When former Philadelphia 76ers coach Doc Rivers returned to the City of Brotherly Love for the first time since he was hired by the Milwaukee Bucks in January, he received a reception contrary to Philly’s popular moniker.
On Sunday, Rivers’s Bucks faced the 76ers in a tense road matchup that pitted the ex-Philadelphia coach against his old team. As one would expect, the Philly home crowd wasn’t too enthused about seeing Rivers on the other side of the court.
Sixers fans began booing Milwaukee during the Bucks’ pregame introductions, and the boos rained down even harder once Rivers’s name was called.
