Vogel: With James' thick eyebrows, finding chemistry, the Lakers always have a chance, and we're optimistic

The Lakers are currently ninth in the West with 26 wins and 28 losses, even in the playoffs. This is definitely not good news for the Lakers, who were considered to be favorites to win the championship before the start of the season. There are many reasons why the Lakers are struggling, and health is one of the big reasons: James and Thick Brow have missed many games due to injuries.

In the eyes of Lakers coach Vogel, the Lakers remain optimistic: "My optimism comes from the offseason, when you have James and thick eyebrows, you always have a chance. And obviously with Westbrook's performance, with Munch's performance, and our center, our flanks and our shooters, if we all find chemistry, with LeBron and AD to give us a guarantee, there's a chance. So we do feel optimistic. ”

In the NBA, having superstars is everything, so Vogel is absolutely right. But the game is definitely not a simple pile of stars to solve the problem, not to mention the stars also have to play, the Nets is the most realistic example.

Meanwhile, Lakers star James believes his team still has the ability to win the NBA championship. "I think it stems from some of the games we've played, the video analysis work we've put into. We knew we could catch the rhythm and hit some really good balls. But we can also play some not so good balls. Hopefully, a more consistent way of handling the game, both from an offensive point of view and from a defensive point of view, puts us in a position where we feel we can make a difference in this matter. ”
