Green continues stunning surge, but Warriors show too much firepower

Description:

Gerald Green scored 29 points (8-of-15 on 3s) off the bench, while Chris Paul (28 points, 9 assists, 7 rebounds) and Eric Gordon (30 points, 7 assists) were breathtaking as Houston's starting backcourt. But led by 57 combined points from Steph Curry and Klay Thompson, the Warriors (31-8) simply had too much firepower and eventually pulled away from the Rockets (27-10) in a 124-114 victory at Toyota Center in Houston.

As expected, James Harden (hamstring) was out for the Rockets, while Kevin Durant (calf) sat out for the Warriors.

Thursday's postgame show explores the Warriors' offensive dominance and why the injury to Luc Mbah a Moute (dislocated shoulder) and the recent ineffectiveness of P.J. Tucker put the Rockets in a quandary when it comes to matching up with Golden State on the defensive end.

The show also touches on the postgame report from ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski that the Rockets plan to sign Green to a guaranteed contract for the remainder of the season, as well as the potential implications it could have for the remainder of the rotation — including Tucker, Mbah a Moute, and the struggling Ryan Anderson.
