The Lakers have lost again, and fans are hoping for changes in the coming days, to try and salvage what’s left of this season. Russell Westbrook is the first concerned, he who could pay for the recent results of his team: nothing to delight the player.
27-35, this is the new record of the Lakers during this exercise, after another humiliation against the Clippers. Without a doubt, Tyronn Lue’s men are the best in Los Angeles, while the Angelinos can say goodbye to a place in the playoffs. This is at least true for direct access, but there is still play-in.
Only here, given the current dynamics and the form of the Pelicans, can the Poupre et Or miss the train? The answer is yes. The next few weeks promise to be decisive, but whatever the scenario, the supporters have lost hope. Access the postseason? What purpose ? One wonders.
Russell Westbrook soon punished by the Lakers?
The title ? Given the level, the Angelinos can forget. It is clear that this roster is not working, and Frank Vogel could lose his position very soon. Same idea concerning Rob Pelinka, who is still responsible for this slump. We’re expecting some cleaning for the summer, but maybe Russell Westbrook won’t be waiting that long.

Frank Vogel on whether he discussed bringing Russell Westbrook off the bench: ‘We talked about everything’.
Yes, Vogel and Westbrook discussed the possibility of bringing him off the bench. We should have the answer in the next few days, but the coach must try something: the current formula does not work, which calls for profound changes in the City of Angels. Russ could be the first to be sanctioned, but not the last. Either way, he won’t give up.
Russell Westbrook, among other things he said tonight: I’m not a quitter. It’s not in my genes. … I’m never gonna give up because of a little struggle.

Holder or present off the bench, Russell Westbrook will give everything for the Lakers, until the end. We can appreciate the behavior of the leader, who remains positive, regardless of defeats. Still, fans expect more from him on the court, not off it.
