NBA: Evaluating every head coach’s job security headed into the offseason
Dallas Mavericks – Rick Carlisle
Mark Cuban will never fire Rick Carlisle. Carlisle is a respected individual in the coaching space and has given Cuban and his Mavericks their only NBA Championship in 2011.
Nobody has every had anything bad to say about Rick Carlisle publicly, not even Rajon Rondo.
This is only the second year in a row where Carlisle’€™s team didn’€™t make the playoffs. It doesn’€™t matter who’€™s on the team. They compete. They play hard. Expect the Dallas Mavericks to compete again next season with Rick Carlisle as the head coach. He’€™s not going anywhere.
