ok here are some stats, Defensive Rebounding, if a team can't rebound, then the other teams FG% might be lower b/c they know they can throw up and kind of shot, and have a good chance of getting the board. (spurs lead here, rockets 3rd). Also offensive rebounds allowed works with the same explination(rockets are 6th here).

Also TO forced per game(the rockets here rank 27th), Steals per game(rockets 19th)

need more, I can probarbly find a couple more

Let me explain to you what you just did. You went through all the stats to find ones where the Rockets were not in the top ten.

Those are the most overrated stats I have ever seen. People that create turnovers gamble and give up more points anyway.

You can't say that the most important stat is not points allowed per game. The Rockets are now second behind the Spurs, which I said earlier was the only team that was close to the Rockets.

actually i didnt sort through the stats the rockets didnt do well in, these are just the first stats to come up. Also no one stat can give a true measure of how good a teams defense is.

You gotta admit that even if you think that, points allowed per game is the closest you will get.
