The official spoke on condition of anonymity because Riley has not formally announced his plans. Riley is expected to announce his return at a news conference Wednesday morning in Miami. His first game back would be Feb. 21 at Houston. Riley's decision was first reported by WTVJ television and on the South Florida Sun-Sentinel's Web site.</div> Link
and let the wins keep on coming baby! here we go, we're back together as a full team (with the exception of j-will, but he might be bcak soon, i have no idea) as soon as hes back.
I didnt follow this closely, because i didnt watch much bball the last month or two, so why did he leave in the first place? All i knew was he left, but not what reason.
he said he wanted to come back 2 weeks after the surgery (he had hip and knee surgery, notorious), but his doctors wouldnt let him. they said 4-6 weeks. he picked 4 b/c he wanted to come back as soon as he could. i can't understand why you're all mad at a guy for returning as soon as he could. i guarantee that if he wasnt about to return because he couldnt due to health reasons, then the heat began to lose again, and THEN he came back, you'd all be pissed off at him for returning to late or him trying to act like some hero coming in to save the day.
Yeah he definately wasn't healthy but maybe Riley somehow planned his return. We all know his ways of motivating his players maybe this was one of them.
