KEY GAME INFORMATION

DALLAS: BACKCOURT: Point guards Deron Williams, Devin Harris and J.J. Barea have lived 97 years of life between the three of them, so expect plenty of responsible decision-making on the court and very few fast breaks. Williams' health is critical to the Mavericks' success, and easing off the mid-range jumpers wouldn't hurt. SG Wes Matthews was visibly less athletic last season than he once was, but a return to pre-injury form still isn't out of the question. . . . FRONTCOURT: PF Dirk Nowitzki's adapted old man game is as good as they come, guaranteeing him further success for the near future. The questions in the frontcourt are all regarding offseason acquisitions from Golden State. SF Harrison Barnes will either benefit from a lower-pressure situation or crumble under the expectations of an increased role. C Andrew Bogut will be reliable if he's on the court. The question is whether he can stay there. . . . BOTTOM LINE: Rick Carlisle is one of the best coaches in the NBA, and he frequently has his teams exceeding expectations. The veteran roster offers many mentors for Barnes, meaning he has both the talent and resources to succeed.

HOUSTON: BACKCOURT: SG James Harden will again be the lead ball handler for the Rockets, and the coaching of Mike D'Antoni means he'll have even more opportunities to score than before. For many, he's an easy preseason favorite for MVP. New SG Eric Gordon has never fulfilled his potential, but, if healthy, can spread the floor both alongside Harden and for a bench unit. . . . FRONTCOURT: C Dwight Howard's departure leaves the Rockets bereft of rim protection and rebounding, but opens up greater possibilities on offense. C Clint Capela and C Nene will fill his shoes in the post. Like Gordon, offseason acquisition PF Ryan Anderson will improve the team's spacing. SFs Trevor Ariza and Corey Brewer are both solid defenders who can shoot, although Ariza looked like he may have lost a step last season. . . . BOTTOM LINE: D'Antoni's arrival and Howard's exit indicate that the Rockets will feature a fun, faster-paced offense that Harden should thrive in. But some bad defenders will have to play not-bad defense if Houston is to thrive.

PREVIEW

Beverley improves Rockets' chances against Mavs

HOUSTON -- Patrick Beverley was front and center in the waning moments of Houston's 102-99 victory over Oklahoma City on Friday night, defending Thunder guard Russell Westbrook with vigor as the Rockets clutched a one-possession lead.

For those aware of the value that Beverley brings to the Rockets (16-7) as a tenacious defender and reliable 3-point shooter, his impact on their turnaround isn't a surprise. However, how well Houston has performed since Beverley returned from preseason knee surgery is noteworthy after the Rockets improved to 10-2 with him.

"Pat has contributed in so many ways," said coach Mike D'Antoni, whose will lead the Rockets against the visiting Dallas Mavericks on Saturday night at Toyota Center.

"He's just good. That's a winning spirit and the ripple effect of what he does with his energy just in the locker room before games, after games, on the bus. Whatever it is, it's all about winning.

"I wish we had him all year now. I'm ticked off that he was hurt."

Despite being unable to find his shot (1 of 8 from the floor) and occasionally struggling to defend without fouling (five personal fouls), Beverley made a positive impact even before harassing Westbrook into errant shots inside the final minute. He finished with two steals, five assists and 12 rebounds, four on the offensive end.

He entered Friday second on the team to center Clint Capela in defensive box plus/minus, and his 35.9 percent 3-point shooting is good enough to deliver as at best a tertiary perimeter option. His 4.7 assists per game represent a career high.

But Beverley helped the Rockets win for the seventh time in eight games by forcing Westbrook into an air ball in the closing seconds. It was a routine, game-saving play.

"Pat's defense was tremendous, ridiculous," Rockets forward Ryan Anderson said. "He's so valuable to this team just from plays like that. That was huge."

For one game at least, the Mavericks (5-17) found the inspiration necessary to parlay their postgame team meeting on Wednesday night into something substantive. Despite missing forward Dirk Nowitzki (right Achilles), guard J.J. Barea (left calf) and center Andrew Bogut (right knee), Dallas exacted a measure of revenge against the Indiana Pacers with a 111-103 home victory on Friday night. The Mavericks dropped their season opener in Indianapolis.

Dallas suffered a 31-point walloping against the Kings on Wednesday, prompting an impromptu locker room meeting after the loss. The Mavericks remain in last place in the Western Conference, but their energy and effort, lacking against the Kings, were present and accounted for with Indiana paying a visit.

Until the Mavericks, 0-2 against the Rockets this season, are made whole again, their intensity and execution must carry them. That truth was underscored Friday.

"We just wanted to come out and compete," Mavericks forward Dorian Finney-Smith said. "We felt like we left a lot out there on the court the other night. We had a good practice and we tried to come out and give it our all and let the chips fall."
