Doc Rivers Done Say Oddsmakers

As we trundle toward the end of the NBA regular season, the chatter around coaches retaining their current positions heats up.

Doc Rivers is making the most headlines as it appears his days in Milwaukee are numbered.

The respected Marc Stein wrote in his "Sunday Best" piece that a league source told him that "there's going to be 8 to 12 [coaching changes]." 

Oddsmakers certainly follow Stein and respect his words, but they disagree with his sources on this one.

BetOnline.ag has posted a full market for which of the 30 current NBA coaches will return to their teams. Six men are favored to not return while the other 24 have favorable odds.  

And, technically, Jordi Fernandez has 1/1 or 50/50 odds, so it's really just five who are odds-on favorites to be fired.

Of course, the big question is...will any of the coaches who have been tasked with tanking get canned? Would seem somewhat unfair to be in that position and then lose your job.

Rivers, Nick Nurse, Jamahl Mosley, James Borrego and Doug Christie are all favored to be fired on the list below.
