MUST READ: 2021 Playoffs: Heat @ Bucks Game 1

In game 1, Miami's offense struggled badly late in the 4th quarter and in OT primarily because of their 2 best players. It goes beyond their field goal percentages being downright awful. Jimmy has this annoying habit of driving to the rim then picking up his dribble without making a quick decision after which makes it so much harder to find an open teammate or create just enough room for a shot. This wasted too much time which led to bad shots and even worse, turnovers. I don't know why someone who's so good at drawing fouls by being physical when attacking the rack and is a good free throw shooter gets nervous this often. Bam has improved a lot this season at hitting open mid-range jumpers and taking defenders off the dribble for mid-range jumpers as well as shots at the cup. His 41 point performance in Brooklyn and game winner vs the Nets in Miami are great examples. However, it's criminal how often he doesn't do anything with the rock besides look for dribble handoffs when no one is within 10 feet of him (that's why he's not a true all-star level player; he's somewhat overrated because many people think he is). When he is this scared to even look at the rim, that 10 feet of space goes to waste far too much. I understand how good of a passer he is but it seems pointless to have him on the perimeter so much if he doesn't want to use any perimeter skills. Bam's indecisiveness also slowed down the Heat's offense. I didn't think Miami would win this series from the start, but they still have a legit chance of playing in the 2nd round assuming their 2 best players play with way more confidence.
