Sources: Contract length at heart of impasse between Lakers and coaching
candidate Tyronn Lue

The primary issue that ended talks between the Los Angeles Lakers and
head-coaching candidate Tyronn Lue was contract length, league sources told
Yahoo Sports.
根據聯盟消息，導致湖人與Tyronn Lue之間談判破裂的原因主要在於合約長度。
The Lakers offered Lue a three-year deal worth $5 million, $6 million and $8
million annually, sources said. Lue asked for a five-year deal, the same
length former coach Luke Walton had, sources said.
湖人本來提供三年，各500萬、600萬、800萬的合約給Lue。
但消息人士稱，Lue希望一份為期5年的合約，要與前教練Luke Walton一樣。
Under the Lakers’ proposal, the contracts of Lue and LeBron James would
expire at the same time.
而根據湖人原先的計畫，Lue和LeBron James的合約應該同時到期。
The Lakers pushed for former NBA coaches Frank Vogel and Jason Kidd to be
added to Lue’s coaching staff, sources said. Although Lue wasn’t fond of
having his staff picked for him, he would have relented if his contract terms
were met, sources said.
而湖人本來打算安排前NBA教練Frank Vogel & Jason Kidd作為Lue的教練團成員，
儘管Lue本身不喜歡由別人代為挑選自己的教練團，但如果合約內容滿足Lue的需求，
他就會接受湖人方面對於教練團的安排。

Ty Lue and his reps turned down the Lakers’ offer Tuesday, per league
sources. LAL regrouped with an offer in the range of 3 years, $18 million
today. Lue’s side pulled out of negotiations. Lue’s camp seeking 5 year
deal with salary commensurate with championship resume
而根據NBA記者Dave McMenamin報導，
Lue與經紀人已經在美國時間周二拒絕了湖人的報價。
湖人在今天重新提出一份3年總值1800萬美元的合約，但最終Lue及其代表退出了談判，
因為Lue陣營尋求的是一份為期5年，且可以與Lue總冠軍教頭身分相匹配的合約。
