Shaq Struggles as Heat Routed by Bulls

Plagued by fouls and turnovers, Shaquille O'Neal had one basket through
the first three quarters and never was a factor as the Miami
Heat absorbed a thorough 109-90 beating from the Bulls, who got
back into the Eastern Conference first-round series.No longer shackled by foul trouble, Jermaine O'Neal collected 37 points,
15 rebounds and four blocks in a huge game as the Indiana Pacers
put the pressure on the New Jersey Nets with a 107-95 victory.Tom Enlund of the MILWAUKEE JOURNAL SENTINEL writes, "The Milwaukee Bucks aren't trying to kids themselves. They understand the harsh reality of the situation that confronts them in their National Basketball Association playoff series against the Detroit Pistons. Being down two games to none in a best-of-seven series is bad enough. But digging that kind of hole against a team that has played in the last two NBA Finals is something else again.
