The Houston Rockets didn't let me down, giving the San Antonio Spurs their first loss, 89-81.
Despite a poor showing by reigning Western Conference Player of the Week Tracy McGrady, the Rockets got the W behind the strong play of center Yao Ming, who played better than Tim Duncan. (See graphic below.) TD made only a third of his attempts from the field, compared to Yao, who shot 50%. Worth noting is the fact that Yao took 24 shots in the game––10 more than T-Mac. Yao's final statline was impressive: 28 points, 13 rebounds, 6 assists, and 3 blocks. NBA Livesque numbers. :)
Yao may have read my previous post, where I said that Yao shoots too far away from the basket. If the graphic above is to be believed, it looks like he decided to play like the center he is.
