Coach Garnett? Cavaliers coach would like Kevin Garnett on staff

Kevin Garnett never imagined himself coaching. Cleveland Cavaliers coach Tyronn Lue is making him consider it.

Lue said he has discussed a position on his staff with Garnett, the 15-time All-Star who recently retired after 21 seasons in the NBA.

"I talked to him about it. I know his wife is pushing for it a lot," Lue said following practice Thursday. "Brandi is pushing for it, trying to get him to come and coach. He says he's not ready yet. He goes back, 'I might do it,' but he's back and forth. We'll see. But I'd definitely make a spot for him if he wanted to come back and coach."
