Lakers are already in the bottom 7 of the Western Conference and Ham was supposed to be such a great innovative coach. I suppose he has the Lakers playing better d but they only score 109 points per game but give-up 123 points per game. Some defense. Utah, with a complete make-over is playing way better. Go Figure.
Because the McShit-fer-Brains, Snead, and the associated coaches don't value the O-lineman like they do with RBs, WRs, TEs, and DBs who McShit-fer-Brains coached while coming through the ranks.
If they really need to trade for somebody, they can get Usche in New England for far less. What they really need to do is continue to develop their own EDGE rushers. They have a host of them on the roster and PS.
