He was a unexperienced coach and it showed, no in game adjustments, bad personnel management, no player development, biased towards "his guys" to the detriment of the team. He earned his walking papers, not to mention the two play in tournament appearances with this roster
Man stop the madness! They won't make the playoffs next season. LeBron better walk before it gets ugly. His son is apart of the next deal coming. People are going to laugh both they ass out the league.
Ham sucks. when your leader did not even know when to take time out, his rotations, his leadership Would you pay your GM that money? Players disrespect him. haters need to watch every games to see how idiot he was.ESPN and other coaches around the NBA have always defend coaches getting fired. If there were their own money and their teams they will do the same. so STFU. Facts.
Get rid of the best player at 39 y/o. AD barely can finish a season w/o getting injured. The fact they lost game 2 after being up huge; in fact being up in 3 games and lost is really the issue. Ham isn't a victim and blaming Lebron or AD is not it.
@@janmoore3849Either way this not good for basketball. Trust & believe this will blow up in their face. I don't see them making the playoffs next year. Teams have gotten better in the west! LeBron got 2 (good) years left!
I think Darvin Ham means well but I said that sadly he may lose his job after blowing the 20 point lead, even before AD made his comments. A coach is supposed to manage this lead to victory in such an important game by putting the right players on the floor....not necessary your star players...and they blew that game which could have changed everything. For Stephen A to blame AD's comments as his reason for being fired is just him meddling in controversy and attaching negative to a player which frankly ,L find< he is too drawn too. Actually, after AD's comments, they played better, winning one game and losing another by the last bucket. And Stephen A should know that AD had to be frustrated because that was the first I ever heard AD say anything of the sort. He is one the most non blaming players ever.
Ham’s is a good guy but his coaching decisions left the Lakers in the play-in tournament. He made glaring mistakes and lacked the ability to adjust in game.
Smdh! The Lakers as a team is inconsistent! The bench is unreliable! Stop it! Plus OKC & Minnesota has gotten better as a organization. That assembling team shit is dead. You have to build for the future. LeBron playoff record speaks for itself.
Let’s be real rob fired him because he didn’t want to be fired period players is there to play ball it’s the general mangers job to bring in new players rob fired him to save his ass period @stevenasmith
ESPN you make me sick, why not dicuss the real problem, and you know who is the real problem it's la choke, worst player to ever put on a Lakers jersey, get rid of James and you will be great of team again Darvin Ham was just a scape goat , so talk about real issue and say his name, what does he have over you all he's just a player, like James said it's just a game, what a flake
This Malika Andrews chick, boy she just at every opportunity, (even digging opportunities up from under a rock) wants to try to stir up trouble. Mentioning Mark Jackson being let go. The situation couldn't be any further from sunrise to sunset, but here she goes. ESPN about on my last nerve with her.
Darvin Ham is not a good coach. He never made adjustments or called plays to keep his team from being al over the place. His character I’m not interested in. They competed and if Ham made good coaching decisions down the stretch Lakers could have won. But he didn’t. Now he’s gone. I watched Ham’s poor coaching the entire season. Good bye
Nope... EVERYONE thought the Lakers got better the off season after the chip...Go back and check if you don't believe. And if AD didn't get hurt they would have possibly repeated. Everyone commenting didn't watch Lakers bball like Lakers Nation dud. Ham was horrible! No adjustments, bad rotations, bad time out management, and so much more. Do some actual research and not just hate or follow what media tells you to be upset about.
@LakerTriangle My point exactly! They weren't better than the team that won the chip.During that time, AD was fragile as a 3 dollar bill, so letting go of some key players that helped win a chip! Made no sense! Yes, D. Ham could have made better adjustments and rotations. I'm not arguing that, however, he is not the only reason why the Lakers failed! There's your research.
Darvin Ham was brought in because he was the guy who was supposed to fix Westbrook. Fact is though, he isn't a good game manager. Lakers could have easily beat Denver with just a few in game adjustments. All through the year he switched up the rotations that worked and undercut everyone's confidence. Being a nice guy, and Wilbon's and Smith's pal while constantly blaming his players aint winning basketball. Good riddance.
These guys taking about Darvin is some kind of savant. They supporting Ham only because he is black and he is LeBron James coach. They don't want Bron to do well. They are MJ guys.

@@501CautionSo why did the other coaches got fired again? Bron has 9 alread in 21 years. You think Bron being older next year is going to get better?
@@BarnzTT Not at all! That's why this will blow up in their face!
A new coach ain’t gonna fix the problem
Ham sucks. when your leader did not even know when to take time out, his rotations, his leadership

But it can’t hurt. Ham was clueless. Nice guy, but clueless. Lakers fans seem to be the only ones who know this.
It's easy to blame the coach the players play like s***LeBron should be the one leaving he's not Kobe Bryant he doesn't have the killer instinct

True Bron does try and make team mates better but he should know when to take over a game I think he's scared he might fail and it's on him
No matter who was coach they were not beating denver
What they fail to talk about is why did phil handy get fired. Phil was a pillar stone for the lakers that you can blame this all on lebum
LBJ needs to be done also
They are only hurt because he’s a black coach. Anyone who followed every Lakers game called for Ham to be gone shortly after the in season tournament.
Facts! I’m all for the culture, but black analysts are just made because a black coach got fired, not because a great coach got fired.
@@janmoore3849Either way this not good for basketball. Trust & believe this will blow up in their face. I don't see them making the playoffs next year. Teams have gotten better in the west! LeBron got 2 (good) years left!
They should fire Lebron he's too old to play for the team 😂
that comment from Andrews about the firing of Mark for Kerr was total B's. Kerr is a great coach but Mark built that Golden State team

Now get rid of Kurt rambis and his wife
LeHire, LeFire 😂😂😂
Sometimes the neurosis is the *behavior* of cycling through coaches.

Let’s be real rob fired him because he didn’t want to be fired period players is there to play ball it’s the general mangers job to bring in new players rob fired him to save his ass period @stevenasmith
Coaching and most definitely player execution could’ve been better
Ham was horrible....The first time I've seen Lakers Nation agree on ANYTHING!!
Rob Pelinka is the one that needs to go.
That's the price of being a part of the Lakers organization, it's either fame and glory or shame and blame. Even Magic dealt with it.
Now it's time to get rid of the Kurt Rambis family and Rob Pelinka. Bus family, clean house in management.
Y’all are forgetting the most important part of the equation. His real name is Darvin scam. Meaning he scammed A.D. and Bron.🔥🔥
Smdh! This is going to blow up in the Lakers face! They won't make the playoffs next season. Then what's the excuse?
New coach with lechoke same outcome.. lakers biggest mistake is lebum

Lebum is the problem 🤔
Sorry I'm a LeBron fan but Mr ham should of not been fired LeBron was very much the fault of ham being fired
Kawhi can't stay on court all the managing he's muscular but fragile stop paying him top money
Lebron is done unless he goes cheap to a superteam
LA owners are so blind..Lebron is the problem
They need to hire MARK JACKSON
He's black balled by the league.
Lebron is the problem..every team hes been on..hes TRASH..NEVER TAKE ACCOUNTABILITY..ALWAYS SOMEONE ELSE'S FAULT
Ham needed to go. They can’t do any worse.
🤣🤣 It's going to get worse! They not making the playoffs next season! LeBron got 2 more (good) years left! Then who has to go?
Stephen a doesn't like it because ham is black when a white coach gets fired he doesn't say that haha
It's not a difficult seat Except when you're dealing with a guy like Lebron. Who? Constantly Masquerades as a goat.He's a poor excuse of a player
Its a good day lakers land🤷♂🤷♂🤷♂
Why is everyone pointing the finger at DHam! You should be pointing the finger at Rob P for dismantling the team after winning a championship.
Nope... EVERYONE thought the Lakers got better the off season after the chip...Go back and check if you don't believe. And if AD didn't get hurt they would have possibly repeated.

LeMistake
WE ALL KNOW WHAT LEBRON IS GONNA SAY.. IM NOT INVOLVED IN THOSE DECISIONS.. 😂😂😂😂😂
He's not...Ham lost to the same team the same way 10 of 11 times! Lakers are about chips and non-Lakers fans can't understand that. He had to go!
3 picks 2029 2030 lol 😆

This clowns never watched the games. These dudes looked lost. They had no plan. No adjustments. No analysis of the other teams. This is coaching.
These guys taking about Darvin is some kind of savant. They supporting Ham only because he is black and he is LeBron James coach. They don't want Bron to do well. They are MJ guys.
