Lue：人們覺得沒有LBJ我做不到，想證明自己有能力執教

Despite winning a championship and helping guide the Cavs to the greatest comeba
ck in NBA Finals history by erasing a 3-1 deficit to beat Golden State in 2016,
Lue doesn't get a lot of credit for the title that many instead will remember as
 James willing a championship to Cleveland.



Lue is quick to call James "the best player in the world" who made him a better
coach. But as Miami's Erik Spoelstra knows, it can take a long time for a coach
to emerge from James' shadow.

Lue很快就稱LBJ為“世界上最好的球員”，這讓他成為了一名更好的教練。但正如邁阿密的
Spoelstra所知，一名總教練可能需要很長時間才能擺脫LBJ的陰影。

“LeBron’s been in the league, what, 18 years?” Lue says. “He won four champi
onships. So that don’t mean you’re automatically going to win because you have
 LeBron James. So I do coach with a chip on my shoulder because, like people say
, ‘Oh, he can’t do it without LeBron. He can’t …'”



Lue had an opportunity to reunite with James when the Lakers interviewed him for
 the coaching job in 2019. But the Lakers offered Lue a three-year deal worth $1
8 million, far below the five-year, $35-million deal he had with the Cavs, and w
anted to dictate Lue's staff. Lue pulled out of negotiations and the Lakers hire
d Frank Vogel.



"The Lakers [saw it] more so as like [I'm just] coming to coach LeBron," Lue sai
d. "No, I'm coming to win. I just didn't think I was treated fairly. And I wasn'
t just going to accept any offer just to get a job.

"I just thought I was better than that."


iami," Lue says of emerging out of James' shadow. "It's also made me want to be
better because not having LeBron, now I got to show people that I know my stuff.
 Like I can really coach. And I still got to get a lot better.

"But I just want to prove to people that I can coach."
