After having won a title with him as his head coach in 2008, it’s safe to say that Hall of Fame Boston Celtics big man Kevin Garnett knows Doc Rivers about as well as anyone in the wider NBA community. So The Big Ticket is an especially worthwhile voice to listen to as KG discusses whether it was fair of Rivers’ last team — the Philadelphia 76ers — to let him go after their former team (the Celtics) beat Philly in the 2023 East semis.
Garnett is joined in the conversation with former Celtics champ Tony Allen on a recent episode of the Showtime Basketball “KG Certified” podcast, where the two talk Doc’s exit from Philadelphia, his past and future, what will happen with James Harden and more.
Take a look at the clip embedded below to hear what KG and the Grindfather had to say about some Eastern Conference post-playoff fallout.
