Doc Rivers and James Harden
In a surprising move, the Philadelphia 76ers announced on Wednesday that they have decided to part ways with head coach Doc Rivers. The decision comes after another disappointing playoff exit for the team, failing to advance past the second round once again. The front office made the tough call after three years under Rivers’ leadership, as they seek to make significant changes and take the team to greater success.
Sixers president Daryl Morey took responsibility for the decision during a news conference, acknowledging the team’s need for a fresh start. While the decision ultimately lies with the front office, reports suggest that All-Star point guard James Harden played a key role in Rivers’ departure. According to Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports, several members of Rivers’ coaching staff indicated that Harden’s tired relationship with the coach was a significant factor in the firing.
The relationship between Harden and Rivers reportedly worsened during the recent playoff run. The tension between the two became increasingly apparent, leading to a breakdown in communication and trust. This ultimately played a part in the Sixers’ decision to move on from Rivers, as they prioritize re-signing Harden this offseason.
