South Beach pulled off a last-minute heist after letting victory slip through their fingers the week before. While last week’s loss still stings, Herro’s buzzer-beater served as a perfect balm for Miami fans. But let’s be real—Miami didn’t get off to the dream start they were looking for. The Magic sprinted out to a 14-0 lead, aided by an avalanche of turnovers and missed shots that left Miami scrambling.
Yet, as the game wore on, Orlando faltered at the worst possible time: the fourth quarter. Their stars were nowhere to be found in the clutch, failing to deliver the poise expected of them when the pressure soared. A staggering nine turnovers in the final quarter? That’s too much. And coupled with a dismal 5-for-30 showing from beyond the arc, the odds were stacked high against them. Kudos to Jalen Suggs though, who poured in 29 points, giving his all while his teammates struggled. Ah, the spirit of the holidays encapsulated on the hardwood.
