Doc Rivers (51) leaves the East to the West. The coach of the Celtics during the 2012-2013 season has committed to three seasons with the Los Angeles Clippers. The Boston franchise has agreed to part with its coach in exchange for the first pick in the draft in 2015.

After nine seasons on the bench of the franchise of Massachusetts sanctioned by the NBA title in 2008, Doc Rivers has signed a $ 21 million with the Clippers.

The leaders of the franchise in California hope that the arrival of Doc Rivers (NBA best coach in 2000 [Orlando] and 2008) will impulse Chris Paul free agent in July, to stay by offering him a five-year lease, and 107 million dollars.
