"The Miami Heat are entering a tricky phase of their competitive timeline in which they're tasked with remaining relevant, even good, while they wait and hope for a conventional superstar to shake loose. Bam Adebayo gets that there is no traditional safety net in place, and wants the offense to operate accordingly. "We're getting up and down, playing faster," he said, per the Miami Herald's Anthony Chiang. "It's a no-hold style of offense. We're pushing the pace, moving the ball, and keeping everyone involved.""
"The Heat are indeed playing at a dizzying pace so far. They are running not only after grabbing rebounds, but also following opponent makes. Their transition frequency is waaaay up in the preseason relative to the past few regular seasons, and the absence of Tyler Herro has forced them to explore a more egalitarian dynamic in which they aren't overly reliant on any one player-including Adebayo."
The Miami Heat are shifting toward a faster, transition-focused offense that pushes the pace after both rebounds and opponent makes. Bam Adebayo advocates a no-hold approach that emphasizes ball movement and keeping everyone involved rather than relying on a single creator. Tyler Herro's absence has accelerated a more egalitarian dynamic and led to role adjustments, such as Norman Powell serving as a perimeter play-finisher under Erik Spoelstra. Transition frequency has risen markedly in the preseason, and increased running aims to generate more rim attempts and offset the lack of a traditional defensive-breaking scorer, despite current statistical offensive struggles.
