Melo and Bomani Jones on Why Doc Rivers Consistently Underachieves Despite Coaching HALL of FAMERS 

Wouldn’t be mad about that

Nah

Bomani a real chill brother ❤

@@jimtib8206 He won’t do anything but bring that race/political crap to the show.

Hell naw lightskin dude a corn ball Melo gotta get different people soon of later

Tom Izzo

@@adgee5401 aka Tom H to the Izzo

And that ring isn't even an achievement. He's a guy who thinks he's a champ after winning 1 of 10 horse races in a Ferrari. They won in spite of him, not because of him. He's not a championship coach.

That's right it's Glenn not Doc

​@@mkhanman12345yessir 😂😂

And they still hired him as head coach even after failing as a consultant.

Like it easy win titles. That's what u supposed to do

it's on you the player to win...one game at a time...coaches don't play

@@cashrjr23coaches set up players for success so yeah coaches matter and doc is not great but is always being hired

And for some reason everyone really likes them

@@cashrjr23 you’ve never ever played sports, have you? Scouting reports, game plan, in game adjustments, matchups, timeouts, a lot of variables rely on coaching. If you’re curry and your coach matches you up with Giannis, or if your coach subs in a 6’5” high lineup against three 7 footers, or if your coach puts you in the corner all game, or if you take on the toughest defensive assignment and you coach doesn’t sub you out to rest despite the opposing star going down to rest, or if a lineup is not work and you’re hemorrhaging points yet the coach doesn’t stop the bleeding with a new plan, yeah, overcome that as a player 🤦‍♂️

@@iwishiwasthomasshelby Doc does that...but the players these days are soft...a few are real winners...Magic...Kobe...and Jordan were coaches on the court...made coaching easy...and yeah I played in the 70's

Melo has a right to talk and say what he wants he's played in the game and at the highest level. The only critique I can say about Melo is he chased the bag instead of chasing rings.

The irony is immense

Melo is a classic all about his own thing. Never a winner, just a scorer 🤷🏼‍♂️

​@@davidcici11EvolutionMelo is soft and has no right to even call himself a man, let alone a black man. He's more white girl than he is black man

He achieved, but he had bad luck with teammates. Melo was a walking bucket in his prime. Respect on his name!

Think his one of those coaches that seems like he has the answers when talking to owners or GMs who have not played but players instantly know his full of BS.

This is the kind of mindset that hold black folks back. You judge people based on their action, not their skin color. There's good humans in every color, get rid of this white/black mindset. We all bleed red, most white folks are cool to talk to, don't be afraid. Expand your mindset, be free, be bold, be courageous, be kind, be respectful, and most importantly, respect and love yourself. We're all humans, we can and should talk to each other. Love ❤️

@@jimtib8206 shut the hell up

@@jimtib8206I hear what your saying and don’t necessarily disagree but at the same time it’s hard to drop a mindset when the. Conditions of black men and woman are still second to everyone else.

having a malleable personality is what its called. and its not just white ppl, and i wish black ppl learned to exist in crowds other than our own. bro sounded like a jealous slave instead of a man recognizing his own lack of skill

People like to talk about unity and other things, but it’s every man for himself in the professional world. If it’s between me and someone else, I don’t care what race they are, how old, what’s going on in their lives: I’m gonna back myself

Did you ask many people?

@@MD-DOOM Look at the comments

Doc didn't care about black men sticking together. Adrian Griffin had the job Doc wanted. That's all that mattered.

Major facts hit the nail on the head

Lmao 🤣

Nah little finger did some shit tho

@@christianm4876 What did he do im on season 2 lol

@@Ahallatchu oh shit just keep watching shit gets crazy season 3 is when the show takes a turn and it keeps going every season is crazier than the last

Master manipulator.

And your star pulled a Lebron trying to play GM didn't help. But that's the curse of being a small market team trying to keep a star happy.

As a Sixers fan, buckle up. Having Doc as your coach is basketball purgatory.

Yet big perk gets mad when some people say that about Doc

Even if they are tired of him, is that a good criticism of his schemes? These discussions completely ignore what actually happened on the court and during the games.

How does that translate to a good relationship with the players?

@@victormuhammad1393 he is also has been called players coach so don't know what you talking about.

​@@casiocurious8744🗑🗑🗑

​@@casiocurious8744 nahh maddddd ex players dont vibe with dude, it's a known fact

@@BIX-18827DCM mad players? Ok didn't know that.

Don't forget: part race. 😂😂

What a great observation! I'm rarely in the comments on RU-vid but I had to acknowledge this. Just well said. So on point Fam!

He knows how to play the game of thrones

😂😂😂💯

They talked to Doc about the job before hiring Griffin

Melo always does he is very underrated in terms of knowledge of the game

Nah, Marvin Lewis didn't win in Cincinnati but with how bad they were before he got there and how marketable they became during his tenure deserves acknowledgement He's more like the Barry Switzer Those Celtics teams were good because of KG getting in the team and thise Clippers teams were way more entertaining when Del Negro was coaching and Ben Simmons and Embiid were more aggressive when Brett Brown was coaching

Lmfaooo!!! My man is the master of falling up!!! If he wins a ring this season for coaching I won’t know what to say.

@@zakariyyamccullin1005 he's going to choke a 3-1 lead and afterwards, he'll be in discussion for greatest coach of all time

@@motastic1714 Doc Rivers is really buggy from ONE PIECE

Right

Tell that story please

What happened?

Doesn't surprise me.

@@fudgematthew33you have no details dont know these people personally or anything close to it yet you took something you heard and ran with it without question? Smh i always say THE BELIEVER is worse than the liar to me cuz the believer should know better!

That is a failed argument because that ring must hold more weight than 4 rings the way Celtics fans still talk about that championship. Doc has underachieved with every team he has been including those Celtics teams and is the reason they lost that second finals matchup against the Lakers with his poor game adjustments and not making any. He also hasn't gotten to a conference finals since that finals I am alluding to. He is literally the Mike McCarthy and dallas Cowboys of NFL headcoaches. Just not good enough to win it all just good enough to make the playoffs. Their is plenty of coaches who have one ring that are better than him, and their is coaches who don't have rings that are better than him (Mark Jackson, Monti Williams, both Van Gundy brothers). Doc isn't even a top 15 coach in today's league. Highly thee most overrated coach in NBa history who lives off that one ring like that is a lifetime achievement award. Coaches current and former that are better than Doc (no specific order just off the dome) 1. Phil Jackson 2. Greg popovich 3. Nick Nurse 4. Larry Brown 5. Monti Williams 6. Steve Kerr 7.George Karl 8. Don Nelson 9. Rick Adelman 10. Erik spoelstra 11. Pat Riley 12. Frank Vogel 13. Ty Lue 14. Rick Carlisle 15. Ume Udoka 16. Brad Stephen's 17. Michael Malone 18. Tom Thibodeau 19. Mike Budenholzer 20. Red Aurebach 21. Jerry Sloan 22. Doug Collins 23. Chuck Daly

Just means there’s dumb owners n gms.

I would agree with you but one thing is that after Doc is let go those players and teams play better once Doc is gone.

@@alphadog3586 True but still no titles

@@charlesdavis6041 You admit it’s True

You have to look at the coach. He’s the common denominator. It didn’t matter what players he had. They’re blowing a game 7.

He had T mac in his prime too

He is an admirable man with a great character, career, family, and achievements. BUT as fans we would like him to go sit down, reflect, and get off the sidelines. He is better suited for commentary at this point. No one is above critique or reproach.

He knows from his career that part of talking to white people is always telling them they are difficult and bigoted so that they can be manipulated

Colonizer logic is hilarious to me. What are you even whining about? 😂

Bomani will also flame people with the truth. Remember that shirt he had with fake mlb logo the Caucasians. That was epic 😂

Nuggets?

“I’m not black, I’m OJ……..ok”

Maybe his attitude makes players not feel comfortable in clutch situations

Naw those players gotta take blame

You can’t blame the players because the common denominator is Doc rivers. It didn’t matter what set of players it was. That team will get eliminated from the playoffs and blow a game 7.
