People still wanna give Vogel the "Well he's just experimenting" excuse?

| What exactly is the role of kuzma now? He only took 2 shots, not rebounding much, certainly not there for defense or play makings |

Trezz at least scored well, but Kuz did nothing but stupid fouls. |

But still need to get bench. They started going downhill the moment he was subbed in. No need to risk that again as they need to tie the series next game. |

Why bench Harrell? He was the only guy that actually showed up to play today. |

Master of adjustments last playoffs. Let's see what he has for game 2. Usually he needs 1 game to figure out the other team based on last season.

| I still cant figure out why so many double teams??? Are we playing against Kobe or Jordan maybe or Booker and old CP3. Come on our defenders are more than capable of defending them in normal way. No need to double every possession and expose yourself like that. Just play normal though defense. |

I wrote this in a bother post, I think your correct. Sometime sending all these guys open up the whole floor for others. At least man up and if the time comes send help. |

| Booker was ready for it as well, he simply curled around the two guys and then had an easier time getting to the basket. |

I fully understand doubling Curry. He is best shooter ever and one for he best players in the league. But Booker??? Really???
We played last year against much better players than Booker( Lillard for example) and we didn't double him all the time. So I really don't see any point in this. |

I trust Vogel in making in-series adjustments. We’ve seen it in all four series last year. I don’t see why he won’t now.
If I had his position, this is the lineup I would go with
Gasol (20) - AD (24) - Morris (4)
AD (12) - Morris (12) - Kuzma (24)
LeBron (34) - KCP (8) - THT (6)
Wes (18) - Caruso (26) - THT (4)
KCP (24) - Dennis (24) |

I agree. In his post press conference he said we have to make shots and that included possible lineup changes.
I expect better spacing next game. |

| Does Vogel have something personal against Gasol? Seriously. I'm puzzled by some of his decisions lately. |

i'm almost of the thought that gasol is refusing to play or something. but where's keif too?
unless frank is playing high stakes poker and will not show all his cards at once (rotations).

I really think Frank needs to start thinking about having DS come off the bench and start AC. Not only does it allow Shroo to bust the oppo's 2nd unit, but it would make it easier to stagger DS and Bron. It's pretty apparent that you need one of Dennis and LBJ on the floor at all times. AC is not a playmaker, plus he's just a better fit with the starters.

| Kuz needs to have a role or he needs to be benched. Getting a rebound is not good enough |

I literally lol'd when Vogel played ten different Lakers in the first quarter in this win vs. the Suns. I guess that's one way to be unpredictable.  |

You have to get Dennis “I want to start” Schroder to agree. I don’t see him doing it when his main goal is to get a $25M per year 4-5 year deal. |
