Doc Rivers furious after loss to Raptors

Doc Rivers could have used a bubble bath and a lemon spritzer on Friday night after he left the Air Canada Centre, or perhaps a Boy Meets World marathon and a full body massage. The Boston Celtics coach resembled a geyser the way steam erupted out of his head during the second quarter of Boston’s 86-74 loss to the Toronto Raptors, and matters didn’t improve much from...

The Boston Celtics traveled to Toronto, following the disappointing overtime loss to the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday night. From past experience, Celtics fans would have thought that the Raptors would be the perfect recipe for avenging there heart breaking, OT loss, to the Lakers. Not so fast.

Both teams played hard for not only an entire forty eight minutes, but an additional five minutes as well for the overtime. In the end the Lakers managed to squeak out with a one point...

If you want to know what went wrong with the Celtics in Toronto, just read my preview. It was spot-on, minus the score.
The highlight of the game was Doc Rivers outburst during a 20-second time-out. Doc walked onto the court and blasted his players. The above screen-grab (courtesy Chris Forsberg) is a timid snapshot of Doc's tirade.
The Celtics sucked. Flat. Out. Sucked.

Had the tirade been directed his way, Glen Davis might have cried. Robert Horry might have thrown a towel. DeMarcus Cousins might have taken the pacifier out of his mouth, asked his mother to stop breast-feeding him and then threatened to throw knuckles.*But when Doc Rivers ran onto the court with his eyes bulging, neck pulsating and a vein popping from the middle of his forehead...

There are clunkers, and then there are games like the Celtics played on Friday night.
Of course, I'm giving the Celtics credit by saying that they actually "played" the Toronto Raptors. I think some more realistic terms would be "walked through," "forgot to attend" and "were in a coma for."
I've seen more energy and aggressiveness...

Embarrassed.
I don't feel any embarrassment but the Celtics better after this game.
That usually happens at the professional level when you take a night off in basketball. The Celtics didn’t seem to care and the score showed with Toronto taking this one easily, 86-74.
Blaming each other for the miscommunications was hard to watch.
Doc Rivers had to call two time outs in a...

Celtics on the low end
With about four minutes left in the game last night, Doc Rivers put his hands on his knees, crouched down, and clapped loudly for his team to play defense, as if he were coaching his son Spencer’s high school team.
