Just 3 days after he was fired from the Los Angeles Clippers, Doc Rivers has signed a 5 year deal to coach the Philadelphia 76ers.
Rivers won a championship with our bitter rival the Boston Celtics and has been an above average coach for most of his career. He has not had much playoff success in recent years… He had 3 teams who blew a 3-1 series lead.
Rivers takes over a Sixers team that lost in the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs to the Celtics and hopefully he can work with star players Joel Embiid & Ben Simmons.
