    Jason Williams emerged from the locker room after Monday's practice with a compact disc and a homework assignment. The disc contained plays from recent games, when Williams either passed up open shots or did not attack the basket in pick-and-roll offensive sets.</p>

    </p>

    It was supposed to be visual evidence of what coach Pat Riley has been saying all season: Williams needs to be aggressive for the Heat's offense to become more productive.</p>

    </p>

    ''Maybe I just don't see the opportunities,'' Williams said. ``I've got [the film] right here in my hand. So I have to see what's going on.'' -- <font color="#000000">Miami Herald</font></p>

    [*]Although offensive wizard Dwyane Wade has been back for six games, his presence -- which draws the constant attention of defenders -- hasn't helped guard Jason Williams and forward Udonis Haslem end their scoring slumps.

    </p>

    Wade, the All-Star guard who is averaging 23 points per game, gets both players open shots by penetrating and drawing double-teams. But neither is hitting them. -- <font color="#000000">Palm Beach Post</font></p>

    </p>

    [*]In Riley's view, shooting guard Dwyane Wade already is doing enough heavy lifting. What he wants is more from point guard Jason Williams.

    </p>

    "We need production out of that spot," Riley said Monday as he looked ahead to tonight's home game against Charlotte. "We just need more." -- <font color="#000000">South Florida Sun-Sentinel</font></p></div>
