0:00For the NBA, it's March 5th. Here's what's happening. Make sure you're subscribed so you never miss an update. Doc Rivers has built an impressive NBA coaching resume over 27 seasons, including championships and guiding Hall of Famers to success. He's even ranked among the top 15 coaches in league history, but his current stint with the Milwaukee Bucks is unraveling fast. The team holds a 26 and 35 record, sitting 11th in the Eastern Conference and fading from contention. As last 10 years, Rivers and Squats have repeatedly fallen short in the playoffs, including blowing multiple 3-1 series leads. With Milwaukee, the struggles continue regardless of whether, Yanis and Tato, Eoombo, suits up. Poor rotations, lack of effort, and stalled adjustments have plagued them all season, despite a solid core and proven line-ups. Fans and experts started demanding his dismissal early on, especially after the prior coach got fired when the Bucks were thriving at 30 and, 13th.

1:01The roster has flaws, but the same issues keep surfacing, fueling widespread frustration. Lately, things have gotten worse. Over the past four games, Milwaukee lost by 29, 23, 27, and 18 points. They've been held under 100 points multiple times, and collapsed in second halves, scoring as few as five points in one seven-minute stretch. While players deserve some heat, opponents keep adapting while the Bucks don't. In teams clogged the pain or chase threes, Milwaukee stalls. It's clear the organization must consider a coaching change soon to spark any late season push. D&N is brought to you by our sponsor link in the description. Relax deeper. Reset faster.
