Simmons has come around on Doc. Somewhat

It is amazing how much better of a coach Doc became when he got Allen and Gernett though

I think Simmons is great when it comes to basketball. He really knows the game and usually has great analysis, but I've always thought he was way off base when it comes to Rivers. I really think he is an outstanding coach.

And yes, he absolutely owned Mike Brown in this series. That was the biggest out-coaching job I've seen since Larry Brown made Philly Jackson his bitch in the Lakers-Pistons finals several years ago.

BS ripped on Doc throughout the 08 championship run FWIW.

And from an x's and o's standpoint, Doc Rivers is nothing special. He's got great assistants and players who are willing to buy in.
