Magic Johnson was easily the best player Riley has coached.
2. Shaq for now but Wade is closing pretty fast
3. Anthony Mason (heheh just kidding)

I have to agree with you. Earvin "Magic" Johnson was a special player and lead Riley to 4 NBA championships (Riley was not yet the head coach for Magic's first championship against the Philadelphia 76ers). If Wade (who is playing out of his mind right now) can approximate the championships that Magic has won, I see no reason why Wade shouldn't be Riley's best player.
However, that title goes to Magic Johnson right now...and maybe Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
Hope this helps.

MJ...that is Magic Johnson. Not even close to Ewing, Wade, Shaq, Kareem, or Worthy.
