Box Score | Rockets Home | Spurs Home
HOUSTON, Dec. 9 (Ticker) -- With a long losing streak against their Texas rivals, Tracy McGrady proved to be the difference for the Houston Rockets.
McGrady scored 13 of his 33 points in the final 35 seconds, including a game-winning 3-pointer with 1.7 seconds remaining as the Rockets snapped a seven-game slide against the San Antonio Spurs with an 81-80 triumph.
After Devin Brown's two free throws extended San Antonio's lead to 76-68 with 44 seconds to play, McGrady answered with a 3-pointer nine seconds later.
Brown hit two more free throws with 31 seconds to go, but McGrady answered again. He drew contact from Tim Duncan while hitting another 3-pointer and made the ensuing free throw to complete a four-point play and reduce Houston's deficit to 78-75 with 24 seconds left.
Eight seconds later, Duncan increased the Spurs' lead to 80-75 with a pair of free throws. But McGrady responded with another shot from the arc with 11 seconds remaining.
After San Antonio's final timeout, Brown turned over the ball on the baseline. McGrady scooped up the loose ball and raced to the other end before pulling up at the top of the arc and burying the winning 3-pointer with just under two seconds remaining, giving Houston its third straight win and its first against San Antonio since December 3, 2002.
McGrady, who had 17 points in the final quarter, shot 12-of-29 from the floor with eight rebounds and five steals. Yao Ming added 27 points and 10 boards.
Duncan scored 18 of his 26 points in the second half and collected 18 rebounds for San Antonio. The two-time MVP also had seven of the Spurs' season-high 12 blocks.
Brown scored 20 points, including eight during a 15-2 run in the fourth quarter that gave the Spurs a 73-62 lead with 2:54 remaining.
