Unsolicited advice to Darvin Ham: If Russell Westbrook sends you a bottle of champagne to congratulate your new job, for the love of all that is holy, send him a thoughtfully written thank-you note. AK – 3:34 PM Gary Washburn @GwashburnGlobe
Ime Udoka’s success is likely to encourage teams to seek first-time head coaches like himself who have played the game and paid their dues as assistants. Darvin Ham may have benefited from this. #Celtics #Lakers – 12:59 AM Jim Owczarski @JimOwczarski
One of the last things I said to @Eric Nehm on way out of #Bucks exit interviews was something like “we get another year before the crazy ‘where does Giannis go next?’ stuff, right?”
I’ve currently listened to segments of natl radio re “Giannis to LA” because of Darvin Ham. 😑 – 5:29 PM
