Doc drops $ 2K

But the trip to the Bay Area is not so bad for head coach Doc Rivers. Rivers said Monday that nearly $ 2,000 had been lost in the streets of San Francisco. But a benevolent stranger made sure Rivers did not part with what, apparently, was considered a way to make money for the Clippers' coach.

Foreigner finds

"Shout at the San Francisco person who was around today – I was walking down the street, true story," Rivers said. "I got into my pocket to pick up my phone. Unbeknownst to me, I dropped about two thousand dollars on the floor in the street, continuing to walk without knowing it.

"The guy m typed in the back and said," It's your money. "I do not know many places where this would happen, but it happened today.

The Good Samaritan apparently did not linger to be praised for his good deed.

Do not stay for a reward

Rivers said that the man had fled before he had the chance to repay the altruistic act.

"Whoever it was, you could have gotten free tickets if you had not run away."

Although it seems that the stranger was not looking for a reward or praise for his kind gesture, Rivers makes sure he knows at least that he is appreciated.
