Stephen A is wrong. Ham is awful and AD was being honest. Legs is an idiot for his comment. AD is a POST. Not a guard. He can’t bring the ball up and pass it to himself. Ham made no adjustments and LeBron wanted to play hero ball and ice out AD to make sure it’s all about him.
If ur not Curry stop shooting 3s Lakers when u got a twenty pt lead go mid range that’s how Mike and Kobe got rings every time u miss a three u give Denver another opportunity to score and dnt double anyone wit a twenty pt lead either damn…..smh💯
Rui at 6'8 guarding the Joker at the closing minutes of the 3rd was give me points, Ad should match the Joker minutes when the Joker rest Ad should rest the Joker is your responsibility buddy
Hayes AD Rui James Reaves winning lineup play them at least 5 minutes a quarter 2:30 minutes at a time and Reaves stay on Murray beat Nuggets with length
Stephen A is always talking out of both sides of his mouth. On one hand he publicly say that a Black HC (Darvin Ham) should be fired. Then he will turn around and jump on his soap box if a Minority does get a HC job in the NBA or the NFL. Dude you can’t have it both ways.
He’s lost 10 straight games to the Nuggets. At some point, coaching strategy and gameplan against the Nuggets has to be questioned. No other team in the league has not beaten that team at least once over that span. When you blow multiple double digit leads against the same team multiple times during the season as well as last playoffs, coaching should be questioned.
A coach with little to no head coach experience (Darvin Ham), shouldn't have been hired to begin with. Jeanie Buss is to blame for that. She also thought Luke Walton was a good head coach hire as well.
@@Living_349 facts 💯I wonder if they was asking for ham job the start of the western conference finals last year that was also his first year and he went deep..
Right! I’m a die hard Warriors fans and warriors have blown plenty 15+ lead games in the 4quarter and no one mention nothing about firing Steve Kerr and now they just paid him an made him the highest paid Coach. My opinion on Lakers and Coaching situation; why don’t Lebron go ahead and retire and Coach the Lakers and his boys 🤷🏽♀️
YALL DONT WATCH BASKETBALL! D Ham got out coached ! They put Aaron Gordon on AD while he was HOT UP 20pts and HE STOPPED AD! No adjustments being made is why they KEEP LOSING
Hayes AD Rui James Reaves winning lineup need to play them at least 20 minutes a game together Reaves needs to stay on Murry we have to use lineups better defensively with length
Lakers do dumb things when they get big leads. You shouldn't need a head coach to tell you to lay off the 3's when you're up by 20, you shouldn't need a head coach to tell you to slow the pace down or use the shot clock to your advantage. All the basic things a team should do to protect their lead is all the things the Lakers DON'T do.
Lebron is always going to get the blame for any loss as though he’s the only person shooting the ball. Yet for the past 3 games he, ad, and one other player are in double digits. I don’t blame Lebron. If they’re blaming you for every loss, sit out the remainder & let “the face of the lakers win for them.
Lakers defense is trash AD has to play elite on both ends the on the court the reason the games been close is because Denver has not shot the ball well but if they do tonight series over with
There's alot of teams the Lakers cant beat its not just the Nuggets. Last year they got lucky with their matchups, the grizzlies were missing their whole frontline and the Warriors had a bunch of shit going on in the background. They should've improved their roster its not as good as they think.
Remind me who the grizzlies were missing? I forgot. And GSW were at full health if I remember correctly. “They had a bunch of shit going on” has nothing to do with them losing. Klay played like trash in that series
@@Living_349 Steven Adam’s Luke Lenard and Brandon Clarke didn’t play the whole series. Ja morant missed a game too. And that was the year draymond decided to destroy their team chemistry by punching his teammate so yea I’d say they had a lot of shit going on. The Lakers also shot a bunch of un earned free throws the whole year just to stay competitive. It just didn’t work against the Nuggets because they were the first good team the lakers played in the playoffs. This is all readily available information. And obviously that roster wasn’t that good because their two best players played the majority of the year, and they just made the play in.
Darvin shouldn't b fired We must keep in mind of the injuries the Lakers had to endure I think if the LAKERS wasn't injured we definitely would b in the positive right now
Can't say it's coaching when AD goes scoreless in the 4th quarter and the tram was up 20 points 🤷🏾♂️ Not to mention Warriors went 3-1 against the LAL this past szn, so Nuggets aren't the only team out West that can challenge them.
And they want to fire Ham, only in year two and made it to the conference Finals last year? AD AD smh 🤦🏽♀️ How about AD focus on his game and being scoreless in 4th quarter.
That game was lost 2 ways. The 5 minute scoring drought, and going away from AD. AD only took 1 shot in the 4th. When someone is that hot keep giving him touches. They didn’t adjust to switching Gordon on AD and the offense got stagnant by not running the pick and roll anymore.
Ham ain’t got that Dawg in him like Head CoachTyron Lue Cleveland 2016. When LeBron kept talking during the time out Tyron said Shut the F*** Up! Look that up.
Bro, how does a black man say another black man should lose his job on an international platform ? As if the media isn’t already harsh enough on black men. Stephen A. Smith is the DJ Akademiks of the NBA.
Gotta love how Ham makes no adjustments & does nothing but "cant blame Ham for how they played" how when he let it get outta control, Vogel shoulda never been fired, they fucked up the roster & he got fired for injuries like how the Lakers was winning the series vs the Suns & then injuries happened then they lost, how is that Vogels fault? Vogel had a gameplan, Hams game plan is to pray his players just win🤷🏿♂️
AD ready to leave. AD, go to GSW, Hornets, Kings, Mavs, Pelicans, or Spurs and team up with Wimby. That's all you need to do and u will be fine. Man if you team up with these teams, ur good. You also need to get in the weight room. Get some attitude in you as well. Ya too nice for that position. I believe in you AD and want to see you go further, but this isn't working. Ask for the ball down in the hole and then score. U got to SCORE. I am not a Laker fan, but come on AD.
Coach Ham will be Lebron's latest sacrificial lamb. The truth is in the first half of Game 2 AD had 30 points and Lebron had 12 assists. In the second half AD had 2 points and Lebron had 0 assists. You cannot possibly believe that sliding Gordon over to AD was the reason for this huge drop-off in the second half because the real reason is the man bringing the ball up the court for LA who decided to put the second half on his shoulders instead of continuing the amazing offensive flow they had in the first. The result? Lebron silenced his G1 critics and scored 12 points in the fourth quarter BUT this approach resulted in the Lakers only scoring a total of 40 points in the second half. You're not going to win that many games on the road in the playoffs like that. It is sad given how many examples of how better the Lakers could be if they resisted the temptation of letting their "King" be the focal point of their offense. They will win G3 at home if Coach Ham recognizes the numbers above and finds a way to get Lebron to feed AD early and late if he doesn't and lets Lebron run his game he will be fired. Reply
Darvin ham has not been able to adjust to what denver is doing. Going home last game with two timeouts in your pocket is pathetic. He cant call a timeout out when denver goes on a 14 pt run for what reason. The lakers have to win in spite of darvin ham. Not because of him. There isnt a single game you can point to in his tenure that they won with darvin hams fingerprints on it. Show me one?
I have watched every lakers game this season and Ham aint it. Rotations are terrible, randomly throws out 3 guard lineups whenever they’re clicking, doesn’t call timeouts at the right time when other teams goes on runs and lets not forget he started cam reddish, prince, and vando over rui, Dlo, and Reaves for big stretches at the begging of the season like he isn’t a head coach caliber dude in the nba and im sure most lakers fans would agree
This is what's wrong with the Lakers PERIOD......There's 29 other NBA teams.....Name 1 team besides the Lakers that Austin Reaves would be the starting shooting guard.. 🤷🏾🤔🤦♂️
First of all I want to start out saying I think Darvin Ham is a good coach but good isn't good enough against a great team. You have to be great to win a championship. I really like Ham but when you go up 20 points you have breathing room to let your young players play and see what they can bring to the table. Everyone deserves to play. They all participated in you making it to the playoffs and it allows your other players to get the rest they need, until you need them in the 4th quarter. I still don't think the series is over and still know the Lakers are the better team. Darvin Ham trust your whole roster. Its strength in numbers because if somehow you can pull this off and comeback to beat Denver your going to need everyone who wears a jersey for Minnesota!!! Frfr #Mr TRUST the PROCESS!!!!
Lakers were not beating anybody. Problem is in the payoff it’s everyone watching lebron and AD on offense. They don’t play like they would in a regular season game where other guys are playing and agressive. They need a better coach and strategy
Its not DARVIN HAM, its the LAKERS ORGANIZATION. Its Not the Referees, its the PLA- YERS. If you dont Understand, Then your not a true fan, of the Game.
Ham should at least have a redemption season. By that logic, fire lebron For clanking the game winner. Mans was wide open Fuck the coach gon’ do bout dat
This era of players is weird . this is the only era where you can win a chip as a coach and still get fired two years after the fact. Toronto nick nurse Lakers frank Vogel buddenholzer in Milwaukee. Think about that . outside of Erik spolestra and Steve Kerr depending on the type of people you have in ya organization if you don't have structure discipline etc etc you getting fired as a coach . Phil Jackson pat Riley chuck Daly would never coach in a era like this . the bottom line Anthony David y'all had a big lead and y'all won a chip on don't play like it . y'all made questionable moves which was disappointing and y'all blame coaching wow
Lakers lost the first game because DLo, AR, Rui and ths bench failed to turn up. Lakers lost the 2nd match, because AR, Rui and the bench no showed again! Lakers lost both games because the Nuggets are a better and wholly consistent team. The king only ever struggles against good teams. At least we made the playoffs as LBJ promised we would never miss out on again.

I know its a long shot but im hoping Denver sweep the Lakers , Lebron retires , and they trade Anthony Davis because these two are just holding the franchise hostage . Anthony Davis has never been in LA what thought he could be and Lebron is only good enough to stat chase because he caint take over and when games anymore. The media still wants to make phony narratives to make Lebron still look great and blame his teamates when he looses two years ago the used Westbrook as the scapegoat now the narrative is D Low not stepping up but what ever happened to Lebron is so great he makes his teamates better. Im so sick of the Lebron show in LA cant wait when its over
He talking bout reeves n Dlo n ham cuz he the coach ts been going on almost 3 years don’t put the right players in the right spots that’s coaching n why was dlo n reeves in anyway if they wasn’t doin shit in the 4th coaching again! AD gne get him fired fasho!
He doesn’t challenge a damn thing. Or use his time outs until it’s too late. HOW DO YOU NOT CHALLENGE ANYTHING? Also, we only beat shitty teams and most of the others had injured great players so we got Lucky. Darvin SUCKS!
Yes he does it’s called adjusting to seeing what’s on the court that’s why he’s a coach , ad taking 1 shot in the 4th qtr is coaching run plays for him he was cooking all night
Coach is not on the court playing! It’s the fucking players loosing the game, stop blaming coaches! If the players are good enough they’ll win. Keep Austin and Davis get rid of the rest!
There’s a long list why the Lakers are in this excruciating position and Ham is one… DLo another… Rui, Reaves, useless Gabe Vincent… ineffective bench… always unavailable Vando… lazy defenders and turnovers!! The season hangs on Game 3!!!🤔
Ham doesn’t understand lineups and matchups mismatches AD SHOULD BE AT THE 4 HHAYES AT THE 5 RUI JAMES AT LEAST 5 minutes a quarter Reaves stays on Murray Prince Wood Van Reddish sub them in and out and Vince is trash smh he should be ashamed Rui never on Joka Hayes on Joka it’s crazy Ham doesn’t understand how to stop the Nuggets it’s easy play a bigger lineup that DLo Reaves all game they should be running the own squads Dinwindie needs to BE AGGRESSIVE OFFENSIVELY GIVE HIM THE KEYS

I know its a long shot but im hoping Denver sweep the Lakers , Lebron retires , and they trade Anthony Davis because these two are just holding the franchise hostage . Anthony Davis has never been in LA what thought he could be and Lebron is only good enough to stat chase because he caint take over and when games anymore. The media still wants to make phony narratives to make Lebron still look great and blame his teamates when he looses two years ago the used Westbrook as the scapegoat now the narrative is D Low not stepping up but what ever happened to Lebron is so great he makes his teamates better. Im so sick of the Lebron show in LA cant wait when its over
Ham is a bum, no one pays attention to his plays he just looks at bron going what we got 😅
Is not about the nuggets. He should be fired long time ago..
He talking bout reeves n Dlo n ham cuz he the coach ts been going on almost 3 years don’t put the right players in the right spots that’s coaching n why was dlo n reeves in anyway if they wasn’t doin shit in the 4th coaching again! AD gne get him fired fasho!
LaHam want be fired
He doesn’t challenge a damn thing. Or use his time outs until it’s too late. HOW DO YOU NOT CHALLENGE ANYTHING? Also, we only beat shitty teams and most of the others had injured great players so we got Lucky. Darvin SUCKS!
Plus on Davis❤
Darvin has little to do with blowing 20 point lead
Yes he does it’s called adjusting to seeing what’s on the court that’s why he’s a coach , ad taking 1 shot in the 4th qtr is coaching run plays for him he was cooking all night
yes sir and missing wopen 3 :D
?
Casuals and you know about basketball is the ball going thru the net that’s it 😭😭😭
😢🎉@@ThePasttr🎉44😢😢4n😢
Ham is just too inexperienced to be tryn to coach a team wit championship aspirations as a fan i even look at his rotations like wht is he doing
No Dwight no title for the Lakers
How are they going to win when they're divided?
How bout firing Lebum
Coach is not on the court playing! It’s the fucking players loosing the game, stop blaming coaches! If the players are good enough they’ll win.
Keep Austin and Davis get rid of the rest!
Darvin Ham = Dave Roberts
Me n lebron still havin a conversation 😂
There’s a long list why the Lakers are in this excruciating position and Ham is one… DLo another… Rui, Reaves, useless Gabe Vincent… ineffective bench… always unavailable Vando… lazy defenders and turnovers!! The season hangs on Game 3!!!🤔
“AND THE LAKERS CAN TAKE THAT L ALL THE WAY HOME” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ham doesn’t understand lineups and matchups mismatches AD SHOULD BE AT THE 4 HHAYES AT THE 5 RUI JAMES AT LEAST 5 minutes a quarter Reaves stays on Murray Prince Wood Van Reddish sub them in and out and Vince is trash smh he should be ashamed Rui never on Joka Hayes on Joka it’s crazy Ham doesn’t understand how to stop the Nuggets it’s easy play a bigger lineup that DLo Reaves all game they should be running the own squads Dinwindie needs to BE AGGRESSIVE OFFENSIVELY GIVE HIM THE KEYS
Am I the only one who saw tim leglar credentials at the bottom of the screen showing he won a scoring title in the cba but only average 7pts in the nba😮😮😮😮
BRON PROBABLY TOLD DAVIS TO SAY THAT
LeBrick is the puppet master 100%. Everytime he loses the circular firing squad begins and usually the coach and some players are casualties
Darvin isn’t a good coach. Rotations all year cost them games and playoff seeding. All for t prince lol
