Doc Rivers wore a somewhat perplexed look this week when it was suggested to him the San Antonio Spurs look practically unbeatable at this time.
“No, I think you can beat anybody. You just have to match it,” Rivers said. “I’ve never met an unbeatable team. Everybody’s beatable. You’ve just gotta hang in there long enough to do it.”
Rivers, the second-year coach of the Clippers, will lead his team into the dangerous web of the defending NBA champion Spurs in the opening round of the Western Conference playoffs. Game 1 is Sunday night at 7:30 at Staples Center.
