Unlike Friday night’s game, the Houston Rockets are not competing for attention with the Houston Astros tonight. That should help get some more fans watching this young Rockets squad.
Basically, the story of Houston’s season so far is that they’ve given up 108 or more points in all six games so far this season. They’ve allowed 115+ in four of those contests. That’s not a recipe for success, but with Houston’s lack of interior defense, it doesn’t appear to be an easily fixable problem. And if it was, Stephen Silas and his staff would have figured it out last season when it was also the team’s biggest issue.
