Cant wait to see what team he does this too next?
Can't wait for RDC World to drop a Doc Rivers video 😂
Can you go to Charlotte..so they can at least make the first round? I know you wont get them past it but at least you could get them there
Bucks eliminated in the first round. They could have just given Griff the same opportunity. Positive he would have taken the Bucks to the 2nd round at least LOL
The way these guys acted and talked no excuses,
Especially for doc, still making excuses
Tell me doc doesn’t have an excuse for everything
Carlisle done whooped you Doc….in the west AND east. Got eat it bro.
WHEN DOC RIVERS COACHED TEAMS LOSE ITS DOC'S FAULT
WHEN FRANK VOGEL COACHED TEAMS LOSE ITS "ROSTER CONSTRUCTION "
Imagine Tatum and Brown being hurt with Derek White on a bad ankle, and blaming Joe for losing in 6 to a good team.
Man down doctor rivers
Doc Rivers keeps getting a job
Horse breeding, i under stand you got all the studs
Can’t wait for the awful coaching to make a video on doc.
Gill about to cook Doc
Another trophy 🏆 loss for Doc 😅
Most overrated coach in pro sports history. Only behind Jason Garret.
DOC ALWAYS GOT AN EXCUSE
Worst coach in the league
Doc has had numerous Super Teams and keeps getting chances despite not getting back to the championship with more talented teams.
Doc is easily the most overrated coach of all time. I’ll never understand how or why teams hire him. Guy should coach college or high school because he obviously can’t coach pro.
If Rick Carlisle is not related to Jim Carrey I don't know what to say!… He even sounds like a older version of him 😂. And good luck to the Pacers (Celtics fan)
Everyone else's fault except himself.
Just waiting for RDCworld to flame Doc😂😂😂😂
As a coach doctor rivers it's at least very unlucky, Very, very unlucky.
Hearing him talking about the Exodus of his team in the playoffs again. He's a very nice man, a humble man who do not talk bad about other people. You are a coach for a long time. Why don't you give somebody else The chance to coach in the NB.A….. You do. something else work for ESPN have your own show? I would watch It. God bless you mister rivers
Doc Rivers, outcoached again, should retire from coaching.
How is Doc still in the league
Without players overthinking from coach instructions, let their own instinct be the coach, then you will see the greatest and most entertaining basketball ever played. But coaches are critical for every major American sport.
It's hard to convince all the players to be freemasons, but if you have just one of your guys on each team and that guy can command the lineups and strats to the point that throwing and rigging reg season games is undetectable, then your sport is a money duplicator with sports betting inside information.
Fire Doc Rivers. Excuses, excuses again from Doc Rivers. 4 weeks ago towards the end of regular seanson, Bucks lost to Grizz and Doc says "Gannis was running on fumes" and admitted that he should have taken Gannis out even if Gannis wants to play. If Doc had limit Gannis minutes, he would not have injured at the end of the regular season and get swept in the playoffs to the Paces. I am sick and tired of Doc's excuses.
Bucks will come back next year better than ever and win 2025 championships
Doc Rivers is absolutely the worst coach in nba history and only has and keeps getting job's, cause of his race, no white coach could survive with his record.. no way any excuse can cover up this disaster when he took over from the coach he helped get fired was 30-13. And he keeps getting bragged on for a champ in 08.
Stop hiring black coaches Bucks. this is not a racist slur, but name the 2 more successful black NBA coaches NOT named Lenny Wilkens (and even wilkens was half irish). You wont find any cause they dont exist
These comments are so corny. Didn't see a single one about Carlisle that didn't also make fun of Doc. It's as if people came to the video to clown Doc without listening to the interview. Everyone saying "excuses" but no one discussing the actual content of his responses.
Funny how they actually tanked for this matchup
Smear the Dear
We all saw this coming when Bucks hired Doc. Crazy man kept messing up and kept getting new job on stacked teams just to ruin things over again.
I knew wed hear more doc -scuces
I can’t watch this dude anymore. So many up coming coaches begging for a chance, it ain’t 2008 anymore.
If you play a drinking game with Rick Carlisle saying "you know" you'll be hospitalised after 2 minutes….
Go fire doc rivers
Lol @ doc “take away our 2 best & its gonna be tough to win”
What did they go, 17-20 with gianis & lillard under doc? AND indy took 4 of 5 with healthy giannis in reg season. Doc is by far the most overrated coach in SPORTS history. The only ring he’s got is thanks to pierce kg & ray
i was not sure When indy rehired carlisle. Why go back to a coach who couldnt win 20 yrs ago? But he rly took a young inexperienced tm to a new level. Haliburton has flourished under rick. Lets go pacers!
