KEY GAME INFORMATION
HOUSTON: Everything the Rockets do offensively will continue to go through James Harden, who for all intents and purposes is their point guard. And he's a damn good one, arguably the most complete offensive guard in the league . . . Ty Lawson; like Harden, usually operates with the ball in his hands. The pairing can work, but Lawson might be better off anchoring Houston's hyper aggressive second unit . . . Houston could very well use Patrick Beverley in the starting lineup at times to take some of the defensive heat off Harden. The best guess is that he's close to an even split with Lawson at the point . . . Marcus T. Thornton gives them another aggressive, attacking perimeter player on the second unit. Trevor Ariza didn't shoot it well in his first year with Houston, but he does enough little things to make up for it . . . Terrence Jones will once again look to break through as more than a part-time player, but too often he's exposed as a tweener . . . Corey Brewer is perfect in Houston's scrambling, attacking second unit . . . He was having a solid season before back surgery, and Donatas Motiejunas could end up pushing Jones to the bench . . . K.J. McDaniels never got going in Houston due to a wrist injury, but he's a potentially nice 3-and-D guy . . . Clint Capela showed flashes as a rookie and can play the 4 and 5 . . . Rookies Sam Dekker and Montrezl Harrell are most likely ticketed for the D-League. The regular season will again be more of a warmup for Dwight Howard, who has been too fragile to play full-time minutes before the postseason. Look for him to pick up a handful of DNPs late in the year, and he will play fewer than 35 minutes more often than not. That said, he is still one of the league's few truly dominant big men.
DETROIT: Detroit's offense will be built around Reggie Jackson. He put up monster numbers in Detroit last year . . . Brandon Jennings likely won't be 100% when he returns in late December from a ruptured achilles. Van Gundy has said he'll play Jackson and Jennings together, but that seems like a disaster . . . Kentavious Caldwell-Pope figures to see plenty of minutes while Jennings works his way back. He failed to impress as a starter last season . . . After a disappointing first year in Detroit, Jodie Meeks will have to battle for a rotation spot . . . Spencer Dinwiddie will continue to make the transition to point guard . . . Darrun Hilliard is a solid catch-and-shoot player who could break the rotation in a year or two . . . Reggie Bullock needs to knock down shots if he's going to stay in the NBA.Van Gundy is putting together elements of his old Magic team; Ersan Ilyasova is the kind of floor-spacing power forward he wants around Andre Drummond . . . He's raw, especially on the offensive end, but Stanley Johnson is an explosive athlete on the wing and a tenacious competitor. He'll contribute big time as a rookie . . . Marcus Morris could push Ilyasova for minutes. He's another guy who can play the 4 but step out and knock down threes . . . Anthony Tolliver is still sticking around as a veteran presence off the bench. He's mostly 'locker room guy' at this point . . . Cartier Martin will play out his contact at the end of the bench.Andre Drummond is Van Gundy's new Dwight Howard. He will anchor the paint and the boards on both sides of the court . . . Aron Baynes comes over from San Antonio as a prototypical bruiser off the bench . . . Joel Anthony gives them another veteran defensive presence behind Drummond.
PREVIEW
Rockets-Pistons Preview
By JEFF BARTL STATS Senior Writer

Whether or not there was a rift between James Harden and former Houston coach Kevin McHale, Harden seemed to take it upon himself to will the Rockets to victory even more so once interim boss J.B. Bickerstaff took over.

He finally found out how nice it can be when he gets some help from his teammates.

The Rockets seek a third consecutive victory when they visit the slumping Detroit Pistons on Monday night.

Harden averaged 27.3 points but shot just 37.2 percent during Houston's 4-7 start before McHale was fired Nov. 18, ending a reportedly contentious relationship and leading to McHale's wife taking jabs at Harden through social media.

It didn't take long for Harden to move on, scoring 45 points in a win over Portland hours after McHale was let go. It was the first of three 40-point performances during the Rockets' 3-3 stretch that includes a 50-point effort in Friday's 116-114 win over Philadelphia.

Harden, averaging 34.5 points and shooting 44.6 percent under Bickerstaff, had an off night Sunday, going 10 of 28 from the field and missing all seven 3-point attempts while scoring 26.

Four others scored in double figures, though, to help Houston (7-10) beat New York 116-111 in overtime. The Rockets trailed by 14 in the fourth quarter, but Marcus Thornton hit a 3-pointer with 32 seconds left in regulation to help Houston get it to the extra session.

Thornton and Clint Capela (11 rebounds) scored 18 points apiece while Trevor Ariza added 16 and Dwight Howard finished with 14.

It marked Harden's lowest point total in a Houston victory.

''It was a lesson in perseverance,'' Bickerstaff said. ''We got down, but we didn't give in. It is a credit to our guys' mental toughness and fortitude.''

Houston has won eight of the last nine meetings with Detroit after Harden finished with 38 points, 12 rebounds and 12 assists in a 103-93 victory March 6.

The Pistons (8-9) head into this meeting having lost four of five after falling 87-83 at Brooklyn on Sunday. They've been woeful offensively over their last four, shooting 36.1 percent after making 34 of 101 from the field against the Nets.

That performance dropped Detroit to the bottom of the NBA in field-goal percentage at 40.8. Andre Drummond had his 15th double-double with 20 points and 18 rebounds, while Kentavious Caldwell-Pope finished with 21 points.

Reggie Jackson finished 4 of 20 from the field.

''I think what it really came down to is we were mentally very weak,'' coach Stan Van Gundy said. ''We got very frustrated, you know, missing shots, thinking we're getting fouled. It affected our defense. I thought we took several bad shots in the fourth quarter just trying to draw fouls instead of trying to get good shots. I just didn't think we played very smart, poised basketball and that was disappointing.''

The Pistons have fallen off since a 5-1 start as they continue to play without guard Brandon Jennings, who is still recovering from a torn left Achilles suffered in January.

''I like the guys we have. I like the character of our team. I like the fit of our team," Van Gundy said. "We've just got to keep working to improve on both ends and gain experience, both together and individually.''
