It has nothing to do with 'defensively'. We were/are the number 1 defensive team in the league with Trez playing the majority of the backup 5 minutes. So whatever he "lacked" didn't take away from us defensively, and it helped our offense due to his ability to get his own offense and score.
The true problem, is Vogel is stubborn about playing Trez and Gasol together with Trez defending at the 4 and Gasol defending at the 5 because he somehow things "playing two centers is hard" despite the fact Trez would be doing his damage in the paint, and Gasol on the outside and with his passing. In addition to Trez bodying up people his size and Gasol being defensive against centers.
It's pretty much upon Vogel's stubbornness which is why we don't see Trez. Vogel is incapable of realizing you can play Trez and Gasol together. _________________ How NBA 2K18 failed the All-Time Lakers:

Trezz in short bursts with Lebron to run the pick n roll can still be very effective. Most likely not in this series, but if we say perhaps play portland, Trezz could absolutely eat them alive for stretches. Portland is one of the weaker defensive teams in the playoffs so you can get away with playing Trezz in that matchup. Against Denver he likely wouldn't have much use, and against the Jazz he might be ok I'm not too sure on that one.

My guess is, once Gasol gets switched during the P&R, it usually ends up an open lane for the opponent guard to just drive to the paint. Vogel probably doesn't trust Trez's help defense and his judgement.
Was obvious last season he needed to be benched. I still don't understand why we signed him.
At the time of the signing I thought it was to provide 25-30 net-positive minutes from the bench and thus save regular season wear-and-tear on AD/Gasol. Measured against that standard the Trezz experiment didn't completely fail, it kinda worked at a C/C+ level.

THIS!! Frank has not put Trez in a position to succeed which is what any coach worth their salt is supposed to do. There will be several instances where we will need Trez's spark and energy during our march. Give the kid enough run so he doesn't get down and is ready when called upon. I have been impressed with Trez. He doesn't seem like he is moping because of the DNP's.
This idiot was trolling clips in the middle of a series. Now AD is injured and this clown is collecting DNPs. If AD doesnt comeback, we are going home.

Ok . That must make you a great laker fan
I said it before, i will say again. I am a lakers fan because i like lebron. I started watchibg basketball just a few years ago. So i dont get all the hate towards clippers or celtics.
Just like last year, i want clippers to lose before they meet us. I don't see us defeating clippers. It was tough last year and will be tougher this year.

Good for you all
At least it makes a little more sense with many of your posts knowing you just started watching basketball a few years ago. I have a 4 year old nephew I watch some games with and I get a very similar vibe with you two. You'll understand the game one day though, hopefully.
