Currently with Team USA where he serves as assistant to Steve Kerr, Tyronn Lue had the good news to learn that the Clippers had guaranteed his last year of contract, and that he would remain at the helm of the team until 2025. We imagine that he would have preferred to sign a new lease when the Clippers are preparing to move to Inglewood, but the main thing is the coming season, with the desire to finally meet expectations. Especially in the regular season when the team tends to let go…
“The most important thing for us is to make sure that our players are healthy and that we do the right thing for them, but that said, we also have to take the regular season more seriously by giving it our all every night. and winning matches” repeat Lue au LA Times. “Our fans deserve it. They’ve been supporting us for a long time and, as I said, we’ve had a few unfortunate injuries. It’s part of the game. When we’re healthy and feeling good, we have to make sure we do everything to win. »
Do not wait for the last ten matches to give it your all
And Lue recalls that the final position in the regular season remains important, to avoid finding yourself facing a big arm in the first round, and the sooner the better! “But the most important thing is to try to get a good place to avoid the last 10 games of the season being tough matches to avoid the play-in. These are matches where you can rest and prepare physically for the playoffs.
Optimistic for the coming season since Kawhi Leonard and Paul George will be in uniform from the training camp, Lue spoke of the extension of Russell Westbrook’s contract, and his role. “I consider him a starter, and I’ll see what happens. We needed his energy, his firepower and he was very useful to us. My vision for now is to stay like we were before PG got hurt and see what happens. »
