Doc Rivers says that the #Raptors “are who they are”. All about their speed, length, and aggressiveness and the #Sixers just have to do what they can to combat that. – 1:07 PM

Justin Grasso: Doc Rivers on coaching change rumors around the league during the season: “I think it’s disrespectful to all of the other coaches…. It makes our jobs so much harder. I think the Frank Vogel thing was so unfair….. it’s just not right and I hate it” #Sixers -via Twitter @JGrasso_ / April 12, 2022

Snyder, who is known for having very good offensive sets and a solid defensive foundation, has led the Jazz to the playoffs for the sixth consecutive season. He was an assistant with the Lakers while on the staff of coach Mike Brown in 2011-2012. Not only is Snyder under contract with the Jazz for at least one more season, people not authorized to speak publicly on the matter said he has become less interested in the Lakers’ job because of how the Vogel firing was handled. -via Los Angeles Times / April 12, 2022
