Back to the Los Angeles Lakers Newsfeed

Was the Lakers bungling this season always the likeliest outcome?

Following the latest reminder that season turning points without fundamental changes are mostly creations of our own imaginations, Sabreena Merchant and I recorded another episode of “I Loathe Basketball.”

We spent the first half or so of the episode looking back on Frank Vogel’s Lakers tenure, given that the news cycle would’ve let anyone capable of reading to believe another loss like last night would end it. However, because this organization makes no sense anymore, we then had to adjust to reports that somehow his job was safe.

I mean, no one actually believes it’s safe, but whatever.
