Doc Rivers calls out Charles Barkley, ESPN, and Vegas before popping champagne

Doc Rivers and the Los Angeles Clippers clinched a spot in the playoffs with their win over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday night and then had fun in the locker room celebrating, while calling out some doubters, first.

Rivers, with a bottle of champagne in his hand, yelled about how ESPN, Charles Barkley and Las Vegas all predicted the team would win 33 games this year.

The Clippers have won 45 games thus far this year and will be the only team from Los Angeles in the playoffs.

Gotta think LA’s other team its fans are pretty jealous of this.
