"It's unbelievable," said Rockets swingman Tracy McGrady, who had a team-high 28 points against the Hawks. "For me to be on this team that has accomplished 20 straight wins, that has got to be right up there with the most gratifying things I've accomplished in this league. ... You look at the Bulls that were 72-10, they didn't even do it. So this is pretty remarkable."
The Rockets have not lost since falling to the Utah Jazz 97-89 on Jan. 27.
"You could see the guys, it really means something to get this and just keep not only the streak going, but keep moving in the right direction," Adelman said.
