August 28th, former Lakers player Tyron Lu participated in the "ClubShayShay" by famous Shannon Sharp and talked about his replacement for Blatt with the Cavaliers.

Sharp: "The natural saying is: 'Oh my God, Tyron Lu has undermined Blatt.' It's like, he's just waiting for the opportunity to take over that position. Have you heard this all the time?"

Tyron Lu: "I've heard this all the time. And that's why I didn't even want to take the job at the beginning - because I know that things would be like this to outsiders. But if people knew what really happened the previous year, they wouldn't say that. As the chief assistant coach, my duty is to do my best to make the head coach's job easier. That's what I did. I would never undermine others for a position. I'm not that person. That's not my character. And to be honest, I believe that if a person does that, retribution will always come to me."
