The former athlete was led by the coach when he played in Los Angeles Clippers between 2013 and 2017, that is, he knows the head coach of the franchise well. Wisconsin. In the offseason, both became colleagues at the television station.

“So taking a job when you're about to embark on the toughest journey of the season isn't the smartest decision. I even told them, 'Can we wait until the All-Star Game break?' It would have been much better. But the franchise felt that an urgent change needed to be made on the defensive side. And that's what we're doing. The problem is that we are in the middle of the season, with a lot of traveling. Anyway, it’s harder than I thought.”revealed the former player, when echoing Rivers' words, who admitted that the new job is more complicated than he expected.

According to Redick, Rivers never takes responsibility when things aren't going well. The Bucks are great contenders for the title, but are facing a turbulent phase and Doc has seven defeats in ten games ahead of the team. “I’ve seen this (always making excuses) for years. Doc, we understand. Taking over a team in the middle of a season is difficult. Just as it is complicated for a player to be changed in the middle of the campaign. But he always comes up with an excuse. Always throwing your team under the bus. The Bucks lost to the Memphis Grizzlies, a team that is full of G League guys. Anyway, this guy never takes responsibility.”detonated JJ.
