Hayward is the key to winning Heat/etc, but he must come off the bench

He's played three games now.. Rust is most likely gone, rhythm and fitness are nearly all back..I think he will be the MVP of game 6.

That would be nice. It’s definitely been nice having him play a solid 30 minutes each game as he’s a huge improvement over Semi, but outside of game 3 he hasn’t had much of an impact. I’d love to see him as more of a point forward running the offense in situations where Miami goes into the zone as I think he would be best to counter them having their bigs at the front of the zone. Also, he’s the perfect counter to that double team / trapping thing they sometimes do near half court (though I haven’t seen them do that recently).

Hayward isn't really being used much right now. Team needs to start involving him much more in the offense if we want him to resemble the player he was throughout the season while healthy. He is at his best with the ball in his hands so he can't just be put in a corner to stretch the floor like he was for most of this past game.
