Pat Riley on Hassan Whiteside: 'He wasn't ready for the playoffs'

When asked about Hassan Whiteside during the exit interviews, Pat Riley didn't have nice words for his big man. Here's an extract:

"By the time we got to the playoffs, I don't think he was ready," Riley said Monday, six days after the Heat were eliminated by the Sixers in five games. "He wasn't in great shape. He wasn't fully conditioned for a playoff battle mentally. He and we got our heads handed to us."

"I'm not going to give him any kind of excuse," Riley said. "But (Whiteside's) season started with an injury, and all year long there was a dilemma of some kind."
