KFDM COOP Posted August 14, 2007 Report Posted August 14, 2007 Riley commits to Heat for 3 more seasons By Tim Reynolds, The Associated PressMIAMI — Pat Riley isn't ready for another retirement.Riley said Monday he'll be back as coach of the Miami Heat for three more seasons, an announcement that ends months of speculation about his immediate future.The 62-year-old gave up coaching in 2003, then returned two years later and led the team to the 2006 NBA title. But the team was eliminated in the first round of the playoffs last spring and he was non-committal for months about whether he'd remain on the sideline."I don't want to be a one and done guy," Riley said.He said it's simply coincidental that his three-year commitment is the same length of time that Shaquille O'Neal has left on his contract and the amount of time before Dwyane Wade can opt out of his extension with the club.
