I think you could give Ham infinite games against Denver and he still couldn't win one :lol:

None of these guys would be starting on a good team. This is ridiculous. They need both LeBron and AD to be perfect to just maintain a lead.

Lakers predictably falling apart here. Their offense has been a completely disorganized in the second halves of this series

....and that's the season. Would've been nice to not get swept again, but that's easily the best team in the league. The funny thing is, I'd probably pick LA against 90% of the teams remaining in the playoffs.

Ham can't beat anyone unless they're plagued with injuries.

1, 2, 3, Cancun.

Honestly, I really, really wonder what the Lakers do this offseason.

Do they replace Ham? With who?
Do they move those picks and DLo/Reaves?

It was fun while it lasted.

If LeBron doesn't leave this offseason he officially doesn't care about winning.

Going to LA in the first place showed he no longer prioritizes winning. It's family and wife first, then living in a nice city, then winning.

Rui and DLo you’ve gotta be kidding me man.
Blows an open layup, blows both FTs, the other guy blowing wide open three after wide open three.

If you're starting Hachimura and Russell you won't win against a great team. It's imposible to defend 3 on 5 and it's not like Reaves knocking it out of the park either

Reaves and DLo are a combined 4-20. That run from Reaves last year was crazier than Linsanity low key. He AVERAGED 21/3/5 on 73% TS against the same team.

Just collapsed offensively half way through the 2nd quarter and never really recovered.
