I agree with what Stephen A. Smith said earlier today on “First Take”: this is Doc Rivers last chance at coaching. That ring he won in 2008 with the Celtics is so long ago now. And the pressure will really be on Doc to win iit all what with the shocking firing of Adrian Griffin, who only had a record of 30-13 when he got the boot. Of course, Rivers will need the Bucks to start playing SOME defense, he’ll have to appease Damian Lillard and he has to hope that Khris Middleton can return to the guy we saw in 2021 and frankly speaking, the Bucks should try to find some way to get P.J. Tucker back. In other words, Doc really has his work cut out for him because anything less than a championship ain’t cutting it.
