They should have NEVER HIRED HIM!
no more rookie coaches
Said this when it happened but pther fans wanted him over lue
I remember wondering what all the hooplah was about when we hired him. Everyone was singing his praises at the time. He always seemed Dopey to me. lol
No he was a good hire at the time but by all star break it should have been enough to make the switch to Phil Handy.
Facts lakers have done a horrible job over the years hiring the best candidate for head coach starting from allowing ty Lue to go elsewhere
His lack of creativity, rotations and timeout usage was just so frustrating.
You can't blame everything on Ham. He was only able to put the people on the floor that was available. Yes, he made some questionable coaching decisions. But that is what you get with a first-time head coach. Blame the owner for not getting a veteran coach.
@@erichughes8723 i always think the coach contributes to 5% of every game, which in this series means everything consider what Mike Malone was running
@briantep458 ok, I agree. To me, it's like saying the car I was driving killed those people. No, it was on me. The coach does not play, but he helps put people in a winning situation. I am a big Lakers fan, and we lost mainly because we had no real wing defenders and no real big to man the middle. AD needs to move back to the 4.
oh no we was def creatively bad.
@@erichughes8723a coaches job is to know his players strengths and weaknesses and knows how to put role players in a role to be effective. But Darvins rotations were always so different sometimes line ups that never played together would end up on the floor all together and they would look lost both on offense and defense and thats the coaches fault
Michael Malone saying the Lakers should keep Darvin Ham as the head coach so he can outsmart him next season again 😒
Definitely gaslighting us to not fire him lol not gonna work
That was insane😂😂😂😂😂
Rondo needs to be on the staff.
nah. he's retired an not an nba coach.
Plus, that would be a stiff middle finger to the Celtics org.
Rondo a convict lol
@@sebaztionabsolutionStay out of this, Westbrick STAN
lol
@@Nostalgia9478 ey scrubbs. what's good?😆😆😆
Ham was an energy player. He never used his head when he was a player. It’s the same thing as a coach. He is a rah rah motivational speaker. Not a tactician that can make pressure decisions with nuance during critical moments of a game.
All style and ZERO substance as a coach
Yup. Something Doc Rivers been getting away with since 2008.
Lol ham is a dollar store doc rivers and that is an awfully low bar lmaoooooooo😂😂🤣🤣
His motivation speeches are “cmon guys cmon guys, that’s a hell of a ball club over there”
THIS!!!
Rob should join Ham in unemployment.
Not resigning Caruso, Schroder, Lonnie, trading for Westbrook.
They want them. But the problem..cap space.
Not signing a backup big the summer after Jokic punished us inside to end our season is unforgivable. Clipping Vogel after one bad season was unforgivable. Dude won a chip, that was a bushleague move. Fire Jeanie, Rambis, and Rob 1st from their bball roles.
@@ShowtimeLakersbaby808how do you fire the owner? As fans we just have to ride the wave...but fire the owner? Naw she doesn't take any shots...we were up double digits every game....how is the owner the reason those leads were blown? I think howard over signing woods was a better move that they blew
@@almalyndamaso4769Caruso didn't affect the cap. He even offered to sign for less money. The Lakers stupidly simply didn't want him.
Rob Pelinka needs to be on the hot seat as well. Bob Myers is gonna be a hot commodity if this roster doesn’t get the pieces needed.
Agree 💯
@@aliceharris5316Rob did absolutely nothing a trade deadline to make this team better. It was the same team that Denver swept last year you do know what they say about doing the same thing and expecting different results is called.
Please fire Darvin Ham and Rob Pelinka
Please fire Darvin Ham and Rob Pelinka
Watching Pelinka letting certain players walk was frustrating like Javele, Caruso, KCP, Andre Drummond, Malik Monk, although the money probably wasn’t there to retain Monk. Passing on Buddy Heild for Westbrook 🤦♂️
Big mistake not investing consistent minutes into Max Christie! That kid put the work in and has the skill set we needed all season! Hopefully we don't lose him to another team.
Yup Max Christie 7 starts, 14.1 minutes per game. Cam Reddish 26 starts, 20.5 minutes per game. Wild.
Max Christie is trash lmao. More absolute delusional fake hype from lakers fans
I think Max wants to be a LAKER.. and is byding his time till his number is called .. I don't see him giving up his shot to a prince or a reddish.. I hope we can keep Reddish but Max is the better player
Yep, I really thought he would get some consistent minutes and be able to contribute in the playoffs.
@@jamesb4719keep reddish? U should see andoctor
What is annoying is that Spencer and Gabe were not producing anything in the series, and instead of putting Max to see if its better, he kept playing them
max is trash lmao
@@grapeape1965No he isn’t.
@@grapeape1965 right now gabe and spencer were.....not Max
Max should have gotten some time
Also cut into Austin’s minutes game 5 to get Dinwiddie more minutes
My biggest gripe with Ham is the complete disregard of Max Christie for minimum players like Reddish and Dinwiddie. Like dude these guys are minimum players for a reason.
Max was given the shortest leave of all players. Which is brutal because he's probably 1 of our top 3 defenders and rebounders. Definitely our best rebounding guard.
Not a big Max fan, but I agree with you. Max was finding his niche on the team. Whatever the team on the court needed at that time, he provided. Hit a 3, focus on rebounding, etc etc, Max was doing it.
Max simply isn’t as good as you lakers fans think he is bruh y’all been calling him the next Kobe since they drafted him 💀😭
I can undesrtand max because i know max will play good and we are trying to keep him which wont happen if some team offers him a bigger contract that the lakers wont be able to afford
And Christie didn't play for a reason,can't defend anyone. Staying in front of or running alongside opposing players while they take you to the hole is not good defense
That 3rd Q stretch no timeout was abysmal. Let DEN go on the game turning run. He needs to go. But we go 10-35 from deep is unacceptable. Need far more consistency. This year is far more frustrating than last because the team was actually championship caliber. Lead DEN 75% the minutes. All the other teams who’ve done that have decisively won their series
free throws
why was spencer on the court?
Ty Lue on his last year of his contract
We lost with an average of 2.2 points!!!! With a proper coach, we go to a 7 series and perhaps a win. This team need tweaks, not an overhal change in the players.
With a proper coach, the Lakers would have finished off the series last night and wait play the T-Wolves.
I'm actually happy our season is over.
Yep. We were a play-in team. We could dream of beating Denver but if we are honest, the old guard is done (KD, Steph and Bron). Time to look into the future and go the young route.
Same
Same, the season was so frustrating between fake injury reports, bad coaching, bad draft picks, trade deadline flop...
i wasnt even mad last night after we lost it was like a weight lifted off my back. the first Murray game winner in game 2 broke me. i was throwing stuff and punching the couch. this one was pure relief
A relief tbh lol. After all that fiasco involving DLo inconsistency, Reaves trade rumors, FO unwillingness to fire Ham and even signed a legit Big and trading for players to compliment Bron and AD. Grasping and crawling just to get into the play in spot.
Good Riddance
He was not the right coach for the lakers 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Hey Ham, this is my friend Accountability…
Accountability, here’s Ham… I thought it was time you two finally met…
Accountability is waiting on his meeting with Lebron. Been on hold for 5 years
Facts over Feelings didn't last long with Ham did it?!? 😅🤣😂
Till this day, I’m still pissed that they decided to break the 2020 roster. They let Caruso go, Dwight and McGee were good for us at the center spot. Dwight would have been good at guarding Jokic because he’s big and can make him uncomfortable.
Dwight is 87 years old! 5555
Bob Myers Lakers Nation is Calling
Ok I’ll finally admit Darvin needs to be fired. Vanderbilt should’ve played, he should’ve used a timeout during Denver’s run in the 3rd, he should’ve also had a big sub in when AD had that shoulder injury last night instead of leaving Rui on Jokic. Made no sense. But we were still in it.
Vanderbilt is available in game 6
Wait you’re only realizing this now?
Put this on a cooking channel cuz damn Trev just cooked Ham 🍲
Don't care what it costs, FIRE HAM
Definitely best for The Lakers & Ham to part ways.
Ham was constantly out coached down the stretch, utilized timeouts very poorly, and had many questionable rotations.
With that said, Rob Pelinka has a LOT to answer for. Don’t know why he gets a pass
This is why i watch you channel you say it like it is and on point
I agree with you. I don't think they should have hired him in the first place. What is an assistant coach doing coaching the Lakers. I mean it sounds strange to me. They also didn't address the things they needed like a back up big man. We all as fans were shouting it from the rooftops. And Giles and Hayes were not even close to what we needed.
Pelinka did his job these past two years. He built a respectable roster that had solid potential and enough firepower to lead the Nuggets for 2/3 of the series or whatever that graphic ended up being. If he was going to be fired, it should have been in 2022.
I have no issue with the Lakers firing him because I think he's pretty mid as an executive, but it won't be because he "has a LOT to answer for".
Offer Bob Myers the GM position
I wish
waiting for ham fired video 💜🐷💛
Glorious days ahead brother

@@1peruvianguy sure.
THANK YOU SO MUCH! WE THE LAKER NATION HAVE BEEN BEGGING FOR THIS!!! In all seriousness, Darvin Ham is one of the worst coaches I’ve ever seen.
Real someone else needs to step up we need a good coach who can bring this team together and build a strong team having communication and be an overall better team make better decisions but who’s that coach hmmm we’ll see 🤷♂️
No you the Lebron-Nation been begging for this.
@@XIDAN-go6yecan’t do that when the superstar undermines the coach every chance he gets.
@@gr00v3gaming9 I been a lakers fans before Lebron got there and l’ll still be a lakers fan after he leaves. So idk what you talking about lil bro
It’s the fact that Ham never learns from his mistakes. We talked about the problems with his lineups and timeouts all season long. All. Season. Long. And yet he still found a way to make them problems in this series. Game 2 they blow a 20 point lead because Ham runs out a lineup with Dinwiddie and Hayes. Game 5 he gives Dinwiddie 14 minutes and Reaves only 34. Lakers had a lead in game 5, Nuggets start going on a run, Ham doesn’t call a timeout until after the Nuggets take the lead. I can live with a coach making mistakes but if they keep repeating those mistakes they gotta go.
Westbrook and Ham years are such a miserable time , if they had just hired Ty Lue we probably would have 2 or 3 titles
To be fair at the beginning of the season when Austin was struggling we all thought he would be better coming off the bench.
You're absolutely correct about this. Many fans were calling for him to go to the bench and when ham did that they were happy
Now many of those fans are crapping on him for doing just that.
There's plenty of things to dislike about his coaching but some people just want to hate and it doesn't even matter if that hate is consistent
You're right. AR actually played just as well off the bench too. Also, it solved some of the defensive problems with having DLo and AR both on the floor at the same time.
He was. I don't believe many comprehend how bad the others were. Hams "rotation struggles" were about imagining anybody who didn't get minutes would have been a solution no matter how badly they performed when they were in the rotation. Finally Ham settled on two guards who play no defense but couldn't generate consistent offense game in and out.
@@Kenjay55
You're correct too about fans always thinking the solution is the guy who's not playing
Reeves ,needs to improve his defense
The Lakers problem is their guards are too inconsistent with no Defense.
RAISE THE BANNER
DARVIN HAM FIRED 2024
I always thought we need an experienced coach . Just for proper adjustments in playoffs. No matter who the coach fr they will be in playoffs contention with ad and bron if they healthy . It’s the other intangibles that matters for you to win
Darvin Ham is the worst head coach in the NBA. He talked a good game to get hired but turned out to be incompetent on every level and never held himself accountable for mistakes. He must be fired. ASAP
I think it was unrealistic to think Ham was going to be “the guy” as a new head coach in this league. I think he’ll be a good coach one day, but he’s not ready for the Lakers job.
It’s 11:30 AM and there has been no news of Darvin getting fired. Losing faith by the second.
Rob pelinka and Dlo should be going with him.
Rui and the whole bench too
DLo yes. Rob can stay he makes move when needed be.
@@icecoldac3 Rob put this team together bro
Dlo has a player option it’s up to him if he stays or goes. But if he accepts the option he should absolutely be on the trading block. They would be better off with a player that’s less talented but more consistent.
@@icecoldac3one of the moves he made was to break up a team that had won a championship to add a point guard that bricks layups and dribbles the ball off his own feet
THE ATHLETIC JUST ETHERED HAM.
Good get someone who actually knows what’s going on
It just blows my mind why Ham would not call a timeout when the Nuggets were clearly on a momentum to catch the Lakers. Sure enough, MPJ made a 4 point play to tie the game. Why not call a timeout way before to interrupt the run? Even the announcers think Ham should call a timeout. Looking forward to him being gone.
Idk why they fired Vogel at the first place. They blamed him for the Westbrook experiment
They fired him to appease westbrook.
His recent sweep in phx makes me a little leery though. Plus, The Lakers don’t tend to rehire coaches unless your last name is Jackson.
@@bkosha97 That is true, but you cant deny his first year with the Lakers though he did an amazing job. I think they should consider Mike Budenholzer and have Rondo in one of the coaching staff.
because in 2020, the team was coached by Voegel, Jason Kidd, and Rondo
Greatest tragedy was wasting a season where both Lebron and AD were healthy. Didn't think we could lose when both were healthy... but Ham opened my eyes.
In 2 series v Denver, players are shooting:
LBJ/AD: 56% Others: 42%.
LBJ/AD/AR: 55% Others 39%
LeBron/AD/AR are the only players above 50%.
Just 2024:
LBJ/AD: 60% Others 40%
LBJ/AD/AR: 57% Others 37%
It’s sad that we had to come to this point, with Lebron at age 39 there’s no time to loose.
Please hire Erik Spoelstra 🙏🏻
Keep dreaming, Spoelstra is not going anywhere.
Spoelstra and a good coach wouldn't be dumb enough to coach Lebron and end up as the next scapegoat. Trevor and all these UA-cam coaches should apply
see, that's why I hold LeBron's fans in such disdain: stop wishing, and stop wishing for the impossible.
Why would Spo want to work for this clown show?
This year, Denver was totally beatable, even when the Lakers' role players didn't step up. I was saying last playoffs that the Lakers could've snagged a game or two, but the rotations were rubbish. Same story this year.😢
Trorean laughing in his exit interview killed me
I like Taurean Prince hope he comes back next season
How about his 3 guard rotation lineups ? End game situations ? Timeouts ? Who has he developed ? Knowing we were thin at center why not play Hayes and wood More with AD for playoff prep ? This man’s gotta go !! Don’t who we hire but Ham is cooked !!
And get rid of Spencer Dinwiddie !!!
Once again, whole sale roster turnover, another new coach to blame, and another typical year in the LeBron Era of the Lakers. He will stay, he wants to retire as a Laker, which would guarantee mistakenly giving him a statue. Which, imo, should be with up shrugged shoulders, arms raised, palms up, berating a ref.
Great video Trev! Really great breakdown
They can't guard anyone the Lakers need defensive players or two way players
You didn’t even mention that he didn’t play Max Christie, Lewis and Castleton at all. Pretty good defensive players and shooters.
He was never qualified to coach the lakers
You shouldnt fire a coach based on the success/failure of the team. You fire a coach if he consistently makes wrong decisions. Win or lose, Dopey Darvin FAR more often than not makes the WRONG decision
FIRE Dopey Darvin NOW!!!!
lol
@Living_349 Too bad reality vehemently disagrees with you. lol
@Living_349Its just too bad that reality still vehemently disagrees with you
Youre just a Dopey Darvin STAN in severe denial of reality
lol
Correctly and he seemed to make the same mistakes over and over. It’s as if he was stubbornly trying to prove a point or sabotage intentionally. The definition of insanity.
@@RwM410 Well said
Vogel DESERVED to be fired
BUT
I would not mind getting him back because he's the one coach I believe might actually demand the front office get him a true big/rebounder
If Darvin Ham is gone so should DLO quiting on the team during the team huddle on his cellphone. Also disappearing in the playoffs against the nuggets a second season.
Ham got hired because he not going to give the front office no problems
Trevor did the exact same thing when he spoke on DLO last summer acting like we would be better off with him and we weren't. I don't care get Ham and DLO and a few others outta here. Pelinka can go to because outside of Max Christie the last 10 Laker draft picks have been trash. JHS was trash and we could have had Jaime Jaquez or GG Jackson but landed on this bum
*GOOD RIDDANCE!!!! WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR A LOOONG TIME!!!!*
I sure hope so. No more rookie coaches!!!
BOB MYERS AND NEW COACH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BOB MEYERS AS COACH!
HELL, MICHAEL MYERS WOULD BE BETTER THAN THIS CLOWN!!!!!!!!
Going back to last year when the organization prepared Darvin to be successful at the trade deadline with outside shooting (Beasley) and big body relief (Bamba), he failed to correctly deploy them and made some messy and counterintuitive rotations. There was a late stretch when AD was recovering that Darvin just refuses to play a big with Bamba benched and continuously going with 3 guards. They were destroyed on the boards with Houston and Memphis.
This year, with the signing of Wood and the emergence of Christie from his summer displays, Darvin again failed to properly instill confidence in them by playing them in spotty situations. Overall his preference to cherry pick his previously coached players over the assets that were put in place for him to manage and succeed is the reason he is on his way out. Lakers should go back to the drawing board and think about going with an X & Os coach. Lakers have players that are smart and adaptive in LBJ, AD and Reaves. Additionally there are players that have specializations like Rui (shooting) and Vanderbilt/Vincent (defense). A coach with competent X & O skillsets will optimize and get the best of this team to perform at a high level, which Ham will never be able to if he is kept.
I think Rob pelinka should have some blame too. Pelinka refused and i mean refused to bring in a center. We need size for Denver. Denver is agood team, but not unbeatable like the media is saying, but Ham is just not what we need.
I used to dream for times like this
Well, he’s going to sit at home for 10 mil! He’s just prob not going to get a head coaching job anytime soon. I can see him joining Doc in Milwaukee next year or so.
Jennie Bust please don't let Rob Pelinka run this organization to the ground he's making your father's legacy look bad 😔 please open your eyes 👀
Being an NBA head coach is hard. Being an NBA coach for LeCoach would be even harder.
It went wrong when they acquired DLo instead of Mike Conley last season
That’s what everyone said when Westbrick came in LA, and I was HEAVILY AGAINST Westbrick since they announced it
LOL, this could've happened with Conley too.. he's 37..

Man I forgot about his comment about how we shouldn’t “live and die” with the result of every game. Bro really out here telling fans they care too much lol.
The only bright spot to an otherwise dreary off season.
Now i know why magic left he saw this coming
And to think they hesitated to give Ty Lue a couple of years then gave those years to Ham. Not saying Lue would have won 60 games a year and a title by now, but certainly the lakers would not be suffering from periodic 10 minute or 10 game moments of madness, so we could see how this team really is.
Wish list;
1. Jerry West anywhere in the front office.
2. Budenholzer as coach
3. Sam Presti as GM
fire pelinka too & GO GET BOB MYERS !
He's gone but what if the front office hires another Darvis Ham?
And then the Bucks fires Rivers and the Lakers swoop him 😂😂😂
@@user-bb1jw2gh6z Mike Budendozer...Darvin Ham was under his coaching staff, although Budendozer was a better defensive coach
It would be great to link to the article when you reference one in a video
Think about how much excitement there was for this team from last year. Reaves, Rui, Vando, Dlo, it felt like we finally had a supporting cast for LeBron and AD. And Ham went away from it to favor guys he used to coach, Prince and Reddish.
They were injured or struggling bad (Reeves). Laker fans bragged about Prince early. He lead the team in 3pters during that stretch.
@@mostmost1Vando was injured. Reaves played 82 games, Dlo played 76 games, Rui played 68 games. I know Reaves struggled early but that happens with shooters, Ham should have stuck with him. Especially considering Reddish shot 38.9% from the field and 33.6% from 3, so it’s not like Ham benched Reaves for a lockdown shooter.
@@erikdayne5429 the FANS are the ones who wanted him benched. Reaves and Rui were not a lock as starters either. How quickly yall forget. Yall boasted about how great a 2 way player prince was and I told yall he was not that good and couldn't guard a SG for heavy minutes. Laker fans ran me off panels for this truth. Ham problem was doing what yall wanted.
Honestly It doesn’t matter who was the coach u can’t choke a 20 point lead that’s on the players
3 Coaches gone Luke walton Frank Vogel Darvin Ham ..... Since Lebron got there..... Yet nobody blaming him for this lost ,..... He doesnt get even a lil blame 😂😅
bro plays his heart out at age 39 putting up an insane series number and regular season averages. he’s actually not the problem as much as he complains
Vogel was fired to appease Westbrick
Bron loves Vogel. Thats why Vogel received an extension in the Summer of 2021
Giannis received 3 coaches in a year and a half span. At least Lebron's own is last 6 years and 3 coaches. Luke Walton and Darvin Ham were not good decisions. Bringing in 2 rookie coaches was a poor decision. Vogel was a good hire and even as a Pacer fan for the last 2 decade, he did a very solid job as a Pacer coach. He is a defensive coach that needs defensive players to win. Management gave him Russell Westbrook and they thought that was a good idea to give a defensive coach not only someone that does not know how to shoot but misses defensive assignment on a consistent basis. With that being said, Vogel lost his job not because he couldn't coach, but his decision making with Westbrook being scared to bench him when he was costing you games and asking management if it was okay to bench him when you the head coach. Anytime head coach is asking management if it is okay bench a player that is costing you games means you don't know what your doing.
@@cobi2502 Great point
Best thumbnail yet 😂😂😂
Amazingly enough, I thought exactly the same way with all the critics done by you.
Even though, I am just a fan, not a professional.
Lakers need a father..
Do your research Trevor. Darvin Ham has a 3-1 contract. The last year is a TEAM option. They would owe him 5M dollars, not 10M.
There is no team option. He has a 4 year contract.
Since you've done your research, where do you see the team option in his contract?
@@imbrzyant why yall arguing over another mans bread lmao.
As a Laker fan, I hope this is Bron's last season. I'm so tired of him and since the bubble, this is a play-in team. Time to move on. The old guard is done. I would also look into what trade we can get for AD. Obviously Ham, Dlo, Wood, Hayes,, Gabe, and Redish need to go.
Much luv to bron but I am ready for him to move on as well. I think we got all we could out of the realtionship. Time for a change.
@@bg6160 The only way I could look at keeping him is if he gets a massive pay cut so we can stash the team with younger quality talent. If Jeannie gives him the max, we are stuck in the play-in mode.
We *NEED* a head coach that lives and dies with each game. Darvin needs to learn on the job in Detroit or somewhere else.
Not hiring Ty Lue was their first mistake, hiring Ham and giving him that contact was catastrophic.
Damn coaching Bron is basically a sentence to get fired lol
Except they're not just coaching Bron
Lebron never had a Hall of fame coach. He consistenly gets rookie coaches. He has been playing more than 20 season and is one of the smartest players in today's game so him dealing with a rookie coach who don't know what they are doing is a sentence to get fired.
Darvin ham IS NOT THE PROBLEM 🤦🏽♂️.. the lakers can’t never build chemistry cause we switch the roster every year and coach .. like have some patience

There is nothing worse than coaching an aging superstar.
MARK JACKSON !!!
Never going to happen.
As an assistant yes. Lakers need a young tactician coach that understands various skill sets. Mark is a great players coach and veteran that can get the best out of the top 5 players on the roster.
Who's that young coach that demands respect like a mark Jackson. Come on lakers. For life.
Great breakdown Trevor. Once again, I ask you to please find a better closing than ‘stay safe’. Can you end on a positive note instead of striking fear as if there are a bunch of monsters out in the world that we need to be afraid of? Come on, Trevor… you’re better than that and we’re all better than that. 🙏🏼👊🏼
I’d love for the Lakers to hire Vogel again. Give him a staff of Terry Stotts, Buddenholzer, Handy, and Rondoand/or Jared Dudley. I think that’s a good combination of X/Os guys, and player coaches. Definitely would be an upgrade from this current staff.
You misunderstood. The players want to run Darvin Ham through a brickwall.
Easy mistake.
People wonder why Ham didn't call timeouts when needed. It's because he doesn't have any plays to draw up. That's why they turn the ball over coming out of a timeout.
Legit question is who should be the new coach? Would you really want Rondo if he's never even been an assistant coach? Steve Nash was a brilliant point guard too but he had no experience and look how that ended up.
Phil Handy already on the payroll. Can't they promote him and ride out his contract?
Phil handy is strictly a developmental coach. Not so much of a x’s and o’s guy. He is good with training and development.
I’m really interested in why you didn’t bring up the “10 straight games shitting the bed” comment from Darvin ham.
It’s in the espn article of you missed it?
i remember during hiring of SHAM, the management ask him to get an experienced coach as an assistant, but he didnt, it might contribute to his indecision on timeouts and in game decisions. except for handy, the others might go as well..
Yessssssssssss!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
It’s not the coaching staff. It’s the players who are not capable of playing both ends.
Living & dying with every game is what it means to be a fan, no matter what team or sport you like.
