Kendrick Perkins told viewers on SportsCenter with Scott Van Pelt that the Los Angeles Lakers are asking themselves, “What else can we do?” as they face a 2-0 deficit following a Game 2 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder, per the report.
Perkins joined the ESPN program to discuss the Lakers’ recent defeat to the Thunder, and his remark was presented as a summation of the team’s mindset while trailing in the series, the report says.
The report does not provide additional details of Perkins’ analysis on specific strategies, rotations or personnel adjustments the Lakers might pursue after the Game 2 loss, nor does it offer further comments from team members or staff.
The appearance is one item among several topics noted in the same roundup, which also listed notes about other league and sports developments, per the report.
Per the report, Perkins’ concise question framed the broader conversation about how the Lakers are responding to the early series deficit, but the report stops short of outlining immediate next steps or a timeline for when the team will address the issues discussed on the show.
