Lawrence Fishburne as Doc Rivers in that Donald Sterling movie is going to be hilarious
There is no need for anyone to come to JJs Redicks defense. Doc Rivers was only speaking nothing but facts pull up the stats yourself!
No accountability about the comment about no accountability.
What Doc has forgotten about basketball Reddick eill never now… come on ..complete jive
Total joke..shut up
Doc has his flaws, but a majority of the superstars he's coached have all been chokers come playoff time. T-Mac, CP3, Blake Griffin, Paul George, Embiid, Ben Simmons, Harden. Pierce won nothing outside of Doc Rivers. KG only got out the 1st round ONCE prior to joining Doc & the Celtics. T-Mac still never made it out the 1st round after leaving Doc lmao, unless you want to count his old age days when he was riding the Spurs bench. Kawhi & PG still haven't won a ring after parting ways with Doc & they're on the verge of blowing up that team. None of these guys that I mentioned have won rings after parting ways with Doc. The only notable players who won rings aside from Doc were Ray Allen with the Heat & Rondo with the Lakers. People are acting like Doc had top 20 all-time great players & like these players have won rings outside of Doc, when in reality, he had a lot of chokers who never won anything. Lol
Doc you are wrong, seem his best number is in phi 18-19 under brett brown. He avg 18.1pt best in his career.
Doc is a trash coach
JJ was overrated, and definitely not a coach.
Doc rivers should have beef with himself for always blowing playoff series leads
JJ’s career high in points came with the sixers, he also had many offers before he signed with the clippers. Also signed a one year deal 22 mil with the sixers after he was “benched” with the clippers. Doc didn’t make JJ, coach K did.
Doc rivers saved jj's career. Jj was rotting on the magic bench. Stan van gundy had better dribbling skills than the freakin SHOOTING GUARD JJ. Ungrateful white player😂
Doc thinks he’s slick. Prerending to take the high road while clearly taking personal shots at the beginning of this.
"his best years were with me, he wasn't very affective in the playoffs, i grabbed him from the Bucks and started him which helped his career take off…but i have no issues with him…" you can't take the high road after throwing that much shade lol
He not lying, JJ was a playoff no-show during those Clipper years, Jamal Crawford was as well
literally his best numbers were 18-19 with the 76ers gtfo here doc
I first liked JJ’s analysis and basketball knowledge but more and more his opinions seem tainted with his own agenda. He never criticizes players and is always speaking for them no matter how ridiculous his defense sounds. He’s looking for a coaching gig. He’s always pushing ridiculous LeBron is GOAT propaganda and now we see why
Well he answered it in a good manner. Didn’t talk shit and kept it going…
Why didn’t Stephen a mention JJs comments about doc not being accountable always blaming others?
Doc taking credit for all of Jake success lol
Jj calls out doc for not being accountable and throws his team under the bus then doc throws him under the bus typical doc. I saved your career and you sucked in the playoffs
Doc rivers is talking in narc circles here. Going off on tangents, attacking JJ. JJ isn’t mad about his playing time with the clippers. He had a great career with the sixers after his clippers stint. He has an issue with his accountability😑
Doc going out sad
JJ Redick’s best numbers were actually with the 76ers after he left the clippers…
If you're wondering what the argument was between Pat Riley and Doc. I actually caught the tail end of the argument. I just remember Riley saying "…If we do that we'll end up blowing a 3-1 lead". I think it's quite obvious Doc has tried many times to do what Riley urged him not to lol😅
lol for all the people that says JJ best years were with the bucks. while that was true but doc was the one that unlocked him and started him when he was still a bench player. Doc used him and gave him more chances and drew up plays for him. If you watch the clippers, you would see the clippers ran tons of picks for JJ. If it wasn't doc, he would have to play a few more years to HOPEFULLY have a starter role. Also, with JJ starting and having plays drew for him, it helped him improved so when he was with the bucks he was playing better than he was in the clippers. EVERYONE, not that difficult to comprehen and understand.
I love how it’s ‘beef’ when a commentator does their job and talks about basketball.
So doc did not hear the comments
Audio only in the left ear
JJ Reddick best seasons in the league was in Philadelphia. 2017-18 he averages 17 points a game and 2018-2019 he averaged 18 points a game.. just to clarify
SAS, please tell your audio team to fix the issues, only hearing from the left audio channel and not the right channel.
Gilbert Arenas said it too. Lol. So Steven A-Mouth talk to doc next time about Gilbert. Stevie is a gas lighter. 10mill a year really got to him in the last few years
Wow Doc Rivers is a master manipulator 😂🤣 what does all that have to do wit the fact u always making excues witch is what he said 🤣😂🤣😂
ahaah the "you play small to get gobert out of the floor" from a coach with his supposed knowledge is so funny (and sad) that give you a better understanding about is last ten years record in playoffs…..
accountability lol the players are responsible for wins and losses in basketball not coaches.
Why not Jj smart man and former nba player..common .God bless you Mr.Stephen A.TRUMP 2024😍❤
i want King LeBron coach when he retires.not now as a player.JJ is not fit to the Lakers just saying.
I would like to see JJ as coaching versus Doc.
Doc make sense in his assessment but he’s still a below average coach. He makes excuses for all things. Sounds for weak at times.
JJ was on Orlando team that won the East before he ever joined the clippers
Doc Rivers sucks
I would argue he had better years for the 76ers
Now that JJ is the head coach for the lakers he will truly understand how hard the job is as Doc Rivers said here…..
JJ Reddick maybe didn't start in Orlando… but he was damn good. Similar numbers to when he started in LA. Also, Affalo was the starter in Orlando while Jamal Crawford preferred to come off the bench in LA. JJ's minutes as a bench player in Orlando were the same than when he started with LAC. So Doc talking nonsense.
JJ was an overrated NBA player he wasn’t clutch Kyle korver was clutch
How can anyone talk bad about someone who is clearly better in life???? All this people talking smack they do it hiding on a comment living with their mom still… yet they think they’re better than someone who is clearly better in life
