Well, the series makes Riley look like a disheveled former professional jock with no future..
It makes you believe that he slipped through the cracks towards success as a top notch future head coach and general manager. If somebody was watching this program and had no idea who Pat Riley was, they would think, "total loser".
While on the subject of Pat Riley, I did not know his father had a cup of coffee with the Philadelphia Phillies in Major League Baseball!!!
If my memory serves me correct (from the show) his father had four career at bats with one base hit.
