Quarter-Finals Round 1: Houston R. - LA Lakers 100-92
Date: May 4, 2009
For a few agonizing, heart-stopping moments, Ming Yao rocked back and forth on the floor, grimacing and holding his right knee. The Rockets had taken the usual Lakers fourth-quarter hit and hit back harder. But then Yao was knocked hard to the floor, felled when Kobe Bryant’s left knee crashed into Yao’s right. And all that the Rockets had built seemed to be crashing with him. But Yao insisted he be brought back into the game and the Rockets were every bit as unstoppable, surging through the final six minutes that had tormented them this season to stun the Lakers with a 100-92 win Monday night at Staples Center in the opener of the Western Conference semifinals. Ming Yao finished with 28 points. Kobe Bryant, who had missed Saturday's practice and was called a game-time decision with a sore throat, led the Lakers with 32 points, but needed 31 shots to get it.
