Consistently Aggressive Bam Adebayo Means Miami Heat NBA Finals Runs
He is destroying opposing teams’ centers over the past couple of games.
Going for 32 points, eight rebounds, and five assists against the Utah Jazz, who play big and at times, even with three seven-footers on the floor, Adebayo also couldn’t be stopped against the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday night.
And he’s doing it with versatility, getting to floaters, pick-and-pop jumpers, and attacking the paint for rim-crushing slams or only to use that fear to stop on a dime to shoot a jumper.
Los Angeles even put Paul George on Adebayo and he still got buckets. And even when he didn’t get the ball late in the fourth quarter, he was still making an impact by attacking the glass.
His two offensive rebounds led to two putback dunks. The point is that even when he didn’t get the ball—he was still being aggressive.
And that’s what it’s always been about for him, consistent aggression and assertiveness in whatever he was doing. And that’s how Bam Adebayo has finally found his next level.
