T-Mac is sick… Rockets still win

Houston didn’t really need their all star guard Tracy McGrady last night to win.  It’s a good thing too because not long after the game, T-Mac was resting drinking some chicken noodle soup.  They handled the Cavs 92-77 last night.

The sick and sluggish McGrady only scored 8 points on 3-11 shooting.  Yao Ming and Rafer Alston picked up the slack for him though.  Yao finished with 22 points and 12 boards and Rafer had 17 points and 9 assists.

The Cavs really missed Drew Gooden, their second leading rebounder.  They completly got outworked on the boards.  The rebound totals for the game was 55-35 in favor of the Rockets.  Drew Gooden was out of the game with a groin injury.

The Rockets also didn’t let the Cavs get anything going offensively.  LeBron finished going 12-23 from the field but the rest of the team was 19-55.  Owned.
