Tracy McGrady scored 26 points, and Bobby Jackson hit a huge three-pointer in the fourth quarter and the Rockets put an end to their mini two-game losing streak with a 109-106 over the Warriors at Oracle Arena. Shane Battier and Carl Landry each scored 17 points for the Rockets, who pulled within one-half game of the idle Los Angeles Lakers for the best record in the Western Conference. Baron Davis led all scorers with 27 points, while Monta Ellis added 24, but it was not enough to defeat one of the hottest teams in the NBA, who have 23 out of their last 25. Al Harrington scored 18 points and grabbed a season-high 14 rebounds, while Mickael Pietrus added 16 points and grabbed 13 rebounds.
