Off nights are one thing. Being a not-so-innocent bystander is another.

That, Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said, is the lesson second-year forward Michael Beasley should take out of his Sunday no-show against the Orlando Magic.

“You have to be an active participant in your involvement,” Spoelstra said before Tuesday’s game against the Golden State Warriors. “For a big, that means you’re working to get open on cuts, offensive rebounds are always great opportunities to be involved, setting pick and rolls at the end of offense, flaring for open jump shots or rolls to the rim, which is part of his game.”

Spoelstra’s point is for Beasley to ask not what the Heat can do for him but what he can do for the Heat.

“All of those things, you can dictate on your own, and that can get you into the flow,” Spoelstra said. “An offensive rebound for a putback, those type of things get your hands on the ball.”

“That’s part of the learning process, of if you don’t feel like you’re engaged into the game, you make yourself engaged into the game and you get involved.”
