恐慌大師表示:我為濕婆感到哭哭
ORLANDO, Fla. -- The idea that Miami Heat president Pat Riley would float the
possibility of returning as the team's coach isn't sitting well with the man
who used to work for him.
Magic coach Stan Van Gundy said Tuesday that he wished Riley would have kept
the comments private because of the impact it might have on Heat coach Erik
Spoelstra.
Spoelstra was an assistant under Van Gundy in Miami, and the two remain
friends.
"I feel bad for Erik," Van Gundy said. "I know what will happen now. That's
an offseason of speculation on whether or not Pat's going to coach. I think
that makes it tough on [Spoelstra], so I feel bad for him."
Van Gundy should know.
He dealt with similar speculation in 2005 after Riley said earlier that
summer he wanted to "take a little bit more of an active participation" with
the Heat. That began a firestorm of conjecture that Riley would come back to
the bench and replace Van Gundy as coach.
Van Gundy later resigned as Heat coach 21 games into the 2005-06 season,
citing personal and family reasons. Riley took over, leading the Heat to
their first championship.
With the Heat hoping to re-sign Dwyane Wade and lure other All-Stars this
summer, Riley wouldn't completely rule out a return to the sideline in his
end-of-season news conference Monday. Miami will have enough salary-cap space
to not only re-sign Wade but also potentially acquire two star-level players
to join him.
"If I were to leave the team and go somewhere else in a year or two from now,
if I got tired of reading books on the beach, excuse me, the Kindle, I might
want to coach again," Riley said. "I don't know. But don't say that I won't
ever do that or that I can't do it. If I say yes or no, then you get
condemned for it.
"I'll do whatever is in the best interest of building the team here. Period,"
Riley added. "Whatever it takes, OK? I'll let you fill in the blanks. ... If
some free agent were to say 'I will come here but you must do this,' well,
hell, if that happens that day, then I might have to give it some thought."
What seemed to bother Van Gundy was the fodder that could be levied about
Spoelstra's status.
Spoelstra worked his way up from the video room on Riley's staff to an
assistant coach under Van Gundy, ultimately becoming Riley's hand-picked
replacement. Spoelstra has a 90-74 record, guiding Miami to the playoffs
twice, though not past the first round.
Van Gundy and Spoelstra are still close. Even though they coach opposing
Southeast Division teams, the pair often talk by phone or send text messages
to each other.
"I didn't see it coming," Van Gundy said of Riley's comments. "I don't get
surprised by too much, either."
NBA commissioner David Stern also weighed in on Riley.
Stern was in Orlando to announce that the NBA All-Star Game would be heading
to the city in 2012. The commissioner doesn't think Riley is coming back to
coaching anytime soon -- but maybe one day.
"He looks great. I had a chance to visit with him in Miami last week. He
looks calm. He looks rested. He actually looks happy. You're suggesting he
wants to give that up?" Stern said, chuckling. "Well, I guess all I would say
is that he's an NBA lifer, and so it's interesting to contemplate."
