Goes into detail of things he observed this season as being apart of a media member. His main point is the disconnect between FO and Lue, but if they had real beef why bring Lue back?
If Lue truly comes back I’m not sure how much this holds weight anymore.

I stopped believing that thread when he said Reggie was actually a dick
Question is, you actually believed that bs? Lol this sub man
Why are we believing Frank who wrote that whole PR speech in Phoenix @ the 4th quarter.
I’m of the belief that if a coach is actively losing games on purpose, they’ll likely never coach again. So it didn’t make sense to me that Ty would sabotage his own career.
Personally didn’t believe the thread, a couple other things were debunked too, like the reporter who supposedly got banned for recording Kawhi and PG at an event still covers the team now
It never did hold weight lol. The idea that Ty was throwing there lineups out there purely from spite was a blatant giveaway
I dont believe anything he says. They’ve made a habit of being very dicey and non-direct. I mean they knew that Kawhi had a torn MCL. I don’t care about games and ship they could have just come clean to the fan base.
But it seems like everything with this group is Cloak and daggers. I don’t know what they think they’re accomplishing with that. Other than disheartening the fan base.
So, no, I don’t believe we can believe anything that is said from Lawrence Frank.
There is exaggeration and opinion in there (like re Reggie) but I don’t think what Frank said means there was no truth in the thread.
Quite possible that there was conflict and Ty was rebelling a bit in the regular season but that Ballmer decided to keep him (whether due to FO being pussies as alleged, or conversely making a sober assessment that there is no one better) and they thrashed it out and are making nice now.
Kinda like the KD situation in Brooklyn. They made nice after he decided to stay but didn’t mean he didn’t demand a trade and then the heads of Nash and the GM before
Saying a professional head coach from any sport is basically throwing games is a huge accusation.
That means..
1. He would be willing to hurt his own career, and if you’ve heard Ty talk about his personal life and where he came from and what he had to go through, I think it’s super unlikely that he’s willing to sacrifice that just to be petty.
2. He’s screwing over all the players in the lockerroom too, including the players that everyone says he favors. The one constant from even Ty’s haters is that he’s a players coach. I don’t think he’s intentionally wasting players’ seasons just for fun.
Ty’s a relatively young coach and coaching isn’t a perfect game. Coaches still learn through their careers and they’ll continue to make mistakes.
The coach of the year from 2019 just got fired. Everyone is saying the COTY from 2018 needs to be fired too. I saw Suns fans say that Monty needs to be fired after losing game 1 in this series.
The fact tht y’all believed that, says a lot
Most of it was BS but there was some truth, but many of the truth aspects were open secret info.
Clippers Content can suck a chode
Some dumb mf’ers on here man
Yes
he seems like a kid who had some truth to share but blew things out of proportion because he wanted fame or he’s immature. I think there’s truth to stuff like “Ty and Frank butt heads” but not that they hated each other. Or that Ty lue made questionable coaching decisions but claiming he was throwing games on purpose is clout chasing. Even GSW has talked about their locker room rifs on championship teams, I dont think competitive guys going at each other’s throats is necessary a bad thing in a hyper competitive environment.
They shouldn’t get rid of him with a depleted team. His 2 best players were out. And everything fell on Russ a player on the MLE to sort it out.
People believing that hot garbage need to put their phone down and chill. This team has thrived on unity and chemistry since day 1. It’s reasons why players like WB and Plumlee want to comeback. It’s why Mann was so eager to play with WB. Our biggest problem is health.
I wouldn’t put much stock into anything Ty or L Frank have to say days after our season came to an end. It’s like a post-game presser, all cliches and canned responses. Everyone is going to be cordial and go home and take a breather and reassess.
My gut says the ClippersContent stuff is around 80% accurate. The lineups this season have been so unexplainable that I’ve been saying all along there must be some extraordinary drama going on behind the scenes. This team has super awkward chemistry.
Dude, how the fuck would a reporter know that Ty Lue was doing line ups to self sabotage. Let’s say he was (he wasn’t) how the fuck would a reporter find that out? It’s fan fiction shot
I’ve gotten media passes for teams before and they look out for shit like this on Twitter. IF he did have that then he’s not getting it next year posting this.
Wow who could have guessed that thread was not accurate, who could have said that over and over while incredulous teenagers on here insisted it was legit
It sounded like fan fiction to start. So yeah it was bs. The guy’s whole tweet history was trolling memes. Suddenly he’s dropping insider knowledge?
