The Miami Heat fell way behind to the Orlando Magic, and rallied late, but a bad call made it too difficult to come back completely. This is now 5 straight losses to the Orlando Magic this season. Ethan and Greg went live on the Five Reasons YouTube channel.

Bam slows down, but Larsson leads Heat's 7th straight win Mar 13, 2026

Show notes

The Miami Heat didn't get 83 points from Bam Adebayo again, but even with him inefficient, and with three key players out, they got enough from Pelle Larsson and others to slip past Giannis and the Bucks. Ethan, Greg and Adel went live.

Bam's 83: A courtside seat to history Mar 12, 2026

Show notes

What timing. Eric Rubenstein, a long-time sponsor of Five on the Floor, picked up some floor seats next to the Miami Heat bench for what seemed a run-of-the-mill game against the tanking Washington Wizards. And he was sitting right next to Bam Adebayo as the Miami Heat captain made history. Eric joins Ethan Skolnick to share his experience from the historic night. Everything said and heard.

Bam's 83: Shooting down the narratives w/ Brady Hawk Mar 11, 2026

Show notes

It didn't take long for the NBA's chattering classes to start diminishing Bam Adebayo's 83-point performance. But we were actually at the game... and watched it. Ethan Skolnick and Brady Hawk take on the biggest narrative -- that the free throws weren't warranted.
