    • Longest streak (7 games) of 11 or less turnovers, and
    • Fewest turnovers over 7 games. 9, 8, 11, 9, 11, 9, 6 = 63 Total TOs = 9.0 TOs/gm.

    Yes, you are reading that table correctly: Rockets never had a streak longer than 3 games until 2001, when Rudy went slowdown Cat/Moochie ISO due to Francis' prolonged injury as we lost 15 games in a row.

    The threes are falling, the defense has picked up and the turnovers are down?!?!

    This stat right here is the reason we got CP3. He alleviates so much of the pressure Harden had to deal with the last couple years. Now we get a fresher Harden late in games and it's made a world of a difference.

    Last year we had a 4 TO game, which tied the franchise record (done two times). And we had a 6 TO game, as well.

    But this feels very real and sustainable, doesn't it?

    I mean, not only 7 in a row (in wins, no less), but lowest TO total over 7 games.
