At the end of November the Lakers were 11-9 last year. Today the Lakes are currently 11-8.

However, the outcome is worse because the Lakers have been knocked out of the NBA Cup while Ham's Lakers, as we know, would go on to win the NBA Cup.

The NBA Cup was not a wash, that same Pacers team that the Lakers beat would go on to make the ECF in the playoffs that year.

The Lakers are a different team this year. Ham had the Lakers play with pace. They were 2nd and 3rd in the league in pace. Additionally, the Lakers were closer to average in terms of their defense and offense with a barely positive net rating. Under JJ's tenure the Lakers have had one of the worst defenses in the NBA and are winning games off their offense. Their pace is significantly slower too. Their net rating is negative and implies their record is better than their actual performance.

Now obviously there are minute differences between this year and last year. LeBron is a year older, Dalton Knecht is the rookie rather than the bust Jalen Hood Schifino. Taurean Prince is not on the team anymore.

But to blame Darvin Ham when he was responsible for pushing the Lakers to that WCF appearance is a bit extreme. Btw, the Lakers lost to the same team in the playoffs two years in a row under Darvin Ham. There is only so much a coach can do against a clear mismatch of rosters.

You might want to re-read the OP a few times to understand the premise of this thread and the meaning behind your life :dontknow:

It will help, I guarantee it, and we can keep the discussion rolling via your regular posting :nod:

Lakers struggling has nothing to do with JJ. Anybody that actually watches these games can attest to that. It’s not his fault LeBron is finally showing his age and teammates like Reaves and DLO are crapping the bed while also trying to ice Knecht since Reaves is not Lakers fans’s favorite white boy anymore. JJ is making the best out of the situation.

You think Bucks fans are happy having Ham right now? :lol:

Really happy having Ham back to be honest, we won a chip with him as a longtime assistant, our guys love him and many said they felt his absence heavy. Bucks are on a major upswing rn with 14 of their next 16 coming against teams with losing records while currently the 5th seed


Feel like Lakers fans are the objectively the worst with using their [u][b]coach as scapegoat[/u][/b]

What was the name of your coach that won a championship? What happened to him?


LMAO, :lol: FUNNIEST COMEBACK I've read this weekend.
