It is going to be interesting to see how Doc does with the Clippers and see who the Celtics will hire

Celtics hired a white guy college coach from Butler university. I've never heard of him and i'm surprised he was hired. I see Doc Rivers got the Clippers job. I heard that Eric Bledsoe and Caron Butler was traded from the Clippers to Phoenix for Jared Dudley and some draft picks and i think it's a stupid trade. Who's gonna be the backup point guard for Chris Paul? Eric Bledsoe was the backup point guard and he's pretty good.

You must not watch much college basketball, because in recent years Brad Stevens has become one of the highest profile coaches out there. He took Butler to the final game of the tournament a couple of years ago. Really it's been a small-time program in the past compared to the big state schools like Indiana and Purdue, so what he's done is very impressive.

For a coach who gets college players to execute a disciplined offense, you won't find any better -- but how well that will translate to the NBA is still in question.
