Doc Rivers was a part of arguably the greatest NBA All-Star Weekend (1988 in Chicago). I asked him what was the turning point from then to now. pic.twitter.com/cNarrjz0eo – 1:20 PM

Doc Rivers was teasing with the Turner crew that he would be in L.A. during the NBA All-Star break while they were in Indianapolis. Now he’s coaching in the game. pic.twitter.com/XO72fPeYI9 – 1:20 PM

Celtics co-owner Wyc Grousbeck revealed on the @TheGregHillShow today that the Bucks called him as a reference for Doc Rivers before his hiring. “I made a truthful statement, of course. I said we would not have won it in 2008 without Doc.”

Brook Lopez had a loose ball on the ground and it got poked away from him. Doc Rivers is convinced there was a foul. No call.
Loose ball goes to the Grizzlies and Vince Williams gets a shot off and Giannis Antetokounmpo fouled him.
Williams to the line for two with 1:07 left. – 10:56 PM

With a lineup of Lillard, Green, Connaughton, Portis and Lopez, Doc Rivers has gone to a 2-3 zone to start the fourth quarter.
They’ve cut it to the lead with it and have the deficit down to 5.
Grizzlies up, 96-91, with 9:56 left. Lillard has another FT after the timeout. – 10:28 PM

Doc Rivers when asked if there’s anything he plans to work on over the All-Star break:
“My short game,” he joked.
He went on to say he’s going to be watching a lot of film to catch up. – 7:06 PM

Frank Madden: Bucks now with a 111.9 DRTG (6th in NBA) in the post-Griff era. Opponent 3FG% is 13th in that span so it’s not just jump-shooting luck either. pic.twitter.com/8MHgpmFK68 -via Twitter @fmaddenNBA / February 12, 2024
StatMuse: Win percentage this season: .698 — Adrian Griffin .200 — Doc Rivers The Pistons and Wizards are the only teams with a lower win% than Doc. The Celtics are the only team with a higher win% than Adrian. pic.twitter.com/R4oLq6jq2E -via Twitter @statmuse / February 7, 2024
Jake Fischer: As an extension of Doc Rivers’ All-Star Game decision, being told Milwaukee’s new assistants Dave Joerger and Rex Kalamian will also abstain from joining Bucks coaches in Indianapolis, as Adrian Griffin’s staff has earned the honor of representing the Eastern Conference. -via Twitter @JakeLFischer / February 4, 2024
