Perspective
Perspective is a really dynamic term, and even more so in the NBA where it seems as though it gets lost among the players on a regular basis. Thankfully that doesn’t seem to be the issue with most of the current Miami Heat roster. That also isn’t the specific definition of perspective we are describing here.
When thinking about this particular type of perspective, it is the perspective to take when attacking defenders on the court. Not only is Antetokounmpo a very skilled, aggressive, and uber-athletic basketball player, but he is extremely efficient as well. Some will point to the fact that he shoots most of his shots in the painted area of the court, but the real reason is he just knows that much about how he wants to attack the opposing defender.
This perspective on attacking defenses is the last component of the three that Bam Adebayo should most want to take from Giannis while working out together this off-season. Perspective is basically an all-encompassing way of saying when, where, and how to attack the defense off the dribble or in general.
While Antetokounmpo could just out will you to his particular spots on the floor, he saves his body and plays more efficiently by methodically choosing the manner in which he chooses to attack the defense. If you watch him play, every time he makes a move, it is deliberately done to achieve a specific goal on the way to the hoop.
While Bam could stand to take as much as possible away from a great player such as Giannis Antetokounmpo, these are three of the more critical aspects for his development right now. With uncertainty ahead, and with the departure of Dwyane Wade to retirement, a much improved Bam for next season would be huge. If he were able to improve drastically in all three of the above listed areas, Bam would not only come back to the Miami Heat better, but ready to dominate opponents in a Giannis like manner.
