PHILADELPHIA — Addressing the big question about Doc Rivers’ future as the 76ers’ head coach, team president of basketball operations Daryl Morey gave his assurance on Friday that Rivers will be back next season.
“He’s a great coach,” Morey said one day after the Sixers were eliminated by the Miami Heat in the second round of the NBA playoffs. “I love working with him. I feel like I’m learning from him.
“I think Elton [Brand, general manager] and I and him make a great team. And we’re going to see where this journey takes us. But we feel very good about where it’s going to take us, and it’s going to be where we have a chance to win the title.”
