Is it?

If it wasn't for Zaza, I honestly think kawhi and that sas team could have beaten gsw.

He's one of the purest 2 way players when healthy. People say "playoff Jimmy" but kawhi is even better than that.

Mark Jackson was criticizing his switching defense calls pretty early in game 7. You know you’re a terrible coach when Mark Jackson is calling you out during the game.

Rivers is 16-33 in playoff games where his team already has three wins. That’s a win percentage of roughly 32.7%



Doc Rivers teams have also now blown three 3-1 leads, four other 3-2 leads, one other 2-0 lead, and have lost Game 7 at home four times (five if you count the bubble).

He's now 6-10 in Game 7s.

Probably Phoenix.

Milwaukee, Toronto, Phoenix, and Philly firing their coaches is very interesting though.

Overdue. Needed to happen. Doc needs a year or 2 off to rekindle.

James Harden apparently doesn’t want to play for Doc Rivers, per @ramonashelburne

“Behind the scenes, from what I’m told, one person said to me it would be hard for me to see James wanting to come back and play for Doc again.”

There it is.

Healthy Playoff Kawhi is legit.

But "Healthy" and "Kawhi" haven't really gone together in almost 4 years so its not really relevant.

Step 1 of this process was all the reports floating out there that Harden really wanted to go back to Houston.

Popovich

47-35 lost first round
48-34 lost first round
32-39
33-39
34-48
22-60 obviously tanked the season

Not one coach including hall of famers would still have that job
