Former Celtics coach who won title with team in 2008 retires

Doc Rivers has called it a career. The Milwaukee Bucks coach announced his retirement on “The Bill Simmons Podcast. ” “They asked me what I wanted to do.

One of the owners says one plan is, ‘If we do this, you can hang in there for a year or two. ’ I literally said, ‘Oh, no, no, no,’” Rivers said . “I told my coaches, ‘I’m done.

’ I loved coaching. Loved it. I had a lot of success at it, had way more ups than downs.

But at the end of the day, I’ve given 47 years or whatever, I don’t even know how old I am, with no off time,” he continued . “I just wanted a break. I want to get away.
