Too early and too small a sample size to talk about all the stats, especially considering the fact that 2 of the 3 home losses are horribly officiated(Raptors and Grizzlies). However, I do agree that this team deserves and needs more home fans' supports. Rockets always have so many empty seats in the front rows even in the playoffs games, which is embarrassing. I know part of it is due to people arriving late, yet it's a bad look to the league as well as our players. Based on my impression, which I know is somewhat biased because I'm a Rockets' homer, our team tends to have a disadvantage as far as calls are concerned on home courts, let alone any kind of home court advantage. That's really hurting us. Kyrie is getting MVP chants on a few road games, but with Harden's performance this year thus far, none of our home fans is giving him this kind of appreciation.
Exactly none of your data supports the claim that arena attendence affects performance. Daniel Kahneman calls this heuristic the substitution effect. A better conclusion could be reached by measuring each players effectiveness at home and on the road. You'll notice one of our guys is significantly worse at home, and you'll also hopefully notice that it has nothing to do with how many people are in the stands.
Someone should write to Tilman to dim the lights around the arena. This city is disgraceful during the regular season. I don't fkn understand how people fill the seats at NRG to see that racist ass owner's team struggle weekly. It's bullshit.
Solution: Tilman and Morey need to do a statistical experiment involving which colors of paint and which arena elements cause the team to play best - and rebuild Toyota Center accordingly?
They getting paid to WIN. I ain't getting paid to go to no games or eat MEH food at some Landry's restaurant or Papas or whatever y'alls boy owns. NEXT.
I’ve already taken a statistics course several years ago and got an A. Turn on the game and I can get money 90% of TC will be empty to start the game
And you are either trolling or extremely stupid to try and form a correlation between the two. Last year, we were 30-11 at home for example.
