2003 Round 1, Magic blow a 3-1 lead to Pistons
2009 Round 2, Celtics blow a 3-2 lead to Magic
2010 NBA Finals, Celtics blow a 3-2 lead to Lakers
2012 East finals, Celtics blow a 3-2 lead to Heat
2015 Round 2, Clippers blow a 3-1 lead to Rockets
2020 Round 2, Clippers blow a 3-1 lead to Nuggets
-Never got past the 2nd round in the West.
-Only 2 playoff series win in 7 years before Kawhi got here.
-Completely FAILED as a GM
Why did everyone even defend this guy in the first place? This guy has never won **** for this franchise and yet everyone worshipped this guy the entire season. It's just baffling reading all the game threads the past season.

Well he's not our problem anymore. I understand all the time wasted with him at the helm but at least now we won't be wasting our talent away.

Don't forget how he used to give the most important defensive assignments to Austin and insist he was some shutdown defender, even though the numbers, eye test, and even his own teammates all said otherwise
Doc literally played Lou, Milos and Austin in lineups together on a regular basis and didn't see a problem with it. That trio made the Lou/Reggie/Trez lineup look like the 2004 Pistons by comparison. It's possibly the worst defensive lineup I've ever seen in the NBA.
Keep in mind, we were told that this fraud was a "defensive-minded coach" when the Clippers hired him. He was going to instill the toughness and discipline that Lob City needed. He then spent seven years only caring about soft volume chucking and rewarding the worst defenders on the team. He owes his entire bogus reputation to Thibs and KG, much like how Norv Turner is only considered an "offensive genius" because of Aikman, Irvin, and Smith.
Sixers fans don't know it yet, but their team is screwed with this guy in charge. And knowing his elite excuse-making skills, he'll still be there even after Simmons and Embiid get traded.

How can anyone be critical of a coaching genius accompanied by an impeccable resume like Doc?

What a **** moron
This (Please Use More Appropriate Word) really had montrezl out there guarding Boban and Jokic the entire playoffs and saw nothing wrong with it.
montrezl is 6-7, 240lbs.
Jokic is 7-0, 284lb, Boban is 7-4, 290lbs.
How in the world is montrezl going to be able to guard these guys?
That's the problem with Fraud Rivers, there's no logic or reasoning behind any decisions he makes.
rivers: nah fam, let's keep having trezz guard Jokic even though he's getting abused out there

76ers have the best record in the NBA.
It's early and I don't know if they've played any good teams yet.
But just saying ...

Doc's Clippers teams usually looked like worldbeaters in the first couple weeks of the season too. It never amounted to anything.
They've also played an easy schedule so far: Wizards, Knicks, Cavs (blowout loss), Raptors, Magic, Hornets, Hornets again.

And just like that, Doc has his first classic Doc loss with the Sixers. An embarrassing loss to a Nets team missing both Kyrie and KD where the Sixers looked like they were entitled to an easy win instead of playing hard.
Sixer fans seem to be either blaming it all on Ben Simmons or writing it off as a "schedule loss." They don't know yet what the Doc experience is like.

Doc's gone. Our point is proven. Now why are we still beating this dead horse? We have a good team and a new coach and season.

For the love of Pete, please I beg the mods kill this moldy thread.
Or, let's have a thread about getting rid of Vinny Del Negro also, if we are going to walk down unhappy memory lane.
Would rather discuss the present, but maybe we should have threads about all our former coaches, at least back to Fitch.
