Pat Riley is Pissed! 

Post#1 » by GameTime_3 » Thu Mar 6, 2008 3:14 am

Pat riley after tonights game showed signs of blowing this thing up.He first said "that he felt like writing a check to all season ticket holders" lol. Then he said "some players just dont care" and went on to say"I may just go out and sign abunch of young players to finish out the season" .He said he has to figure out who just does not care about this team and they need to go. I really think pat riley is going to step down. Also Jason williams maybe gone in the coming weeks. What do you see the heat doing? I see the heat Waiving Jason williams!

Then today is a victory in that he will finally play our young player. All it took was the worst team record in franchise history. To bad Dorell got hurt less than a week ago at least Cook will get mins.

I think Riley is as much as fault as anyone, he should look in the mirror first.

Anyhow, the Heat organization seem to lose player after player to injury, we should look into stuff, in trying to fix that part for the future. Copy a Detroit or Phoenix Suns, or other teams that don't seem to suffer this plague, that the Heat seem to suffer every year.

There is no question alot of this is Pats fault. Pat the gm failed Pat the coach. Pat the coach refused to play any young player.

I just hope for next season he steps down so we have a coach that can get the best of this young team. Last thing we need is Pat messing around with the confidence of our lottery pick.

he can't waive Williams or Ricky, he needs them potentially for a S&T deal

just bench them already, jesus christ, we have 10 goddamn wins who cares what happens. Play Banks & CQ, cut Smush, sign some D League type, recall Anthony & DQ, cut Wade's minutes to 25 a game. Let Spoelstra run some games while Pat sits on the bench, like what Nellie did for Avery Johnson.

You know who's pissed next?

We only have Cook that is young and worth playing.

Barron is not gonna gain anything he is just a career 7th-9th man at best.

Wright is out for season.

Johnson fouled out today, he's another 7th-9th man at best.

Quinn sucks too he is a 3rd string PG on a decent team.

I just wanna see a lot of Cook and maybe some new young guys from anywhere. Anything is better than the effort today.

S&T? For Jason williams. Smart bussiness is to show the fans that you can and having Williams is the exact reason why people are leaving. I had a friend today leave the game at the end of the half.I called and asked him why did he? his response"Why should i care about this team and when the players don't care". This is being said all over the arena. A smart business man would see that. I know most of us on this board dont think about that but we are the Few and we arent the ones who fill up more then half of the AAA. Waive Jason williams and take a stand Riley.

Earl Barron-3rd String at best

Alexander Johnson-Will never start but atleast he gives you energy.The guy has the potential to be a 10-15 minute a night guy off the bench

Mark Blount- Please trade him! We miss you Zo

Jason willaims-He is the one i point the finger at most,He just does not care! He is the one that i think we should boo every time he touches the ball.

Ricky Davis-Either Ricky shows riley that he is willing to play defense or he is out of here! i know alot of people think ricky is to blame but i still see him trying.

Chris quinn- Sorry but he is not the answer! nice 3rd stringer

DQ-DQ please come back and show us alittle bit of the magic you had earlier in the year!

Dorrel-Of all the bad things people said about you ill say this"Atleast you play defense and have heart"

Wade-Go get healthy and Kill smush

Shaq-I dont know if your still working for the police down here but when
smush comes up died dont go looking for wade!

Haslem- Keeper

Matrix-Please Opt out!! I love you but your not the aswer! now if your willing to take 10 mil a year, Welcome back

Marcus Banks-Thanks for Showing everyone here how bad Jason williams is! You couldnt get off the bench in PHX but yet you look like a Allstar compared to Williams,Keep up the hard work and hopefully we have our Backup PG of the future with you

Another yo yo thread.

Riley is still on of the game's best.

Comments like get rid of blount are crass. There is no-one to replace him, at the moment he's as good as it gets at C. Do you want Barron to have more minutes there, Johnson perhaps?

Accept Zo is finished, he was great now he's finished.

The DQ hype is tedious. The lad has had a lot of time on the team, he started well and then his shot went to hell. He was playing worse than Ricky at times, and he couldn't defend. He needs to learn and get his confidence back. Some of you speak about him like a messiah.

JWill should be benched, agreed. Banks and Quinn should get on. Don't know why you giveQuinn should a hard time. He does as he's asked everytime. Feed the ball to DW, don't TO, shoot a few 3. I like him.

Support your team.

At this point, only Banks and Cook are worth playing. Barron, Quinn, and Johnson are 8th to 12th men who have been forced to play big minutes.

Give Riley his props for manning up to his mistakes.

Its hard to give props to Pat for manning up to his mistakes since he was the main cause of them. Pat the GM failed. Pat the coach is stubborn as a mule and stuck with his "vets" (these are the player he selected) instead of giving our young players mins.

Cook goes from having lights out games to getting no mins at all. Dorell has had so many mind games played on him his confidence is shot. Pat is a great person to keep in this organization but not in a coaching capacity considering were rebuilding and need someone to bring out the best in our young players.

Look at how bad Pat coached/inspired Smush compared to how Smush performed for Phil. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
