Tayshaun Prince had 24 points and 11 rebounds, Richard Hamilton scored 22 and the Pistons bounced back -- as usual -- and held on to beat the Heat 92-88 Thursday night in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference finals.

Detroit got off to a great start after an awful one in the opener. Shaquille O'Neal and Dwyane Wade's supporting cast was lackluster following its outstanding performance.

But the Heat still made it close with a frantic rally -- scoring 17 points in the final 1:46 after trailing by 12.

"I'm going to go to that offense in the beginning of the night," Miami coach Pat Riley joked.

The conference finals rematch is now a best-of-five series, with Miami headed home to host Game 3 on Saturday night.
