北京时间4月30日，NBA季后赛首轮G5，湖人在客场以106-108不敌掘金，大比分1-4止步季后赛首轮。赛后，The Athletic名记Shams撰文称，湖人的一些股东表示，哈姆下赛季极不可能回归球队。而根据ESPN名记Woj的消息，他表示：“哈姆在湖人的未来非常不确定，湖人有充分的机会公开宣布哈姆将继续作为他们的教练，或者私下向他保证，但这些都没有发生。”
而在今日，博彩网站公布了若哈姆下课，湖人新帅的赔率：
菲尔-汉迪（湖人助教） +200
朱万-霍华德（篮网助教）+650
奎因-斯奈德（老鹰主帅）+650
贾里德-杜德利（独行侠助教）+700
萨姆-卡塞尔（凯尔特人助教）+700

phil handy is the goat at player development, not head coaching. let him cook in the best way he can - this position is not for him
[-]”肯尼-阿特金森是个不错的选择。但是为什么雷迪克和隆多没上榜？“
Kenny Atkinson would be a solid pick. But why isn’t Reddick or Rondo on here??

[10]”当掘金在第三节凶猛反扑的时候，我听到解说员说“哇，我真不敢相信哈姆还没有叫暂停”……播音员知道需要叫暂停了，但主教练却不知道🤣。“
I heard the announcer tonight say “wow I can’t believe Darvin Ham hasn’t called a timeout yet” when Denver was going on that 3rd Quarter run… how tf the announcer knows a timeouts needed but the coach don’t 🤣
[-]”让情况更糟糕的是，他曾经也是球员，所以他在那一刻就已经知道该怎么做了，而我却不明白他为什么不做。“
what makes the situation worst he's a former player so he already knows what the deal is in that moment which I didn't understand
[--]”这让我觉得哈姆是不是真的对詹姆斯有什么不满，因为他都做了些什么？“
makes me think darvin genuinely has something against lebron cuz wth was he doing

The clock is ticking
