On Thursday’s basketball game between the visiting Cleveland Cavaliers and Houston Rockets, Ron Artest and Shane Battier played excellent defense on Lebron James, keeping him at bay and forcing the Cavaliers into a horrible shooting night.  The Rockets team work is starting to gel now and they won their 6th straight game without their superstar Tracy McGrady.  The final score was 93-74.

The leading scorer for the Rockets was Yao Ming with 28 points on an incredible 13 for 15 field goal shooting extravanganza.  Ron Artest had 15 points and Luis Scola had 14 points.  Von Wafer was high man off the bench with 19 points and shot the ball well from downtown.  Houston improves their record to 37 wins and 21 losses on the season.
