Bam Adebayo on the Heat's three-game losing streak: “This builds character. This is going to build character for our team, from one through 15, and the coaches. This has been the first real time we’ve had real adversity with losses, dropping three straight. We usually always find a way to win. But this is the first time we’re having real adversity and it’s going to build character.”
