As a Knicks fan, I would like to believe in Derek Fisher. But when he is talking crazy like this it makes it a little harder. The Knicks have only won 15 games so far this season with just a few left. It is the worst season in the history of the franchise and while Fisher shouldn’t get a lot of blame for it, he does. Who knew back before the season started how quickly things would fall apart, or that Melo really wouldn’t be anywhere near 100% before shutting it down. It is cool to look forward to next season with a positive attitude, but to say a team this bad could win 48 more games next season is more than a stretch.
You know as a coach that your team looked real ugly on the court if you find yourself apologizing to fans. Last night late in the game as the Cavaliers were blowing the Clippers out of the arena, coach Doc Rivers noticed a young Clippers fan sitting front row even though the game was in Cleveland. Doc felt genuinely bad that one of their young fans who won’t get to see them in person too often didn’t get to see much of a show tonight. Doc let him know next time they will put on a better show but more importantly he probably made the kid a Clippers fan for life.
This might be the toughest coaching job of Doc Rivers career. Not because his team is bad, but now his son Austin Rivers will be playing for him after a trade, making him the first player in NBA history to play for his own father as coach. Rivers will likely not play much but there is a pressure here that most of us can’t feel because at the end of the day it seems Doc is trying to save his son’s young career after not adjusting well to the NBA and it could be tough to separate coaching feelings from father feelings. Doc is the ultimate professional but still, family is life.
