Cavaliers fire Mexico native Lue

(AP) – The Cleveland Cavaliers have located a scapegoat for their worst start in 23 years.

Head coach Tyronn Lue (TY’-rahn loo) has been fired and replaced by Larry Drew on an interim basis. The move comes a day after the Cavaliers fell to 0-6, their worst start since the 1995-96 Cavs opened 0-7.

The move comes less than 2 1/2 years after Lue led the Cavaliers to the NBA championship. He helped the club put together a string of four straight trips to the finals.

Cleveland was 128-83 under Lue.
