We didn’t **** up not firing Vogel because nobody can save this mess but we did **** up with the following:
1. Not giving Lue his proper years/respect
2. Hiring Vogel over Kidd because the feedback/backlash at the time was bad. Vogel would’ve been the DC & there would be no difference. Vogel probably wasn’t getting another job.
3. Not fully backing Vogel. We should’ve had another coach but he won us a ring and deserved some respect. Not giving him proper security is a ***** move. You undermine his authority and all the players don’t have to take him seriously because they know he won’t be here next year.

Two average players would go a long ways.

Mavs just traded a terrible contract for 2 less terrible contracts and the team became exponentially better.
Russ is expiring. we can find decent players on bad deals.

-No talent on the squad 2 trade
-No draft picks to trade/find talent wit
-Mediocre free agency market upcoming
Might as well let em play, next season ain't looking 2 much better.

To open more options, they'd probably be better off ditching the 2023 plans. Easier to target a team that wants to get off long-term money with Westbrook's and THT's expiring. I don't think they will though.

Correct, the Lakers just need serviceable players at this point. Energy guys that can make up for Lebron's defensive shortcomings - he's still potent on offense and is a good facilitator when engaged.
AD really needs to work on his conditioning - maybe look into what Lebron uses for ankles and knees? Bracing can be restrictive but he's talented enough to adapt his game and I don't think too much modification is necessary.

even if its not all vogels fault you have to fire him.
historically coaches always take the fall for a team's bad play.
the lakers have looked extremely bad the past 4 games.
lue and kidd both have been struck by major injuries ALL season but are nowhere how bad we look.
no consequences and you just enable the **** show to continue.

At this point, I don't know what AD can do to fix his issues. Lose weight perhaps?

Vogels style is archaic. Face it. He doesn’t know how to adjust. This is the same guy that started DJ 20+ games.
Clippers mavs warriors etc play an elite switchable style game that can play big or small.
Vogel is too set on his ways
