Celtics announced that they have extended Doc's contract. They didn't say how much or how long. I only hope it is only for 1 year contingent on winning a certain number of games and coaching defense.

Not much of a surprise here. I dont think Doc is a terrible coach I just think that he is more offensively minded and doesnt coach great defensive fundamentals, but the young guys love him.

I know there's something to be said for talent level and continuity of having the same coach... but when that coach makes bad decision after bad decision in game.. well that's not the coach you want to have around IMO.
If we got a top 2 pick or make a good trade this summer, we'll be like the Raptors.
A big improvement, make the playoffs and ppl will talk about Doc turning the team around. Then we'll promptly be outcoached in a 7 game series where you have to make adjustments to win.
