Storm Fire Head Coach After A Rough 2-13 Start, Ink Ty Lue To 1-Year/$2.95M Deal

Image
Ty Lue is most notable for coaching the Cleveland Cavaliers to an NBA championship in his first season.


After an ugly beginning to the Kentucky Storm franchise, the front office has announced the firing of head coach Ben Washington.

One could argue with the Storm's current roster, the head coaching position is doomed to fail no matter who holds the position.

However, later that day it was announced that the Storm and former Cavs' head coach Tyronn Lue have agreed to a 1-year deal worth $2.95M.

Lue has decided to rebrand his name as an NBA head coach after catching flack for the Cavs' success due to the best player in the world, LeBron James, really running the show.

Lue won his NBA championship with current Storm' players Iman Shumpert and JR Smith so here's to hoping that may spark a winning culture moving forward.

Shump flushed it down on Kanter in this game. AND-1

Image

Celebrates by looking at Bryson Tiller sitting courtside. He said "Call me!". Guess Shump wants to be on the next album.

I enjoy how the announcer just says "SWISH" when JR scores.

Derrick Jones Jr. should be making his return to the dunk contest this year.

Marvin Williams decided to posterize Alex Poythress in the first quarter. Crowd was stunned.

Shabazz Muhammad returned the favor though and absolutely bodied Cody Zeller.
