I’m hoping as a sixer fan they hire Ime Udoka who will actually make players play Defense. This is the same coach that got Boston to the finals.
Let's face that he isn't a good coach. The only ring he got was with the celtics in 08 and that was 1 of 3 against kobe n pau. Terrible in LA and Philly
hes probably gna coach the suns
He's probably gonna go to the other teams they fired their coaches too. It's like they're playing musical chairs between them.
Stephen A finding a reason to drop a celeb name and then attaches some low level basketball analysis. Pushing sports journalism wayyyy down. Learn about basketball so you can provide actual insights!! You have the job, the funds and the name, just get some knowledge.
OVERRATED! Doc has been GRAVY TRAINING on that lone chip he got with Boston; where he had THREE HOF players. He had GREAT players everywhere he went to coach. On the other hand, coaches like Popovich, Riley, Jackson, Kerr, with multiple chips, they’re only good when they have MULTIPLE great players. Then can’t win SH8 in the absence of great players.
I wonder how Ime Udoka feels about all these sexy new job openings after taking the Rockets job a few weeks ago lol
They should have traded Tobias. They didn't use him to his strengths anyways. Should have kept Jimmy instead. Get a young 2 way wing and stretch 4
Jj seems lost for words
This is a long time coming. They gave him plenty of chances but his teams kept losing in game 7's when they had 3-1 leads. At some point the blame has to go to the coach. I know coaches get fired too quick but I think this one was warranted.
They need to get rid of harden as well
James Harden…haha! Well, we know what we will get in the playoffs from him, he's always solid there.
Surprised NOT surprised. 😅😅😅
Stephen A is a secret white man hater, he don't want a white man to be the next coach. It doesn't have anything to do with Harden. Blaming Harden, when you clearly said you don't think he should be the next coach, is cowardly.
Stephen A is a joke. Doc needed to go. Don't be silly.
This is crazy 😮😮😮
The irony is Mike is a consultant for the Pelicans and it looks like he's getting interview for that job
People really thought the 76ers would win
Kyrie & harden both free agents this summer. They gonna join Suns with KD & Booker.
Kyrie + Harden + Booker + KD
🔥🔥🔥
Doc blew 3 3-1 leads his overrated Stephen a it’s giving excuses for his failures he one with big 4 Paul Perice KG Ray Allen Rojan Rondo soundly his top 15 all time coach he needs to retire
Finally Sixers winning the Chip next season 🎉👏
RJ is a great analyst
Ryan Clark on here 💀
doc rivers is garbage.. good riddance.
