He might be even happier to see their next opponent. The Rockets have won nine of 10 games against the Los Angeles Clippers - many in convincing fashion - and theyll look to continue that dominance Tuesday night as the visiting Clippers close their own run of four contests in five nights. Houston (16-11) wont have Yao Ming this season and has gotten just 31 minutes out of Tracy McGrady, but its generally played very well despite starting 6-foot-6 Chuck Hayes at center and adjusting to Trevor Ariza as its primary scoring threat.
Ariza, never more than a complementary player in his first five seasons, has struggled to adjust at times, shooting 39.4 percent while attempting twice as many shots as his previous career high.
He carried Houston on Saturday against Oklahoma City, however, a night after Aaron Brooks and Kyle Lowry combined for 51 points in an overtime win at Dallas. Ariza scored a game-high 31 and played 47 minutes in the 95-90 home win over the Thunder.
