00:03 The Bucks did make it official a couple of hours ago, or
00:06 maybe they didn't specifically, but all the insiders made it official.
00:11 That Doc Rivers is going to be the next head coach of the Milwaukee Bucks.
00:15 Of course, yesterday they chopped Adrian Griffin, first year, 30 and 13,
00:19 out he goes.
00:20 Talked about it with coach earlier.
00:21 I saw you tweet something out earlier, Joe.
00:25 And since we have this forum, I might as well give you a chance to elaborate
00:29 on what you said, but it certainly made it sound like you said,
00:33 who cares who the coach is, it doesn't matter.
00:35 It's the NBA, basically taking a dig at the association.
00:40 It's not as important as an NFL coach, it's not as important.
00:43 >> No.
00:44 >> This, that, so go ahead, Joe.
00:46 What are you trying to say?
00:47 You're saying coaching doesn't matter in the NBA?
00:50 >> Well, let's call it what it is, Confer.
00:52 In the NFL, Shanahan, McVay, they're great game planners.
00:56 And there's different schemes in the NFL that you don't have in terms of the NBA.
01:01 I mean, the Wildcat, five wide, you have motion.
01:04 You could throw a different defensive scheme in regards to a three,
01:09 four, four, three, five, two.
01:11 What do you do in the NBA?
01:13 Do you leave a defense, you press, man to man coverage, or zone?
01:17 I mean, it's not like we're world beaters here and
01:20 changing the way basketball is played.
01:22 And I tweeted this out, and maybe you could help me.
01:25 We could get some basketball gurus too.
01:27 What is the latest scheme from an offensive,
01:30 defensive perspective that has taken the NBA by storm?
01:34 Are they lining up five players on the perimeter to do the swinging gate?
01:38 Are the first 15 plays in terms of tonight's game with Doc Rivers gonna be
01:43 scripted?
01:44 Yeah, Possession One, Yadis, Hook, just like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
01:50 Number two, we're gonna have game time.
01:52 Take a three with the swinging gate and the screen from the power forward.
01:57 Possession Three, the rope adult, we're gonna bounce past the Yadis.
02:01 He's gonna wait two seconds, and then all of a sudden,
02:03 we're gonna have the power forward or winger coming in for a layup.
02:07 What do these coaches do?
02:09 Be honest with me, what do they do?
02:12 Are they coming up with different schemes?
02:14 Are they coming up with different defensive formations?
02:17 Because there's only so much you could do from an NBA perspective.
02:20 The NBA is like coaching egos.
02:24 The halftime locker room speech is gonna look like any given Sunday.
02:28 Hey, Yadis, you gotta have your head on a swivel, man.
02:31 You gotta pick up that rubber.
02:33 Here comes John down the lane.
02:35 Hey, game time.
02:36 You gotta have a little more edge.
02:39 Use a little more follow through, follow your shot.
02:42 What do these coaches do?
02:44 Tell me what they do.
02:45 >> You're kind of almost making it sound like it's like a babysitting job.
02:50 >> I mean, that's kind of what you're- >> Tell me what plays there.
02:54 >> Look, I- >> I'm just-
02:56 >> There are- >> What are they taking the NBA?
02:59 Nobody plays defense.
03:01 So what do these coaches do?
03:03 Pick and roll, screen, and we've seen it for the last 40 years.
03:07 You know that? >> So you don't think that there's anything,
03:11 what, just manner zone, just play one or the other, just go run a screen, what?
03:16 >> Well, what is the new formation in the league, like five wide, the red?
03:22 Tell me what defensive schemes that Giannis and
03:24 game time are struggling with.
03:26 Please tell me, I would like to know.
03:28 Stop making TikTok videos.
03:29 >> I will agree with you on one aspect of this.
03:34 Do I think it's the major sport where maybe it has the least impact on in game?
03:43 I will agree with that.
03:44 Do I think that they do absolutely nothing?
03:46 No, I do not think that.
03:47 I think there are- >> They come up with,
03:50 in the heat of the moment, 30 seconds left in inbound.
03:53 Okay, but they're not scripting plays for Giannis that we haven't seen before.
03:57 >> You're dealing with a lot more egos.
03:58 You're dealing with, look, and you can't deny, Joe,
04:01 some coaches are better than others.
04:03 I mean, you wanna have Eric Spolstra coaching your team with what he does and
04:07 what he gets out of his team every single year?
04:09 >> Yes, but it's managing the players.
04:12 It's not the scheme or the formations.
