The Los Angeles Lakers are having a turbulent season. They are currently in the ninth spot in the West and are eight games below.500. The Lakers have struggled throughout the year and have been dealing with injuries all season long.

In light of this, many have called Frank Vogel to be fired as the head coach. Moreover, Vogel’s coaching and in-game-calling ability have been called into question and many rumors suggest there is discontent in the locker room.

Reports also suggest that he has lost the confidence of the players. However, the Lakers still haven’t thought about firing Frank Vogel and a senior NBA Reporter answers why.

The Lakers management believe firing the coach won’t matter

Adrian Wojnarowski reveals why the Los Angeles Lakers haven’t thought about firing Vogel. He says “Two primary reasons I’m told, One, they are accounting for the fact that Anthony Davis is out and has missed a lot of games this season, Kendrick Nunn hasn’t played yet this season, a guard they signed they could not impact this team.”

“But they don’t feel in LA right now, It would make a difference- to let Frank Vogel go. This is the team that wants to still get in the play in, to get Anthony Davis back, to find a way to get their group and they still have a coach in Frank Vogel, there that has won a championship there, who’s had success in the playoffs… But the Lakers would still like to get through the season with Frank Vogel. “

Woj also suggests not all coaches could have survived the week, the Lakers have had, but Vogel did, suggesting that the front office still trusts him.

The Lakers have had a horrible week, losing all their games. And the lack of effort in those games has called Vogel’s coaching style into scrutiny. But the Lakers still trust Vogel to get through this torrid season. They would want to see how far he can take this team in the playoffs and reevaluate his position later on.
