Darvin Ham's Future As Lakers Head Coach In 'Serious Peril'

[Dewey]

Becky Hammon come to the Lakers.... come..

Ya … No. that’s NOT a solution

He doesn't want that smoke.

For his son he will do it.

But who will they fire when they fail to make the play-in?

If Lebron took on the role of player coach. He basically could not be fired unless he also agreed he doesn't want to do both at the same time.

If they fired him as a coach and he still is a player on the team it would be super awkward. In today's age I think there is a reason there has not been a player coach recently.

Pretty sure it was a joke Archimedes.

This was inevitable seeing some of the body language from the Lakers during the series. That being said, they are going to need to do more than just fire Ham. They need some roster upgrades for everyone who isn't Lebron, AD or Reaves.

AD needs to go. The juice isn't worth the squeeze with him, and you can get a package of pretty good players with trading him.

I don't disagree - I don't think he is the right pair for Lebron at this point in his career. Lebron still needs to be the #1 most nights with Davis rather than he be the 1 and Lebron the 2. I just don't think Lakers will have the guts to do that.

Either way I felt the need to break it down.

It would be awkward having him as player coach either way. He already blames his teammates for his mistakes. Now he'd have a film crew breaking down his teammates mistakes but ignoring his own. He'd lose the locker room before training camp was over.

But yes, he could be fired from the coaching position and be retained as a player under contract.
