Victor Oladipo‘s inspiring effort earned him an A+ even in defeat tonight. While the majority of Magic players no-showed in tonight’s loss there were a few others outside of Oladipo that left a positive impact on the game.

It was not a strong start for the Orlando Magic. Not at all.

The Magic fell behind by as much as 22 points and needed a crazy fourth-quarter rally to get it within six. Do not let the close score fool you. The Heat controlled this game from the first quarter on with Victor Oladipo and Tobias Harris being the only players to do anything about it.
