Despite a roster at his disposal that is just as, if not more impressive than last year according to some, Frank Vogel admitted that he still thought with nostalgia two Lakers players who left during the offseason.
After a first trip away from Los Angeles spent in San Antonio and Memphis, the Lakers have started a second road trip for a few days under the theme of reunion. At first, Wes Matthews was able to face his former Bucks teammates, beforeAnthony Davis is a hit in his hometown of Chicago.
Then it’s LeBron James who returned to his homelands to detonate the Cavaliers overnight Monday through Tuesday. But as the meeting against the Sixers loomed, it was in the opposite direction that a reunion was being prepared. Local of the stage, Frank Vogel has indeed crossed paths with Dwight Howard and Danny Green, to his delight.

Why Howard has his champion ring … but not yet Green

Yeah, I miss those guys. You know, it’s hard to see them on a new team. They were two players who really excelled in their roles, and this is something that is so necessary in a run for the title… You don’t become champion without these kinds of players. They are greatly missed, and I look forward to seeing them in person.
Obviously, this statement is not a pique in the direction of the recruits supposed to replace the two old members of the house. Vogel just wanted to recall the importance that they could have in the game of Angelinos last year, but also in the locker room. Last night, it is thus under the jersey of Philly that they found their old franchise.
And if Howard did not especially contribute to the victory of his team with only 7 minutes played, Green proved to be much more valuable for his new team. The sniper notably remembered the good memories of his former partners by planting his first 3 shots from a distance. Given his testimony about him, not sure Frank Vogel holds it against him.
To want to insist too much on the importance of their contribution in the title acquired a few months ago, Frank Vogel has perhaps a little too much confidence in Dwight Howard, but especially Danny Green. He paid the price for his first duel against them since that run.
