08:16 AM ET 08.13 | Coach Mike Krzyzewski said Sunday that he would not be back as Team USA's head man in 2016. Naturally, minutes later began the speculation as to Coach K's replacement. Doc Rivers, who has analyzed the Olympic basketball games for NBC this summer, said that anyone who was asked to take over would say yes -- including him. He wouldn't say that he's the best man for the job, though. Instead, Rivers thought another member of NBC's broadcast team would be more suited for the position: Doug Collins. "And there's a reason," Rivers said. "'72." Collins, who served as color analyst for NBC in London, was on Team USA in 1972 when a controversial ending robbed the Americans of the gold medal in Munich.
