    Hams rotational mistakes to costly vs a great team. He didn't tighten the screws. Can't waste 1 game vs a really good team

    i think we probably lose game 1 anyway, but pre-adjusting the starting lineup was a weird look, imo. didn't like it before it happened, and it went terribly.

    game two ham did well, imo. our stars sucked offensively, and murray went bananas in the 4th. nothing could be done about that, imo. you can't double the ball out of murray's hands with jokic on the floor. that's death.

    Screw you, Bacon Pimple Goblin. Screw you. Hope you get fired before game 4.

    No offense. No defense. No accountability. Dumb lineups.

    Not trying to overreact but…

    How do we pass on Nick Nurse and crew and stick with the Hambone next year?

    Just not a good job this series.

    Game 1 small ball was stupid.
    Sticking with Vando instead of Rui was even more stupid by Game 3.
    Kept going back to DLo arrg

    Easy. We are that dumb. It's fine to fire a championship coach, but god forbid we fire a d****** underachieving thief.

    Congrats to Ham for eviscerating any and all goodwill he built up over the course of these playoffs. This is entirely on him. There are people living without electricity that could see he needed to pull DLO early in this game. What could he possibly have been thinking?

    Disagreed with him going back to Vando and Russell to start the half after a poor start. We just bleed points with them in. Dlo is in his head and Vando is a horrible offensive player.

    We can't score at all and other teams just run on us off of our pathetic offense when he is in the game. We needed a run with Dennis/Reaves/Bron/Rui/Davis to make a run and take advantage of the momentum.

    He has had an atrocious series after looking pretty good the first two. Ham derailed us in all three games.

    There are lineups out there that have had success but he has refused to use them enough and now it's too late.

    Maybe we need to be swept for Ham to be fired. That's one positive from this. Michael Malone is getting everyone fired lol.

    He’s not going anywhere. Not that the Lakers care about how things look, but it would be a bad look to fire the guy after the season we weathered. He babied Russ enough to get to the deadline still floating, and he got them playing defense enough to get us to the WCF. I mean I’d prefer a better coach because we’re the Lakers and our window was NOW, shouldn’t have gone with a rookie, but but all things considered he went far for a rookie. Jeanie has also said his contract aligns with Rob’s extension for a reason, so they can build this together or something. He’s here to stay, good or bad he’s here to stay. Seriously, when was the last time the Lakers fired a coach after one season?

    He did a good job the first two series but man this one was bad.

    OTOH Malone was ruthless took out Braun after one bad missed rotation and finished the game without Gordon who was playing well because Brown and KCP were playing well. Jeff Green got more.minutrss after hitting a 3 so Lakers couldn't sag

    AD starting the 4th on the bench was bad too
