Fans on social media lambasted the head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers Darvin Ham after the recent video emerged of the star forward LeBron James having a discussion with the coaching staff.
In a video that appeared on the social media platform X — previously known as Twitter — James had a discussion with some of the coaching staff about the defensive strategy.
That video did not go down well with the fans on social media who indirectly criticised Ham. One of them wrote: "Hands are FIRMLY in that hoodie pocket looking like the biggest fan, just spectating… This is the head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers"
Ham is already under pressure this season as the Lakers are placed in the ninth position in the Western Conference with 37 wins and 32 defeats. It was earlier reported that his position would be under threat if the Lakers did not qualify for the playoffs.
On the other hand, James is having another amazing season on a personal level where he is contributing 25.5 points per game which is the best by a Lakers player in the ongoing campaign. To go with that, the 39-year-old has also contributed 7.2 rebounds and 8.1 assists per game.
