Shaquille O'Neal feeding Udonis Haslem for an easy layup. Think Shaquille O'Neal is having fun again? The Miami Heat's Big Dominator has picked the most opportune time to find the Fountain of Youth. O'Neal appears to be getting younger as this Eastern Conference finals series goes deeper, defying his 34 years and answering those who believed his body would break down long before the championship trophy was awarded. The Heat is one victory from its first trip to the NBA Finals following an 89-78 victory over the Detroit Pistons Monday at the raucous AmericanAirlines Arena. The biggest reason for this 3-1 series lead has been the Pistons inability to cope with Dwyane Wade on the perimeter and O'Neal on the block. "I feel pretty young," O'Neal said. "This is the first time I haven't had any knickknack injuries, so I feel pretty good. It's kind of a different role for me playing with a great Dwyane Wade, but it's a role that I've accepted. My numbers are going to be different but it's all about winning." Perhaps the Pistons will be on the tee box when they finally realize that covering O'Neal with one broken down defensive player of the year is about as smart as hiring a coach whose previous team had a reputation of wilting in the playoffs. Oops. Never mind. O'Neal once again dominated Ben Wallace, scoring 21 points on 8-of-12 shooting, going to the line 15 times (making five) and forcing the Pistons to dig deep into their bench to find bodies with enough fouls remaining to hack Shaq. O'Neal is averaging 20.8 points, 10.3 rebounds and shooting 62 percent in the series. "You feed the big dog and he does whatever you tell him to do," O'Neal said. The most stunning play, perhaps, of O'Neal's two-year tenure in South Florida occurred late in the second quarter when he deflected a Richard Hamilton pass on the perimeter, swooped up the loose ball and headed down court with the agility and mobility of a point guard, faking out a confused Lindsey Hunter at the basket and finishing the play with a soft underhanded flip. "I have that in my game," O'Neal said. "It's just been a while. I used to do that when I was younger. I've been holding back." O'Neal called the play an, "opportunity to get the crowd going." The Big Jokester was just beginning. "I was born to do that," he said. "I'll be doing that when I'm 60." O'Neal's teammates enjoyed the play as much as their center. "He just got a chance to get it on the break and he took it all the way to the hole," Udonis Haslem said. "He looked pretty good doing it." This came after Shaq gave the Heat the early momentum with a pretty spin move against Ben Wallace, a heady pass to Udonis Haslem with two seconds on the shot clock that Haslem turned into a layup, and a turnaround jump shot from 15 feet to beat the shot clock. "I'm much older but I'm much smarter," O'Neal said. "When teams don't double me I'm going to take my high percentage shot. When they double me I'm going to be looking for my teammates." O'Neal was largely responsible for getting Ben Wallace and Rasheed Wallace in foul trouble. By the third quarter, the Pistons started using Dale Davis and Antonio McDyess to wrap up Shaq underneath. The Pistons' four big men combined for 15 fouls with Rasheed Wallace fouling out with 3:55 remaining and Ben Wallace finishing with four fouls in 30 minutes. The Heat now has three shots to send O'Neal to his sixth NBA Final. Although Miami led 3-2 a year ago, the team limped into Detroit. Wade sat out because of injured ribs and O'Neal still was hobbled from a bruised thigh he received at the end of the regular season. Miami was blown out in Game 6 in Detroit and lost a close Game 7 at home to end their season. Now, the Heat is healthy and Shaq is having fun. Again. "We don't want to get too high and mighty," O'Neal said. "Our job is not done yet. We have to play the perfect game on Wednesday." --
