    He was totally gonna choose the Rockets over the Clippers (where he was an assistant)
    James was totally gonna stay because he got “his coach”. (Just like he wanted & was excited about playing with John Wall lulz)

    Why would we want a broken down Harden?

    Ty Lue has flaws. He isn’t the most organized head coach. He at times defers too much to his veterans and he doesn’t come up with a game plan entering a series very well.

    However he has an incredibly ability to make adjustments in game and through a series. Once he adjusts, he usually gets the upper hand. The closest in the league to making adjustments is Carlisle and Popovich.

    Lue wasn't going to take minimum wage to coach the Rockets.

    sadly you are probably right.. silas is probably the only coach willing to coach at the salary tilman was offering. cutting corners doesnt work

    I’ll give him credit for this series. Still didn’t want him to coach harden and Westbrook. Lue made his career professionally on defense so yeah he knows how to adjust defensively from a coaching standpoint.

    Also add Utah to the list of teams that might be interested in Wall with Conley leaving.

    Playoff P was supposed to be a positive but became a negative due to his play

    Playoff L(ue)’s connotation is to be determined

    y’all are gonna start putting some respek on Ty Lue’s name

    too many people on here acting like he’s some trash tier coach

    MDA wouldn’t have even played Terrance Mann, he would’ve been a bench mannequin

    to win in Utah, then come and win this game 6 as well leading the Clippers to their 1st ever conference finals…a trash coach who is supposed to be nothing without Lebron isn’t doing that

    Quin Synder out here blowing 3-1 leads in the bubble and then losing 4 straight games to the Clippers even with Kawhi getting injured…I bet he won’t see anywhere near the amount of disrespect Ty Lue has received

    I wonder why that is?

    I think he is almost too organized to the point of being over bearing. He starts series off great then barely wins in the end. He also lets rookies play before they really earn it.

    just my opinion.
