    I could understand his firing if the Bucks were around the .500 mark, but they had one of the best records in the league at the time. There may have been issues, but those issues could of been sorted out with sitting down and talking about it like mature men. That's what good teams do. I think hiring doc will make no difference, especially now they have players with niggling injuries or players out due to personal.

    Hiring Doc will certainly make a difference. Early playoff exit

    Bucks struggles were pretty evident before firing Griffin. But Doc isn't gonna push the needle.

    This is all on Giannis
    He is a Coach Killing Diva
    Let's be clear of that
    Changing plays. . . refusing substitutions . . .who does that??

    He probably wanted to trade Thanasis and Giannis said the coach would go before his brother would.

    I do not care as much about Doc as much as I care about a team firing the coach in the middle of the season....

    That is just a train wreck....

    It was all predictable.
    Top record.
    Middle-of-season coaching change.
    ..... DOC RIVERS?

    Sports coaches are like CEOs. The more the fail, the more they are hired for their "experience".

    PatBev played for Doc with the Clippers. (One of Doc's blown 3-1 lead series)

    Bucks lose to Memphis :D

    Doc has them right where the other eastern conference contenders want them.

    He is a great man if he is still rooting for them.

    Honestly, I bet he is sort of glad to be rid of that bunch. Probably not even following their few W's and many L's.

    On the other hand, I am loving it. :D

    What the bucks did to griffin was dirty and they deserve to loose every single game. I hope griffin gets another shot to coach some other team
