Basketball Betting Lines
09/29/2008 -
Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Miami Heat began training camp with a shake
up in the front office, as general manager Randy Pfund resigned in the midst
of a major rebuilding project in South Beach.
Pfund oversaw a NBA-worst club that won just 15 games last season, however he
will be best remembered for putting together the 2006 NBA championship team
and several other successful units over 13 seasons as Miami's general manager.
"Randy Pfund has done a tremendous job for the Heat, helping to build this
team into a champion," said Heat vice president Pat Riley. "His work ethic
and contributions to this organization have been invaluable. I've known Randy
for over 20 years and in addition to our great working relationship he has
been a wonderful friend to both Chris and me and our family."
Under Pfund's leadership, the Heat made 10 postseason berths, including a
franchise-record six consecutive playoff appearances from 1996-2001.
Pfund was part of a group responsible for drafting talents like Dwyane Wade,
Caron Butler and his past season's draft pick Michael Beasley. Some of his
lesser publicized, but just as integral, player moves include Udonis Haslem,
Malik Allen, Rafer Alston, Bruce Bowen and Issac Austin.
