#Steeven.™ Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 Doc Rivers has not been unemployed for a week. After seven seasons with the Clippers, the coach planned to take a break. Among his plans was to take a year off after 16 consecutive campaigns directing. But shortly after his firing in Los Angeles, the Sixers called him and everything changed. "I love to train, but I was not going to train anyone. I was ready to take a break ... It just depended on the team that was offered to me and if that team, in my opinion, was ready to win," the coach commented in a video conference . In addition to the Sixers, two other teams called him, but he met before with the Philadelphia franchise and liked what he saw. Joel Embiid, Ben Simmons ... "Look at these players, these young players and their potential. Where I think they can go ... It was a job that I just couldn't turn down. That's why I'm here really excited," Rivers commented that he will have They have to put together the pieces of a squad designed to fight for the ring and that has stayed very far from it, which led to the firing of Brett Brown after being swept by the Celtics. There are many rumors about the possibility of the Sixers transferring one of their stars, but the new coach trusts the duo of Embiid and Simmons. "They have won 65% of the games they have played. It clearly works when they play together. This team is loaded with talent. We just have to figure out how to make it work better," he said. Embiid considers him "a dominant center" and Simmons says that "I am not as concerned about his outside shot as the rest. Ben has shown that he can generate annotation for himself or for others. He is an All-Star, a totally defensive player. He is young and I am sure there are things we are going to work on to improve. " His faith is highest in his two stars and in his entire team: "I am confident that we can make this team win and become champions." 4
