Last season’s run to the playoffs has the fan base excited, and the coach wouldn’t want it any other way.
EL SEGUNDO — Year 2 of the Darvin Ham era begins for the Lakers next week, and the vibe will almost certainly be different than it was last October. That’s what success does for you, both on the court and in the transactions column.
“We’ve re-established the competitive gene that this organization has been known for, and not just known for but being known for it at a high, high level,” Ham said during a pre-training camp news conference on Thursday. “In talking to our governor, Jeanie Buss, that was one of the biggest things I wanted to establish when I got the job , to get us back to being a formidable team night in and night out.
As the boss, he has James and Davis and a deep roster, the core of which surprised most of basketball last season in rebounding from a 2-10 start and a 14-21 record on Dec. 28 to go 43-39, beat Minnesota in the play-in game and follow that with series victories over Memphis and Golden State before running into the Nuggets’ buzzsaw in a four-game sweep.
“That doesn’t change going into this year. And I told the guys plenty of times throughout the summer, and it’s basically the same message I had last year: We’re only going to go as far as our daily work takes us.”
