"A" Game

Is there any doubt who the best player has been in this playoff series so far? There are really only 2 candidates:

  • Tracy McGrady
    • 23.3 points per game
    • 7.8 assists
    • 8.5 rebounds
    • 38.3% FG
    • 15.4% 3-point
    • 57.6% FT
    • 3 points per 4th quarter
  • Deron Williams
    • 21.8 points per game
    • 9 assists
    • 1.8 rebounds
    • 54.5% FG
    • 58.3% 3-point
    • 66.7% FT
    • 6.8 points per 4th quarter
BUT...the most important stat: Deron - 3 wins, Tracy - 1 win.

What was nice about last night's win was that the scoring was balanced, all the starters were in double figures and shot fairly well (aside from Boozer's 3-13, but he made all his FTs.) If we shoot at least 25% on threes we win by 10.

I am still worried about game 5. We've won 3 of 4 overall and 3 in a row (in the playoffs) in Houston, but they've been playing well and we've had 3 close games in a row. I say the winner is the first to 90 points.

And in case you didn't see the game last night, here's one of the highlights...
