The Warriors capped a monumental 2015 with one of their most rewarding regular season victories of the year, picking up a 114-110 road win over the Rockets on Thursday on the back end of a back-to-back. The Dubs bounced back from Wednesday’s disappointing defeat in a major way, and leading the way were some standout efforts up and down the roster.
Playing once again without Stephen Curry, Harrison Barnes and Festus Ezeli, the Warriors came together and played some brilliant team ball that resulted in 35 assists on 43 made baskets. Leading the way in the helper category was Draymond Green. The do-it-all forward had perhaps his signature game of the season, posting his NBA-leading fifth triple-double with 10 points, 11 rebounds and a career-high 16 assists.
Green’s final assist may have been the biggest play of the game. With the Rockets chipping away at what was a 12-point Warriors lead with 8:57 left in the fourth quarter, the versatile forward pulled down a rebound and passed the length of the court to a streaking Andre Iguodala, who finished with the easy layup. The shot put the Warriors back up by five, and it concluded a nearly two-and-a-half-minute stretch without a made bucket for the Dubs.
