Pat Riley, otherwise known as the slick-shoed former coach of the LA Lakers during their ’80s dynasty (and apparent Miami Vice enthusiast) and recent Miami Heat head coach, has retired. BUT, the ever-vigilent Riley is already the team president, so he’ll move right into place making deals and raking in the dough. He has named 37 year old Erik Spoelstra as his replacement, a former video room assistant.

Pat Riley has enjoyed a string of successful teams and seasons, but has not looked nearly as slick as when Kurt Rambis, James Worthy and Magic squeaked up the floor.  Ah, glory days…
