Vogel: We adjusted to a small-ball team last series, but I would expect us to return to form

McGee and Howard played a combined 23 minutes over the final four games of conference semifinals

The Los Angeles Lakers are expected to give more minutes to JaVale McGee and Dwight Howard in the Western Conference Finals against the Denver Nuggets.

Per ESPN, “’Joker’ is one of the most unique players in the world, and one of the most unique players ever to play the center position in this league,” Vogel said Wednesday. “He can basically hurt you in all ways. He can hurt you at the 3-point line, in the pocket, playing the 4-on-3 game in the post, and obviously with his passing. …
“It does make this series a little different — a lot different, actually — in terms of how much we’ll use our centers. I don’t want to get too much into detail, but obviously we’re going to be the L.A. Lakers, who we’ve been all year. We adjusted to a small-ball team last series, but I would expect us to return to form.”
