Darvin Ham feels that the Lakers came out "lethargic" today coming off the road trip but was pleased with how they fought back.
He added that their inability to keep the Celtics off the free throw line is what cost them in the second half.

Darvin Ham says his message to the Lakers after the loss was that he doesn’t feel like LAL has a major gap in talent or competitiveness with any team in the league, but the team has to focus better on the details to maximize its potential
Darvin Ham said the Lakers "fell asleep" too much in transition defense. He was overall disappointed in their lack of attention to detail, citing turnovers, too many fouls, and defensive miscommunications leading to open looks
Darvin Ham says that the Lakers can't allow teams packing the paint to make the offense stagnant. He emphasized that guys like Reddish and Vanderbilt need to cut, crash the offensive glass, set good screens, move the ball, etc.
Darvin Ham says the Lakers have "a lot of work to do" and will watch film to see how they can be better. He stressed the importance of finding some consistency.

Anthony Davis noted postgame that LA has had some miscommunication defensively shifting to a more switchy-heavy defensive approach with the starters and other lineups (LA has primarily been more of a drop/hedging team under Darvin Ham). It's an area they're still ironing out.
that lineup to start the 4th really sealed the deal, Ham is a moron. Hayes getting any meaningful minutes at all is an abomination. i don’t even think there was a legit 5 out there for boston so why is Hayes in? lmao
