    The Rockets rank third in the league in clutch defensive rating (97.8). That's a major reason the Rockets have the league's second-best clutch plus-minus (plus-64). -- Tim MacMahon

    So basically it means they can play defense if they want to they just choose not to for 3 quarters?

    Does anyone know why MDA continues to insist on an eight-man rotation?
