On November 15th, the NBA regular season continues. The Rockets are currently in good momentum. They currently rank at the forefront of the league in many statistics. The US media even predicts that the Rockets will achieve a regular season record of 55 wins and 27 losses this season, saying that this will be the Rockets' best season in the past 10 years.

Rockets reporter Bradeaux took stock of multiple statistics and rankings of the Rockets' first 10 games this season. The details are as follows:

Record: 7 wins and 3 losses (5th in the league); Net efficiency: +11.0 (3rd); Offensive efficiency: 123.1 (1st).

Defensive efficiency: 112.1 (7th); three-point shooting percentage: 43.5% (1st); rebound rate: 56.4% (1st).

At the same time, the well-known media Clutch Points analyzed the Rockets' outstanding defensive end: When your team has players like Shen Jing and Durant, this may be difficult to imagine. However, because of the way the roster is constructed, the Rockets have a lot of long-armed players on the floor who can trouble opposing offensive players all game long. More than half of the players have wingspans of 7 feet (2.13 meters).

At the beginning of the season, their height advantage has already caused trouble for their opponents. The Rockets' defensive efficiency is 112.1 (7th in the league), 9.2 steals per game (9th in the league), 5.2 blocks per game (10th in the league), and 20.3 fouls per game (29th in the league). The Rockets are one of the few teams to make significant personnel changes this offseason. It is conceivable that once the chemical reaction is formed, their defense will become even more terrifying.

According to predictions by US media Kalshi, the Rockets are expected to achieve 55 wins (27 losses) in the regular season this season. US media wrote: "This will be their best season in the past ten years." It is worth mentioning that the Rockets had the best 65 wins and 17 losses in team history in the 2017-18 season, ranking first in the regular season, and eventually reaching the Western Conference Finals.
