Milwaukee Bucks coach Doc Rivers sounded off about the upcoming election and Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, and he zeroed in on the racist rally held at New York City’s famed Madison Square Garden on Sunday.
"You want me to do a PSA right now?" Rivers said, eliciting laughter during a Monday night press conference before his Bucks took on the Boston Celtics.
"You know, obviously, I'm biased, and I'm not going to do a 'Pop' here today," Rivers said, referring to legendary San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich, who called Trump a "small," "pathetic," and "damaged man" (among other things) during a recent press conference.
"[Popovich] was right. Everything that he said, you know?” Rivers continued. “If you saw Madison Square Garden, I mean, come on, right?”
Rivers described the MSG rally as “atrocious.”
“If you're a Black man or a woman, or brown, Latino, Puerto Rican or—they hit everybody, you know, and it was awful," he said.
