Oh, we should be thankful for Spo. I remember how much we used to trash him in seasons past but dude reallly is one of the best coaches around. He's not perfect but he's also Heat toughness personified.
When you look at how Lebron treats his other coaches around the league and how Spo kept his cool or even how he's brought out the best in Whiteside.
I remember when we used to bytch and moan at how Spo handled Whiteside's minutes but you can see Whiteside's growth that he really was grooming him into being an anchor. It must have been hard to pull Hassan out the game and manage his temper while reaching him but he did it.
Players got so much respect for Spo, it's crazy. Spo is another example of trusting in Riley. Dude rode for Spo even when people were constantly doubting his ability to lead and be successful.
