If The Clippers Keep Sliding, Could The Lakers Be In Play For Tyronn Lue This Summer?

Anthony recaps a disappointing loss to the Warriors Saturday that was made all the more maddening by how it all played out.
He then takes a look at the Lakers schedule moving forward but can't help but feel frustrated knowing the Lakers are probably going to lose a dumb game here and there to a team they don't respect enough.
As a result, he looks at the likelihood of the team sitting 10th heading into the Play-In Tournament and what that would mean for all involved.
Finally, though, he looks at a fun hypothetical based on the Clippers' recent struggles. If they continue, and Steve Ballmer decides it's time to move on from Tyronn Lue, could the Lakers make good on their original sin from years ago? LeBron James would certainly approve.

Flippers aren't firing Lue. Let's stop with fantasy land

[@supavol]

He only has a year left on his deal and they have yet to extend him. If the Clippers don't make the conference finals, there's a very good chance he gets let go.

@@supavol Who would they find that's better?? There isn't any great options out there

[@supavol]

@@pnine23 that doesn't matter to the front office trying to save their own jobs. They have no assets unless they sign and trade George (I don't know who else would want to give Harden any real money) so they're kinda locked into this roster. If they don't meet expectations...easiest thing to change is the coach.

@@supavol Fair enough. I just don't think they'll fire Lue

Stop juggling coaches. Laker fans would hate ty lue in one season like every coach they get.

10 seed is just gonna be exhausting for us to have faith in our play in game(s)

Fr I don't have hope for the play in games

No

this guy is a weird homer. you can see the thirst in his eyes when he talks clippers

Unfortunately, your take or analysis is not totally accurate. LeBron’s 3 pts were not reviewed and taken away during the Draymond Green’s review. It was prior to that. As always, thank you for you take and analysis.
