why do we even waste a roster spot with this scrub anymore?

and even more importantly, why does this guy get minutes?

I'm so done with this guy. Fredette needs to be getting this losers minutes for the remainder of the season.

Unfortunately he's so terrible there is no way of possibly trading him for anything, so I guess we can keep watching him dribble around aimlessly and brick layups for the rest of the year.

It scares me how much I'm starting to agree with everything you say.

Doc does not want to coach him and has made that known.

Cut him some slack. Andre Miller is a crafty veteran.

When Andre Miller is punking you, it's time to reevaluate your career. Can't wait to say goodbye to Rivers.

Rivers is bad, but he's not the first PG to get abused by Miller in the post. There is a reason why the guy is still getting major minutes in the NBA and it's not his sweet stroke from behind the arc. The other players on the court needed to recognize and and sag down onto Miller to make him pick up his dribble. Leaving Rivers on an island to defend Miller in the post is never going to work.

Rivers may be a awful defender and a bad shooter and he may not be able to shoot FTs well or find the open man with any consistency and he may turn it over a lot and he hesitates way to much when he does drive by his man that it makes him as a ballhandler pretty much worthless but at least he has heart
