Yahoo Sports

Doc Rivers: I just don't like that this is so public and it shouldn't be. This is where grown men get in a room and they talk it out. Whether they agree or disagree, that doesn't matter.

Um but this should not be public and I don't like that. Q. In that regard, how much concern is there about the future of the relationship between the team and Giannis based on what everything that’s… Rivers: I don't know.

I have a great relationship with him. I know that part. Literally, we talk almost every day or every day that we can around each other.

So, I think there's a lot of business to be done and I'm out of the business of trying to this is subliminal messaging or all that crap I've heard, all the stuff. I just want everybody to be on the same side cuz they deserve it, all of them. I don't think there's a bad person in this group.

None of the guys that I'm talking about. I do. I think they're all good people.
