Thankfully there aren't back-to-back games in the playoffs.

They likely weren't physically tired. B2Bs can be mentally tiring especially for a really young group.

 

It is not the b2b that lost the game, it is the defense. There was no defense whatsoever.

 

Rocket played 21 games with 0 days rest.

6-15 is correct record.

 

I saw a while back that the percentage is 42.5% for teams on second game of B2B. Rockets should be about 10-11 if B2Bs affected them like the average team. Basically, the Rockets would be the 6th seed.

 

Yeah, 6-15 is correct. We're 3-3 if the second game of the B2B is in Houston. 3-12 if the second game is anywhere else. Our seven game losing streak was actually at the end of 5 B2Bs in a row (winning the first 3 games, losing the last 7).

 

Speaking of B2B, Jeremy has played the last two back-end-of-B2B games (last night and the Denver game) with pretty good energy, comparing to earlier in the season. I think his stagmina has improved a lot. He no longer looks dead tired after 5 minutes of play.

 

Nope - go ahead and double check.

If you use player split it tells you how many 0 rest games they played. I used Asik because he hasn't missed a game all year.
