They give up a championship coach that had a terrible roster for a rookie coach with a bad roster? It could work...

Rookie head coach. Three divas in Lebron, Westbrook and Davis. Little to no chance of putting anything decent around the 3 divas.

I feel so sorry for Darvin Ham and the awful things that that franchise is going to put him through.

I don't know much about the guy, but my impression of the Bucks is that they got by on talent and that coaching was not necessarily their strong suit.  Maybe that criticism only applies to Bud and not Ham.  I don't know. 

Maybe somebody else is more informed about this guy than I am.

One thing really nice with this year's playoffs is that I don't have to know what leBUM is having for breakfast.

I like the signing for the Lakers (yet still hope they go 0-82). Much like Ime, he can garner the respect of current players because he's been in the trenches. I think its easy for players to tune out the Brad Stevens and Frank Vogels of the world.

The Lakers can always rebuild more quickly than the Cs, because of the draw of LA. Won't be surprised if they win a title again before we do, but obviously hope that won't be the case.

Prime Red as HC with prime Jackson as assistant coach would not be able to coach that disaster to a deep playoff run in 2022-2023. Does anybody liked roasted ham? Now once Westbrick is gone, 2023-2024 may be a different story.
