Doc is doing a good job

This is my first post to Clubceltics hello everyone.

I'm gonna start by saying that on Doc Rivers I was at one time 100 perent for him, then I wallfed a little after the season started off so badly, I don't think I will waffle again, I want to stick with Doc Rivers. One reason is obvious. Under him we have had three solid young players emerge in Tony Allen, Al Jefferson and Ryan Gomes. Part of our success belongs to Ainge for having the foresight to pick these guys up, bu young players are notoriously inconsisten,t but Doc has managed to make all of them consistent. All three of these guys not only have started consistently scoring in double figures, but thye rebound, defend, make litle plays, and show a very bright future for us. That is all Doc Rivers, this team begins and ends with him, as it does with any coach.

Celtic fans have become extremely impatient as they should be, but tonight's loss has the fire Doc crowd at it again. It was a tough loss that came down to yet another bad play at the end of the quarter by Paul Pierce. I'm not gonna scream that we should trade Pierce, but you can't blame Doc for Piere's bad decisions, and extremely good coverage by Gold State on Big Al. We have something to be proud of right now, a lot actually. Yes we're beatign a lot of bad teams, but at least we're beating somebody, which is more than we could say in years past.

My one beef with Doc will be rectified with time. Sebastian Telfair hasn't shown me much of anything. He was the centerpiece on the draft day trade, but he really hasn't done what he was supposed to. Rajon Rondo is a much better defender and playmaker, but is not getign the playing time. Rondo will emerge with time, and will be as good as any other solid young player we will put on the floor. Doc is doing a good job, I will stick with that until I see evidence otherwise is true.

First and foremost, welcome to the site, thanks for joining up.

You make a good point. I really think we live in a time in sports where coach firings are called for by the fans all too often. Last night's game ended poorly, but as you said no one is going to call for Pierce to be traded. The blame always is dropped on the coaches, whether they are deserving or not.

I'm in Utah so I don't get to see many games at all, so it's really hard for me to say much about Doc. I haven't been able to see enough of his substitution patterns or anything like that, but I'm curious to see what others will have to say.

Its not Doc its the team. How many times have we seen Pierce launch a three while being double teamed with 10 seconds on the shot clock. Pierce isnt a great decision maker and our team is young. No Coach is gonna make them a contender this year or next. Give it another 4 or 5 years.

Doc is doing a good job with the youth. I can honestly say I like what I am seeing of Delonte, Tony, Gerald, Al, Ryan and Kendrick.
I can also see what the "fire doc" chants are about.

Poor substitution patterns
Absolutely deplorable at drawing up plays
Poor clock management
Poor Time out management

For all the good things doc has done with the kids .. he has killed 10 fold with his sub patterns and play drawing. I will say that doc is the right coach for right now, but IMO, that all changes next year and we should be looking for a Bill Fitch or Paul Westphal type coach

Doc is a good teacher, but I'm not sold on his coaching abilities.

My problem with the Doc Rivers and Maurice Cheeks' of the league is this: they are good teachers, and are great players coach (being buddy-buddy with the players). But I don't think this style coach has what it takes to take a team to the next level. I think Doc can get the Celtics to the first round of the playoffs, but not to the second round.

Yea I dont see the Celtics getting Doc to the first round though...at least not this year with this team
