NBA, panchine bollenti: quali allenatori rischiano di più. CLASSIFICA

A Las Vegas, si sa, si scommette su tutto. Tanto è vero che il sito di scommesse "Sports Betting" ha già messo in fila i nomi dei 30 allenatori NBA assegnando a ognuno di loro la quota per un possibile licenziamento. C'è chi potrebbe pagare gli scarsi risultati di squadra, chi le enormi pressioni e chi invece una proprietà con poca pazienza. E anche se tutti arriveranno a "mangiare il panettone" (si parte il 22 dicembre...) non sono pochi i nomi degli allenatori a rischio

21. FRANK VOGEL, LOS ANGELES LAKERS: +7.500 | Ha vinto il titolo al suo primo anno sulla panchina gialloviola, eppure non è nella top 10 degli allenatori più sicuri del proprio posto: “L.A., baby…”, una piazza che mette addosso una pressione pazzesca, soprattutto se alleni LeBron James

16. DOC RIVERS, PHILADELPHIA 76ERS: +5.000 | Una delle firme in panchina più chiacchierate, c’è da scommettere che il progetto di Daryl Morey su Rivers sarà certamente pluriennale. Anche se la piazza non è certo facile…

16. TOM THIBODEAU, NEW YORK KNICKS: +5.000 | Vale quanto detto sopra per Rivers, con l’aggravante che il roster dei Knicks ha senz’altro un livello di talento inferiore rispetto a quello dei Sixers. E allora per Thibodeau forse c’è qualche rischio in più…

28/30 ©Getty

3. LUKE WALTON, SACRAMENTO KINGS: +500 | Mercato deludente e c’erano già prima voci di parecchie insoddisfazioni in spogliatoio, soprattutto tra coach Walton e Buddy Hield. In più la proprietà (Mr. Ranadivé) vuole spesso (e mal volentieri, per il coaching staff) dire la sua... Nuvole scure all’orizzonte per l’ex Lakers

1. SCOTT BROOKS, WASHINGTON WIZARDS: +200 | Coach Brooks può consolarsi: anche l’anno scorso, al via della stagione, era l’allenatore con più chance di essere cacciato. È ancora sulla panchina degli Wizards, ma ora deve gestire anche un personaggio non facile come Russell Westbrook
