    Pat Riley

    He was on the 1966 Kentucky team that lost to Texas Western all black lineup and changed the game.

    2020 executive on Heat who lose to all guard lineup in championship.

    I remember Riley as a player. He managed to rise up the food chain.

    Most over-rated coach ever, right next to Auerbach.

    Duncan Robinson. Guy might of never made the league if not for Riley and will make 9 figures playing in NBA. Without him and Nunn both undrafted they might not even be in the playoffs. Jones was a good move too I watched him play in the G league in Iowa last year. Guy is not a good shooter but has drained 3s in the playoffs and always great on d. Historically he had Bruce Bowen and Haslem both undrafted who were starters on title teams, though Bowen with the Spurs.

    Riley is the 2nd coming of Christ when it comes to his status in the league.

    Granted, he's made some good moves but if you take away Magic's Lakers, when they couldn't lose, Riley has one or two titles in 20-25 years as a coach/GM; decent but nowhere near HOF caliber.

    More likely he loses the championship that started to give blacks importance and then loses the one where they are more important than anything else. That would be called coming full circle.

    Yeah, so right. Really sucked as Pres and GM as well. It is like everything was handed to him on a silver platter.
    You are one sharp mofo, Drunkie.
