‘Bam Adebayo Or Bust’ Might Just Be A Reality For The Miami Heat

Jimmy came back for Boston, the Big 4 finally showed up, and it looked like the season was turning around. Butler finished with 25 and Adebayo with 28.

There was proof that Bam and Jimmy could both dominate at the same time while sharing the floor. They even showed it in the masterful home win against the Phoenix Suns.

These two this season, when playing at an elite level, win ball games.

However, when Bam struggles to find his shots or make them, the Miami Heat tend to be in trouble.

When it comes to finding his shot, the Heat have to get him the ball. While he may not drive every time he touches the ball, he’s clearly shown that he wants it in his hands.

After the excruciating loss to the San Antonio Spurs, the Heat are 2-8 when Bam takes less than 15 field goal attempts. It’s not too far off to say then—when Bam gets buckets, the Heat get wins.
