A new Bam Adebayo to bring hope back to Miami Heat
The center acknowledges having talked with Spoelstra about a drastic change in his game and reveals the reasons for it.
The aspirations of Miami Heat in a season where their project could disintegrate due to Jimmy Butler's departure are a great mystery. However, the Florida team wants to compete no matter what happens, and Erik Spoelstra has requested that Bam Adebayo make a substantial change in his game.
There is no doubt about Bam Adebayo's magnificent basketball skills, but there are doubts about his complex role as a center in an NBA with players taller and stronger than him in that position. He has often been left alone in the paint, with a team inclined to play a lot of isolations and shoot from the outside. The current lineup encourages Erik Spoelstra to make an important decision; to play with everyone spread out and shoot more triples to speed up the game.
The lack of traditional centers, beyond Thomas Bryant, and the signing of someone like Kevin Love, lead to a desire to see progression in Bam Adebayo's shooting ability, allowing him to continue contributing offensively without the wear of constantly occupying the paint, as well as creating more space for the perimeter players to drive in. The goal is for him to attempt at least 100 three-pointers this season, based on the confidence he has received from Erik Spoelstra.
