Jason Smith: “CNN is reporting that Doc Rivers has accepted the Milwaukee Bucks head coaching position... this happening today after Adrian Griffin was fired following a 30-13 start 2nd best record in the NBA."
Mike Harmon: “We joked about it earlier in the season whether Doc Rivers was going to ultimately be sliding over and knocking Darvin Ham out of his post with the Los Angeles Lakers from the broadcast booth... instead it was an inside job in Milwaukee... Griffin’s consultant (Doc Rivers)… yeah I can advise I can be there and the whole time its laying the groundwork for a COO and that’s exactly what happens."
Jason Smith: “This is new news...and it’s not WOJ and it’s not Shams somehow. How in the hell is CNN breaking this?”
Mike Harmon: “This is what you decide to do? You need to make a change to get yourself back to championship medal and that’s the guy you bring in?"
Jason Smith: “The Bucks will be better this year with Doc Rivers... last year they lost in the first round of the playoffs, with Doc Rivers they are guaranteed to lose in the second round of the playoffs.”
