 HOUSTON (AP) - Tracy McGrady bent over exhausted at midcourt after the Houston Rockets extended their winning streak to 22 games by beating the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday. There's no time to rest, however. The Rockets host Boston, the NBA's best team, on Tuesday.
"It's going to be a challenge, it's going to be a tough game for us," McGrady said. "But we're capable of winning it."
The Rockets' streak was already the second-longest in NBA history and they took over the top spot in the Western Conference with Sunday's 104-92 victory. McGrady scored only 11 points on 4-for-16 shooting and the win showed again that the Rockets have become more than a one-man show since Yao Ming went down with a foot injury 10 games ago.
