Will Doc Rivers get to keep his job if/when the Clippers fail again?

Doc, had one great season at Boston with a loaded team but has underachieved since then. I'm sure that Doc had no clue what Donald Stirling was all about when he took the Clippers job >insert sarcasm<, or was it Chris, Blake & DeAndre that lured Doc in spite of him already knowing he was being hired by a racist owner....And with those guys he could turn a blind eye to what he knew about Stirling until shite hit the fan and he had to act shocked & surprised >insert hypocrite<.....Anywho, you think Doc will be back with the Clippers next season after failing again this season and to underachieve yet again?

The Clippers clearly aren't on the level of the Warriors or Spurs. Don't really see how that would be considered underachieving.

I'd say they did about as well as expected last season as well. Won a tough series against the Spurs and probably should've beaten the Rockets but no one could reasonably expect them to get past the Warriors.

It was BS apparently. Denver contacted them and Clips said no thanks.

Hypocrisy in it's purest form. And very convenient at that.

Doc's lazy eye allows him to watch the perimeter and in the post at the same time. He's like a chameleon coach. Unique talent.

He should lose it, but the Clippers are too invested in their current structure.

He has the ready-made excuse of Blake's blow up, and when they get bounced in the 2nd round (at best), he'll keep his job for one more year.

Doc the GM failed Doc the Coach. I think he's overrated as a coach, but he couldn't have done much worse at finding role players. Matt Barnes was a great fit there, not sure why they got rid of him and brought in an over the hill Pierce.

I lost respect for him after he brought his son in, although he's played well enough to justify it.
