In the PALM BEACH POST, Chris Perkins writes "Pat Riley traveled to Springfield, Mass., with a group of friends and family Tuesday for this week's Hall of Fame induction. Riley's wife, Chris, and Riley's close friend Ed Maull, also a member of the Heat's front office, have apparently planned quite a n itinerary when it comes to parties, receptions and things of that nature. It's like the inauguration,' Riley joked last week. Riley will be officially inducted into the Hall of Fame in a ceremony Friday night, but festivities will go on through the weekend. Riley is being inducted along with Patrick Ewing, Akeem Olajuwon, Adrian Dantley, Dick Vitale, Cathy Rush and Bill Davidson. Some excerpts from Riley last week: Riley will never, ever say he's 100 percent retired from coaching. But as far as coaching in the NBA, he's done. "Unless it had to do internationally, with the Olympics or something like that, I don't think there's any question Ive seen my last practice, my last game." [ VIEW FULL COVERAGE @NBA.com: News ]
