They already rid of their coach, Vogel so that is a good move already.

Yep, the Lakers made the right decision by terminating Vogel's contract as he clearly didn't handle well with the team last season. At the same time, Darvin Ham as the new head coach of the Lakers doesn't inspire hope, and I don't expect the Lakers will be able to achieve any success with him. The problem is that Ham has no experience as a head coach because he has only worked as an assistant coach until now.

Let's just give Darvin Ham the benefit of a doubt for now, I know he is somehow inexperienced when it comes to being a head coach but all coaches who became a head coach started the same stage as with Coach Darvin's situation now. The whole management surely thought of this hard and the fact that they picked Darvin as the new head coach really means something.
About Darvin Ham, I heard that he's also keen to keep Westbrook in the roster as he's willing to give Westbrook a 2nd chance to prove his worth and he also said that he could bring something out of Westbrook which Vogel didn't. Anyway, let's see!

Yeah, why not, that's why I said they made a bold move already, getting rid of the coach that gave Lebron his first ring as a Lakers. But last season was really a disaster that we already smell from a far that his head will roll and that's what happen here.

So not it's time for Ham to do his magic trick with the Lakers. He has a lot of experience as a player and then assistant coach. So for sure he has a lot to offer even with or without Westbrook on the Lakers line up for next season.
