What? We're full of great ideas here in Miami, like retiring Jordan's Jersey in our arenathat press conference was just a horrible idea, in retrospect, it was embarrassing
im sure it made Bron's decision just a lil easier

- Thread starter Kaypain
- Start date

That's just how Riley is. If anyone has read "Showtime", even those mid to late 80s teams were fed up with Riley. Especially when he made the back to back guarantee and went as far as to try to get the phrase trademarked

And Lebron is a guy who considers himself bigger than basketball now...so obviously that rubbed him the wrong way...And Lebron has always had Cleveland in his back pocket...he will go back home and own that entire state...so yeah...if you looking to get a bigger piece than what someone will give you...then you should bounce...
just watched the conference...half of it at least and theres something wrong with yall. What did he say that was wrong?that press conference was just a horrible idea, in retrospect, it was embarrassing

Not everybody can have a run like the Bulls did, winning championships isnt easy

I still find it funny that people think Pat Riley had anything to do with bringing LeBron and Bosh to Miami in the first place, the credit's supposed to go to Dwyane Wade for that one.

Riley called out Wade, Bosh, Spolestra, Chalmers and even heat fans. no one else took offense to his constructive criticism. if Lebron did, he's a bigger bytch than I thought.
whats funny is some of yall bashing Riley's press conference are the same ones who have managed to excuse dan gilbert's scathing letter as an "understandable emotional, in-the-moment rant by a scorned lover"
so glad I don't have to deal with the hypocritcal nature surrounding everything about Lebron anymore. i truly appreciate the 4 Finals trips and 2 rings, but he can take the circus back with him to Ohio.

Way to call 'em out on that. Time to grab a new rifle to shoot with so to speak. Let's see what Riley's likely final classic will look like.

damn drink that riley coolaid man gets far too much credit for 3 friends coming to play together , was Riley at the Olympics orchestrating the plan for the big 3? Riley felt himself alittle much , you think Ray Allen came for a paycut to play with bron and them or cause Riley :insertshhhgif: bron is a big part of that teams success but go ahead be ungrateful He's the best player in the world
they trying to save money on luxury tax when bron wants certain players to stay ? That's just stupid .

If Lebron was offended by that, then dude is mad sensitive. Riles was completely right. In life in general. You don't always run when shyt gets difficult

appreciate the 4 years and everything you did
paying the luxury tax on a player who is more injury prone than dwyane wade is just bad business. you don't need an MBA from harvard business school to know that.
if the heat had known mike miller would suddenly transform into cal ripken jr. there's a good chance they'd bite the bullet and pay it.

Jack McKinney would have had those titles if he wouldn't have had health issues. Riles would've still been sitting next to Chick
He's got 9 titles
