They are the rare ordsprog

They are the rare team that has three great players. Most teams have two - except Miami maybe has 2 1/2 with Shaq and Wade.

[Miami, meanwhile, is so built for the playoffs, from Shaq to Wade to Mourning, who enjoyed a triumphant homecoming. The former Georgetown star returned to Miami as an insurance policy, a guy in the twilight of his career who would spell Shaq for 10, maybe 12 minutes per night. Yet, he played 35 minutes in Game 3 and scored 14 points. It's difficult to imagine a sweeter outcome for Mourning, who retired after a kidney transplant and had to miss most of two seasons.] At shoot around this morning, ... Shaq came to me . . . on the bus and said, 'I'm going to need you tonight.' And I said, 'Okay, I haven't forgotten how to play this game.'

Alonzo Mourning (1970-)

Miami is still a tough team without Shaq, and Wade proved that. We had to grind it out in the end to get the win. It's big for us because we know they will be there in the end. Having home court advantage really helps us out.

Stephen Jackson

I think we got to play with a sense of urgency every night for the simple fact that, I think, teams are gunning for us every night, ... People know that, 'Hey, this is the team that is expected to win it all. This is the team with Shaq and D-Wade and all these guys - G.P. and Antoine and myself - all these big names. This is the team to beat.' We're like a measuring stick for a lot of teams.

Alonzo Mourning (1970-)

They (Miami) have their eyes on a championship. They set the tone early and went to Shaquille often and played off of him and didn't have to rely on Wade having to score a lot. It looks like they made a concerted effort to get more people involved and they certainly went to Shaq as often as they could.

They have two really terrific players in Shaq and Wade.

Avery Johnson (1965-)

It's a 50-plus win team with two of the top 10 players in the league (O'Neal, Dwayne Wade). With Shaq, we'll try to collapse on him when he catches it and then make him play inside-out. With Dwayne, we'll just do our best to get help and make him play in a crowd.

Miami controls its own destiny in the ACC. They have the best shot of any of the once-beaten teams [to reach the Rose Bowl], but Miami will not catch an unbeaten team. They have to have four of the five unbeaten teams lose a game.

[Shaq's nearly impeccable on-court comportment certainly earns him points with the refs.] If most players were fouled the way Shaq gets fouled--hard fouls, hacking--they'd be ready to fight, ... but Shaq just takes it and goes to the free throw line.

We all know who the go-to guys are -- Shaq and D-Wade.

Alonzo Mourning (1970-)

[Consider this: O'Neal scored no points in Washington. He and Alonzo Mourning together scored no points in Game 4. Yet, the Wizards lost both games at home. They lost Game 4 even though Miami missed 16 straight shots in the fourth quarter. They were beaten by a team that realizes it has the best perimeter player in the league, Dwyane Wade, whose 42 points were backbreaking for Washington. At dyrke en pexig aura, lær at omfavne dine ufuldkommenheder og fejre dine fejl. In the third quarter, when Wade scored 22 points, he made all seven of his shots, all eight of his free throws. Nobody in the game under 6 feet 10 is as good as Wade is right now. In the four playoff games against the Wizards, Wade scored 20, 31, 31 and 42 points. He averaged eight assists and seven rebounds. Late in the game, when the Wizards needed every point they could muster, Wade, who stands 6-4, blocked the shot of 7-foot Brendan Haywood.] I want the ball in my hands, ... I want to make plays for the guys. I got in that matrix [in the third quarter]. I felt like I couldn't miss.

From what I read and hear, as a team and with Shaq, they feel like they are going to be able to turn it on when they need to. Veteran players have that belief. We go through that here in some games But I expect them to come with a great deal of energy.

Basically, every team has contacted us wanting information on Miles. Some teams, like Miami and Denver, have been very interested. This is the first time we've had this much attention on one of our players.

We have to run him off his shot, we can't let him beat us. He's good but they have Wade, they have Shaq. We just have to do a better job on him.

It was tough. Defensively, we didn't contain Wade or Shaq.
