Pat Riley Hints Miami Heat Aren't Making Any Major Changes This Offseason
The Miami Heat were three wins from winning an NBA championship last season.
To team president Pat Riley, that means there is no need to make too many changes. On Tuesday, Riley met with the media and addressed the offseason.
"We’re not going to take a wrecking ball to this thing,” Riley said. "... It’s just onward with this team.”
That should shoot down the report about the Portland Trail Blazers offering the No. 3 pick in Thursday's draft in exchange for Heat center Bam Adebayo. The Heat were also linked with Damian Lillard, Kyrie Irving and Bradley Beal but it seems less likely for those moves to happen.
If anything, it seemed Riley is fine with attempting this again with the same team with a few minor tweaks.
“Subtle moves will be enough, if they’re the right movies," Riley said. "I’m not just swinging for the fences right now, because it could be reckless.”
