On tonight’s episode of The Gastroenteritis Blues, Steve and Emily discuss the sad news of the Lakers hiring Darvin Ham as head coach, rather than Doc Rivers. They forlornly discuss what is all but sure to be another year of Rivers coaching the Sixers, and whether or not things with Doc are as bad as they at times feel. Also, what about the widespread fan opinion that Daryl Morey would like to fire Doc if not for Sixers’ owners pinching pennies?
Then, they lash out NBA media voters for once again snubbing Joel Embiid from All-NBA First Team despite ranking second in MVP voting for the second consecutive season.
