    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Appearing on NBC's The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, the Heat's Pat Riley reiterated on Tuesday that he's uncertain if he will coach next season.

    ''I don't know right now, to be honest with you,'' he told Leno. ''It's been 22 years. and it does take its toll. I started coaching on Dec. 12, and I weighed 219 pounds. I'm like 196 now. So, it's a great diet, by the way. I could write a book about a coaching diet, which is long hours and there's a lot of stress. . . . I'm just going to enjoy the summer . . . have some good, good fun before we make any more decisions.''

    On waiting 18 years between championships, Riley said: ''You get a little bit desperate. . . . For me and my old hip and my wife of 36 years, we can say, it's like what they say about the kind of money you have at the end. I won't say it, but we can move on if we wanted to. It's a wonderful, wonderful experience.''

    Riley, who said he received a ''wonderful telephone message'' from Magic Johnson, said the title was ''sweet'' for longtime veterans, ''especially'' Alonzo Mourning. ''Zo and I are like fused at the hip.''

    Riley later said: ''I just think our team was a team a lot of the media didn't like for one reason for another.''</div>
