Tyronn Lue will be featured on Reebok ‘The Step-Over’ sneaker box

This week isn’t going down as Tyronn Lue expected. Not only are his Cavs down 3-0, but Reebok is also featuring him on the box of a retro Iverson sneaker.

Tyronn Lue is having a rough week. Not only did the Cleveland Cavaliers go down 3-0 to the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday, but Reebok is also celebrating one of Allen Iverson’s most memorable moments of his NBA career – “The Step-Over”—by releasing a retroed version of the Answer 4 sneakers. The box will feature an image of Iverson stepping over Lue.

Back on June 6, 2001, Iverson hit a shot with less than one minute in overtime in Game 1 of the NBA Finals that would end the Los Angeles Lakers undefeated playoff record. But that wasn’t the only amazing thing about this play. Iverson’s defender, Lue, fell over when he tried to contest the shot. After seeing the shot go through the basket, Iverson proceeded to stare at Lue as he slowly stepped over him while heading to the defensive end. This 76ers’ win also showed the NBA world that the Lakers were not quite as dominant as everyone thought.

According to Sole Collector, these sneakers will be released on Friday, June 9, at Philadelphia retailer Lapstone & Hammer in store and online.

As for Game 3 of the 2017 NBA Finals, the Cavs were doing fine in the first three-quarters but hit a wall in the fourth. At the end of the third, the Cavs were up, leading the game 94 to 89. But for whatever reason (most likely fatigue, as Steve Kerr believes), could not keep up with the Warriors’ pace and lost the game 118-113.

Hopefully, the Cavs will win Game 4, which will be on Friday, June. 9, and make Lue’s week better. But a Cavs’ win won’t just make his week better, it will also make all NBA fans’ week better because the NBA Finals will be extended.
