The Heat squandered a 24-point lead to the Magic on Thursday, ultimately losing by a score of 99-96.

“This will eventually help us,” said Erik Spoelstra.

“We’ve blown a lot of 20-point leads,” said Chris Bosh. “We just have to do it,” Bosh said. “Sometimes you get caught up in talking too much.”

“We’re going through these growing pains, and it sucks,” Wade said. “Of our 18 losses, I think 13, 14 of them we’ve had leads.

“It’s mind-boggling.”
