— -- HOUSTON -- The Houston Rockets set a trio of NBA 3-point records in a 122-100 win over the New Orleans Pelicans on Friday night.

Rockets set a record for three-pointers made (24) attempted in the half (31) and in a game (61).

A fourth quarter Ryan Anderson three set the mark for most threes in a game.

"We're just trying to take the right shots in the sense of either a three or a layup," coach Mike D'Antoni said. "Something has got to be there. A team has to choose. I really feel like we don't force many."
