  1. Lakers Cam Reddish, Vanderbilt call out Darvin Ham:
    “Can’t be confused” with his hands, “sometimes he’ll just stand there with his hands in his pocket and not know what to do”

  2. dumbmobileuser789

    Idk, maybe we should have actual ball handling guards out there so they can focus on spotting up and cutting

  3. Odd-Direction9452

    Darvin is unraveling before our eyes lol.

    You’re starting a brand new lineup with no spacing and asking two career bench players to be something they never have. Vando can barely dribble let alone make passing reads off the bounce. Cam went from end of bench to primary defender to now secondary ballhandler. Get real man.

    Ham calling anyone “confused” is just so rich.

  5. You can’t expect role players to be something they’re not

    I just hope we don’t have to lose another 4 games in a row in order to shake it up again

    Cam is not a starting caliber player. Vando when fully healthy can start but def not play 30+ minutes a night

    Time to bring Austin in and take one of them out. Might as well put Rui in too tbh

  7. Cam is better suited as an energy guy off the bench, not as a 3 and D starter for a championship-aspiring team.

  8. jurassic_snark-

    Is this the first time he’s called out specific players this way? I’d say he’s starting to point fingers but that’d mean taking his hands out of his pockets

    Listened to the latest LFR podcast and first I’ve heard them just openly mock his coaching. Frustration is starting to spill out

  9. kasaan110

    Vando ok but cam is a min player stop expecting them to magically know How to score

    Alexa, play Alanis Morrisette – Hand In My Pocket

  11. outsidehere

    Maybe, just maybe, don’t play them together? Have Vando start and have the rest of the starting 5 be offense based?

  12. Waiting for the players only meeting to get him outa here

  13. noplaceinmind

    He did not. Bullshit headline from bullshit writer.

  14. ValuableAssociate8

    Cam is a loose cannon, him, Hayes, Vando all out there playing like football players on the court.

  15. Why can’t he coach to his player’s strengths, instead of asking them to do things they’ve never been known to do?

    Isn’t one main tenet of coaching putting your players in positions to succeed?

    Darvin Ham looking at our starting lineup

  17. This guy is filling holes on a sinking submarine with toothpaste when all the tools he has to fix the situation are sitting right next to him.

  18. yo_mamasmama

    Sooo if Dlo is struggling on defense, should we start him on the opposing team’s star player too then?

    ![gif](giphy|4JVTF9zR9BicshFAb7|downsized)

    He could have given a better answer than pretty much throwing cam/vando under the bus.

  19. Eric_T_Meraki

    Ham can’t use injuries as an excuse anymore. I hope he loses the locker room so we have another reason to fire him.

  20. LosAngeles1s

    he’s 100% going to lose the locker room by mid January if things stay the same

  21. beasttyme

    If he’s not happy with their play, sub then and explain. Wood can get some of Vando’s minutes. Rui can take Cam’s minutes

    Does he take accountability at all? Now he’s just throwing people under the bus but this is the “player’s coach” you all love.

  22. arand0md00d

    What are the odds Lebron named official player coach? Like he essentially already is but actually named it by Rob?

  23. rodrigo_c91

    We got to stop pretending like Vando is a starter. Guy isn’t even good enough defensively to get a starting nod. Guy is very average AT BEST.

    That said, starting both him and cam is fucking DUMB. Essentially playing 3v5. Not to mention we still don’t have a legitimate third best player. And no, it’s not AR!

  24. Lazy-Physics714

    Darvin is desperate at this point. His seat is getting warmer..just as warm as his hands in his pockets..

  25. Reddish was close to being out the league and darvin is playing him as a 30min starter lol

  26. kezzinchh

    Funny thing is, this can be some onion article and I’ll believe it. Nothing is unexpected from this dunce. Blames them for being confused but plays them together most of the game lol. Guys a joke.

  27. RealPunyParker

    My man, you’re the one looking confused on the touchline

  28. thinlion01

    He’s right about Vando he looks lost with the ball. Dude had a layup and passed put like Ben Simmons in one of his possessions. It’s infuriating

  29. StoneColdAM

    That’s pretty bad if a coach is calling out players. If the locker room turns on Ham, he’s gone.

  30. For those who don’t think a coach can make the difference look no further than Vegas Raiders. Wasted the season with meh coach. Finally changed and they just beat chiefs on the road.

  31. juicewar01

    Mfer is the one confused startin em together.

    Thats so weak Darvin. Stfu

  32. Wise_Ad_112

    This is the last year of ham, how we end this year and how well he does will dictate how long after this year he will be here. Sadly he’ll be here next year but I’m not sure he makes it through if this is how he coaches and continues to make mistakes and doesn’t improve as a coach
