Doc Rivers, Patrick Beverley get revenge on former team

As mentioned above, this matchup between the Sixers and Bucks featured an array of familiar faces. The most notable being Doc Rivers and Patrick Beverley. They got to get some revenge on the organziation that moved on from them in the past year.

This matchup meant a lot to Beverley as his situation is far more recent. At the trade deadline, Daryl Morey dealt him to the Bucks in exchange for Cam Payne. He later said the move was done because they felt his role was going to get smaller moving forward. Esentially stating that Kyle Lowry was going to take his spot in the rotation once he singed as a free agent.

For Rivers, it was his first time facing the Sixers since they fired him over the summer. He was coach for three seasons, posting a record of 154-82 in that time. The Sixers decided to dismiss him as head coach after they lost to the Boston Celtics in the Eastern Conference semifinals. Rivers was later replaced by Nick Nurse.

Now with the Bucks, Rivers and Beverley managed to get some payback on the Sixers with a dominant victory on their floor.
