A: Look, helping a franchise win two NBA championships means you never have to say you're sorry. In the NBA, every team takes something from other teams, whether it's play sets, defensive schemes or even approaches to coaching, practice and organizational structure. Several teams, including the Thunder and Magic have attempted to work with the model established by the Spurs. And with Stan Van Gundy and now David Fizdale having moved on, the Heat's culture, to a degree, already has found a home in other venues. So many players who have moved on from the Heat have spoken about the profound impact the Heat culture has had on their careers going forward. As Oscar Wilde said, "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery." That James, as suggested by that ESPN story, grew and learned from his time with the Heat, should provide all the satisfaction that is needed for Riley. And those two championship banners hanging at AmericanAirlines Arena because of James' contribution should allow South Florida fans to move on to the franchise's next chapter . . . not that most won't be rooting for the Warriors over these next two weeks.
