    Indeed.

    Yao vs Dwight for his career...

    Yao 7-2, 24 PPG, 10 REBs, 2 blocks, 56% FG
    -Yao never scored less than 17 points

    Dwight 2-7, 12 PPG, 10 REBs, 45% FGs

    He would have won a championship that year if he stayed healthy, too.

    ... But so would McGrady the prior year (and that year) if not for injuries.

    Yes, you are right. But there was 22 in a row, which in looking back on that era is probably more significant than the first round win. T-Mac was huge in that streak, because Yao went down after the tenth game.

    I'm not a T-Mac apologist. I think he failed the Rockets in many ways, but that 22 game win streak is how I like to remember him.
