節錄他談及湖人的部分

On May 27, 2022, the Lakers hired Ham for his first coaching job after the
firing of Frank Vogel. ESPN reported at that time that Lakers were sold by Ham
’s “stature and toughness, his history of coaching star players and
championship pedigree as an assistant and player.” The former NBA journeyman
forward spent nine seasons under Mike Budenholzer as an assistant coach with
the Atlanta Hawks and Milwaukee, including winning the 2021 NBA championship
with the Bucks.



The Lakers were Ham’s first NBA coaching job after being passed over in nine
interviews. Upon Ham’s hiring with Los Angeles, James tweeted: “”So damn
EXCITED!!!!!!!! Congrats and welcome Coach DHam!!”

湖人是Ham在面試9次失敗後的第一份NBA教練工作。在Ham被洛杉磯雇用之後，James發了推
文"太興奮啦!!!!!!Ham教練恭喜!!"

Ham coached James, forward Anthony Davis and the Lakers to a 43-39 record
during the 2022-23 season. The Lakers went from a play-in tournament team to
the 2023 Western Conference finals. The 2023 NBA champion Denver Nuggets
swept the Lakers in those conference finals, but making it there added
optimism for the future. Under Ham, the Lakers also won the first NBA Cup
championship.


The Lakers finished the 2023-24 regular season 47-35 and defeated the New
Orleans Pelicans in the play-in tournament to land the Western Conference’s
seventh spot. The Nuggets, however, foiled the Lakers again, defeating them
in the first round of the playoffs in five games.

湖人在23-24球季打出了47-35的戰績並在附加賽打敗了紐奧良鵜鶘並成為第7種子。然而，
金塊再次擊敗了湖人並在第一輪5場之後淘汰了他們。

On May 3, 2024, a stunned Ham was fired by the Lakers. Ham said he was “
disappointed” and that it was “crazy” that he didn’t get an opportunity
to grow in the seat.

“To do as well as I did, I swear to God, anywhere else I’m probably looking
at an extension with what I did,” Ham said. “I’m not talking about
feelings. I’m talking actual facts. They go from not making it to the
playoffs to the final four in the NBA, the conference finals. And then you
win the in-season tournament, navigate through all the injuries and win both
of your play-in games to get to the playoffs.

“People always talk about us losing to Denver, but they never talk about how
we got to Denver. We beat a kick-ass young squad in Memphis and we beat
Golden State.”

5/23震驚的Ham被湖人給開除。Ham說他當時感到"失望"且他覺得他沒有獲得機會在那個位
置繼續成長非常"瘋狂"。

"如果做得跟我一樣好，我對天發誓，我達到的成就在任何其他地方應該都在尋求續約。"

Ham表示

"我不是在談論感覺。我在談論事實。他們從打不進季後賽一路打到了NBA的四強，分區決
賽。然後我們贏下了季中錦標賽，經歷了各種傷病並贏下附加賽打進季後賽。

"大家只會說我們輸給了丹佛，但他們不討論我們如何抵達了丹佛。我們在曼菲斯打敗了年
輕有活力的球隊又打敗了金州。"

“I’m not going through the whole Lakers thing. I thought he got a tough
deal there,” Rivers said pregame.

Doc Rivers在賽前表示"我不會談論太多湖人的事情。我認為他在那邊的處境相當艱難。"

There were questions on social media and from NBA journalists about Ham’s X’
s and O’s, lineups and rotations. Davis questioned Ham’s coaching on both
ends during the Nuggets series. ESPN senior writer Ramona Shelburne also
previously reported that James lost faith in Ham over the course of last
season.



“I’m not a mudslinger and I’m not going to wait until I’m 51 to become
one,” Ham said. “You feel like you did enough to sustain in one spot. I
felt like I did that. I get it. The franchise I’m working for, the
expectations can be unrealistic at certain points in time. To be 33-49 when I
was hired, with an unbalanced roster, turn that around, make it to the
Western Conference finals. The very next year we were a plus-10 in wins,
going from 33-49 to 43-39. And guys got paid on my watch. It went from a lot
of unknown scenarios to I think we have a little bit of a core. And then we
got hit with the injury bug like crazy last [season]. We might have been Top
5 in games lost to injury.



“It’s being reported like I’m just throwing some lineups up against the
wall to see what sticks. No man, we were really navigating a lot from guys
being hurt to having the oldest player in the league [James] to navigating
A.D.’s injury history. It was a lot.



“Some of the s— that was coming out? Wow, bro I don’t know X’s and O’s?
I was winging it. Dude, that was the most disappointing stuff, how mean and
so much stuff people are saying online. The best thing I could do was block
out the outside noise,” Ham said.



...
後面是他怎麼加入老河(原本想休息) 他為甚麼拒絕Bud 以及一些他家人的事情
...

Meanwhile, the Lakers are off to a 14-12 record under first-year coach J.J.
Redick. Ham said that while he has kept in touch with several of his former
players, he has not had a conversation of note with James and Davis since he
left.

與此同時，湖人現在正在經歷一個14-12敗的紀錄並由菜鳥總教練JJ Redick所帶領。Ham說
雖然他與一些過去執教過的球員維持聯繫，但他離開後還沒跟James或是Davis講過話。

Even so, Ham says he wishes the Lakers the best and has “no ill will.” The
Bucks host the Lakers on March 13, 2025, and visit Los Angeles on March 18,
2025.

即使如此，Ham仍說他祝福湖人一切順利且他對於前東家"沒有任何惡意"。公鹿將在2025年
3月13日在主場對陣湖人並在2025年3月18日作客湖人。

“I haven’t talked to anybody,” Ham said. “When we played them in the
preseason, I said hello to a couple of guys. Jaxson [Hayes], Cam [Reddish],
DLo [D’Angelo Russell], Gabe [Vincent]. But not really, man. LeBron ran past
the bench and we had a little bit of small talk.

"我還沒跟任何人說過話"Ham表示"我們在熱身賽與他們對陣時，我跟幾個人打了招呼。
Jaxon Hayes、DLo、Gabe Vincent。但真的不多，LeBron跑過替補席時，我們簡短聊了幾
句。"

“There is no ill will for me. Their situation is what it is.”

"我對他們沒有任何惡意。他們的情況既然已經發生了就是發生了。"

心得

It is what it is
