BEIJING -- James Harden is quickly getting comfortable running his new coachs offense.Harden had 14 points and 8 assists in 24 minutes, leading the Houston Rockets to a 116-104 win over the New Orleans Pelicans in a preseason game Wednesday.The Rockets beat the Pelicans twice in China behind Hardens passing. He collected 15 assists in Sundays game in Shanghai. In Beijing, Harden greeted the crowd before the game with Nin hao! -- Chinese for hello! -- and looked at ease the rest of the game as the focal point of new coach Mike DAntonis system.Very comfortable, he told reporters afterward. My role really doesnt change. Just got the ball in my hands a little bit more.Houston built a 17-point lead after the first quarter and never relinquished it, though the Pelicans closed to within eight points in the fourth quarter.The Pelicans played most of the game without star Anthony Davis, who suffered what the team called a right ankle sprain in the first quarter. Davis fell to the court holding his ankle after appearing to trip while attempting to drive to the basket against Houstons Nene. After a timeout, he returned to the game briefly before heading to the locker room. Pelicans guard ETwaun Moore also left the game in the first half with a right heel contusion.Ryan Anderson had 11 points and 7 rebounds and Sam Dekker came off the bench to score 14 points for the Rockets. Montrezl Harrell scored 11 points, blocked two shots and made a 3-pointer from the corner in front of the Pelicans bench, after which he turned backward and smiled as he jogged back. Harrell missed his only three-point attempt during his rookie season but shot more threes during Summer League play this year.The Pelicans, meanwhile, missed several shots near the basket and made just 7 of 24 three-pointers.Four players scored in double figures off the bench: Quinn Cook had 20, Langston Galloway had 16 and Dante Cunningham and Cheick Diallo each had 12.Cook added eight assists in 21 minutes.You could see it in practice, Lance Stephenson said of Cook, who went undrafted last year out of Duke.
