Last year’s NBA finalists, the Miami Heat, are struggling to break among the top 8 teams in the Eastern Conference. After 27 games the team is 10th in the East with 11 wins and 16 losses.
Bam Adebayo was openly disappointed with his team’s performance when it suffered a defeat to the Los Angeles Clippers.
According to him, the Heat did not play defense the way this team is known for. If that was the case, Adebayo thinks Miami would have beaten the Clippers.
“We gotta take pride in defense,” Adebayo said per Anthony Chiang of Miami Herald. “I feel like defense wins games for the most part. I feel like if we would have played Miami Heat culture defense, we would have won.”
