Larry Drew is a proven capable Head coach.
There is no reason he shouldn't expect a coaches salary if he is expected to be head coach of the team for the rest of the season.
Drew got Screwed over in Milwaukee by new owners and in the last 4 year he has seen first hand What kinf od owner he would be working for.
furthermore Lue was given a head coaches salary as an assistant and Cavs at one point had three former head coaches on salary.
it would be ultimately silly for Drew not to restructure his contract as accepting the interim coach position would essentially be ensuring that he ha no job at the end of the season.
Larry Drew is an established coach with quite the pedigree and can get a Job almost anywhere he wants as an assistant.
Drew is also going into a situation where his predecessor was fired for defying the front office who took it upon themselves to have player meetings about play time without the prior Head Coach.
this isn't an interim coach taking over at mid season. this is someone being asked to coach the majority of the season.
Edit. Larry made 1.6 million as the ehad coach for the Hawks where the team went to the playoffs each of his three seasons there and 2 million a season to head coach the bucks.
There is no reason he would take less money to coach the Cavs.
