HOUSTON -- James Harden blamed the added suspense on Rockets coach Mike DAntoni.Harden made a free throw with 0.1 seconds left, lifting the Rockets over the Dallas Mavericks 93-92 in their home opener Sunday night.Harden put extra pressure on himself by missing the first of two foul shots after being fouled by Wesley Matthews on a driving layup at the buzzer with the game tied.Coach messed me up, man -- he said, `Make the first one and miss the second one, and I did the opposite, Harden said with a smile. Im just happy I made it and we came away with the win.Harden led Houston with 28 points, seven rebounds and seven assists, edging Matthews in a gutsy back-and-forth.After trailing by 10 entering the fourth quarter, Dallas tied it at 92 on a 3-pointer by Matthews with 4.1 seconds remaining.DAntoni was pleased with the execution on the play that won the game. Nene received the inbound pass and found a cutting Harden with a crisp bounce pass before Matthews drew his sixth foul.Thats what he does, DAntoni said. Thats why hes one of the best, and hes just so good at drawing fouls and getting in the lane.Matthews led Dallas with 25 points and J.J. Barea scored 18 points off the bench. In falling to the Rockets for the second time in three days, the Mavericks fell to 0-3 for the first time since 2011-12, the lockout-shortened season following their title.We gave ourselves a chance, and it comes down to the one play and the whistle, Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle said. Were up against it right now in a lot of ways, but no ones backing down. Weve just got to find a way.Dallas was without Dirk Nowitzki (illness, sore Achilles tendon) for a second straight game. Nowitzki participated in pregame warmups but was a late scratch.Our margin for error is so slim, Matthews said. Were not the Golden State Warriors, were not the Cleveland Cavaliers, were not the Spurs, but were a ... good team. So weve got to minimize the stuff that we can control.Houston got strong performances from offseason additions Eric Gordon, Ryan Anderson and Nene in their home debuts. Gordon had 14 points, Anderson had 14 points and 12 rebounds and Nene had 11 points.The Rockets capped the first and second quarters with points at the buzzer. To end the first, Corey Brewer hit a 3-pointer from 30 feet out. Harden ended the second quarter on a driving layup to put the Rockets up 63-53.Late in the third quarter, Houstons Trevor Ariza and Dallas Salah Mejri received double-technical fouls after both players fell to the floor and were tangled for a few seconds. Ariza clinched his fists before he was restrained by players.TIP-INSMavericks: Without Nowitzki, Dallas was frequently undersized but managed to hold their own in the rebounding category, with Houston edging the Mavericks 46-42. ...

LOS ANGELES -- The Montreal Canadiens will continue their annual trek through California when they face the Los Angeles Kings at Staples Center on Sunday afternoon. Though the temperatures are warmer than back home in their native Quebec, the reception from their hosts has been ice cold.Montreal (16-6-2) sits atop the Atlantic Division thanks to its superior 12-1-1 record at home. Its 1-0 loss at San Jose on Friday dropped their road record below .500 (4-5-1).The road through California has been especially rough with Montreal posting a 1-8-2 record in the last 11 games against the California teams (San Jose, Anaheim and Los Angeles). The Canadiens have struggled to find their offense in the first three games of this road trip, posting only five goals in three games and wasting two strong performances by goaltender Carey Price.You just have to keep grinding, said Price after suffering his third regulation loss in 17 games. You just have to keep working and hopefully our fortunes will turn for the rest of the trip.The challenge for Montreal is the contrast of styles posed by Los Angeles. The Canadiens speed game was successful in a 4-1 win over the Kings on Nov. 10, but they have been worn down by both the Ducks and Sharks in consecutive losses. In order to break their losing streak and sweep the season series against the Kings, the Canadiens know they must control the tempo.Weve gotten away from our game, defenseman Jeff Petry told the Montreal Gazette prior to the San Jose loss. We were using our speed then we got away from that. Its something that we need to learn from because if we use our speed, were a tough team to handle.The Kings (13-10-1) will look to avenge last months loss at Montreal with continuing strong play on home ice. They enter the game with a 9-3-0 home recordd and appear to have found their stride after an inconsistent opening month.dddddddddddd A 4-3 win in Arizona on Thursday was the sixth in seven games for the Kings, who trail the division-leading San Jose Sharks by four points with a game in hand.After being besieged with injuries to start the season, Los Angeles depth is bolstered by the return of two key players and better health by one of its stars. Left winger Marian Gaborik missed the seasons first 20 games with a broken foot. Goaltender Jeff Zatkoff, plagued by groin injuries that limited him to just five appearances, earned his first win as a King in the Arizona victory.Anze Kopitar put up his first multi-point game since missing five games with a wrist injury, registering two assists in the Arizona win.Zatkoff was thought to be the starter after Jonathan Quick was sidelined with a serious groin injury but Peter Budaj was anointed by coach Darryl Sutter with Zatkoffs health issues. Budaj had appeared in 22 consecutive games before being relieved by Zatkoff after the first period in Arizona.Not playing eats away at you in the sense that you want to play, you want to contribute to the team and you want to be a piece of the puzzle, Zatkoff said. I feel really comfortable with my game and I just want to keep building on it.If Los Angeles creates enough offense to split the season series, it will likely do it without help from its special teams. Despite having a star-studded lineup and one of the best home records in the league, the Kings power-play production at home has been virtually non-existent, converting on 3 of 26 chances to tie them with the New York Islanders for 28th place in the NHL.
