Ik a lot of people like to hate on doc for the likes and trolls… but genuinely any issue on him? Other than the bench lineup I fell like most losses are just direct results of the players and not the coaching.
Do yall think he the main issue or just has some minor flaws and people just exaggerate it for likes and views???

I was at the Lakers game on Saturday and poor shooting was the problem. No amount of coaching can overcome 24% FG and 20% 3P. That said having Kuzma shooting corner 3s doesn’t seem to be working. And just no answer for Ayton who was dunking all night.
Doc Rivers wins wherever he coaches. People love love to shit in him for the 3-1 comebacks, which i totally get, but fail to realize its an accomplishment in itself to get that far. Shit happens
He’s fine in the regular season just bad in the playoffs
Don’t we have this conversation at least twice a year?
When the lineup you run game after game is shit, its either the coach putting the same players on the floor and or the general manager who put the team together with those as the best options. Glad to see parts of this group finally catching on. OP unfortunately is not among them.
Also Glen doesn’t deserve that nickname. Medics get called doc. People with Doctorates can be called doc. Guys who cant get anything more from the same group of players and infact make the record worse and cant change a rotation mid game arent docs.
We’re doing the thing where we blame the coach for players not making shots again huh?
Also I feel like he is experimenting more and trying all sorts of things with what he is provided…. Something we hated Bud for not doing.
Even tho those experiments feel like ass rn all bench lineups defense schemes the season is young and what better time to do it then rn.
Yes. Next question?
His adjustment is, and always has been the problem, that’s why he always had a 3-1 or 3-2 lead but choked eventually
He is, he doesn’t have any offensive schemes. When you watch the opposition they are always able to get wide open shots either at the three or at the basket, it’s never like that for us, we have to fight for every point. Last year he refused to make personnel changes on the floor to counter the opposition.

If they got to deep into the playoffs and it came down to the last game I’d be worried doc blows it. But remember they fired bud, then Adrian griffin and the results have still been first round exits. His issues was last year when it was clear as day what unit they needed to run with in the playoffs, he was too set in his ways and trusting of the players to yank them. Namely kuzma and brook had to go early because they were getting run out of the gym.
I actually feel better about doc with a team that has less expectations like this one. For a regular season coach he’s pretty solid.
