting to the line 15+ times. Taking charge.

  6. Those stats are all terrible but that “12 series losses when having a lead” is kind of loaded considering like 2-3 of them were 1-0 leads. Hardly the type of collapse he’s known for at this point.

    Its Doc Rivers fault that Harden drove into the paint and passed everytime. Its doc rivers fault that Joel played like shit for the most important game od his life. Scapegoat alert!

    Now I’m more upset that Sixers didn’t beat the Celtics in Game 7, when Rondo decided to turn into Steph Curry after his teammates fouled out.
