Rockets extend NBA mark for most consecutive games with 10-plus 3s

CHICAGO -- The Houston Rockets extended an NBA record on Monday night, making 10 or more three pointers for the 35th consecutive game.

The Rockets, who finished 20-for-54 from beyond the arc in their 116-107 victory over the Chicago Bulls, also own the second longest streak in league history, when they knocked down 10 or more three pointers in 27 straight games last season. Both stretches have come under Rockets head coach Mike D'Antoni, who employs a high paced offense that loves to push the pace.

The Rockets had 10 first-half three pointers, their 13th game this season with 10 three-pointers before halftime, according to ESPN Stats & Information.
