    Fair or not, Doc Rivers has lost a lot of credibility because of this move. This is one of those what-were-you-thinking? moments.

    Even if Austin Rivers was a decent NBA player why would you put him through this type of scrutiny? Austin is bad, but no one was really paying attention. Now you trade for him and drop 3 players, everyone is paying attention.

    Doc said getting his son was about "Fit" and not "Family". What I want to know is exactly what does Austin Rivers bring to help better their chances at a championship?

    Austin Rivers was all hype when people thought he was gonna be a good NBA player because of his hoops mixtapes.

    Was checking the box scores on NBA.com. They gave Rivers a highlight for his first FG as a Clipper. Lol.
