The Sixers firing Doc Rivers led to mixed reactions on Twitter, with some saying it was deserved and others believing he was a scapegoat for the team's terrible performance in Game 7. JHallNBCS of NBCSPhilly has the story:
The lopsided defeat marked the third straight second-round playoff exit in the head coach's Philadelphia tenure.
Rivers produced a 154-82 record over three seasons with the Sixers, who have built championship aspirations but have fallen short of the Eastern Conference Finals.."This loss absolutely diminishes what we did this year in some ways. It doesn’t for us. I think this team is headed right. I thought we took another mental step this season. And then tonight, I thought we took that step backwards. But that’s OK. That happens, too.
