Head Coach Doc Rivers of the Boston Celtics is questionable as to if he should conclude his coaching career after tonight's game against the Miami Heat in Miami. Doc Rivers is a highly respectable coach and very liked by many. Rivers leaving Boston would be devastating to the true Boston fans. Although if he does decide to leave, he will be leaving with high stature and has the right to his own decision.
He oversaw the development of such youngsters as Rajon Rondo, Al Jefferson, Delonte West and even Gerald Green, getting them to the point that they were deemed to be valuable pieces in trades or potential trades for established stars. Those guys didn't just improve on their own. What Doc Rivers has done for the Boston Celtics, can be discussed for hours. It is on going. He will be highly missed and thus future coaches will have a big hole to fill.
"Rivers doesn't have to apologize to anyone for what he has done in Boston. He's earned the right to say goodbye on his own terms," said longtime Celtics reporter Peter May.
Well good thing we're going to come back for the win tonight - Rondo will be back at the top of his game... Ray Allen won't miss a single three pointer - it'll be great.
