The Miami Heat HAVE to Figure This Out Before Opening Night
Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bam Adebayo work together? What are the biggest questions the Miami Heat must answer before they can become championship contenders? Wes Goldberg and David Ramil identify the three biggest issues facing the Heat entering the season, starting with how Erik Spoelstra can maximize the partnership between Antetokounmpo and Adebayo. Can two non-traditional offensive stars coexist without sacrificing spacing? Then they examine Miami's late-game offense and debate whether concerns about crunch-time scoring are overblown given Giannis' track record as a closer.

Plus, why perimeter shooting and frontcourt depth could determine whether this roster reaches its championship ceiling. Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
