MIAMI — Observations and other notes of interest from Saturday night’s 121-111 victory over the Phoenix Suns: – It took a while. – And then the reality kicked in with Bam Adebayo. – This wasn’t Jusuf Nurkic and his annoying bulk at center for the Suns. – This was Mason Plumlee. – Followed by Oso Ighodaro. – In other words, a night for no excuses. – So, as he would be expected to be in such a matchup, and would need to be in such a matchup, Adebayo made himself the game’s definitive man in the middle. – If not the alley-oop finish, then it was the cuff dunk off a Jimmy Butler miss. – But aggressive. – No need to mess around with the rest of the boxscore in this one. – Just dominate. – Which Adebayo did in Saturday night’s third quarter. – And which has to continue for the Heat to escape this cycle of mediocrity. – With the size of Cleveland’s Jarrett Allen up next on Sunday. – As a bonus, the crowd sang happy birthday to Adebayo’s mother before the start of the fourth quarter. – Adebayo extended his career-best streak of consecutive games with at least five assists to eight. – Also, the double-double was the 203rd of Adebayo’s career.

MIAMI — Before Tyler Herro became a thing, became the Miami Heat’s best thing, this was a season that was expected to revolve around Bam Adebayo and Jimmy Butler. Saturday night at Kaseya Center, that is how it played out in a 121-111 victory over the Phoenix Suns. While Herro hardly was a no-show, with 17 points, nine rebounds and seven assists, it was Adebayo who turned the game in the Heat’s favor in the third quarter, and Butler who helped put it away in the fourth. “We all know what they’re capable of,” Herro said of Butler and Adebayo. With Kevin Durant sidelined for the Suns, the Heat seized the moment to move back above .500 at 11-10, backing up their solid effort in Wednesday night’s blowout victory over the Los Angeles Lakers. Adebayo led the way with 25 points, 12 rebounds and eight assists, with Butler adding 24 points, seven rebounds and four assists. “We want to win as many games as fast as we can,” Butler said.
