Odds on First NBA Coach Fired
Scott Morris | October 24, 2019
Some people think that betting on which coach will be fired is a bit morbid. But, if its going to happen anyway, you may as well take a shot at it.
Earlier this month the first coach in the NFL to be fired cashed as Jay Gruden was given the pink slip after a horrific run of losses with the Washington Redskins. He was the favorite in that prop and most bettors who bet that prop had Jay Gruden.
Now its time to use your NBA knowledge to profit. Which coach will go first? We are only two days into the 2019-2020 NBA season so it is hard to judge anything yet. But some coaches limp into this season after a few years of dismal disappointments.
Will it be Scott Brooks of the Washington Wizards? The coach has had the Wizards team under him the last several years after some success in Oklahoma City. The seat under him in DC is hot.
You can bet props like these at any one of the top sportsbooks.
