Magic Johnson on Pat Riley stepping down as head coach of the Miami Heat: “I’m happy for Pat (Riley). Once he got into the Hall of Fame, I think that was everything for him. He had (new Heat head coach) Erik (Spoelstra) sitting there (as an assistant coach) waiting to become the head coach, (Riley) tutored him. Erik will be ready, good move for Pat and I think everybody will be happy.” [link]
