LA drops to 17-18 -- the first time they've been under .500 since Nov. 11 -- after losing to a Miami team missing Jimmy Butler. They are 3-9 since the IST and just .001 ahead of the Warriors for No. 10 in the West.
Up next: vs. MEM on Friday.
Ham談到這場比賽，他說：「我討厭輸球，我恨沒有在每場比賽中表現得不夠自信和積極，這肯定會影響到我的教練團、球隊和這些球員。我們將找方法如何最好的幫助他們，並提出解決方案。」
Darvin Ham:

"I hate losing. I hate not being assertive, aggressive in terms of attacking each game... That definitely flows throughout my coaching staff, the organization and these players. We're gonna see how we could best help them and come up with a solution."
Ham談到缺席的球員的影響，本場少了Gabe Vincent,D'Angelo Russell和八村壘，Ham甚至認為影響比熱火少了Butler還要大。
Darvin Ham just said that the Lakers missing multiple rotation players is more impactful than them missing a “big dog” (in response to a question about the Heat missing Jimmy Butler).

而對上主力LeBron James，今天得到12分、9助攻，但三分線外六投零中，賽後並沒有接受採訪就直接離場。

而有接受採訪的Reaves談到球隊的狀況，表示球隊休息室氣氛蠻糟糕的，球隊也有足夠的天賦、技術、陣容深度去贏球，球隊上氣氛若不是像現在這樣，這我們才是需要去擔心的。
Austin Reaves on the vibe in the locker room:
— Daniel Starkand (@DStarkand) January 4, 2024
"Shitty. We're losing. Anytime you lose, the vibes should be off. If we went in there and the vibe wasn't off with the rough stretch we've had then I'd be concerned."
