Chaos Greets Doc Rivers in His Return to the Garden: The congenitally cheerful and typically quotable Doc Rivers stepped in front of a gaggle of reporters Wednesday morning at a Midtown Manhattan athletic club and acknowledged several of them from his long-ago days as a fiery point guard in New York. “What, the Knicks don’t have media availability?” he asked in jest. Nothing that would be of much use, someone noted. -- The New York Times
