ORLANDO — This time the Miami Heat turned the tables after blowing a 25-point lead in this building five nights earlier. In dramatic fashion, no less. Battling back from a 17-point deficit Thursday night at Kia Center, Erik Spoelstra’s team found a way in the absence of Jimmy Butler, winning on a Tyler Herro 19-foot jumper that closed the scoring with five-tenths of a second to play. Heat 89, Magic 88 …  with the game ending with Magic guard Jalen Suggs off with a 3-pointer that ultimately was ruled after the closing buzzer. “We felt sick to our stomachs after that last game.” Herro said. It wasn’t that this was necessarily appetizing, the Heat closing with 21 turnovers and shooting just .408 from the field, but it certainly removed the bitter taste of Saturday night. “We knew we had to give them one back,” forward Jaime Jaquez said. With Herro doing just that off a Heat timeout down one with 4.9 seconds to play. Unlike previous closing situations amid this uneven 15-13 Heat ride, Herro this time did not settle for a 3-pointer, instead settling in for a jumper in a seam of the Magic defense. “It was just getting the ball to the top,” Herro said, “and letting me play.” Spoelstra said he knew he had to keep it basic against the NBA’s top-ranked defense. “We got the ball to Tyler,” Spoelstra said, “which is not a forgone conclusion the way this was going.” It was a rugged, gritty, at times painful experience, as Spoelstra had forecast when his team arrived in Orlando for Saturday’s game.
