What a blessing
Right now, one of the keys is outside of Robinson's minutes, Miami doesn't have any really bad negative defenders to give up easy shots and let the lesser players gain confidence. Just having one weak defender can give the other team an easy basket while making the 4 other defenders somewhat pissed that they're working hard just see someone give up an easy bucket. Outside of the points given up, it's also demoralizing for your team.
I hope Robinson figures out that maybe he should be between R.Williams and the passer while in the zone so he doesn't get injured when Willaims dunks it on his head(being behind him that low in the post is just asking for injury). His rotations are just bad and at 29 years old you'd think he'd be better at this.
The two FG Williams made on Robinson...
1. Brogdon attacking and just stood behind Williams, even puts his hands on his back before the ball makes it there. For instance, had that been Butler he'd understand you're screwed if he gets the ball there so you go on the left side and try to knock or steal the pass coming in because no matter what, that ball making it to Williams will be a score. Now if Brogdon can get the pass over into the corner Martin and the rest of the team rotates. This is by far why I dislike Robinson on this team, at this point he should just know what to do.
You can see that play
here.
2. This isn't nearly as bad but it's Robinson trying to give the and 1 for no other reason than act like he was playing defense. It's a good play by Boston, Robinson can't guard Williams slipping to the basket with Brown out at the 3pt line, but for some reason when Williams gets the ball under the basket for an easy lay in, Robinson puts 2 hands into his back which he does a ton and gets a lot of and 1s called on him.

If he could just go where he's suppose to on defense and quit trying to act like he was playing defense (trying to get into the play where he has to use his hands to in their back to slow down) when he missed his assignment he'd help out the team much more, this is probably the reason certain starter(s) asked for him to be replaced with Strus in the starting lineup last year.
