Doc Rivers has been truly special both this and last season. The LA Clippers’ head coach led the team to playoff contention last season, even after trading away both Chris Paul and Blake Griffin and now has the team sitting at the 6th seed despite not having an All-Star and having traded away arguably their best player in Tobias Harris.
It’s not an easy task to have this team of “role players” where they are in such a superstar driven league. And yet, Doc has coached this team through it all to success that very few, if any, people predicted.
