"He's the finest competitor I've coached in my 16 years in the NBA," Van Gundy said. "I've been fortunate. I've been around a lot of great competitors. I've never been around a competitor that plays every play, every day like he does. "The ability to sustain your concentration and your intensity and your focus every play, every day, every practice, every game, it's a unique talent that very few value. But that does have a huge impact on whether you are able to maximize your ability as a team." Van Gundy described the Corliss Williamson charge, with the Rockets leading the Kings by five Saturday night, as "full-force contact. (Battier) has courage." But Battier said it was not his most painful hit. "Most of them are (painful), especially from the bigger guys in this league," Battier said. "But I've been doing this long enough to know how to fall, especially when guys are going so fast. They fall on top of you sometimes. I took a charge in Orlando last year from Kelvin Cato that was much worse. A lot more blood." That took nine stitches. Life at 40 With his 18 rebounds Saturday, including a tip that gave the Rockets a decisive five-point lead in overtime, Rockets center Dikembe Mutombo, 40, has had at least 10 rebounds in 10 consecutive games, including three games with 18 or more. Mutombo has averaged 14.1 rebounds during that stretch. His average of 20.6 rebounds per 48 minutes leads (among qualified players) the NBA. "Deke's played great, not good," coach Jeff Van Gundy said.
