A Jimmy Butler-less Miami Heat destroyed the Lakers, Ham's new excuse is ridiculous

Every time the LA Lakers lost the head coach Darvin Ham had a new excuse, the team hasn't been the same since winning the In-Season Tournament and now they are 17-18 and aren't looking good.

LeBron James didn't speak to the press, Austin Reaves said that the team hasn't been able to find chemistry, and the vibe in the Lakers locker room is "Shitty, we're losing." Anthony Davis and the players aren't happy but coach Darvin Ham keeps giving excuses.

Darvin Ham just said that the Lakers missing multiple rotation players is more impactful than them missing a “big dog” (in response to a question about the Heat missing Jimmy Butler).

The Miami Heat has been suffering from injuries all season long, and now, without their superstar have completely humiliated the Lakers. LA scored only four 3-pointers out of 30 attempts and had a total of 21 turnovers.

Austin Reaves says the Lakers vibe in the locker room is off

Austin Reaves clarified what he meant by the vibe is off: "When I say the vibe is off, it's not like we don't like each other...Everybody in the locker room gets along. When the frustration of losing wears off a day or two later, the vibe is good being around one another."
