    Maurice Taylor said in the preseason that the Rockets' big men would have to watch Yao Ming's back. Sunday, he said he did. Taylor said he squared off with Jamaal Magloire because he did not like the way the Hornets' center was treating Yao. "A lot of guys in the league, when they walk up on you, they don't want to fight," he said. "He had all this opportunity to fight if he wanted to. If that's what he wants to do, I don't have a problem with it. There were things he was doing on the court I don't think were called for. Things he was doing to Yao I didn't think were called for, cheap shots, elbows." Magloire did not seem to know or care what point Taylor was making, and Yao would see more physical play. But if Taylor was watching out for Yao, he might have accomplished something more than talking tough.
