Now that Kevin Garnett has retired, he’ll have to find something else to do keep himself occupied. Cavs head coach Tyronn Lue thinks he has just the thing. Lue is actively trying to recuit KG to be a part of the Cavs coaching staff.
Even though he’s 40, Garnett has a young soul and would mesh very well with today’s NBA players. But does he want to do something like that so soon. And how does LeBron feel about all of this? Garnett and James didn’t always seem like best friends during the Boston – Miami days.
“I talked to him about it,” Lue said Thursday, following the Cavs’ practice. “I know his wife is pushing for it a lot. Brandi is pushing for it, trying to get him to come and coach. He says he’s not ready yet. He goes back, ‘I might do it,’ but he’s back and forth. We’ll see.
“But I’d definitely make a spot for him if he wanted to come back and coach.”
Lue said Garnett would be in Cleveland for the Cavs’ opening night ceremonies, which will include the raising of the franchise’s first championship banner.
