No Dwyane Wade was definitely a problem for the Miami Heat Saturday night.

Without their star PG, the Heat were helpless, getting blown out by the Detroit Pistons 91-66, the worst loss in Miami playoff history.

Shaquille O’Neal’s 24 points and game leading 13 boards were hardly enough.

Richard Hamilton’s 24 points led the Pistons. As did Rasheed Wallace, who helped more by promising a victory than scoring 11 points.

With the win, the Pistons, the defending NBA champions, force a game 7.

Wade, who suffered a rib injury in Thursday’s game 5, is expected to return Monday night for the series finale at American Airlines Arena.
