[Bucks HC Doc Rivers tells @TheFrankIsola & Ryan McDonough about his conversation with ownership after Adrian Griffin was let go.](https://x.com/siriusxmnba/status/1760031256174379018)
Full quote: “Personally, to be honest I told [Bucks ownership] when they called, ‘I don’t understand why you’re doing this.’ And one of things they said was, ‘Well it doesn’t matter. We’ve done it now and we want you.’ And that was a tough one. That’s where you had the hesitation.”

I can only assume that Doc has a fully guaranteed contract.
There is no fucking way lmao
Doc is an absolute dumb ass. Acting like he wasn’t helping griffin and likely had plans to take over before they fired him
I apologize to anyone I’ve argued with about doc, this dude is fucking stupid
Lmao even Doc doesn’t think hiring Doc was a good idea.
doc speaks for the fans
I simply don’t get what he benefits from going and saying stuff like this out loud lol
So full of shit…
Did he say that when he was a paid consultant brought in to supoprt Adrian Griffin?
The ring window is closed 🙅♂️
$40m and he doesn’t even understand why he was hired 😭
This is so fucking funny
This couldn’t be going any more like how everyone joked it might.
Doc you are supposed to say this after you get embarrassed in the playoffs
Doc: “hiring Doc Rivers would be a bad idea!”
Imagine if he was as good at coaching as he is at being self aware
Doc?
More like back-alley chiropractor.
Hey Doc, maybe stop talking.
This doc doesnt take any accountability. He needs his licensed revoked
Us too Doc, us too.
It just feels like this Doc thing is going to go down as historically bad. Like potentially the first domino in giannis asking out bad
Doc: “WTF is y’all doing over there?!”
then he had a choice right? he didn’t have to accept the coaching gig.
not like the bucks said if you don’t sign we are holding you hostage lol
wtf is doc smoking with this stuff
Man publicly shits on employer weeks after signing 40 million dollar guaranteed contract
I don’t understand why you are doing this either Doc
Doc Rivers is an industry plant or something. This is pure comedy. What do Bucks fans think of all this?
Where do they come up with these narratives?
lol Docs agent needs to tell him to shut up.
Doc is a pro at throwing people and organizations under the bus
Glen Rivers
So I said “Gee, this seems like it could blow up in our faces.”, but they said “Doc, we don’t give a fuck we already fired his ass, let’s jump on this fucked-up train together.” So they had me at a crossroads
I thought our guy was the worst 😂
he wanted to coach lebron and ad not giannis and dame
Giannis is gone
This dude likes to manipulate the narrative
PR has to sit this man down & tell him to shut the fuck up. Just stop talking
Doc why would you say this 😂
I’m still waiting for the Griffin tell-all article to drop. He had to have been a mess to get fired. Right?
Doc is a smart guy, gave himself plausible deniability here. After the Bucks lose in embarrassing fashion in the playoffs, a reporter will ask “did you think the Bucks job was the right fit for you?” And he will go “yeah I did but at the same time, back in February I told the ownership that giving me this job wasn’t a good idea. I don’t know what they expected.”
Doc: Fire me, you cowards!
He was advising Adrian Griffin. Please. He pretty clearly orchestrated this. Advising the coach and then seeing him fired and replacing him in 2 days is pretty damn obvious. **It was so so obvious he orchestrated it, that they pulled back the Doc announcement (CNN of all places confirmed it) the same day to make it look less diabolical.**
​
I’m kinda tired of both players and coaches saying clearly false things to the media and trying to re-write reality with their coping mechanism.
I just feel bad for Bucks fans at this point
Lmao is he trying to get fired after 10 games? wtf

Doc to management: I’m the guy you need to take you over the hill, pay me millions
Doc on podcasts: lol wtf were they thinking?
It honestly feels like he is under the “liar liar” spell
