NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal won his last championship as a member of the Miami Heat in 2006.  While speaking to the Miami Sun Sentinel, O'Neal was asked about the difficulty the Heat may face when it comes to defending their NBA Championship.  

"It's all about their health," he said of the Heat's perimeter stars, "because this season as compared to last season, this one is a real season....It's going to be 80 games," he said. "Last year, I think the Heat had the advantage, because against guys like LeBron, D-Wade, 50 games, they're going to dominate pretty much every time. But 80 games, anything can happen....D-Wade has already missed a couple of games. So it's all about the health of the guys. I know if everybody stays healthy, they'll be fine...As long as those guys stay healthy, they will still be the favorites," O'Neal said of the Heat. "So it's all about their health and it it's all about their core group and staying together. Pat Riley and the management has done a great job of keeping everybody together."
