Vogel: Every time we pack Jokic, we pay the price, and the opponent shoots hot

Tiger Punch, January 16, 2016 The Lakers suffered a 96-133 away defeat to the Nuggets, suffering three consecutive defeats. After the game, Lakers coach Frank Vogel was interviewed.

Speaking about the vibrancy of the team, Vogel said: "I think when you get squashed, sometimes you see bad body language. I think that's the case. But we need to overcome the difficulties better. The vibrancy of our opening was really good. Listen, Jokic has created a lot of defensive puzzles, for any defense. He made a lot of misplaced offenses and you needed to pack him, and they made every time we packed it paid the price. So praise them for playing a great game on the offensive end, shooting hot, but we need to do better. ”

"We need to get back to the tactical board and fix our defence. We haven't been good defensively enough in the last few games. Offensively, we didn't move as much as we had in a while before. When we played the outside five, we didn't make more use of our next teammate, we didn't attack the box as often as before, and basketball stalled too many rounds. There are definitely some aspects that we can correct, and we will correct, but we certainly have to improve the defense as well. Vogel said.
