Pat Riley von Heat says he has no plans to retire after the NBA season, '80 is the new 60 '.

After 30 years at Miami Heat and 80 years around the sun, Pat Riley does not intend to retire soon.

“I just turned 80 and I'm proud of it and 80 are the new 60,” said Riley. “I mean, that's how I look at it. I feel great. I am hellishly competitive.”

Riley and the heat ended a season with 37 to 45, took the 10th place in the Eastern Conference and secured seed no. 8 in the playoffs. Her season ended with a sweep in the first round through the Cleveland Cavaliers.

“[Heat owner Micky Arison] And [Heat chief executive officer Nick Arison] And I met, they were very good to me, “Riley continued.” They said, “Make on, Pat.” I will continue and try to do this thing better. “

The organization aims to rebuild its one-state level of the championship under Riley instructions and to approach the task with a new feeling of urgency after successive playoff outputs in the first round.

“It's a process,” said Riley. “But I will neither deal with a long process, nor is the property.”

“I think we have to make changes. There is no doubt. There must be some changes,” said Riley. “We will probably not attribute it. But the players will not only appear. You have to earn offers, you have to look at the board. You have to try to do something that will benefit your team and two key boys a little if you are your key lousters and I think you are and many other players.”
