INDEPENDENCE: The first words Cavaliers coach Tyronn Lue might say to his counterpart, Mike Brown of the Golden State Warriors when they see one another before the start of the NBA Finals on Thursday are: “Here’s the cash.”
“Mike, I owe him 100 dollars from when I was a rookie,” Lue said Saturday afternoon at Cleveland Clinic Courts. “That’s all I ever know about Mike. I tried to pay him and he wouldn’t take the money so he says I always owe him. He’s always been a great guy.”
So what happened exactly for an NBA assistant coach to get a heads up on a young player?
