Just last week I posted an article making an argument for the Heat and head coach Erik Spoelstra to afford more playing time for starting forward Derrick Williams. At the time of the article, Williams had started the previous three games, but had not played greater than 18 minutes in each of these games. This comes on top of the first seven games of the season, where Williams played a grand total of three minutes.
The past two games have seen the Heat pull off an impressive road victory in Washington. However, they followed this up with a disappointing loss in Philadelphia.
