I am sorry but we lost because Joe Johnson abused Ray Allen down the stretch and Doc didnt adjust to stop him.

It's Doc Rivers fault that Ray Allen can't play defense?

no not ray allens defensive ability. docs ability to call Tony Allen off the bench after JJ scores his tenth point in a row!

Its Doc Rivers fault that he didnt do anything about. Ray Allen is by far our wost defensive wing player. Either put Pierce on him or sub T. Allen/Posey. We didnt lose because of missed shots. We lost because we couldnt get stop down the stretch.

It's also Doc's fault that PP missed a wide open layup!

Pierce was in foul trouble and Tony Allen is Tony Allen.

I love these from the couch coaches. But Tony Allen in when he hasn't played a meaningful minute all damn series! Yea, that's gonna work. How about the players need to step up and play some freakin defense.

I didnt say that either. But Pierces layup doesnt matter. If we stop Johnson on 2 or 3 of those plays.

You can't coach missed layups. But a Coach can make lineup adjustments due to mismatch's.

What if the player was incapable of doing it. Its not like our offense was doing ****. Tony could of at least played some competent D on Johnson. He is a much better defensive matchup against Johnson. I dont care if he hasnt played at all. Ray Allen has played a lot this series and that didnt stop him from getting abused by Joe Johnson.

I am not trying to pile on. But This has has been Docs biggest problem throughout his coaching career.

I realize that we have the talent to easily win by 15-20 points on any given night. But When game are tight during the final minutes. That is when a coach earns his money.

Couch Coach! do you know what I love? I love these guys that just nod their heads to whatever substitution that a coach makes(or doesn't make) I call them "Coach Dildoes"
