NBA legend Magic Johnson is feeling the pain of the Los Angeles Lakers’ 0-4 start to the season. As a former player and president of the team, Johnson has high expectations for the purple and gold. However, he’s trying to remain optimistic, praising first-year head coach Darvin Ham for his efforts.
“I’m agonizing over our 0-4 start, but I’m also impressed with the job Darvin Ham has done so far,” Johnson said in an interview. “He’s got the team playing hard, and we’re seeing flashes of brilliance. We just need to put it all together.”
Johnson acknowledges that the Lakers’ struggles are due to a combination of factors, including injuries, new player acquisitions, and a tough schedule. Despite this, he believes Ham is the right man for the job.
“Darvin Ham is a great coach, and I love his energy and passion,” Johnson continued. “He’s got the players buying in, and that’s half the battle. We just need to stay healthy and keep working hard.”
Johnson’s praise for Ham is a vote of confidence in the coach’s ability to turn things around. With a tough stretch of games ahead, the Lakers will need all the positivity they can get. Can Ham and the Lakers turn their season around? Ony Time Will Tell.
