James Harden and the Houston Rockets rolled this week while setting an NBA record for attempts from beyond the arc. Against the Kings, the Rockets connected on 21 of their record 50 shots from three point land. This year’s squad has more depth and definitely more firepower, as evidenced by the 16 straight games in which they have made at least 10 threes.
The fireworks continued on the second game of their five game road trip as Houston lit up the Blazers for a decisive victory. In Portland, Harden dropped 38 points, 10 dimes, 2 steals, and 1 block.
