Glen 'Big Baby' Davis: Doc Rivers was 'lucky' to win NBA championship with the Celtics in 2008

Clippers Coach Doc Rivers may have an NBA championship on his coaching résumé, but one of his former players is not impressed.

Glen “Big Baby” Davis played under Rivers for more than six years, including one-plus with the Clippers, and was part of the Celtics’ title run in 2007-08. But when asked this week whether he thinks Rivers is overrated as a coach, Davis replied, “I think so.”

Earlier in the conversation on the podcast “In The Zone with Chris Broussard,” Davis blasted Rivers for the way he handled Davis’ release from the Clippers and criticized the coach for often riding his players too hard.
