The Miami Heat outlasted the Chicago Bulls in a game that was too close for comfort. Do the Heat need more from Bam Adebayo in the next two games against the Bulls, and is Kel'el Ware unfairly buried on the bench? Wes Goldberg and David Ramil break down the Heat’s 116-113 victory, spotlighting Jaime Jaquez Jr.’s versatile performance off the bench and Norm Powell’s clutch free throws despite late-game turnovers. The debate sparks over Ware’s limited minutes, Erik Spoelstra’s decision-making, and looming trade rumors involving Giannis Antetokounmpo.
