Heat center Bam Adebayo on the road str: “We have to learn how to win on the road. “I mean, I feel like that’s been our biggest battle this whole year, winning on the road. I don’t know what it is. When we’re home — play lights out, it’s electric, we’re having fun. But when we go on the road, it’s like — come out sluggish, we’re trying to figure it out. I don’t know.”
