— Arash Markazi (@ArashMarkazi) May 17, 2015 Doc Rivers’ message to the Clippers is the most motivational post-loss speech
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
Doc Rivers knows the pain of losing games and seeing a season end. He also knows far too well what it’s like to have the rug pulled out from under a season thanks to a stunning playoff series collapse. Doc was uniquely positioned to be the perfect person to try and raise the spirits of Chris Paul, Blake Griffin and the rest of the Clippers -- and this thing seriously reads like something out of a movie.
Well done, Doc. This is one of those speeches on the same level as Al Pacino in Any Given Sunday.
