00:03 >> Doc Rivers, boy, this has been a little bit of a rough start here as he's gotten
00:07 off to a one and two start as the head coach there.
00:09 I guess this will normalize, right?
00:11 Like this will work out in the end.
00:13 The Bucks clearly saw that it wasn't gonna work out and
00:17 they had to make this move.
00:18 Do you think it was a little premature or
00:19 do you think that this is just the remnants of what was going on there?
00:23 >> Yeah, I think it was a little of that.
00:24 I think it was also he joined the team right during
00:27 a sort of West Coast road trip that is tough for any team.
00:33 Even if you're playing teams that you think, we should win.
00:36 Obviously the loss in Portland looks like a bad loss, but
00:39 there was some added fuel to that fire for the Trailblazers with game coming back.
00:43 So overall, it's not ideal, obviously, but
00:46 it's also one of those things that you just kind of look at and say, all right.
00:50 They went through a transition.
00:52 And I think maybe some of the players had their eyes on the all say there's just a
00:56 lot of things at once you can look at and say, yeah, they started slow.
01:00 The good news for Doc is he's still the coach of the East and
01:03 the All Star game, which is hilarious and amazing.
01:06 And even Doc himself said it was ridiculous, but
01:09 all he needed to do is win that one game and he got it.
01:11 But overall, yeah, I think this will normalize.
01:14 I think the Embiid injury in Philadelphia really knocks them down a peg.
01:19 He'll probably be back, but even if he is, that's another thing that can move
01:24 the box up in the Eastern pecking order.
01:27 And I think a lot of people have questions about Boston, deservedly so.
01:31 And then you got the Knicks who are sort of this sort of plucky,
01:35 scrappy underdog, so to speak.
01:37 That's gonna be a tough out for anyone.
01:39 We know Miami's gonna be a tough out for anyone.
01:41 But I think when it's all said and done, Milwaukee is gonna be right there.
01:46 They'll have righted this ship.
01:48 And then we'll be talking about Doc's problems in the playoffs, and
01:51 this will be long forgotten.
