The label on Tracy McGrady was he is soft can’t count on him and will never perform when it counts. Well at least tonight McGrady showed the NBA world what he can still do. McGrady tonight for the Rockets lead all scores with 29 points as the Rockets who were facing elmination tonight beat the Jazz by 25. The Rockets came into the playoffs shooting the worse out of any playoff team at 39% and scoring and average of 85 but tonight the Rockets came home and were on point. They shot 47% 15-19 from the free throw line and outscored the Jazz bench 26-9. “We’re in a great situation,” McGrady said. “We know we can win in Utah because we’ve done it before.” The Jazz had a night they will like to forget shooting 36% from the floor with 18 turnovers the Jazz’s Deron Williams had this to say about the Rockets defense tonight.”They’re a tough defensive team,” Williams said. “We got away from our offense a little bit, especially early in the game. We rushed some shots. We have to realize what’s a good shot and what’s a bad shot, when to make the extra pass and when to shoot it. We struggled with that today and it’s something we can do better.” The Jazz and Rockets look to lock up again game 6 in Utah. Utah had the best record at home this season at 37-4 but the Rockets is the only team in the NBA who has beaten them twice in that building game 6 looks to be a classic.
