Why is everyone praising Pat Riley?

Dell trades 2 1st round picks for a young all star on a long term deal and he gets shite on for years for it.
Then he trades 1 1st round pick for Asik and everyone shits on him because he's not on a long term deal.
Pat Riley trades 2 1st round picks and half his bench for an almost 30 guard who couldn't make the Allstar team even in his prime and who is only under contract for 3 months and everyone in the media is blowing him.
What gives?

Heat bench has been awful, so why not send most of it packing. Whatever it takes to get a PG they desperately need.

2 Reasons:
1. Miami, if healthy, would be a very scary team. Probably not a title contender, but very good.
2. Timing
You can easily question the health factor, giving Dragic a 5 year max, and unloading an unprotected 2021 1st. But Riley won't be there in 6 years. They're going for broke at the tail end of the career of the best player in franchise history.
They capped themselves out with a proven, if somewhat diminished foundation. The Pels capped themselves out with just the idea of a foundation.
