Tyronn Lue, about Darvin Ham's firing as Lakers coach: "It didn't make sense"

The Clippers' head coach asserts that the purple and gold have not been grateful

Darvin Ham, former coach of the Los Angeles Lakers.

The Los Angeles Lakers decided this past summer to dismiss Darvin Ham from the head coaching position and hire JJ Redick, without experience, in exchange. This sparked many criticisms, especially the latter. However, the former is still being talked about, as is the case with Tyronn Lue.

The head coach of the Los Angeles Clippers recently made some statements, as reported by HoopsHype, in which he stated that the Lakers' decision makes no sense.

"It literally makes no sense, but it happens. It happens to all of us. It's part of what we do. But Darvin Ham is a coach, he should be on the sidelines, and I wanted him by my side," Lue begins by saying.

"I'm not going to get into everything that happened there, but he took a team to the Western Conference Finals, and the following year won the tournament of the season, which they say we should place great value on, and then they release him," he concludes.
