Seeing McGrady advance with the ball himself, Zhang Yang knew T-Mac was getting serious!
McGrady advanced beyond the three-point line and made a change of direction to break through!
Gerald Wallace kept up with McGrady's first step, but McGrady's subsequent steps became quicker. By the time Wallace chased to the free-throw line, he was already behind McGrady.
Okafor moved into position, but McGrady, facing Okafor, jumped to dodge the block from the trailing Gerald Wallace and made a layup with a Euro step!
6 to 4, the Rockets lead by two points!
After the switch of offense and defense, Zhang Yang faced Battier's defense. Unlike McGrady, who directly penetrated, he continued to use Okafor for picks and further opened the interior space.
Zhang Yang, taking advantage of the screen, successfully shook off Juwan Howard and surged into the paint. On the second step of his Euro step, Yao Ming blocked him, and this time he passed!
