It was a difficult season for the Los Angeles Lakers. Armed with Anthony Davis, LeBron James and Russell Westbrook: Big things were expected of a team that won an NBA championship two seasons ago.
Flash forward to the present, and James is tweeting about postseason games instead of playing in them. Things never came together for Los Angeles during the season. Injuries to both Davis and James hurt, but the most frustrating member of the squad was Westbrook, who never seemed to jell with his teammates on the court.
Turns out, that was a major reason why the Lakers fired Frank Vogel after the season, according to Sam Amick of The Athletic.
