Celtics expect Shaq to finally play Saturday
Shaquille O'Neal - C - Boston Celtics
May 5, 2011 - 3:00 PM ET
Coach Doc Rivers said he expects Shaquille O'Neal (calf, Achilles) to play in Saturday's Game 3 against the Heat.
It's now or never for Shaq as the Celtics are down two games to none. Although he's likely in poor physical condition, Rivers said only a setback will keep Shaq from playing Saturday. Considering the Diesel has played in one game since Feb. 1, we're not expecting much. Anything more than 15-20 minutes would be a shock.
