    LeBron James on how Darvin Ham has managed the team's recent ups and downs: "By just staying and trying to keep us prepared when it's time to go out and for battle."

    LeBron on the Clippers:

    “They look great. You said the James Harden Clippers? Nah, it's the T. Lue Clippers. It don't take T. Lue long to get it right. It took 5 games, and they been cookin' since.”

    Taurean Prince on the late-game 3-pointer:

    "I was just prepared for it and I let it go....I'm grateful really. I knew when I made that big mistake I was trying to get as close to him as possible without fouling. Immediately, I wanted to get that play back. When the opportunity came I took advantage of it.

    We had been struggling. I think it's going to be great for us to carry that on to the next game."

    LeBron on how necessary this win was from a morale perspective: "It doesn't fix everything, obviously. But it helps. But we gotta still learn from the wins more than we learn from losses. ... We have to learn from the mistakes we had tonight, which we had too many still."

    Kawhi Leonard understood why he wasn’t on floor for most of the final 3 minutes due to the minutes restriction. He said he would’ve loved to have played but knows he why Ty Lue had to keep him out then.

    "I don’t think he pays any mind to it... Los Angeles is the no. 1 market arguably in the NBA... Trade talks, firing—all this is gonna come with being a Laker."

    Taurean Prince on what it is about the Lakers organization that has made him feel that way: “I think that’s what has kept me locked in…You got to appreciate those things in this league because sometimes it doesn’t come.”

    Lue used his last timeout with three minutes to go and benched Kawhi

    he basically gave us this win as favor to Bron lol

    Peep how Bron made sure to shout him by name in the post game interview

    "After an evening spent trying to read the proverbial Lakers room, speaking to anyone and everyone who might have substantive insight into the question of whether Ham is truly in trouble at the moment, it’s the informed opinion of this particular NBA scribe that he would not have been fired even if they had lost Sunday. And that was before discussing the situation with Ham long after the game was over.

    But as he shared in a conversation with The Athletic, there’s a significant factor in play here that should not be forgotten: While Ham has issues to resolve both in his locker room and elsewhere within Laker Land, he has the continued support of owner Jeanie Buss."

  • Jan 8, 2024

    "But as things stand, Ham is secure — knowing that the Lakers' most important decision maker is behind him.

    For now, he believes L.A. needs to continue to build."

    Darvin Ham tells Sam Amick that he understands the gravity of the situation.

    Lakers coach Darvin Ham details the Jeanie Buss factor that matters a great deal and discusses a Thursday film session where players were invited to critique his work.

    “We had a few guys speak up,” he told TheAthletic

    “And right or wrong, I love it.”

    Jeanie Buss reportedly believed that Frank Vogel was mainly responsible for not successfully integrating Russell Westbrook and ultimately greenlighted his firing, per Sam Amick
