MIAMI - Shawne Williams was thanking and cursing teammate Mario Chalmers at the same time..
Chalmers was responsible for selecting the team dinner menu when the Miami Heat played in Kansas City last week. He chose a meal that included several items Williams has been avoiding.
"I had sweet potato pie and cake, a lot of soul food," Williams said. "We've kind of went away from that. I've been on strict diet … No fried foods. Not a lot of breads. Not a lot of sugars."
It was the first time he cheated on the diet that helped him shed 25 pounds since the summer. At 235, this is the lightest Williams has been since college.
"It's helped me a lot mentally," said Williams, a 6-foot-10 forward. "Right now, I still haven't even tapped into it. You're so big sometimes you forget what you can do. The coaches have been doing a great job of trying to remind me what my body can do."
The Heat are hoping the improved conditioning helps Williams squeeze into the rotation. He is expected to add depth in the frontcourt and gives them another three-point shooting big.
"Keep your eye on him," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. "He's an excellent shooter and in much better shape than he's been in before. He just needs to be comfortable with where and when and how he'll get to those shots. He's one of the better shooters we have in our gym."...

In 2016 we gotta go after Dwight (if he opts out), no matter his attitude... he still balls on the court.
