Tyronn Lue not expected to leave Clippers
Friday was a true roller-coaster day for the in-demand Tyronn Lue. It was his 47th birthday … and the day that sealed the Clippers’ second consecutive first-round exit … and the day that it emerged that the Clippers are determined to re-sign him to an extension after minimal discussion about an extension to that point. The final season on Lue’s current contract is a team option for next season. Multiple sources with knowledge of the Clippers’ intentions shared the belief Friday that Lue is “not going anywhere.”Source: marcstein.substack.com

Ty Lue says once again he’s left to wonder “what if” the Clippers were able to stay healthy and have a healthy Kawhi Leonard and Paul George. He credits Dallas and Jason Kidd. He felt the Clippers ran out of gas in the second half after Lue leaned on starters heavy. – 12:45 AM

The move for Ty Lue is to re-up with the Clippers and tie the length of his contract to when the expansion teams start, and then LeBron can hire him for the Vegas team he’s going to own. – 3:18 PM

Somehow landing Ty Lue would be home run for the Lakers. I can’t see it happening, considering his situation, but you never know.
JJ Redick makes no sense to me. Another first-timer and someone with zero coaching experience? Where’s the logic there? – 3:03 PM
Chris Mannix @SIChrisMannix
I can’t fathom why the Clippers would let Ty Lue go to the Lakers. Lue, regardless of how this season ends, is considered an elite head coach. With a year left on his contract, no less. There’s absolutely no reason for the Clips to do the Lakers any favors. – 2:51 PM

Mike Budenholzer, Kenny Atkinson, JJ Redick and Ty Lue, if he becomes available, are viewed as the Lakers’ top head coaching candidates, per @ShamsCharania (theathletic.com/5460754/2024/0…). pic.twitter.com/Y7HP0T3phQ – 2:40 PM

End of James availability
How it starts and ends with James and PG as leaders… how he knows what Dallas wants to do to make him uncomfortable and how it is about what he does more than what they do, and Tyronn Lue being even keeled and rest of team is as well.

More on this storyline
Ohm Youngmisuk: Asked about @wojespn report that Clippers are working to keep him long term, Ty Lue said he hopes to remain with the Clippers for a long time. He cited his relationships with and learning from Steve Ballmer, Lawrence Frank, Trent Redden and Mark Hughes. -via Twitter @NotoriousOHM / May 4, 2024
Clippers coach Ty Lue is regarded as one of the top coaches in the league and has a team option for the upcoming 2024-25 season, which is the final season of his contract. Lue and his representative, Andy Miller of Klutch Sports Group, will look to secure a long-term extension this offseason, as ESPN reported. Many in coaching circles around the league believe Lue will command a salary in line with some of the highest-paid coaches in the league. -via HoopsHype / May 4, 2024
Michael Scotto: Clippers coach Ty Lue on his future: “I didn’t come here to bounce around and go all over the place. Mr. Ballmer, Lawrence (Frank), Mark (Hughes), and Trent (Redden) have all been great to me. This is where I want to be. Hopefully, they feel the same way.” pic.twitter.com/4OC6FsYzNN -via Twitter @MikeAScotto / May 4, 2024
