Can the Miami Heat overcome their early-season challenges? With Jimmy Butler's passive performance and Bam Adebayo's offensive struggles, the Heat's start has been less than stellar. Butler managed only 15 points, appearing fatigued, while Adebayo's lack of aggression raises concerns. In contrast, Tyler Herro shines with a 34-point game, showcasing his adaptation to the new offensive system. The Heat's persistent third-quarter issues, often losing leads when Butler sits, add to the team's woes. Wes Goldberg and David Ramil also discuss the impact of the Heat's offseason inactivity compared to teams like the Knicks.Become a Locked On Heat Insider on Subtext! https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonheat  Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!GametimeDownload the Gametime app, create an account, and use code LOCKEDON for $20 off your first purchase.
