Bulls-Heat Preview

Jermaine O'Neal's offseason training in Illinois seems to have paid off. The Chicago Bulls put in hard work there as well to prepare for the early season test they have endured.

O'Neal, looking strong in his first two games, leads the undefeated Heat into Sunday night's matchup with a Bulls team that has had mixed results during a pair of tough matchups.

Miami (2-0) acquired O'Neal from Toronto in February, but sore knees impaired his play and he failed to get more than five rebounds in 14 of 27 regular-season games with the Heat.

O'Neal changed his diet and rehabbed over the summer in Chicago with Tim Grover, the former personal trainer of Michael Jordan, and this season has performed like the player that finished third in the league MVP voting in 2004.

O'Neal had 22 points and 12 rebounds in Miami's 96-83 win over Indiana on Friday night, matching his stats from a 115-93 season-opening victory over New York on Wednesday night.

Against the Pacers, his former team, he was called for a technical for hanging on the rim after a dunk in the second quarter, but said that was more about having healthy knees than showing up Indiana.

"It was a little bit overboard, but it's been a while since I've been able to just catch and take off," O'Neal said. "I'm just showing you guys some of the work I've put together this summer."

O'Neal posted consecutive 20-point, 10-rebound games for the first time since December 2007, when he was with Indiana.

The six-time All-Star is finally providing the Heat with a low-post presence to complement star guard Dwyane Wade, who is averaging 29.0 points and 2.5 steals.

Wade, a Chicago native, averaged 39.5 points, 8.0 assists, 5.5 rebounds and 2.0 blocks in his last two games against the Bulls (1-1).

Chicago couldn't keep up with Boston's star-laden lineup in a 118-90 loss Friday night, the teams' first meeting since the Celtics won a seven-game playoff series last spring that featured a record seven overtime periods.

The Bulls committed 15 turnovers after giving up the ball nine times in a 92-85 win over San Antonio in their opener Thursday night.

"I'm happy this is early in the season so we can come back and learn from it," point guard Derrick Rose said. "I'm still trying to find my groove out there."

Rose, last season's Rookie of the Year, is averaging 11.5 points after posting 16.8 last season.

The Bulls, though, are getting promising play from third-year big man Joakim Noah. He is averaging 13.0 points, 10.0 rebounds and 2.0 blocks.

Noah has been slow to develop after being selected ninth overall in the 2007 draft.

He averaged 7.0 points and 9.7 rebounds in last season's series against the Heat, who won three of four meetings.

Wade grabs 10,000th career point, win over Bulls

MIAMI (NBA.com exclusive) -- Trust went a long way toward getting Miami a 95-87 victory over Chicago on Sunday at AmericanAirlines Arena.

It was trust that allowed guard Dwyane Wade, one of the game's best crunch time performers, to give up game-securing shots and pass to teammates Udonis Haslem (19 points, 11 rebounds) and Quentin Richardson down the stretch.

"It's all about trust," said Wade, who ended with 25 points, "and my teammates are doing a great job in these first games in making us believe in each other."

Wade also became the 43rd active player to top the 10,000-point plateau.

Miami is 3-0 for only the third time in franchise history, and the first time since the 2004-05 season. In all three games this season it has held its opponent to less than 41 percent shooting from the field.

But it might have been Chicago's defense that had the most late-game influence. The Bulls' defense smothered Wade on the plays he passed to Haslem and Richardson. And although Wade, the league's leading scorer last season, could have taken those clutch shots and at least gone to the free throw line, he opted to be charitable.

"You'll probably see a lot more of that as teams take the ball out of his hands at the end of the game," coach Erik Spoelstra said. Chicago (1-2) felt good about its defense, but its offense was another matter.

"We had good looks and good shots, but we just didn't knock them down," Bulls coach Vinny Del Negro said.

Miami, on the other hand, did knock down its open shots. Wade was just 1-for-3 shooting in the fourth quarter. The Bulls, however, still couldn't overtake the Heat. Chicago's last lead came at 83-82 when John Salmons (17 points) hit a 3-pointer. From there the Heat ended the game on a 13-4 run that included Richardson's 3-pointer and Haslem's jumper.

Haslem, a starter for six years until he was benched in favor of Michael Beasley this season, hit a 17-foot baseline jumper with 47.4 seconds left to extend Miami's lead to 91-87. Richardson's 3-pointer gave Miami an 89-83 lead with 1:41 left.

Those shots highlighted the difference between how Miami and Chicago executed down the stretch. Bulls forward Luol Deng ended with a game-high 26 points but he was just 1-for-5 for four points in the fourth quarter.

And Chicago guard Derrick Rose was hard-pressed to make an impact. He finished with eight points on 4-for-15 shooting and didn't seem to have the burst that was his specialty last season en route to Rookie off the Year honors.

"His ankle isn't 100 percent and his conditioning isn't great because he had to sit out for a couple of weeks," Del Negro said.

Beasley recorded a double-double with 10 points and 11 rebounds and is now averaging 14.6 points per game in his 22 career starts. Even though Beasley was just 3-for-12 from the field, his contribution was helpful.

"I think it shows maturity," he said. "Last year if I wasn't scoring I was pretty much useless. This year I want to show not only the team, but the league and the world that I can do more than score."
