How TNT ended up with surprising ‘CNN Sports’ Doc Rivers report
NY Post
Anyone watching the Knicks-Nets postgame show on TNT or seeing the latest Doc Rivers development on social media Tuesday night likely had the same question.
What is CNN Sports?
Adam Lefkoe delivered the news on TNT, citing CNN Sports, that Rivers, who joined ESPN after being fired by the 76ers last year, has accepted the Milwaukee Bucks head coaching job after they fired first-year head coach Adrian Griffin earlier Tuesday despite a 30-13 record.
“Are we ready for breaking news?” Lefkoe began, holding his left hand up to his left ear, indicating he was being told the information. “We have news in from CNN.”
Ex-NBAer Jamal Crawford interrupted, seemingly surprised by where this yet-to-be revealed news was coming from.
“From CNN?” Crawford asked.

Suddenly, someone had hit a rewind button and everyone had been transported back seven months. It was early spring instead of late fall, it was broiling hot outside the arena walls and not freezing cold. Everyone was back at TD Garden. There were 19,156 frenzied fans on their feet begging for blood, poised for the kill.
