The Houston Rockets are near the top of the Western Conference, currently possessing a close-to-sterling 34-12 record. Only the Golden State Warriors and the Boston Celtics have a better record than this team and that’s remarkable considering the injuries have had some effect on this team.
To break it down for you, our guys that we count on the most have missed a combined 36 games this season thus far. Chris Paul (17), Luc Mbah a Moute (17), James Harden (7) and Clint Capela (5) inadvertently contributed to that large chunk of games missed.
