He’s cool I guess. I dunno, I miss mediocre Caruso

The first coach not named Phil Jackson to get an extension as a Laker

I think he'll stay as long as Bron is here ... After Bron retires probably lose him?

We will see if Vogel can truly make this present team play good defense now that KCP, Caruso and Kuzma are gone. KCP was tasked to chase quick PGs like Schroder. Caruso can guard 3 positions and rotate to taller shooters, Kyle is not exactly a lock up defender but he’s a hardworker.
They hired Bazemore and Ariza and the challenge is not over relying on them and not benching shooters like Ellington and Monk.

Cool... Pretty sure he lowers the average age of the team. :clap:

Had to be done or the organization would’ve looked pathetic. It was starting to become that.

Strange to see no one has information on how many years, so far.

KUZ WAS TOP 25 IN DEF WIN SHARES UNDER FRANK AND TOP 90 PERCENTILE AS AN ISO DEFENDER LAST YEAR :lol:

I mean if he can get that out of Kuzma, he can get somethign out of others. Hell he would have made Ingram and Ball so much better

All 3 names you mentioned are young players aged under 26. They have that lateral quickness to keep their man in front of them and at the same time cover more ground to rotate quick enough to close down on shooters. THT is still learning, Monk is short...I just hope Frank won’t bench Ellington and Melo because they’re not as good KCP and Kuz respectively.

First year we won a championship.
Second year, we had the best statistical defense in the league despite so many injuries which is his bread and butter.

We're not going to find a better coach right now to replace him so the extension makes sense.

First year, Lakers had Danny Green, KCP, Caruso, Kuzma with Dwight and McGhee.
2nd year, Matthews replaced Green with a motivated speedster Schroder while benching Marc and Harrell because they can’t switch to perimeter shooters.
This season, no more KCP, Caruso and Kuzma, probably Matthews too, In comes Ellington, Melo, Nunn, let us see if he has this great ability to coach these guys to play defense and not bench them and not over rely on Bazemore and Ariza.

Vogel has been great. Congrats, Frank! :clap:

Thread title should say "stays"?

You might be the only one who still think Vogel needs to prove that coaching top defensive teams wasn't a fluke. Caruso is probably the only player we'll miss on defense. Ariza has not been a good defender in years.
