Doc just killed it coaching today big ups !!!!!!!!

[j804]

He was amazing tonight in time management keeping KG and our guys fresh down the stretch. The defensive switch ups with man and zone, trapping not trapping etc

The play calling we got easy buckets after just about every timeout

Much love to Mr Rivers

What I don't understand though is why was Rondo on LeBron, then on Wade on the final defensive plays.

Could not agree more.

He is absolutely abusing Coach Spo.

Doc was fantastic tonight, even coming emphatically out on the floor to call key time outs! Great job with the play calling down the stretch and switching in and out of the zone defense.

He is absolutely abusing Coach Spo.

In other news, Doc can see better than Stevie Wonder.

Rondo being competitive guy he probably took the initiative to guard their best players. The heart of champion.

Gotta knock him for not playing Sean Williams. He's fresh!!!!

definitely a well coached game by doc tonight. loved the different defenses.

[budMovin]

Did Bill Simmons ever officially apologize for calling Doc the worst coach in Celtics history?

Rondo is harder to drive on than Pierce or Ray and won't bite on an upfake like Pietrus or Daniels.  They couldn't really spare the seconds to bring him down into the post, so the Heat couldn't take full advantage of the mismatch.  Plus, there's always a chance that he can effectively end the game by poking the ball away. 

I liked the move.

I'm one of the quickest to hammer Doc when he screws up. Only fair I give him props when he knocks one out of the park.

 Good job Doc, that was a fantastic job today!

Out of Doc:

"...We just went back man and zone. The last couple of times we went man to man but we switched everything, honestly trying to make it look like a zone, but it was a man to man"

If you are Spo hearing this, you're just ripping your hair out
