104-107, the Lakers lost to the Thunder at home, ending a three-game winning streak.
After the game, Lakers coach Frank Vogel was interviewed by reporters and talked about his views on the game:
"The NBA game is long, and it really doesn't make any sense to get a big lead in today's NBA... You have to keep playing and learn from last week [that defeat]. Vogel said.
Regarding the final attack, Vogel revealed that the coaching staff's original arrangement was to let melon shoot the top three points:
"We want to get better shooting opportunities than that. You know, the space isn't great, and we want melons to go to the top of the arc to catch the ball (shoot the front three points), but the space isn't great. Vogel continued.
When asked if the run-in between Westbrook and the team has progressed since the last game against the Thunder, Vogel replied:
"It's about continuing to learn in our system what we ask him to do." One of them is control lapses, and he's done a better job. We'll let him keep playing inside and create as many scoring opportunities as possible. ”
Wei Shao's mistake was very injurious, but what really buried the game was the team's poor offensive performance in the middle of the fourth quarter (more than 4 minutes without a point):
"I had to go back and look at the footage, and (in the middle of the fourth quarter) we lost a lot of layups, a lot of empty three-pointers. We got good shooting chances, but that's one of those times when we don't score. You have to rely on your defense, and that's just not enough. Vogel said.
