Austin Rivers responds to JJ Redick criticizing his dad Doc: “In terms of accountability, your best years in the NBA were when you played for him and the Clippers… It’s just very ironic and kinda weird that you have this energy towards him.”

  1. Rivers had crawford guarding sfs in the playoffs. He deserves to be bad mouthed

  2. Separate_Goat_5406

    ESPN generating fake controversies and then getting other talent to respond to their fake controversy.
    Nobody watches this crap

  3. ilickedysharks

    I know Austin has to defend his dad but JJ really used the tamest, most obvious criticism of Doc that Doc himself proves correct every year.

  4. BabyLeVert

    Ah yes, a player in their prime had their best years. Gotta give credit to Doc /s

    >For someone who is not accountable he seems to always be held responsible

    I mean yeah…. that’s the whole point. He himself tries to put the blame on others while he gets criticized from outside.

  6. Worried-Ad1266

    Don’t they work in the same ESPN studio?? Why not just tell him that to his face

  7. Folk-Herro

    Lmfaooooo you would have thought JJ said Doc was a horrible man and coach. All he said was he sound like he’s making excuses

    first point – agreed – he does get the blame and fired when things don’t go right, it’s not like he just gets a free pass

    second point – STRONG disagree – wtf your team was up 3-1 and NOW they decide yeah we actually don’t care about basketball??? okay sure

    third point – disagree again – so what if the celtics were favoured? you can’t win any series where you were an underdog? why even play then wtf

    fourth point – eh – idk if it was his best years, feels like when he reached whatever the best version of him was he just continued being that with the clippers or even 76ers then

    fifth point – JJ was a fine defender, i don’t really remember many games where he had to be taken out because he was just getting lit up on defense

  9. shakehasbignuts

    That’s false his best years were under Brett brown actually, why is this clown on ESPN?

  10. MrThreebound

    JJ’s best years were under Brett Brown…

    We’re posting First take / espn beef, god we need basketball back

  12. Rationalknicksfan

    JJ always mentions how doc was one of the first coaches to really get him involved in the offense. He gave credit when due

  13. A_SandlerthaGOAT

    I will give it to doc, taking over a team mid season is hard. But the dude has done nothing but make excuses since he got here.

    If he would just shut the fuck up no one would be calling him out.

  14. Doc absolutely would not defend Austin the way he’s defending him lol

  15. jorgelongo2

    Factually wrong, his best years were definitely on the Sixers playing with Embiid and Brett Brown

  16. Master-Journalist920

    “A lot of times WE had to sit you towards the end of games”….

  17. Him saying JJ had to be sat for defensive reasons is also ironic

  18. brilliantbuffoon

    Austin using JJ’s time with the Clippers where Doc didn’t get it done with a ton of talent is actually why we all believe JJ.

    “Dame missed most of those games. Middleton’s missed a lot of games…” You know who else missed games? Every player who puts on a Memphis Grizzlies uniform, but they still beat the Bucks.
