Houston's bench came through on Saturday led by rookie Aaron Brooks who had 22 points. "He's an amazing player," said Yao, "Everybody knows he has speed, good skill and very strong confidence. Everybody knew one day, he would play like (he did) tonight. We didn't know which day. But one day." The Rockets have had to pick up the slack without McGrady and so far so good. "We're competitive. We've always been competitive," said Brooks.

Washington is coming off two great performances. They routed the Bucks on Friday and the Sonics on Sunday. Caron Butler had 33 points in the win on Sunday. "I want to see him against the best players - with the monsters coming in. We've got Houston. We've got Boston, but who's looking ahead?" head coach Eddie Jordan said.
