Ty Lue revealed that LeBron James called him after the Lakers gave him a dispresctful offer
Clippers head coach Ty Lue and LeBron James have a very deep connection. So much so, that when the Lakers gave Lue a very low-ball head coaching offer, it downright upset James and caused him to go to bat for Lue in 2019.
"I don't think they had the same respect for me as I felt they should," Lue said of the Lakers. "They offered me the job on a three-year basis and they wanted to pick my coaching staff, and I just wasn't going to do that. For me to be a championship coach, to take a three-year deal when everyone else is getting five-year deals, and more money, and then you wanna pick my staff as well? I just thought that was a slap in the face.
