The fans aren’t the only ones taking notice anymore though. They are also not the only ones speaking out.
Speaking to Anthony Chiang, of the Miami Herald, here is what former Miami Heat champion, legend, and NBA All-Timer, Chris Bosh, had to say on the topic. The interview was of the Q & A variety, so the question, per Chiang, will be listed before Bosh’s answer.
"Q: What’s the next step for Bam Adebayo? Chris: “Shoot it. That’s it. Shoot it. Shoot it. That’s all he needs to do is shoot it, I’m telling you. I did it for 13 years in the league, man, and it didn’t steer me wrong. Shoot it."
"He has the playmaking ability, he is unselfish. It’s wonderful that he’s a team player. But for him to get to where he wants to go, he’s going to have to shoot the ball. I think he’s more than capable. Once he proves that he’s a threat out there, Brook Lopez and DeAndre Jordan and all those bigs, they can’t just be in the middle of the paint playing traffic cop. He needs to come back and he needs to shoot it until they guard him. That would be my recommendation.”"
It’s really that simple. It’s not just about Bam though, as CB alluded to.
