The Doc supporters have postulated a lot of excuses for Doc's failure to commit to returning to the Celtics for next season. The excuses were numerous; he had to detox, he did not want to and didn't have to rebuild, he was spending too much time away from his family, he does not need the money, one even suggested there might be health reasons, and the list goes on.
As we now know, none of those excuses apply. Doc was doing what I suspected from day 1 - a dishonorable attempt to weasel out of his contract. Doc always seemed to me like a coach who didn't commit to his team and wanted to be a superstar celebrity. He would always let it be known he was sacrificing for the team. Well who amongst you is not sacrificing something when you go to work, and who amongst you gets paid 7 million a year for your sacrifice? Cry me a river I say to these pampered athletes and coaches who get paid mega millions and want to act like people that get regular pay. The reason you get paid 7 million is because of the demands of your job.
The Celtics and DA made Doc the coach he is today by giving him the players and assistants to rack up a good winning percentage and a championship. He has a very selfish way of saying acknowledging that.
I believe that Celtics should fire Doc for conduct detrimental to the team when he told Clippers not to send Bledsoe because he wants to coach Bledsoe. By doing this he interfered with his boss' job and his employer's interest - traitor!!!
