You can't just talk all sorts of shit and then get emo when one of these athletes responds in a "less than classy" way. The world don't work like that

Wait, Simmons STARTED ALL OF THIS
He called dude a QUITTER on TV...those are FIGHTING WORDS to any athlete or coach. You gonna talk all that and NOT KNOW the entire situation, come on. Simmons deserves every bit of this
I don't know if Simmons did any of that...but Simmons doesn't know what happened behind the scenes between Rivers and Ainge. He said some shit out of anger and emotion that's not based on fact. And I know he wasn't always in favor of Doc Rivers, especially pre-Garnett trade
