They ran out of gas. They have a bunch of geezers and g-leaguers getting all the minutes. It is not possible for them to sustain a high level of play.
Nah fam…they came out in that 3rd quarter lackadaisical, like they knew they had control of this game. It was reeves, Gabriel, monk and tht in the first buzzin around on defense and causin problems…the youngins and the whole team including them came out relaxed and as tho they had shyt sowed up.

that’s why I blame Vogel, because imo a good coach keeps a team mentally balanced especially with the lead…and he’s shown over and over he can’t do that


Lakers always go to the sunken place no matter what with Vogel as the “brains”….he gotta go

No @Regular_P is right the game ain’t have shyt to do with keeping anyone mentally balanced. We’re a bad & older team. Pelicans we’re caught off guard initially. The better team won

Any coach that brought a storied Franchise a championship three years ago should get the benefit of the doubt

You wouldn’t give D’Antoni Tony Allen, Jared Jeffries & Pat Bev then wonder what happened to his offensive prowess
He hasn’t sniffed that level of success since… and we have players who have timelines that don’t allow for that kind of patience to get it together. He was supposed to be an anchor and foundation to this whole thing…and he’s been anything but that

Bron and melo are the two old guys y’all talkin bout, Avery didn’t play and melo off the bench…so what did old have to do with tonight….

when you’re up 23 it’s the coaches job to keep that lead in tact…no way a coach wouldn’t take responsibility for this loss




Also the main scorer for the pelicans tonight never does that…they are not the better team…they are the better coached team….vogels rotations were ASS

Majority of the production is coming from Bron who is the oldest :russ:

The saying cut the head the body will follow is true. Not saying Vogel shouldn’t take some hits for this. I said when we went up big it wasn’t sustainable. We’ve shown we get tired & give up leads :manny:

Frank Vogel doesn't draft nor does he sway players to come play. It isn't his fault that certain players need to be protected from themself since their video game style to team building has varying degrees of success. If you'd like to hang this loss on Vogel knock yourself out though

what does drafting and swaying players have to do with blowing a 23 point lead tonight:stopitslime:…..the “I hate Lebron” thread is that way:camby:”…. But vogel is responsible for callin timely timeouts to stop momentum shifts and draw up plays, which he never does, and put in competent rotations that match or over match the comp, which he never does….

Reaves - Undrafted rookie free agent
Gabriel - Three teams this season alone
Johnson - 10 day contract fodder
Dwight - Washed and got 33 minutes
Augustin - Another guy signed off the scrap heap
THT - Scrub that had 21 minutes

Who are you replacing these nobodies with out of thin air? LeBron is the only guy you can count on nightly (Edit: Monk too). Everybody else is a crap shoot. Arguing otherwise is just being a dishonest bozo.

NOBODY else in the league wanted these guys who are DEPENDED on every night for the Lakers.

Well nobody in their right mind would call for someone's job because they coached a bad game in March so cut the nonsense and just blame it all on Frank and be a G about it :yeshrug:

I’m judging them by who they are today, DJ has been lights out… Gabriel has been a difference making defensive presence since he’s arrived, reeves has been solid as well…. the pelicans weren’t caught off guard…the lakers are the better team…… they simply went into the locker room like” :smugbiden:this is who we really are, bout time”…..That 3rd quarter first play on d they gave up a WIDE OPEN look to ol boy for three…and that’s the way the second half went…a good coach would have called timeout right then and got in they ass…but Vogel waits til the lead is down to 3…. Can’t tell me nothin bout this coach brehs
