Tracy McGrady hit this jumper for the Rockets at the beginning of the match. But the Bucks would take control midway through the opening quarter to build a 32-23 lead. Yao Ming didn't get his first basket until the second quarter, and that reduced the deficit to 8 points for the Rockets. The Bucks led by 6 at the break, but would then spark a big second-half run. Ramon Sessions's jumper made it 105-83 early in the final quarter. He finished with a game-high 26 points.



Then, Richard Jefferson put on a show for the fans, finishing this go-ahead dunk. He added 25 points. With the game out of reach, the Rockets played with their bench players for most of the quarter. The Bucks ran away 124-112 winners.
