The NBA has fined Heat president Pat Riley $25,000 for violating the league's anti-tampering rules for comments he made about Lakers star LeBron James.
"I would leave the key under the doormat if he would call me and let me know that he's coming," Riley said on the Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz on Friday. "I would do that, but I doubt very much that key…That key is rusted now."
Riley praised James and what he accomplished in South Beach from 2010 to 2014. In his four years there, James won MVP twice and led the Heat to Four Finals appearances and two NBA championships.
