Los Angeles Lakers head coach Frank Vogel revealed the two things that have impressed him most about Carmelo Anthony to begin the 2021-22 NBA season.
“I think first I’d say probably just the care factor on that side of the ball. Reputation is reputation, but he’s had the mindset to come in and pull his own weight and then some on the defensive side of the ball and be part of a great defense,” Vogel said.
“He asks good questions, makes sure he’s sharp with all of our coverages, and I think the other more specific thing is something you don’t see when you’re coaching against him is he’s a great communicator defensively.
