i think we all agree that Riley did a great job this year. now the question is this...

would stan van gundy have won the NBA championship with this team ?

IMO, i doubt van gundy would have got by detroit.

Wow, tough question. I would have to say no. This team really rallied behind Riley.

I think so, they would've beaten Detroit last year if Wade and Shaq didn't get injured in that series. Kind of sucks for Stan Van Jeremy, lol.

I think so too but it's tough to guess since one game, or one call in that game, turns this series the other way. Posey was a big addition this year and everyone was fairly healthy.

Once Shaq came over you knew Riley was only giving Stan one shot. Riley looked selfish IMO. Either you feel like coaching or you don't.

How many GMs would hire themselves once a team is primed for title if the players would accept it?
