Vogel introduction caught up in ongoing Lakers drama | |
EL SEGUNDO, Calif. (AP) Frank Vogel's determination to build "organizational togetherness" within the Los Angeles Lakers met the reality of the team's current dysfunction Monday. Vogel's introduction as the Lakers' coach was almost overshadowed by comments made earlier by Magic Johnson. The former Lakers great appeared on ESPN's "First Take" and said general manager Rob Pelinka "betrayed" him, which was one of the reasons he resigned as president of basketball operations. That put the GM in the position of using most of Vogel's 26-minute news conference to respond. Pelinka said he has talked to Johnson several times since his resignation on April 9 and said Johnson's comments surprised him. MORE | |
