PAT RILEY: SUPERSTARS ARE NEEDED FOR TITLE TEAMS

Miami Heat president Pat Riley didn’t mince his words during a Q&A session with Bleacher Report.

In that session, targeted about the post-LeBron era on South Beach, Riley admitted that you needed to have superstars in order to be a championship-winning side

Via Bleacher Report:

He called these “very coherent thoughts and decisions that you make about getting stars. You’ve got to get great players. I’ve been around it my whole life.” 

[…]

“It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to be able to see what it takes,” Riley said, running through his experience playing with West and Baylor and Wilt Chamberlain, coaching against Larry Bird and Kevin McHale and Robert Parish, and so on. “If you can get three of those kinds of players and fill it out with some other good guys, then you might be ahead of the curve…. So there are a lot of ways to skin a cat.

“For me, it’s not through the draft, because lottery picks are living a life of misery. That season is miserable. And if you do three or four years in a row to get lottery picks, then I’m in an insane asylum. And the fans will be, too. So who wants to do that?”
