Yao Ming scored 29 points and Tracy McGrady had 26 points and 10 rebounds to lead the Houston Rockets to a 100-84 victory over the Trail Blazers on Wednesday night, completing a four-game sweep of the season series against Portland.

　　McGrady’s 3-pointer extended Houston’s lead to 72-57 midway through the third quarter, and the Rockets went on to lead by as many as 25 points for their sixth win in seven games.

　　Houston, in fifth place in the West, went 3-1 on its road trip and will play six of its final 10 games at home.

　　McGrady had scored 44 points in the Rockets’ 99-85 victory over Utah on Monday, showing no signs of a right hip strain that had been bothering him recently. It was his fifth game with 40 or more points this season.

　　With Houston’s sizable lead, McGrady did not play in the fourth quarter against the Blazers.

　　The most intriguing matchup of the game was between 7-foot-6 Yao and Portland’s 7-foot-3 Ha Seung-Jin. Jin was selected by Portland in the second round, 46th overall, of last year’s draft. He is the first Korean to play in the NBA.
