    As a clippers fan…. i am sorry for this tragedy and dumbass move from the front office.

  4. These bitches aren’t going to give me even one game of interim coach Prunty AND I gotta look at Doc Rivers for the rest of the season? FML.

    This feels like when the Packers signed Joe Barry

    YOOO.. WTF… THIS IS THE MOST MONKIEST PAW THING TO HAVE HAPPEN…

  7. mkebrewers27

    Well at least we know we can win at least 3 games in the playoffs

    If it’s a multiple year deal. I really don’t like it. But honestly, for this season, despite his playoff struggles, Doc is probably the best bet out there on the market to bring in and try to figure this thing out in short notice. I get it. He’s not a great coach. But we’re stuck in an awful spot and he at least has some experience with stars in the nba and playoff basketball.

  9. Doc brought in to advise Griffin. Griffin gets fired. Doc gets hired. Was Doc’s advice just bad, or was it bad on purpose to open up the job?

    To be honest there really wasn’t that many good candidates out there. He was one of the better options especially when the main criteria was someone with experience.

    Sir, a second plane has hit /r/MkeBucks

    How is doc any better than mike. This is crazy, Doc is the most overrated coach that shoudnt ever coach in the nba after choking numerous times with stacked teams smh

    He is going to run the offense through Dame, he might unlock him and get the two man game with dame and giannis to flourish. Let’s be positive for bit before we get over ourselves.

    Griffin sucks. Literally anything was better. Rivers has tons of experience and is no longer coaching playoff chokers CP3 and Embiid

    Ok y’all are overreacting. Is Doc a top 10 coach? No. Is he better than Griffin? Yes. Has he won a title with a superstar? Yes.

    And before you tell me about his playoff meltdowns keep in mind that CP3 has always been a choker in the playoffs (hell he choked against us in the finals). Also that magic team in 2002 was the 4th seed and were without a prime Grant Hill. You can argue Philly but Simmons was definitely a problem in the playoffs and harden was not himself.

    All of that is to say that just because we hired him (most likely only for the rest of the season) doesn’t mean we’ll flame out in round 2 of the playoffs after having a lead in the series. Everyone calm down for just a moment.

  16. Fired Mike Budenholzer to hire black Mike Budenholzer.
