On January 20, Beijing time, NBA celebrities, former NBA player Perkins talked about Los Angeles Lakers coach Vogel in a live broadcast program. In this regard, Perkins also gave his own views and supported Vogel.
Perkins said: "It's ridiculous that Vogel has become a scapegoat for the team, I want to see LeBron James and Anthony Davis come forward to support him, and it's not Vogel's fault that the Lakers are doing badly right now."
In addition, in the previous game, the Lakers had lost to the Nuggets by 37 points, and Vogel suffered a sacking crisis. If the Lakers lose miserably to the Jazz again, then for Vogel, he is likely to be fired.
However, at present, the Lakers will evaluate Vogel's existence every game, so Vogel's sacking crisis has not been lifted. The Lakers executives are also paying close attention to the team's locker room, which is also to see if Vogel can still control the locker room.
According to sources, Lambis (lakers basketball director) made it clear to the coaching staff at the beginning of the season that if the Lakers' situation does not improve this season, then the entire coaching staff is at risk of being replaced.
At present, the Lakers' record is not good, and the team Lakers have a record of 22 wins and 22 losses, ranking eighth in the West, with a win rate of only 50%.
