Tyronn Lue

Feeling better and healthier nearly two months after taking a medical leave of absence, Cleveland Cavaliers coach Tyronn Lue said he has been getting treatment for anxiety.

Lue had been having chest pains and occasionally coughing up blood when he left the team in March. He was unable to coach the second half in several games before stepping away to deal with the issue. A diet change and medication have helped him.

"I'm glad it wasn't anything serious," Lue told ESPN's Rachel Nichols in an exclusive interview. "Just anxiety, and the medication I'm on is great. No more chest pains, so everything's been great."

Lue had a battery of tests in the months leading up to his decision in mid-March to step away, and it was determined his symptoms were, in part, the result of anxiety. During the two weeks Lue was away, he was able to get some rest, make lifestyle changes and begin a medication routine that helped reduce some of the stress.

"I think for the first time in my career, 20 years, I had a chance to focus on me. It wasn't as bad as people thought it was. But I did have some chest pains for the last couple of years. And I was just trying to be able to get through it not knowing what was wrong with me," Lue told Nichols.

"So the two weeks I took off, just finally had a chance to focus on myself and change my diet. Hired a chef. Stopped drinking as many Shirley Temples. And stopped with the sweets and got back to taking care of myself. Now I feel great."

I'd have anxiety too if I knew my entire career is based on one great player that could change his mind in an instant if he wants you to be around.  Then, you have to turn around and convince the rest of the players you are actually in charge.

yeah lets ignore the NBA Title he won and say that he's overrated.

Amazing to me how many people are so quick to discredit Lue's accomplishments, mostly because ironically they don't want the NBA

Should we similarly pay a lot of attention to the National Championship that Gene Chizik won and say that he's an elite head football coach? :lol:

» Tyronn Lue, congratulations, you won the lottery.

You had $15 million left on your Cleveland Cavaliers contract. You get rich and you don’t have to coach that dreadful Cavs roster. Lue will get another head coaching job, next summer at the latest. And his new team will surely be in better position to contend than the Cavs.

(Hopefully, Korver will soon be liberated from Cleveland, too).

Would Lue be interested in coaching college basketball? Based on what I know, no. Lue is an NBA guy through and through.
