HOUSTON -- With the Utah Jazz attempting a late comeback, James Harden casually tossed an alley-oop to Clint Capela from just inside the halfcourt line for a thunderous dunk.Harden had 31 points and 10 assists, and Capela scored a career-high 20 points to lead the Houston Rockets to a 111-102 victory over the Jazz on Saturday.I knew where he was going to be, Harden said of the pass. Thats the kind of chemistry were trying to build, to knowing where guys are going to be at so everything works easy and its fluent.Eric Gordon added 20 points and fellow reserve Nene added a season-high 16 as the Rockets won for the third time in their last four games and improved to 4-1 at home.Rockets coach Mike DAntoni said Capela is growing more comfortable and confident on the floor every game.He had a monster game, and I dont think he did anything that he cant keep repeating, DAntoni said. As long as he runs the floor and screens and rolls, we have guys that will find him.The injury-plagued Jazz dropped their third straight game following a 6-2 start to November. Besides Gordon Hayward, the four other Jazz starters had a combined seven years of NBA experience.Rodney Hood led Utah with 25 points and Trey Lyles had 21. Rudy Gobert added 12 points, 14 rebounds and four blocks.Harden shook defender Dante Exum and buried a 3-pointer with less than a minute remaining to give Houston an 11-point lead and put away the game for good.Jazz coach Quin Snyder said Harden is doing everything, and seems to be a great match with DAntoni.Clearly, he has taken it upon himself to help them execute the way coach DAntoni wants, Snyder said. They are very, very good.The Rockets took advantage of Utahs smaller lineup by outscoring Utah 52-46 in the paint and shying away from the 3-point line a little more than usual. Houston entered the game leading the league with 13.7 3-pointers made and 36.5 3-pointers attempted per game (37.4 percent), but made 12 of 32 against Utah.I think we were flat on both ends in the first half, Gobert said. We did not attack them on the offensive end and had too many mistakes on the defensive end.Houston led 55-44 at the half and maintained the 11-point lead through the third quarter, entering the fourth with an 81-70 lead.TIP-INSJazz: Lyles started in place of veteran Boris Diaw (rest) ahead of the teams trip to Denver on Sunday, Utahs fourth back-to-back of the season. ... Derrick Favors missed his second straight game with a left knee bone contusion, while George Hill (sprained right thumb) missed his seventh straight game.Rockets: Backup PF Montrezl Harrell was out with a left calf contusion. ... Harden passed Robert Reid (8,823 points) for seventh on the franchises career scoring list. ... Patrick Beverley had five points, six assists and three steals.REVENGE REMATCHCapela recalled playing against Gobert in France and being overwhelmed by his talent as a 16-year-old just getting into basketball. Gobert, 24, is two years older than Capela, 22, who got a late start at the sport. The two conversed in French throughout Saturdays game, with Gobert even sending Capela a friendly warning at one point.He told me to never try to dunk on him again, Capela said with a grin. I just told him, `Next time I go to dunk, just get out of the way.MAD MAXAs part of the ongoing celebration of the franchises 50th season, the Rockets honored former shooting guard Vernon Maxwell after the third quarter with a video tribute. Maxwell, who played on both of Houstons championship seasons in 1993-94 and 1994-95, was given a standing ovation following the video.ZERO TURNOVERSHarden became the first Rockets player since Sleepy Floyd in Orlando on April 8, 1990, to have at least 30 points, 10 assists and zero turnovers. Prior to Saturday, the last Rocket to record at least 10 assists without a turnover was Jeremy Lin at Golden State on Feb. 2, 2013.UP NEXTJazz: Travel to Detroit on Monday night.Rockets: Visit Denver on Sunday night. Just one victory away from clinching a spot in the AFC playoffs, the Kansas City Chiefs host the Tennessee Titans on Sunday at Arrowhead Stadium.Early weather predictions call for temperatures in the low teens with the wind-chill factor falling into single digits. Thats cold conditions for even Kansas City in December.The 10-3 Chiefs moved into the control seat of the AFC West with their victory last week over Oakland in similar conditions. Head coach Andy Reids team can assure itself of at least a spot in the six-team postseason field with one more victory in the remaining three games.Every game is important as you go down the stretch, Reid said. Nothing has been declared yet, so youve got to keep the pedal to the metal.The 7-6 Titans will arrive in Kansas City with their postseason chances still alive. They share first place in the AFC South with the Houston Texans. Tennessee is coming off a 13-10 victory over Denver on Sunday in Nashville.The man that leads the offense says the Titans will have quite a task dealing with the Chiefs defense at Arrowhead and in the cold.I think they have a great defense, quarterback Marcus Mariota said. They have a bunch of playmakers across the board. They find ways to get turnovers and when they do, theyre really good at turning it into points. Up front they do a great job of doing different things, causing some identification problems and just doing things in terms of communication for an offense. You have to make sure everyones on the same page and doing the same thing.Mariota comes off his least productive performance of the 2016 season last Sunday against Denver. He threw for only 88 yards, completing just six of 20 passes, a completion percentage of 30 percent and an average of 4.4 yards per attempt.That doesnt jive with his play in November, when he was named the AFCs Offensive Player of the Month with 11 scoring throws, two interceptions, a completion percentage of 66 percent and an average of 8.7 yards per attempt.Reid has been very impressed by Mariotas overall performance this year.His ability to throw the football and read the defenses have come a long ways, Reid said..dddddddddddd Things have slowed down for him. The addition of the run game has also helped their football team. You can see that hes more comfortable now then he was when he first came in. Hes healthy now too, which helps.Kansas City is coming off a mini-bye after winning last Thursday night. That 21-13 victory over the Raiders was the third for the Chiefs in 12 days, with two of those on the road -- including a 75-minute overtime decision against Denver. That was three victories by a total of 12 points.It was a gritty, gritty performance, Reid said. Thats a tough thing to do with that many games in that short period of time and to play at a high level against really good football teams. I think credit is due there.But in the NFL, thats considered old news and promises nothing for the coming Sunday.The games just get bigger every week when you are in this situation, Kansas City quarterback Alex Smith said. Its so close right now, you cant start counting the games and doing the math. You cant let yourself go there. We have a team coming in thats really playing good and we have to take care of our business.For another victory, the Chiefs defense must handle a strong Titans running game that put up 180 yards against the highly ranked Denver defense. Tennessee is also the NFLs top offense in the red zone, scoring touchdowns on 71.4 percent of its 42 trips inside the 20-yard line. The Titans are the fourth-best third-down offense, converting 46 percent of their chances.In the seasons first 13 games, head coach Mike Mularkeys team has been in the mix for victory every week. Tennessee has not lost by double digits, and it has won four games that were decided by six points or less. The Titans also are 3-3 on the road.Every one of these games, weve had a chance to win, Mularkey said. Theyve all been close. Weve won some of them. Weve lost some of the close ones. I think the experience has been great for (the players.) Our guys believe were going to win the game, no matter what the situation is.
