Glen Davis Admits Feeling Betrayed by Doc Rivers, Labels Him a ‘Uncle Tom’

Glen Davis had some choice words for Milwaukee Bucks head coach Doc Rivers over their strained relationship.

On the latest episode of Talk With Flee, Killa Cam had a sit-down conversation with Big Baby Davis before turning himself in to serve 40 months in prison for healthcare fraud, and his relationship with Coach Rivers came up. Davis played for Rivers on the Boston Celtics and even won a championship in 2008.

He played for him again with the Los Angeles Clippers, but they couldn't recreate the magic they had in Boston, and he saw his role diminish on the team. According to Davis, that whole time with the Clippers wasn't a good situation, and he just wanted to play, but Rivers had become a completely different person with the role he was given in L.A.

"When you think about that year, yeah I'm not perfect but Doc knows me he knows my heart, he's seen me play, trillions of times, and knows that I'll give anything to be able to play for my teammates and be able to be on the floor. But that year, Houston, you know he takes me out the game and it's heated."

Davis continued, "I say, 'Doc, what you brought me here [for], man? I'm trying to ball, like I'm trying to play.' He looks at me and says, 'Go to the back!' At first I didn't want to to move, I said, 'I'm not going nowhere. You're not about to kick me off.' And then when he got the security...in the middle of a game...for coming off the court and saying, 'Hey, Doc what you brought me here for man. I want to ball. Come on let me eat."

Davis claimed he knew Rivers in L.A. wasn't the same coach he had in Boston, and things had changed. At the time Rivers was the head coach and senior vice president of basketball operations, so his responsibilities came in full force which Davis acknowledged however that didn't mean he needed to do things in a way to "save his own ass."

The 2008 NBA champion added that Rivers had the power to sign his own son, Austin Rivers, and pretty much do anything he wanted. He also mentioned that Rivers preferred working with Davis' teammate Spencer Hawes because he is white.

"Doc likes white guys...he love them...He like Black guys too but a white guy that can shoot," said Davis before agreeing with Cam's assessment that he's deferential to white people.

This isn't the first time Davis has spoken about his fractured relationship with Rivers, as he blamed him for the 2010 NBA Finals loss against the Los Angeles Lakers.

"That was Doc's fault. I blame that on Doc. Doc has a mentality of rolling with his veterans, the guys he feels like got him there," said Davis. "But when you go back to 2010 Game 4, that was my big breakout game. We had to find the energy for something else. It's the same thing for Game 7, Doc."
