MILWAUKEE -- Doc Rivers has not been officially announced as the Milwaukee Bucks' new head coach, but that is just a formality at this point.
A "formality" is not "just a". It's real, formal, legal, a contract has been signed and it is "officially announced".
...he's agreed to a $40 million deal through 2026-27, according to Shams Charania.
I don't fucking care that he has agreed. "Hey, Milwaukee, I, Benjamin Harris, agree to a $40M contract." That's how much "he's agreed to a $40 million deal" means. Until Milwaukee management and Rivers SIGN THE FUCKING DOCUMENT, what he has "agreed" to doesn't mean shit.
