Jermaine O'Neal, who will return to the floor for the Pacers on Monday against the Heat after more than two months on the bench, doesn't think he has anything to prove, according to the Indianapolis Star.
"I don't feel I have to prove anything to my doubters. I feel I need to prove it to myself," O'Neal said,"that I can get back and dominate once again. At 29, I'm not ready to give that up."
"I'm going to get some things off my chest (on the court) next season, but it's going to start with me in the summertime," Jermaine added.

He will come off the bench and isn't expected to play more than twenty minutes a game for the time being.
"I haven't lost my defensive rhythm," O'Neal said. "Offensively it's going to take me a couple of games to get myself together, but we don't need me as much offensively now."
