Alright, I was wrong about the Doc Rivers hire, and I was especially wrong about how it would impact the Bucs
0:04
Let's just talk about it. Alright, let's still be clear that the Bucs still have a mediocre 10-9 record with Doc as the head coach
0:10
and it's not as though that they are just dominating every opponent they face right now
0:13
I mean, for God's sakes, Golden State beat them by like 35 two nights ago. But there have been some positive changes, notably in Damian Lillard's play
0:21
Not only is Dame trying on defense and actually looking fairly competent on that side of the ball
0:26
him and Giannis are finally starting to spam pick and rolls in these games
0:30
which is really opening up the offense. And as a side note, this is also probably Giannis' best season of his career
0:37
He has been an amazing pick and roll partner and just dominated all season
0:41
Giannis should be a consensus top three MVP candidate right now, in my opinion
0:46
Obviously, we know how Patrick Beverly is improving the defense. I mean, this guy gives them an edge, which they desperately need on that side of the ball
0:52
In my opinion, they need to get Chris Middleton healthy if they want a real shot at contending
0:56
But if they are healthy, I think they have a shot against Boston
