    Wait I thought none of the sources and media knew what they were talking about. I thought someone guaranteed us he'd be back

    Unless Kurt comes downstairs I think that'd be hard to do.

    Don't want Budz since he's basically Ham senior, and don't want JJ - no more rookies. Well, I'll walk it back - Budz might end up being our best option and if that's the case I do think he'd be better than Ham. For now I'm just glad that Ham is gone. Hopefully we have a good number of options to choose from.

    Anyone but JJ. For the love of god, no more rookie coaches. We are the Lakers ffs, we don't have time to waste, we don't play for playoffs, IST's or some other bs.
    Lets f***ing go!

    This is how you start an offseason. Now, we need to slightly improve the team, find a legitimate big man and let's go from there. Already feeling optimistic.

    And Vogel did lose the locker room (here and in Phoenix), but is a much better coach than Darvin.

    At least he knew when to call a timeout, foul situation, substitutions made a little more sense etc…

    Woj saying the Clippers are high on Lue’s performance and determined to sign him to a long term deal

    Lue’s name being tossed around always felt to me like wishful thinking from Laker fans

    I think the only way it happens is if Lue is determined that he wants to become the Lakers coach and makes it clear to the Clippers, maybe he has to play hardball and demand an unreasonable contract in extension negotiations with the Clips

    The lack of timeouts during crucial moments just infuriated me with Ham. Glad he is gone.

    Wow. I slept until 1PM PST today. Great news to wake up to! My prediction for the day Ham got canned was off by 5 weeks.

    I wonder what Pelinka and the owners think of Handy.

    Meh…we’re supposed to believe reporters? Lakers Twitter account? It could be some intern messing around. Let’s just wait and see if Ham attends Media Day at Training Camp. Until then, it’s just “sources.”
