Well deserved, he turned LerBon into a disciplined superstar and brought out the super skills in the finals.
I'm glad to have witnessed the birth of a coaching genius. I'll be able to tell my children someday that I've followed the great Lue since the beginning. What a time to be alive.
Any championship winning coach should be rewarded with a solid deal, but the money is a little high. I don't see anyone else paying him that kind of money, there's no threat out there. But it doesn't affect their cap, so whatever. Not my money.
Perfect pic of Blatt haha In case anyone was wondering (which you prob weren't) here are his salaries as a player (source http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/l/luety01.html). 1998-99 Los Angeles Lakers NBA $287,500 1999-00 Los Angeles Lakers NBA $809,280 2000-01 Los Angeles Lakers NBA $865,800 2001-02 Washington Wizards NBA $1,700,000 2002-03 Washington Wizards NBA $1,870,000 2003-04 Orlando Magic NBA $1,500,000 2004-05 Houston Rockets NBA $1,600,000 2005-06 Atlanta Hawks NBA $3,500,000 2006-07 Atlanta Hawks NBA $3,500,000 2007-08 Sacramento Kings NBA $3,500,000 2008-09 Orlando Magic NBA $2,250,000 You can go ahead and adjust for inflation on your own...but wow the man got one of his nicest paydays mostly for just being in the right place at the right time haha. Lebron should be getting a nice thank you gift very soon
you went thru all those trouble to find this old thread to add some useless comment, capt obvious? Don't think Cavs' offense got anything to do with Lue's contract.
