Carter leads Nets past Magic
Basketball Betting Lines
04/11/2009 -
East Rutherford, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Vince Carter led the Nets with 27
points and nine assists, as New Jersey topped an uninspired Orlando Magic
club, 103-93.
"I just kind of wanted to set the tone of how we wanted to play these last
couple of games," Carter said. "We're bettering ourselves for next year,
gaining confidence."
Brook Lopez added 13 points and 11 rebounds for New Jersey, which had lost
eight of 10 coming in but shot a sizzling 54.3 percent from the floor. Keyon
Dooling chipped in 12 points and 10 helpers for the victors.
Hedo Turkoglu led the Magic with 16 points but was helped off the court in the
fourth quarter after rolling his left ankle. Mickael Pietrus and Tony Battie
notched 14 points each in the setback.
Dwight Howard was held to seven points and eight rebounds in 26 minutes of
action for Orlando, which dropped back-to-back games for just the third time
this season. The Magic now sit 2 1/2 games back of Boston for the No. 2 seed
in the East.
"I think the biggest thing is defense, we're not helping," Howard said. "We
have to do something about this. We have to get it going before the playoffs
start."
All Star's Devin Harris (shoulder) for New Jersey and Rashard Lewis (knee) for
Orlando sat out due to their respective ailments.
The Nets jumped out to a 28-24 lead after 12 minutes of action. Midway through
the second frame, consecutive three-pointers by Jarvis Hayes and Bobby Simmons
sparked a 10-0 flurry for the hosts that resulted in a 47-30 advantage.
Orlando's Rafer Alston hit a jumper to beat the halftime buzzer, but the Magic
were still looking at a 57-47 deficit at the break.
New Jersey continued to play frontrunner in the third, taking an 83-74 cushion
into the final stanza. After Turkoglu scored six straight points for Orlando
early in the fourth, Anthony Johnson made a jumper to pull the Magic within
87-82 at the eight-minute mark.
But Simmons nailed a three to spark an 8-0 stretch, during which time Turkoglu
went down with an injury. Another Simmons trey a little later made it 100-86
with four minutes left and it was a double-digit game the rest of the way.
Game Notes
Orlando will next visit Milwaukee on Monday, while closing out its regular
season Wednesday at home against Charlotte...New Jersey has games with
Charlotte and New York to close out its schedule...The Magic won the season
series, 2-1...Simmons and Josh Boone each had 11 points in the win.
