Palm Beach Post -
Pat Riley, the president and coach of the Miami Heat , said Monday that the
club's next coach "will come from within the organization."
Riley, who said he has no timetable to resign as coach, spoke in response to
a Sun-Sentinel commentary that suggested Memphis Grizzlies coach Mike
Fratello could be in line for the Heat job.
"I love Mike to death," Riley said. "He's been a good friend of mine for
years and years and years and we talk a lot about it, but I just want to put
it to rest that if in fact there's ever a change here with me making a
decision, it will come from within the organization.
"So the next coach of the Miami Heat is going to come from the guts of this
team.
