If it’s not one thing it’s another with Doc Rivers.
A man of dual roles, head coach and team president, in a brief tenure with the Clippers he continues to find ways to hinder the team. Early on, Rivers failed to surround his superstars and star center with a capable bench, relying on players either over the hill in age or under the bar in performance to keep things afloat when his go-to guys are on the bench. It failed the Clippers in 2013 and repeated in 2014 — though context shows bad bench production wasn’t the lone reason why the franchise has yet to surpass the second round of the playoffs.
