"One team is being lauded for its defensive toughness and physical play, even though those are traits it hadn't shown for most of the season," writes Israel Gutierrez of the MIAMI HERALD. "The other team is being criticized for its `vacation mentality,' and switching from a downtown Miami hotel to one well north of South Beach. One team is suddenly playing with a second superstar, as Shaquille O'Neal has rejoined Dwyane Wade on that higher plane they have occupied together for two years."
