The game is at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 26 on TNT.And on Christmas Day, The Heat will travel to Los Angeles to meet the two-time defending Lakers at 5 p.m. on ABC.The Celtics will feature a roster that includes the Heat's starting center from last season, Jermaine O'Neal, and possibly the Cavs' starting center from last season, Shaquille O'Neal, who is reportedly in talks with Boston.Shaquille O'Neal, of course, also spent nearly four seasons with the Heat, winning a title in 2006 before being traded to Phoenix in 2008.Last season, O'Neal was supposed to be a critical part of James' supporting cast on a Cleveland team with title aspirations, but James' season ended in disappointment in the second round in Boston.It was in Boston where Wade vowed he wouldn't lose in the first round again; and it was against Boston in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference semifinals that James was accused by Cavs owner Dan Gilbert of quitting on his teammates after scoring 15 points on 14 shots in a 32-point loss.It also will be the first meeting between the Celtics' Big Three, who won the title in 2008, and the Heat's new-and-improved Big Three.The Heat-Celtics game will kick off the 2010-11 season.
