The Philadelphia 76ers have fired Head Coach Doc Rivers after three seasons. The firing comes after the 76ers blew a 3-2 series lead to Jayson Tatum and the Boston Celtics in the Eastern Conference Semifinals. Emmanuel Acho, Joy Taylor, Ric Bucher, and Cuttino Mobley debate if Joel Embiid should be blamed for Rivers’ firing.

I’ve never seen so many different media go crazy over a sorry a$$ coach. 3 other far superior coaches just got let go and no one cares.
“Players across the league not hooping, and they blaming coaches.” — Fired Doc Rivers 😂
Did he say Embid is the best Center he’s ever seen ? 🤣 while Jokic is running thru the West!!! 🤣🤣 The more love they show Embid for be a loser the more I hate him
The whole organization is dysfunctional. Media just isn’t supposed to put a light on the suit & tie players
Everytime someone on a video or in the comments mention us (sixers) loosing Jimmy Butler, i die a little bit inside. 😒😒😒 And of course his playoff heroics continues. 😔
He is not the MVP… Stop making excuses for FakeMVP..
They put the biggest choking coach with the biggest choker in nba history in James harden and the newest biggest nba choker in embiid soooo why is anyone surprised
And drafted Fultz over Tatum
These blk ppl giving doc black priv is smh and I'm blk..doc is not a GD playoff coach….glad they fired gim
Doc supposedly has problems with playing favorites and his lineups and things like that… or did a few years ago at least.. given.. it’s the nba… 1/2 the coaches have those kinds of problems…
Doc rivers can't be blamed for harden and embiid being terrified in game 6 and 7 .
"The most skilled big I've ever seen"
Farq me give it a rest. There is clearly a much more skilful big playing right now.
I do t think it was ever Doc and any of his jobs or the last 3 teams he’s been on it’s the players. In my opinion
Embib is also a massive problem for 6srers,never good enough in playoff, forget about being great.His money is in the paint,he better learn how to be effective in the paint.
Joy, if u see this, I need your number… I’ll leave my wife for you
This team is bugged out, I’ll take doc over thibs rn. Harden had 9 pts let’s blame doc
So glad 76ers fired that dunderhead.
First guy isn't wrong but good lord is he dramatic
Joy said the thing that I've been saying for I don't know how long. And again I only have this weird perspective because I happen to be a Celtics fan but also a Philadelphia eagles fan.
I can tell when a franchise is not to be taken seriously like the cowboys.
The 76ers Are the cowboys of the NBA. They aren't serious there just an interesting pick when people want to have a hot take
My thing is Doc Rivers got beat by 34 year old HC who should be playing in the league rn🤣
They let doc go because they have to sign harden. They are hoping with a change in strategy they might have s better chance. If James walks philly is in trouble and James knows that. Philly is in trouble with Morey as their gm
Can't believe Harden asked Doc to go to Vegas and he said yes…So you thinking about Vegas when you are in the playoffs. Embid let Smart keep him from posting up at times. MVP is for the regular season and not the playoffs. Hope CAT comes on more
To the sixers complaining it could be worse u could be the bulls Orlando bob cats don’t complain could be worse
Tbh I don’t think doc is the reason they lost I think they would have kept him if both Joel and harden wanted him back and from what everyone saying harden didn’t want him back which is a bad decision harden does not lead to championships
I blame Harden
I like Cuttinos convo pace and cadence way more than Lesean McCoys
That no bad students only bad teachers line is total bs. As a teacher, sometimes a kid just won’t respond and you can’t spend all that time on someone who just doesn’t care. They will grow up or wake up soon enough when they can’t get a job without a diploma. But often people need to learn things through failure.
Yeah your spot just overrated Mann haha 😂
