Before seperating his shoulder, McGrady played like an all-star. Here, he lays in an acrobatic shot with an and one opportunity.

Quote of the Night:
"I really don't know what to say right now. We've got a game tomorrow against the clippers and Tracy is on his way back to Houston for an MRI on his shoulder. Battier will start tomorrow night and Von Wafer will play the back up role. We've got a lot of sole searching to do and if we want a chance to get ahead early in the conference, we need to do it quickly." - Coach Rick Adelman
