The fact that they already fired Frank Vogel then I assume that they are already eyeing someone else to do the vacant job. The Lakers management have those money to hire coaches again but the question is, does this new future head coach can give them the goal they want? We'll see about that soon. It's just sad for me to think that after Frank Vogel gave them a championship title last 2020, he will be just fired just like that without getting informed before it was leaked.
After this season, maybe even coach Vogel did not get that early notice. I'm thinking that he's also feeling it that he won't get another
shot for this team. Like you, it's sad though because he brings a title from this team and by respect, he should be informed about the plan first
instead of knowing it by means of leaking in the news. As a title coach, he deserves better treatment and not this kind of firing him and vacant the
job. Best of luck to him. If not in the NBA, there is always an open opportunity for sure.
