Despite taking the court without the injured James Harden for fourth-straight time, the Houston Rockets earned a 116-107 road victory over the Chicago Bulls on Monday night.Houston’s starting backcourt duo of Chris Paul and Eric Gordon guided the team to the win while newly-signed reserve Gerald Green provided a spark off the bench.Paul had 24 points on 8-of-17 shooting along with eight rebounds, nine assists, two steals and a block in 36 minutes. Gordon went 8-of-18 from the floor for 24 points to go along with six boards, nine dimes and a steal in 38 minutes while Green added 22 points on 8-of-15 shooting with three rebounds over 26 minutes.Per usual, the Rockets lived from beyond the arc, knocking down 20-of-54 shots from three-point range in the victory. In fact, they attempted more three-pointers (54) than two-pointers (32) in the game by a wide margin.It was the 35th-straight game that Houston made 10-or-more three-pointers.That has never been done before in the history of the NBA.According to Nick Friedell of ESPN, the Rockets also own the Association's second-longest streak of such games. Last season, they went 27-straight games with double-digit made threes.Via ESPN Stats & Information, Monday was the 13th time this season in which Houston converted 10 or more threes by halftime. To put that into perspective, the Minnesota Timberwolves, Milwaukee Bucks and New York Knicks haven’t had 13 games with double-digit three pointers all season as of Monday night.

Houston’s rare offensive approach came directly from head coach Mike D’Antoni's mind. Over the years, he has proven to be one of the most radical thinkers on the offensive end of the court. Now, he has fully committed his team to live or die from deep. As of Monday night, the Rockets lead the NBA by a wide margin in both made three pointers per game (15.8, 3.5 over the second-place Cleveland Cavaliers) and attempted threes per contest (42.8, 9.1 over the second-place Brooklyn Nets).

Although the Rockets rank 13th in the league in three-point percentage, converting 36.9 percent of their looks from beyond the arc, the sheer volume and pace that they play at makes them one of the most dangerous offensive squads in the NBA. A commitment to the deep ball means that they can erase any deficit quickly, extend leads in the blink of an eye and force other teams to adapt on a nightly basis.

They’ll go for their 36th-straight double-digit three-pointer game on Wednesday when they host the Portland Trail Blazers.
