As they are now on the brink of a painful elimination, the Los Angeles Lakers are still expected to fire head coach Frank Vogel following this season, as provided by Jake Fischer of Bleacher Report.
After harnessing sky high expectations while enjoying plenty of promising aspirations prior to the start of the season, the Lakers are suddenly trapped in a peculiar place of misery.

Los Angeles, now two wins away of the San Antonio Spurs for the last spot of the play-in tourney, will have a daunting road to claw back and survive their season. They are set to face the gigantic Phoenix Suns, Golden State Warriors and the Denver Nuggets in three of their last four regular season games.
