Apparently Mr. Threepeat wants to rebuild the Heat from the front office, not from behind the bench. Stan Van Gundy (Jeff's bro) is taking over.
Seems kind of unusual to do this just before the season begins, but hey, I don't have a bunch of NBA championship rings.

I was SHOCKED when I heard the news... Riley seemed so upbeat about this year, getting Lamar Odom (in large part because of Riley) and Dwyane Wade, plus we might have had a shot at the playoffs (it's the Eastern Conference, remember?). But... a week before the season begins? Wow...
Yo, it's me, it's me, it's (points to self) P-A-B!
Stan Van Gundy could be the greatest name in the NBA. The only problem is when I hear it I don't know what I picture first...80s rocker, infomercial guy, or late-night local screaming sports anchor. It sure isn't NBA head coach.
