[WOJ] Lakers have hired Darvin Ham as Head Coach

[Bologna Smasher]

I think Ham will be fine. He's well respected around the league, been around a ton of different coaches and systems. Hopefully the Lakers' front office is able to do something positive with the team so that he doesn't get dragged down after finally getting a head coach position.

I hope he gets a second chance somewhere else after Lebron gets him fired from this role next year.

the front office, Lebron and Klutch sports will run roughshod over the poor guy,- expecting impossible things like winning with Westbrick.

ppl still talk bout the lakers dumpster fire?? LUL

Like a pig to slaughter.

I don't think Ham can save that franchise

+1 for the ham/pig reference... but our franchise doesn't need saving, thank you very much!

Lebron and AD need saving, from this situation they have put us in.

Hopefully Ham will bring the bacon and not lay an egg. If not he’ll get cooked by the media and fans and he’ll get canned

Wonder what is taking the Hornets so long. Only job opening left and they are holding draft workouts without a coaching staff (I guess run by Kupchak and Buzz Peterson)

It’s too bad 90% of the posts in this thread are troll posts about LeGM/LeCoach instead of the hire itself. Which is a pretty interesting one, it’s a name I never heard until a few weeks ago and I was hopeful there would be some discussion on this guy’s coaching style or even some talk about how the Lakers hired a relative unknown instead of retreading the head coach ladder.

Nope, 7 pages of trolling lebron for some reason. Never change, general board.

D'antoni seems like a no-brainer

lakers situation can chew up a nice up-and-coming coach. probably not going to be a good fit for both sides.

There's really no way to know a new coaches coaching style, which is why it's hilarious when people pretend they have any clue what that guy is going to do.
