The most anticipated game in the NBA recently was undoubtedly the match-up between the Spurs and the Rockets. In the end, the Rockets lost 85-88 at home against the Spurs and failed to gain an advantage in this ranking battle between the third and second oldest teams. In this game, Yao Ming's performance remained stable, scoring 18 points and grabbing 10 rebounds with 9 successful shots out of 17 attempts. However, once again during the critical moments, Yao Ming was forgotten by his teammates. As a team leader, frequently encountering such embarrassment is not a good thing.

Yao Ming didn't lose to Duncan but struggled to win games.

In yesterday's match-up between the Spurs and the Rockets, the biggest highlight was undoubtedly the face-off between Yao Ming and Tim Duncan. In previous matches, Yao Ming had two major issues. One was that he lacked passion despite being steady in the game; the other issue was that when facing other top centers in the league, Yao Ming had some deficiencies in defense. However, neither of these problems surfaced when Yao Ming faced Duncan yesterday.
