Always intrigued by stuff like this, when active coaches and players take on media roles. For some reason, it just seems to give their opinion significantly more weight since they’re scheming against (or for) many of the same players they’re covering.
Collins will join Celtics coach Doc Rivers as current coaches lending their services to NBC for a few weeks in London. Maybe they can talk about that time the Celtics be… never mind.
