Sources told ESPN that the Boston Celtics are aggressively trying to trade point guard Rajon Rondo as result of to his high-maintenance personality and his off-court clashes with head coach Doc Rivers. One recurring problem is that Rondo would never visit Rivers for medical advice or accept prescription drugs from him, insisting that his coach ‘wasn’t a real doctor.’
Doc Rivers is your pusher man.

Jeff: Did I do good today coach?
Doc: No, I was just remembering this one time me and Perk got hot fudge sundaes, and he got it all over his favorite shirt. Then again, what didn’t he get chocolate on! Ha ha, oh I miss that boy.
Jeff: You know, I know this one ice cream place that makes great sund-
Doc: Sit the fuck down, Jeff.
Jeff: Sigh.

Because every time he said it, I wanted to smother him with Big Baby.
“No, I’m not even worried about Glen Davis. I think he’s living up to [his Big Baby nickname]. I didn’t even hear it, someone just told me. I’m not that concerned… Let me put it like this: If Baby doesn’t know his role by now, he’s going to be sitting down a lot. I’ll just leave it that simple.” What the fuck? Did he even read what Glen said? Glen had to move around a lot last season with the whole Perkins-Garnett-Wallace situation, and now you add even more big men? OF COURSE HE’S GONNA WONDER WHAT HIS PLACE ON THE TEAM IS! I don’t think Doc’s ever said one nice thing about him. Not one thing. And Big Baby might be one of the most versatile guys on that whole team. I tell ya what, the day Davis, Robinson, Perkins, and Rondo inherit this team from the megalomania of Rivers and the “Tired Three” will be the day the Celtics become a team I respect again.
They [the Lakers] still have not beaten our starting five. Our starting five against the Lakers’ starting five has a ring… . We will be back strong and Perk [Kendrick Perkins] will be there next year if there’s a Game Seven.
Besides flopping? He doesn’t do a lot, actually.

Haters gonna hate. (Also, being a Fisher fan is really weird. I can’t imagine people doing it all season long.)

A secret pact between two 65 year-olds. Each determined to ensure overrated old men continue to dominate at basketball.
I’m just saying, Doc Rivers got lucky in 08 with that team.
Dang… Michael Finley looks older than Doc Rivers….
Doc Rivers looks like one of the Nazis who just opened the ark of the covenant, only the ark contained one of the greatest ballers of all time.
