2024-2025 Regular Season Game 30: Miami Heat (13-12) at Orlando Magic (17-12) - 7pm

Just saw replay of Mortiz injury. Best case MCL injury? Jesus... Hopefully isn't ACL.

yeah, best case would probably be a MCL sprain, but it looked bad.

Gallows Humour : guys how weird would it be if it was an oblique?

Too soon man.

Unbelievable.

What a collapse by Miami and an incredible rally by a rag-tag bunch of players. Credit Mosley for having those guys ready and focused.

Didn't see it live and if I had i prob would have gone to bed after the 3Q!!! Would have been 3am or so...

Great performance from Cole. Doesn't really change the fit issues we have but happy for him on a personal level. Gives Weltman a bit more trade leverage if the rumours are true. Not that he'd know what to do with it!

[zaymon]

Well thats how our offense can look with consistent driving threat from the guard spot.
Great win !

[KillMonger]

man if i was dead set on trading cole....after that performance i wouldn't play him another minute until he's traded

[Orl_Magic]

havent seen that type of perfermance from Cole since I wanna say that Minnesota game a 2 or 3 years back lol. Im hope he keeps it up

[drsd]

I will focus o the positives given the dark negative.

If Miami had won this game and the 26 Dec game, the Heat would have overtaken the Magic. From a pure W/L reason, this is arguably the most important win of this season so far.

Stat I saw:

Teams up 22+ going into the 4th Q were 796-0 over the last 5 yrs.

Until tonight.

Saw that too. Wow!!!! 796-1 now. Certainly a game we wont forget.

Great game, Only negative is that WCJ and JI still look almost unplayable. Hold out hope JI can return to his best with some conditioning, but all hope with WCJ is gone. We lose this if he doesn't get ejected

Just had to read the Miami board game thread….LMAO!!!!!! Great read, recommend.

I think Wendell has looked pretty good the last couple of games. It always takes him a while to get into shape after injuries. JI looks lost lately on both sides of the ball. He can play way better. It might be harder to trade JI now since he's our emergency center.

It did probably help when Wendell got ejected because Miami is a super small team.

I almost forgot Miami was on a back to back, which explains some of the 4th quarter collapse. Then again, 796-0 is pretty good odds no matter how tired...

How deep was the hole for that other massive comeback in Miami under SVG? I still remember that game.

Mo's injury makes it hard to enjoy this spectacular win, I really, really hope it is not as bad as it looked.

I thought when he came in that the circumstances were perfect for a big Cole game scoring wise - the game looked lost, all of our top players were out, so no pressure on him and unlimited green light due to the lack of scorers left, but I didn't expect it to lead to a win. Mosley deserves a ton of credit for the fighting spirit of this team, they just refuse to quit no matter what. Queen really stepped upo from the deep bench and Goga had another relly good game. KCP as also really good, he shot 12 FTs which is fantastic for a guy not known for his offense or driving, he probably had about this amount of non-technical FT attempt the whole season until last night. And credit to Cory Joseph too, he has stayed in shape while being out of the rotation and did a solid job.

Spo helped too, I don't know what he was doing in the 4th, Were was playing great while Bam was pretty bad yet Bam played the whole 4th on the second night of a back-to-back and looked horrible while Were played 0 minutes.

This was a really weird reffed game, BTW, the refs were whistling everything for 3 quarters then decided that in the 4th it's "No blood, no foul", total lack of consistency.

[rcklsscognition]

Queen played really well. I can’t remember but I think he was guarding Herro a bit and shut him down good. These guys rarely play together so someone was orchestrating the defense well. Really impressive to watch. Definitely a Mosely COTY game. The team was out of sorts with the injury and all the techs being called and Mos just kept them going. Incredible.

[basketballRob]

CoJo also deserves praise. He was solid on both ends.

Riley is probably inquiring about Queen as we speak. He's the type of player who Miami always finds.

This is troll Miami year. We spoiled Pat Riley night and now give them one of their worst loses in franchise history. Love it!

[magik9113]

serious question: do we win if WCJ doesn't get ejected?
