The Miami Heat played without injured center Alonzo Mourning and suspended forward Udonis Haslem on Monday, but coach Pat Riley knew he had more than enough weapons to take a 2-0 lead against the Bulls in the first-round Eastern Conference playoff series. And that arsenal extended beyond Dwyane Wade and Shaquille O'Neal, who combined for 43 points. The Heat put six players in double figures, so not even the Bulls' 53.2 percent shooting could save them from a 115-108 defeat. Heat point guard Jason Williams hasn't been getting much attention from the media, and even the Bulls sagged off him a bit. But expect that to change because Williams has been a major factor in the Heat's success. He tied O'Neal with a team-high 22 points on 7-for-11 shooting after scoring 17 points Saturday in Game 1. ''They sagged off me a little in the first half, so I had to shoot,'' Williams said. ''I never thought I was a good shooter, so I'd probably do the same thing if I were them. But I was just trying to hit my shots when they doubled Shaq.'' Williams said the knee tendinitis that plagued him late in the season still acts up, but not enough to make an impact. ''It's still sore, but at this point in the season, you have to fight through it,'' he said. ''I was worried about my conditioning. I never thought working in the pool would help, but it did. My conditioning still isn't 100 percent.'' Forward Antoine Walker also stepped up in Haslem's absence, scoring 17 points and grabbing 10 rebounds. Haslem was suspended for Game 2 for throwing his mouthpiece in the direction of referee Joe Crawford in Game 1. ''I thought [the suspension] was a tremendous overreaction on the part of the referee and the league,'' Mourning said. ''When I get a chance, I'm going to have a long talk with Stu [Jackson, the NBA's senior vice president of basketball operations]. Stu was a player, and he knows the intensity of a playoff game. I thought he would use better judgment. ''If Udonis wanted to hit Joey with that mouthpiece, he would have thrown it higher. And if Joey were looking up the court at where the play was going, he wouldn't have seen it. I thought Udonis should have gotten a technical foul and maybe a fine. That's it.'' Riley said he talked with Haslem, who was not even allowed into American Airlines Arena for Game 2. ''He has great remorse,'' Riley said. ''Udonis is a warrior. He wanted to be out there. ''After he calmed down, he was embarrassed by the whole thing. I think there were three plays in a row that frustrated him prior to that, then that play where he thought he was fouled. ... He was really remorseful. He'll be back.'' Mourning also missed the game as he continues to recover from a torn muscle in his right calf. ''I'm coming close to being back on the court,'' said Mourning, who had considered playing Monday. ''I'm making a tremendous amount of progress.''
