Mike Escriba's Reaction To Tonight's CRAZY HEAT-Magic OT Thriller

Henry Walker, who was recently signed to just a 10 day contract, hit a last second three to send the Miami HEAT into overtime in Orlando which eventually lead to a Miami win against the Magic

Why, why, whyyyyyyyyyy......did i turn off my TV with 33 seconds left?

 I gave up even when Rio got fouled on the 3 pointer. I am so ashamed of myself especially after everything the HEAT have done the past few years. 

But how was i supposed to know Henry...wait, Bill....no, Henry, whatever, Walker was going to turn into Ray Allen in a few seconds?

With that being said, the HEAT pulled it off while I watched overtime at Chipotle on my phone. 

This was a horrible offensive game. 

Chalmers hardly let Dragic handle the ball. Dwyane was taking way too many contested jumpers. This team clearly misses Chris Bosh. Everything was pointing to another loss against a non playoff team. 

Not today though...

The HEAT showed they were fed up with losing like this. 

Sure, Whiteside was getting called for ridiculous fouls but he proved once again his presence is a problem for other teams and their players, even Vucevic....the HEAT killer. I read on Twitter that Hassan was struggling....yeah, he did....and still got a double-double. 

I found myself thanking the Godfather Pat Riley for not trading away the warrior that is Luol Deng, without him, there is no way we win a lot of games this season. 

The HEAT will face the New Orleans Pelicans on Friday night, where I expect Dragic to be more involved and Wade to be better.

I hope.
