Ham IS certainly a big part of the issue/problem.
But nothing will change for at least a few years. Team makes money for the Buss family, win or lose.
Maybe if fans stopped going to games........ But that will not happen either. |

lets see once vando and cam returns |
Really think these guys would make a difference when the whole team doesn’t show up? It would have rubbed off on them, my hope is that even though I’m gonna piss you guys off is us losing to the Pistons so it can be a major wake up to the Laker team and Organization |
Stop
Log off
Take a break |
Not gonna take a break unless our franchise player stops going through the motion every other game |
Deep breaths… Come on now fam…  |

Is what it is y'all, move on to the next one. |
How do the Lakers fairly consistently have these kind of stinkers? Or even the poor starts or big quarters?
Lakers are a mid seed team trying to be considered a contender. How do they not “get up” for a test against one of the league’s best? |
Yep, that's the quarrel I also have. I think the answer is staring us in the face, but perhaps we don't want to admit it - the Lakers just aren't a good enough team. Even with getting the missing players back won't make up for the glaring deficiencies. |

Stop putting so much blame for the loss on Ham. He's not missing assignments, or shots, playing lackadaisically every other game of basketball, or responsible for a plethora of mishaps. Injuries, youth, and chemistry are in the mix.
IMO Darvin is doing a good job with what he has to work with. Could he be doing better, yes, could he be doing worse, yes.
We're only 18 games in, 11-8, above .500. Don't give up, keep the faith, and exercise some patience.

It starts at the PG/SG position tbh... DLO is not that fast and athletic. Our starting SG usually don't score enough. This team is missing a 2nd/3rd consistent scorer.
Most nights we are at a handicap. Guard driven league now. As much as I like DLO, we need to get more faster and athletic at the PG or SG position. Also we need a consistent 20+ scorer there. |
I think I'm coming where you are, we need better guard play. We need a real athletic contributor who can score and D up - easier said than done especially with all our picks tied up. |
