Pat Riley’s biggest basketball regret involves Patrick Ewing

Heat president Pat Riley has experienced countless glorious moments in a Hall-of-Fame NBA career and may not be done in Miami as he tries for a 10th championship ring. But the former Lakers and Knicks head coach counts his inability to guide Patrick Ewing to his only NBA championship as possibly his biggest failure.

In MSG Network’s new special dealing with the 1994 playoffs in which the Knicks advanced to The Finals, Riley says on the program, in excerpts obtained by The Post:

“Patrick was a guy that gave everything he could give to that city to try to win a championship,” Riley said.
