Shaquille O’Neal to be back for Lakers game

There was been no end to the woes off the Heat as they continue to struggle in the absence of star centre Shaquielle O’Neal. Miami who have fared rather poorly in the absence of Shaq should be boosted by the fact that the former Lakers player is making a ahead of scheduled recovery. In all possibilities he should be fit and raring to go against his former mates on the in about tem days time.
O’Neal had hurt his knee on the 2nd of November last year and took another severe blow on the same knee ten days later to end up on the surgeons table. The star is making a fast recovery but says that he doesn’t really feel the extra pressure to comeback in time for what is billed as a hate-contest given the sour relationship he has had with Lakers coach Phil Jackson.
Since signing on the dotted line with Miami Shaq has inspired them to their maiden NBA title last year and the heats would look for a similar performance from him to turn around the form and fortunes of the club this season. The club as I said has been struggling and there are problems aplenty for them both on and off the court.
