Lue：人們覺得沒有LBJ我做不到，想證明自己有能力執教
Despite winning a championship and helping guide the Cavs to the greatest comeba
ck in NBA Finals history by erasing a 3-1 deficit to beat Golden State in 2016,
Lue doesn't get a lot of credit for the title that many instead will remember as
James willing a championship to Cleveland.
儘管在2016年1:3落後時逆轉擊敗金州勇士隊拿下總冠軍，並幫助騎士隊完成NBA總冠軍賽歷
史上最偉大的逆轉，但Lue並沒有因為這個冠軍而獲得太多讚譽，許多人反而會記住LBJ 願
意為克利夫蘭贏得總冠軍。
Lue is quick to call James "the best player in the world" who made him a better
coach. But as Miami's Erik Spoelstra knows, it can take a long time for a coach
to emerge from James' shadow.
Lue很快就稱LBJ為“世界上最好的球員”，這讓他成為了一名更好的教練。但正如邁阿密的
Spoelstra所知，一名總教練可能需要很長時間才能擺脫LBJ的陰影。
“LeBron’s been in the league, what, 18 years?” Lue says. “He won four champi
onships. So that don’t mean you’re automatically going to win because you have
LeBron James. So I do coach with a chip on my shoulder because, like people say
, ‘Oh, he can’t do it without LeBron. He can’t …'”
Lue：LBJ在聯盟裡，什麼，18 年了？他拿下了四次冠軍，所以這並不意味著你會因為擁有L
BJ而自動獲勝。所以我在執教時肩負重擔，因為就像人們說的那樣，「哦，沒有LBJ，他做
不到。他不能……」
Lue had an opportunity to reunite with James when the Lakers interviewed him for
the coaching job in 2019. But the Lakers offered Lue a three-year deal worth $1
8 million, far below the five-year, $35-million deal he had with the Cavs, and w
anted to dictate Lue's staff. Lue pulled out of negotiations and the Lakers hire
d Frank Vogel.
湖人當時為Lue提供了3年1800萬美元的教練合約，遠低於他在騎士得到的5年3500萬美元教
練合約。並且湖人想要插手他的教練團成員安排。Lue退出了合約談判，湖人轉而聘任了Vog
el。
"The Lakers [saw it] more so as like [I'm just] coming to coach LeBron," Lue sai
d. "No, I'm coming to win. I just didn't think I was treated fairly. And I wasn'
t just going to accept any offer just to get a job.
"I just thought I was better than that."
Lue：湖人更多的是覺得我只是來當LBJ的教練。不，我是來贏的。我只是覺得我受到了不公
平的對待。我不會只是為了得到一份工作而接受任何工作機會。我只是覺得自己比那更好。
"The job I've been able to do with the team now, like, Spo was the same way in M
iami," Lue says of emerging out of James' shadow. "It's also made me want to be
better because not having LeBron, now I got to show people that I know my stuff.
Like I can really coach. And I still got to get a lot better.
"But I just want to prove to people that I can coach."
Lue：我現在能做的就是，就像Spoelstra在熱火所做的一樣。這也讓我想要變得更好，因為
沒有了LBJ，現在我要向人們展示我知道我該如何做事。好比我真的能當教練。我還需要做
得更好。但我只是想向人們證明，我有能力執教。
