Ham showing us all he doesn’t have the offensive schemes to hang in this league. No DLo, No Dennis. No Westbrook. Those guys, for all their faults in other ways, are outstanding playmakers in their own right. We rely on their craftiness to make the offense move. It is a make or miss league but how you generate your shots matters.
Ii still worry about the consequences of taking a hasty alternative.

I don't see how Ham survives this but I've also been saying that for like a week Won’t be fired for at least another 2 weeks imo even if this holds.

Memphis is last in the league in 3 point percentage btw. probably not after tonight, but going into it, 33.3 percent.

They look completely disjointed.
Even Lebron sucked in the 4th quarter.

we're gonna trade for LaVine out of desperation and it will set the franchise back years.

Slide was bound to happen. How do we explain ham coaching leading to in season tourney banner but within a week of raising that shit he's a scapegoat shitty coach. We can say in season wins we're in spite of ham but ultimately this roster is injury prone, old and not championship caliber IMHO.

They all rallied to get Lebron his in season tourney ring, which was really just fools gold. Now they have turned on the coach and are not even playing D any more.

What you say about their effort may be true in part, but best believe, this coach does NOT know how to design an offense. Whatever he's trying to sell these guys ain't working! I've been on record for awhile saying I didn't like Ham even before this recent losing streak. Wasn't a fan of him last season, not a fan of him now. If you watch this team play on offense there is no sense of purpose, they don't swing the ball like they should, it's a throw into the post and let AD work very kind of predictable offense. This does not fly in today's NBA. So, yes these guys do need to improve their performance, but at the end of the day if Ham cannot get them to do that, then he's got to go!

AD plays like he's LeBron age. He's had a good stretch but can go down anytime and waxes hot n cold. Not old on paper.

Fair enough, who would you bring in to replace him?

AD has played more than well enough this season to drop both of those labels until they actually happen again. come on now.

Fair enough, who would you bring in to replace him? Good question, I don’t know to be honest with you. They may have to ride this out with Ham this season until there are more viable candidates next season. But if this season ends badly, there’s no way they can keep Ham next season even if it means rolling the dice with another coach who may not have much of a track record as long as they know how to run an offense that is conducive with today’s game.

I think Davis still has holes in his game that he’s failed to patch up, namely ball handling and playmaking while facing up. It’s something, Jokic, Embiid, Wemby, Chet and even Sengun can all do. When he tries to he’s often off balance, falling over before contact arrives and not controlled enough to make actual passes. Aside from this I don’t have any complaints about his play this season and I also don’t think he’s at fault for our woes. He’s played like the DPOY and remained reliable health wise so I’ll give him his due credit for that. A smarter coach would help him become the playmaker that he isn’t the way that Phil Jackson once did for Shaq, Mike, Kobe and Pau.
