The Los Angeles Lakers’ downfall continues. With a 138 to 122 defeat against the Atlanta Hawks, this is the third time the City of Angels have lost to their opponents with a double-digit difference. The defensive struggles of the Lakers were so obvious as their star center, Anthony Davis missed his third match of the season due to his Achilles tendinopathy and hip spasm. Even with the extreme efforts put in by LeBron James who almost got a triple-double in this game, the 17x NBA champions outright got dominated.

So, after suffering their second consecutive loss on their six-game road trip, the Akron Hammer made a cryptic tweet. The 20x All-Star did not write any words, he just put up an emoji of the hourglass indicating that somebody’s time is running out. And looking at the bad stint the Lakers have been on this season, speculations are that the head coach of the Lakers Darvin Ham might get fired.

However, as of now, there is no explanation as to what James is trying to indicate. It could mean that there might be some new trade the Lakers have made that James is discretely talking about through his tweet. Fans are taking it up to do a thorough investigation to decrypt this tweet and one fan even jokingly said he will offer the person $5000 who can decode what James meant to say. However, not only James but another Lakers player posted a tweet of just one word, which caused some controversy.

Barley 10 minutes after the Lakers’ starting lineup was announced, the 28-year-old center Christian Wood sent out a tweet that apparently targeted coach Ham’s decisions. But after the tweet gained unwanted traction, Wood had a very convenient explanation, which the fans found hard to believe.

What was Christian Wood’s explanation for his tweet?

With key player Anthony Davis out due to injury, coach Darvin Ham made a lineup change, moving Jaxson Hayes to the starting lineup instead of Christian Wood. Wood tweeted a cryptic “Lol” shortly after the news, causing curiosity among the fans on social media.

Following the post, the media questioned Wood about his tweet and what he meant to say. He claimed the tweet was an accident, adding that he wanted to point out something but posted it without the proper context.

However, despite Wood’s efforts to minimize his actions, social media was already filled with speculation. Wood’s minimal Twitter engagement and claim that it was an error prompted suspicions about the actual meaning of his post.

Even when coach Ham was asked about Wood’s tweet, he claimed that he is not on social media so does not know about these things. However, talking about the lineup, he said that the team’s emphasis is on creating a balanced roster for success and ignored the tweet completely. Due to that, the fans are speculating if there is more to the story. What are your thoughts on this? Let us know in the comments below.
