Is Tyronn Lue delusional or just getting really bad advice?

That guy is lucky to have ever been a head coach in the NBA. Take the gig, man. Come on dude.

Coaching Lebron literally almost killed him the first time. He will land as an assistant somewhere

I don't think he's a great coach but the dude has a ring on his resume and multiple seasons of winning, which is better than like 95% of the coaches in the league.

Plus, they're asking him to save a crumbling organization.

He has all the leverage and the Lakers better realize that

He’s still owed 10 million from Cle. He was only there for the duration of LBJ and the Lakers wanted him to have Kidd on his staff.

Remember when Blatt and Lue interviewed for the Cle job? Lue was the AC that took over after firing Blatt. He wasn’t putting himself in that situation.

He was only offered 3 years 18 mill instead of the norm 5 years 25 mill. Also, lakers wanted to choose some of his assistants.

Less years and they want to choose your assistants, how are you gonna have any credibility or authority.

Did you know that the Lakers wanted to dictate his staff?

Maybe he wasn’t going to allow himself to be strong armed by the Lakers into taking a shite deal?

Probably has some sort of clause like most coaches that Cleveland lessens their payout based on his pay elsewhere as well

Never before has someone gotten so much run out of an Andrew Bogut injury. Dude literally gets hurt all the time and Lue is the only person to make his career out of it.

He’s already just known as lebrons puppet. How much worse can it be?
