Feeling the Heat?

Having the Defending Champion Heat listed first among the Clown Car crew may be a bit premature on my part. Though old and creaky, the Daddy is still the Daddy, even if his Diesel days are done. Said Shaq after his big game versus the Wizards: "I'm known as 'The Big Sewer, because I've got a lot of you-know-what in my game."
The Wiz opted to mostly single cover Shaq and the plan back-fired.
"I think when guys guard him one-on-one, he likes it but he's kind of insulted," Haslem said. "Because he thinks that people feel like he's lost it a little bit. He don't appreciate that."
But from my perspective, as good as Shaq’s game was against thew Wizards, he was OUT REBOUNDED by Eddy Curry the night before, and that is a major indicator that the era of Most Dominant Ever has ended.

On another Heat note, hilarious story on the Champions visit to the White House: Bushy was trying to hob-nob it up with the Champs, but his ploys fell as flat as his foreign policy: “[The President] later attempted to bounce his autographed ball to the 7-foot-1, 325-pound Heat center, but the under-inflated sphere merely hit the floor with a thud, as O'Neal smiled.”
