AD not playing C to close this game tells me Vogel is still experimenting w/ what this new group can/can't do rather than just chasing the win. Could have just closed w/ Kieff to defend RoCo, but went w/ Trez instead.

Looked like AD phoned it in. Got to call it for what it was

Dwight or JaVale in same coverages wouldn’t fix tonight’s issues
Dwight or JaVale in the same coverages wouldn’t fix the issues we saw tonight.
Playing them in drop doesn’t either.
Yes, they’d help in specific areas, but the root cause of the loss tonight isn’t fixed with them in for Harrell/Gasol/whoever. https://t.co/BqxQmzLGYT

Lakers lose for first time in 58 games leading going into 4th quarter
The Lakers were 57-0 last season (including the playoffs) when leading after three quarters. Tonight, they led 85-84 heading into the 4th Q and lost 115-107. New season, indeed.
