The Heat Cooling Down?

So Shaq doesn't play for a game and it's down the drain for the Miami Heat? Heat was leading the playoff semifinal against the Washington Wizards 3-0, with games that won by as much as 30 points. Then Shaq sits out, and tonight's game was neck to neck (losing a 13 point lead? What was that?). Heat won the semifinals with a 4-0 sweep anyway, but doesn't a 99-95 win show that the Heat isn't quite the super team that it usually is without its key player? So much for teamwork...

To be fair, Dwayne Wade had pretty good stats this season, higher than Shaq's even. And the players, sans Shaq, played well tonight. But still, the point disparity in comparison to previous games is simply pretty sad.

Hmph. I kinda wish the Rockets is still in the tournament...
