I don't like how the media treats Darwin ham. They treat him like he did no wrong. He has been a bad coach the past 2 seasons. It doesn't take a basketball savant to know he is a bad coach.
Idk I think Stephen a made a good point… they’ve only lost to the nuggets. They can beat every other team in the league
@@ratcomedywe don't know that. It's basically a flip vs Clippers, OKC and Mavs. All 3 of these teams can beat them in a 7 game series
@@ratcomedyhe’s saying it because he’s a decent coach but being a decent coach when your team want to win a championship isn’t good enough. Give Spolstera this team and they don’t lose that 20 pt lead.
@@ratcomedyA good coach doesn’t lose to the same team 10 times in a row, especially a 20 point lead in the second half, one of his main issues is that he doesn’t understand when to use his timeouts, Malone will see the lakers score b2b and call a timeout, darvin will let the nugget go on a 17-6 run before he thinks about calling a timeout
@ratcomedy if u watch the games u know it's because of LeBron and AD carrying. I mean this coach uses a lineup with 4 guards in it. What more do u need to say he is bad.
Nobody talks about how the Nuggets went on a run and no timeout happened
😂😂 exactly what in the world. How are you not taking a timeout after the lead was cut down under 10 lmao!!! A good coach like spo would have taken a time out at 15 cause he knows how dangerous Denver is and how hot they can quickly get to cut a 10 point lead just like that.
These tv basketball analysts say the dumbest shii
there was a time out in the 3rd
EXACTLY hands in his pockets the whole time
Exactly, this is why I have eastablished a hate/love for these shows. The guy is not doing a good job. No Chill Gill been roasting him all year. No timeout, No real adjustments. Gabe or Dinwiddle should have been on Murray. Lebron stayed on Jovic because he was getting all his point on Ad and the smart choice was to put Ad on Murray but Ad didn't take the assignment seriously and should have crowded his space immediately, forcing him to pass. If they were to make it pass Denver and win a chip, It will be of no help from Darvin.
It’s not a lack of preparation, it’s the lack of in-game adjustments, utilizing timeouts/challenges, & maximizing his players .
I love how the media picks & chooses when to blame a coach lmao.
3 clowns
Thank u
skin color is an important unstated factor
Yuppppppp
Yall blame Ty lue, Luke Walton, Darvin Ham who’s next
I don’t think anybody in the lakers’ front office knows what they’re doing tbh
Same could be said for every NBA team other than Nuggets then. That's the only team that beat the Lakers. 🤷🏾♂️
I agree, ever since they signed LeBron.
@@jaebarnes coming from a lakers fan and i have to say no because this duo they had easily had potential of 2 3 maybe 4 championships...mother fuckers for 4 years straigh tbuilt 0 shooting around two paint dominant players, they never got a pointguard to replace rondo for a big man like ad. they had options to get guy like ty lue,kyrie irving,laurie markennan and bojan bogdanovich yet they stood pat, absolutely horrendous job done with our championship window.
@@monkeyrc7541they won a ring signing bron moron teams are still praying they go to a finals let alone win
Speaking straight facts💯.No Diddy
Maybe Darvin Ham besides being a NICE GUY isnt a good coach. He never seems to make in game adjustments. He just goes out there with the game plan and Win or LOSE sticks to it. That doesnt work in the Playoffs
What adjustment do you want him to do? You have a 40 yr old who play defense part time, a center that is as soft as cotton candy, and guards that no teams ever want 🤷
@ariestonsantos stop hating.
With all that and horrendous coaching the Lakers have almost won every playoff game against them the last 6 times.
So yea....some decent coaching with lineups and adjustments and timeouts.....Lakers win both the last 2 games
@@ariestonsantos tell me you don't know ball without saying you don't know ball
If you don't respect the coach then u are garbage..
@@travissmith6380 prove me I'm wrong?
Darvin Ham doesn’t coach. He stands there staring into space.
Should have NEVER been hired PERIOD . Zero ADJUSTMENTS
Thank God Someone with a brain
So why not keep Luke Walton or frank Vogel and stfu
I get the no adjustments but if LeBron and AD are those dudes win the game
@@Starfrm06
How many coaches have LA had since LeBron? Maybe he's hard to COACH
Here go the scapegoat blaming
“Darvin Ham is only in his 2nd year in the NBA!” - never heard the “Steve Nash is only in his first year in the NBA!”-excuse from Stephen A when the Nets stuggled. There it was used against him.
Nash is white thats why
Darvin was an assistant coach for 14 years before he was a coach…being a coach vs an assistant coach are two different things…steve nash was an assistant coach for ZERO years.
Went straight from basketball to kayaking to coaching a super team.
Ham worked his way up in the coaching ranks Nash just skipped all that and became a coach
@@User-xv1fuand Nash was super trash.
Try listening to the rest of SAS’s point.
Might as well call Ham Bacon because he’s cooked 🥓 🍳

Lol 😂 🥁
LeExcuses strikes again
Corny AF ‼️ That take needs some help... 🤡 Ish.
🤣🤣🤣😭
Funny that Denver doesn't really care about how the media os covering their series, they just chilling and winning 😂
Because they got the media hype in their favor Boston had the best season they don't get that hype
2 more games hopefully and we dont have to hear about this LA team that shouldn't even be in the playoffs.
But the East is very weak @@javarzshinall9396
@@brandoonf6962 I wouldn't put it past ESPN to not talk about the Lakers or James after they get swept, James' has an addiction for attention and he'll post some "cryptic message" or how "amazed" he is at a player's game to possibly recruit the guy or post a video of him "training" for next season or post a photo of a heavily wrapped left ankle and say he was injured this whole time and ESPN will still focus on Lakers and James as the post season progresses. 😂 ESPN lacks when it comes to other players and other teams... well they'll still bash the Clippers since they're also LA but it's too unreal how much focus and material they have on 1 team and player.
SAS doesn’t watch games. Darvin Ham literally might be the one of the worst coaches in the NBA. If you actually watch the games and have seen him in huddles, he’s horrible. Lakers win in spite of him and not because of him.
ITS BECAUSE OF LEBRON YOU FOOL
Stephen A doesnt know the technicalities and the X's and O's of basketball. He has tim legler, windy, and former players with high Bball IQ (Not Perk) to get his basketball talking points from. For the most part SAS is a big market team, Warriors and Klutch Sports hype man. He only knows how to read PPG (Points per game) and how popular and athletic you are. thats it. He wouldnt know anything about scouting players individually or team metrics.
They could've gotten Nick Nurse. Or even Monty Williams would've done a better job tbh.
Unfortunately no might,my friend - i think he is 10000% the worse you can find in the NBA (surpassing even the biggest choker in playoffs history in Doc RIvers and other bad coaches)
Facts only a dummy blames lebron clearly he has no control he didn't get the coach or players he wanted Russ was a choice from palinka he chose between what was offered he wanted DeRozan and ty Lou the lakers turned them down because of what they asked for which wasn't much and ham been messing up line ups for 2 yearz the media hates lebron if they are friends with Jordan for some reason
AD is the only reason Lakers have been competitive in this series. Otherwise it would be two blowouts. He can say whatever he wants.
Facts.
BS you can't have the most points in a game through 3 quarters and in the 4th take 1 shot and yall lose by a shot or 2.
@@derrickcrumpton3165the coach can call a timeout and talk things over if they wanted to run things thru AD in the second half. Instead Darvin saves two timeouts to take home with him.
Facts
He can say what he wants, when he’s been consistently putting up numbers and the team isn’t helping he has every right to criticise
Windy’s the only one who actually spoke from the perspective of Lakers fans. Every Laker fan in their right mind knows Ham’s coaching has been EXTREMELY suspect at times.
All the time!
That’s because he’s been a Lebron dickrider 🍆 since he came into the league. He’s also an apologist for the Lakers or any team Lebron has played on. The lakers blew a 20 point lead, take the L and move on.
Sometimes? That shid been atrocious since the start. Nuggets currently have 190 fga to our 157. That’s insane. Nuggets know they’ll have size thus rebounding thus shot attempt advantage not because they’re that much bigger than LAL but because Ham refuses to play bigger. 3 guard lineup GOAT
Dlo wasn’t missing shots and got subbed. Finished game with challenges. Its really silly the coaching
Darvin Ham is a terrible coach. Point blank period. His rotations are terrible, his ability to make adjustments is awful, and his non-ability to make timeouts is there. Lakers fans have given him enough chances. We are done with Darvin Ham. He’s a nice guy but a terrible coach.
The rotations are bad because we have a bad roster. And that ultimately falls on Rob Pelinka, the GM. That’s who we should be mad at.
Darvin Ham is is a great Great Great Great Great coach he got 2 Winnie babies to coach Labronie baby and Anthony baby Lyons coach give the to ninja a bottle or pacifier 😂 😂
People who say point blank period as a whole sentence.
@@CarolynRay-ef2fd Bad troll, Ham is a terrible coach and you know it
LB is the one that took the ball out of AD hands by playing hero ball in the 4th instead of sticking to what got them the 20 point lead
Facts. That is why I think AD was talking about LBJ
@@MrCarty-qx9dghe wasn’t goofy
AD should have been in the post with hands up to demand the ball
i love how yall don’t bring up how bron scored 14 of the 20 in the 4th & how AD had 4 fouls in the 3rd which made bron come back in the game early and be aggressive
AD shoulda got the ball more, but they also made a defensive switch. Gordon started to guard him instead of Jok
As a Lakers fan I think I speak for all Lakers fans everywhere. WE WANT DARVIN GONE!!!!!
Jeanie won't fire him
Stephen A. Missed the plot ! Darvin Ham is not a championship caliber coach. He makes little to no adjustments in game. He sometimes looks like a Dear in headlights. The Lakers probably wouldn’t even be the 7th seed , they would’ve made the playoffs with at least the 5th or 6th seed had he would’ve used the right rotations to start the season, yes he should’ve started the season with the roster that he eventually was forced to go to. He is a walking punchline. The media coming to the defense of Darvin like this is nasty work! Shows yall really don’t watch the games enough!
look at it on an opposite angle. AD is a veteran player, a leader in Pelicans and Lakers. He KNOWS not to throw the coach under the bus, especially during a playoff run. so why he did it? because the problem is unbearable. Ham is unbearably stupid
Darvin Ham reminds me of Keyshawn on Undisputed, TRASH!! He should not be there. Lakers should’ve gotten Ime Udoka despite the scandal.
lol Keyshawn is horrible. It was cool for a minute, then he got exposed especially on his hoop takes. He does no research and just throws takes off the top of his dome and just wants to interrupt/interject Skip or whoever else as soon as they start their rebuttal. That show is dead, I cannot see them bringing back any of the clowns they have on there. Mind as well have Darvin Ham on there.
It’s funny how Spoelstra is described as the “greatest coach” in the world and almost got swept by Denver in last seasons finals but suddenly when they mention how Darvin Ham’s Lakers only lost to the same Denver Team in the conference finals suddenly the standards change and Darvin Ham is a bad coach 😅
@@Tryme43 Did you watch last nights game 2 against Boston? Without Jimmy Butler and clearly unmatched, Spo was able to make adjustments and have them go back to Miami tied 1-1. Darvin lost BOTH leads whilst Malone was able to make in-game adjustments. Just tell me you don't know basketball (or watch it) and understand attention to detail.
@@5abiXtasy Do you think Miami Heat would beat Denver even with Butler there ? And please don’t answer, it’s a rhetorical question , we all know the answer to that.
Exactly
I dont think Smith knows what he’s talking about, Ham literally doesnt know what to do when the opposed team goes on runs 😭
Oaky … what will you do ? And don’t say what everybody says. The basic stuff. Talk schemes, play, all that.
Quit mistaken your parents for Steven.A smithe he makes twelve mill year
He definitely don’t know what’s he talking about
@@robertvega8358 How about actually calling a timeout when the other team is on a run, Darvin ham specifically said that some of the timeouts are for Lebron and AD to get some rest.... well they looked gassed in the game and Darvin Ham had two timeouts and a challenge at the end of the game
@@CarlosGutierrez-qw6pr jokic looked gassed too. So did Jamal Murray during the interview. Everyone was tired it’s the playoffs. Every star is playing 40 plus minutes
Darvin rotates players that don’t score. He started Vando, he keeps playing Dinwiddie despite his awful mishaps. Not to mention he doesn’t challenge plays or even call timeouts. Maybe the legend Phil Handy got next.
Lakers go through a new coach every two years. Stop complaining and start blaming the players
Vando ain’t played in like months😂😂
When does AD say hey man “when he plays me 4Q I don’t show up”but hey it’s the coaches fault right ?
Darvin scam SUCKS.
Exactly
Who would you replace him with?
It’s funny how Spoelstra is described as the “greatest coach” in the world and almost got swept by Denver in last seasons finals but suddenly when they mention how Darvin Ham’s Lakers only lost to the same Denver Team in the conference finals suddenly the standards change and Darvin Ham is a bad coach 😅
Absolute garbage coach 🗑
@@Tryme43the fact the heat even got a game off the nuggets is a miracle when even LeBron couldn’t
So, it's OK for the media to say it but not players?
Saying it on national TV is real questionable! It's also questionable if a Coach singles out a player on national TV. Keep it in house and fix the problems rather than give the media stuff to feed on!
If Darvin Ham were a White Coach, OH BOY.
Stephen A would be going OFF!
If you weren't a little crybaby, resentful white punk, OH BOY. Boo hoo.
@@cluezybluez Nah, you're just a little resentful crybaby. Save that for the maga rally clown.
Why do the media make excuses for Ham? They defend him likes a tenured coached with championships. It took him 50 games to realize having TP start was a bad idea. He lets teams go on 10-0, 12-0 multiple times in a single game and throws out lineups that doesn’t have much experience with each other. He had a lineup of dinwiddie, Vincent, hayes, prince and they lost a huge chunk of their lead.
AD was correct. The players are clueless because of inept coaching. Ham doesn't call time outs nor make in game adjustments nor call plays, & puts out horrid lineups. The coaching staff, Pelinka, & role players have failed the Lakers.
Facts!!
Why ESPN thought we wanted to see Tim's 7 points 1 assist 1 rebound career stats for his 10 years 💀💀💀
Having a 10 year nba career is no joke especially in the 80’s-90’s stop hating
i didn't agree with a lot stephen a. said, but going 17 mins in the 2nd half without a bucket, you can't really argue with that.
Im convinced the media doesnt watch the Lakers because how do you not see the level of incompetence Darvin Ham has
I’ve never seen one ounce of emotion from Ham. He just looks tired and bored all the time
Phil Jackson showed no emotion during his laker run. Cmon. Please no stupid comments
Bill belichik never showed emotion and got super bowls. So what is your point with emotion ?
Then you've never watched a Lakers game smfh
@@marcusrhill this is the most pointless comment I’ve ever seen. Yes, I’ve watched the Lakers this year, most games in fact. Do you mind enlightening me rather than just making an ignorant comment with no substance?
He just stands there. He’s barely engaged.
Poka face
I could coach lakers with AD and Lebron lol. Ham is blessed
You ain't coaching shi. Would get Boston the last seed probably
The media keeps making excuses for Ham. No way a good coach is losing that match.
Darvin Ham is coaching like Mike Budenholzer's last year playoff run vs the heat. No timeout when other team is making a run.
All the people who are on darvin hams side dosent watch the lakers games..
AD might be right, but keep that in-house while the series still going on. Air it out after you get eliminated. Control your emotions bro.
Lakers weren’t beating Timberwolves, OKC, Dallas, LAC or Denver. They were a play in team for a reason. The media so enamored by the yesteryear and stars that they lost in reality. That’s why all of them picked the Phoenix when anyone who watches one Sums weren’t beating the TWolves
All facts here. NBA media gotta move on from the past. Embrace the new age. Ratings are down because they don’t promote any of the young guys, all the coverage is about Steph KD and LeBron.
Amen
The lakers will beat everybody else but the Nuggets , Stephen A is completely right.

@@salladiallo9766
Lakers wouldn't beat the Timberwolves
There’s no way these guys are serious. Unfair to Darvin Ham?? He’s not a bad coach?? Are we just gonna gloss over the fact that the Lakers started going on a run in the second half of the season ONLY after Darvin Ham FINALLY put Rui in the starting lineup?? They’re literally facing the Nuggets in round 1 because of the bad coaching Ham did during the regular season
the frustration and negative energy the players have after the game 2 loss, we will definitely lose game 3
anyone who has ACTUALLY watched lakers games knows how horrible ham is, all he does is keep his hands in his pockets. teams go on runs? no timeout. this man is still running 3 guard lineups & wonder why they give up offensive rebounds. never consistent running plays other than iso
Isn't Stephen A the same guy who was bashing Darvin for lack of basketball IQ when he wanted AD to shoot five 3's a game? Pot. Meet kettle.
Darvin Ham got no accountability since day 1.
But there literally are stretches where it looks like they do not know what they’re doing…😂
You knew what to do for 3 quarters straight though huh.
It’s called game time ADJUSTMENTS, Ham made None in the 4th quarter
I can understand what you mean but we are talking about vets. Lebron and AD are VETS. Been doing this longer than half this comment section has been alive. They choked. I think Bron ran out of gas he spent half the 4th dribbling on the floor
Ham cannot be defended. He’s legit a bottom 10 coach in the league.
You mean 2 quarters 20 points 3rd quarter no
You’re right Ham isn’t blameless but AD in all these years playing saying he didn’t know what to do at times is a LMFAO moment.
they clearly don’t watch the games .
Beautiful TAKE!!!thnk U...❤ ya...Continue 2 put pressure!!!!!!!@!
Ty lue won in his first season against a juggernaut
That’s who LeBron wanted by the FO decided on the cheaper option where they could hire his assistant for him.
So did Steve Kerr, and Nick Nurse. Being a 1st year nba head coach really shouldn't be an excuse at all.
Agree with Tim leglier 🫡 💯
Me too playa
Leggs - am I done in the makeup chair?
Mortician - NO
It's funny they cape for Ham, then comment that they didn't think he had the correct response to Denver's adjustments. Preparation and adjustments are not the same legs
Jamal didn’t hit the game winner on darvin he hit it on you AD
Lebron needs to get AD the ball. How many times do LA fans have to go through this???
Stupid comment
yup and made him celebrate with them lol
Coach job is to call timeouts and challenge bad refs calls he instead saved 2 timeouts
Was it Ham's fault when they got the 14 point and 20 point lead in both games too? Lol. Players lack accountability it's sad.
What are you talking about? Ham hasn’t gotten ENOUGH criticism. The media has mainly pointed the fingers at the players.

You got to use timeouts when you see your lead shrink and no organization down the stretch because they should be up 2 games if they executed a coaching game plan look at the Heat yesterday and Knicks game plan and they are not talent deep they coach and play with urgency
He hasn't had Ham as a coach for the past two years, the guy just isn't cut out for coaching plain and simple.
Huh?
Darvin ham is a bad coach. Terrible lineups. Didn’t call a timeout when the run occurred. Shoulda ran more sets for AD in the 4th
This segment is terrible. I was at game 1 and when Ham does call TO he doesn’t gather the players, he doesn’t do any adjustments. Doesn’t call any TO’s. Ham just doesn’t know what he’s doing out there. Sorry this segment should be removed. ESPN playing games out here
Why this dude keep talking like he knows what will happen in this post season...when the games aint even half way over? Cmon now. SMH 🤦♂️
Legler & Smith work well together , Legler’s knowledge to the game is superb .

Darvin Ham is the issue he don't call time-outs when needed and what AD said is right sometimes they do look like they don't what they are doing
Although I think he is not a great coach, AD doing this in a series shows weakness. That's not something you wanna show against the Denver nuggets
lol they’re getting swept so it doesn’t really matter
What weakness?
he literally has been saying it all year this has been a thing way before this series!!
Ham gotta live being lebron coach he don’t get held accountable
You posting this shows ignorance. If you followed the Lakers this been a problem for 2 years not 1 series
Lakers should fire Ham this offseason and look to hire Budenholzer, Reddick or Rondo
Scratch Budenholzer, he's a regular season coach. The Lakers should have hired Nick Nurse but they decided to get on the diversity train. Nick Nurse should have also been hired in Milwaukee but they too wanted some diversity train. It is crazy how people get jobs based on color and not resume'.
I would go after rondo
@@adamkumi7122 he's unproven but I guess it wouldn't be a bad idea to give him a chance. Also the other problem is can his IQ really be transferred over. We've seen him get hot headed with teammates before which means an inability to communicate correctly. Usually the sign of a bad teacher.
@@LazyCrazyGuy I think him having lebron and the team being guard heavy could be helpful. He could really help dlo and ar be better and believe they would respect him but also lakers made some bad moves players wise smh

I’m HAPPY he went public with that statement. 🥓 needs to go
Asap im sick with ham
AD’s statement not directed towards the coaching staff. He’s just verbalizing what’s going on among themselves inside the bb court. It’s more directed on Lebron or anybody who failed to feed him the ball as what they have done in the first half.
What is Wendy talking Lakers defense ain't the problem it is the offense they held Nuggets to 101 points 99 points is not good offense and he doesn't use Max Christie off the Bench one of the best scorers on the bench
Darvin isn’t a bad coach. He makes bad gametime decisions. With that 20 point lead there is only one moment in the fourth quarter that he called the time out to stop the bleeding and he didn’t do anything. He needed to stop the momentum and he never did
Speak on it
@@zingisamahlasela he just needed to stop the moment. the Lakers were obviously not making shots on that run. So call the time out discuss it and stop the Nuggets momentum.
@@Stephanlove619 I agree with you mate 🙂
I believe he is ALSO a bad coach. If you’ve watched him throughout the season a lot of his decisions on and off the court are very questionable. Considerably lineups, rotations, and play calling. Have you seen him inside a huddle. He does literally nothing.
@@Blackmagic_874 there is too much of watching Lebron make decisions from him I don’t disagree. Before this series I would have said his Line ups and rotations is his weakest point. But now I think it’s just overall decision making. This series should be 1-1 right now going into LA
AD just upset bcos he got the buzzer beater shot over him then swallowed by up in the Denver crowd celebration 😂
Nobody talks about how AD got trampled on after the final shot 😂he went into the post game heated
Lakers 0-10 versus Nuggets: referees and coaches are culpable⁉
Kobe told Dwight Howard that he was SOFT. But it was Dwight’s defense on Jokic that helped the Lakers beat Denver in 5 back in 2020.
But back in 2020, Aaron Gordon was not with Denver. Neither was KCP who was on that Lakers squad. So let’s say Lakers got Dwight a fourth time, it’s no guarantee Lakers win because Aaron Gordon is big and as strong as Dwight.
I think Denver should get rid of DeAndre and go get Dwight to prevent the Lakers from getting him again. Who Kobe called soft is becoming the Lakers’ savior at beating Denver.
Darvin Ham is a champion as a player and as a coach. He knows how to win !
They guy scored the last shot on you and you blame your coach 😂
Darvin Ham’s coaching has been phenomenal, I understand AD’s frustration because he needs to force feed him the ball. That’s the only adjustment he has to make. AD cannot go more than 3 possessions without a shot, especially if he’s being guarded man to man.
Phenomenal?? Bruh who are you watching? Bro is running line ups of Gabe, Spencer, TP, Bron and Hayes in the playoffs. His timeout usage is abysmal. All of this on top of the lakers progressively throughout games stop running organized offense. That's coaching.

The reality is Darvin all he does is trying to motivate players instead of actually coaching. Dlo say it, And now AD. Its not a coincidence. They are in this position because he didn’t follow what he say they was gonna do built continuity and he did the opposite which was benching all his players that got him to the Conference Finals. Lets get real
lol AD would talk preparation after he finally played ONE 60+ game season as it’s not like he ever got prepared before a season. He really is the last one to be talking, esp after Murray almost broke his ankles.

To laude him just cause he played 76 games , man he is doing his job that he is getting paid for. Let's accept the fact that LeFlop took a horrible shot and missed it. This is typical lakers strategy where you are loosing and you blame game, again skills he picked up from LeFlop
Right I don't get praise for not missing work It's my job

Stephen A. really thought he cooked...AD said the right thing🤣
Darvin Ham cost the Lakers many games this season by not using every timeout and not challenging important plays like the DLO head contact at the end of game 2.
It’s always on the players to perform but it’s on the coach to call the right plays and make adjustments, especially when a team is up double digits multiple times and loses at the end.
This Lakers roster is capable of a championship but has also had questionable lineup rotations from the beginning of the season.
The biggest issue is coaching and you are now hearing it from the players themselves. AD is keeping it 100.
I like that players (Anthony Davis), spoke his mind. I'm so tired of players talking in riddles, or sugar coating things and saying what people want to hear, more players need to speak their minds, good for AD.
Erik Spoeltra would’ve figured this out already for the Lakers. Darvin Ham in game decisions is the reason why the Lakers are 2-0 down
great time to have a feud with your hc, going into game 3 down 0-2
That’s pretty wild.. I never thought about Denver being the Lakers issue. And here we are.. Ham has been fired for losing to the champions. That’s pretty wild that you get fired for losing to the best team in the league and defending champion. I could see if this was some random team in the west. But both years, WCF lost and opening round loss to the champs.
Scapegoat for sure.
“Darvin Ham is only coaching his 2nd year”
-Tyrone Lue coached in his 1st year to beat a 73 win team and win a ring.
