In this week’s Tuesday Tracker, we asked you again about a Doc Rivers firing, potential interim coaches, playoff chances, and record predictions. Here are the highlights:
* After 61% thought Rivers should be fired before 2026 in last week’s tracker, 90% of over 600 voters now believe he should be fired immediately.
* A small majority of those polled think Darvin Ham should replace Doc as interim coach, with Dave Joerger garnering 20%. Two other assistants got 10%, but 15% prefer someone else from the staff.
* Despite being three games under .500, 59% of respondents still believe the Bucks will make the playoffs, compared with 35% who previously thought they would but now think they won’t. Last week, 59% also thought the Bucks were still a playoff team.
* The schedule is a fair bit easier this month than it was in November, but still 63% think the Bucks won’t be above .500 when the calendar flips to January.
* Doc Rivers’ approval rating hit a record low this week at 2%. For perspective, that’s 11 out of 516 total votes.
* Jon Horst’s approval rating sunk to 34% from 51% last week, perhaps due to Rivers’ continued employment.
Thanks again for voting! Check back on Tuesday for another slate of questions.
