Now that they have the #1 pick in this year’s draft, the Cleveland Cavaliers coaching job has become pretty attractive. Let’s just hope they don’t strike out like they presumably did last year.
The team has really ramped up their search. This week alone, the team is reportedly set to interview Tyronn Lue, Adrian Griffin and Lionel Hollins.
Whoever gets this gig, there will be immediate pressure on him to make the playoffs this year. After Mike Brown was fired following just one year in his return to Cleveland, maybe Dan Gilbert is growing weary of losing Post-LeBron.
Los Angeles Clippers assistant Tyronn Lue will interview later this week, followed by former Memphis coach Lionel Hollins. The Cavs also asked permission to speak to Clippers associate head coach Alvin Gentry, but it’s unclear if an interview with him has been scheduled
