The second round just became must-watch television.
If the standings stay consistent, and lets be honest, they will, the Sixers could meet the Bucks and all of Philadelphia will be salivating at the chance to get to the third round with only Doc Rivers in our way. This is the best chance the Sixers have had to get to the Conference Finals since Jimmy Butler was in town. Giannis didn’t want Nick Nurse and instead he gets Doc Rivers. Can’t make this shit up. Can’t wait for the pump up speech when the Bucks are down 15 in Game 7:

We’ll see Doc back in Philly in a month. I wonder if he’ll get booed.
