Doc Rivers on Tim Donaghy: 'I'm So Sick of That Guy' BOSTON — Boston Celtics coach Doc Rivers said he’s tired of hearing about disgraced referee Tim Donaghy.

Donaghy was released from prison last
month after serving most of a 15-month sentence in a gambling scandal.
He appeared on 60 Minutes on Sunday night and on a Boston radio show
Tuesday morning, when he was critical of Rivers.

Rivers said he’s “so sick of that guy
right now.” The Celtics coach said he loves the NBA and hates that
“we’re giving a guy like that credibility.”

Donaghy claimed on the TV show that
he bet on NBA games based on his knowledge of other officials’ biases
for and against certain players and teams. He claimed his officiating
was not compromised.
