Doc Rivers is an NBA coach… a former coach of the year and an NBA champion. I'm a slob who sometimes drinks alone, could stand to lose a few pounds, and uses terms like "we" and "us" when referring to his favorite pro teams. So I get why Doc Rivers doesn't want to listen to [...]

Camp is not even a full week old and Doc Rivers is already forgetting to limit KG's minutes. "Today was a day I probably should have taken him out more." That would explain the video we just saw of KG moving around stiffly.  Doc said he was starting and stopping the guys a lot and [...]

Via ESPN.com: Rivers has already come out and said the Lakers are a better team, and were a better team last season.. Chalk this up as pure motivation. Piss of the guys and make them prove you wrong. Anyone who knows basketball, knows this year's Celtics team is loaded and a near lock to win [...]

So tweet the C's KG practiced for the first 75 percent of today's session according to Doc. Maybe we can all stop holding our breath a little when it comes to KG.  We're starting to get the bigger picture and it's not that scary.  After practice, KG said he felt OK. "It went well today. [...]

Someone opened the floodgates on the KG news.  Jess Camerato caught up with some of the Celtics after their charity golf tournament… and they're pretty encouraged by what they see out of KG. “He’s happy, he’s talking more, which I didn’t think was possible,” Rivers said following the USI Shamrock Classic at the Nashawtuc Country [...]

Just the other day, I was blogging about the lack of attention given to the Marquis Daniels acquisition. Turns out, Doc Rivers agrees with me: “Marquis, that’s the guy no one talks about,’’ Rivers said. “I’m really looking forward to coaching him. I didn’t like coaching against him; I thought he was very difficult to [...]

Doc Rivers spent some time in Foxboro this week – talking to the Patriots. His speech was part of the NFL's life-skills presentations. Belichick called it "one of the best presentations we've ever had." “He was awesome and talked about a lot of things that he had dealt with and experienced through his career, from [...]

That's Austin Rivers… as in Doc Rivers' kid who is currently going INTO his junior year in HIGH SCHOOL.  Yikes.  No wonder Florida wanted to lock him up after his freshman year. (Via Loy's Place) [...]

Fanhouse caught up with Doc Rivers, and got this two and a half minute interview on the Celtics offseason moves, what the rest of the league is doing, and how special it is to coach the C's. Interesting take on how the rest of the league is doing.  The "haves" and "have nots" havent' been [...]
