Nets-Magic Preview

The way the Orlando Magic responded from an unexpected day off may not bode well for the New Jersey Nets.

After an ensuing blowout victory allowed most of Orlando's starters to get even more rest, the Magic look to improve to 3-0 at the Amway Center and win their fifth straight at home against the Nets on Friday night.

Orlando (2-1) routed Minnesota 128-86 on Wednesday, setting a franchise record for points in a first half with 78. The big lead allowed the Magic to sit many of their starters, as Rashard Lewis led the team with 29 minutes.

The Magic were already fresh after their game against New York on Tuesday was postponed due to safety concerns at Madison Square Garden. They seemed rejuvenated by the unexpected down time, going 15 of 31 from 3-point range against the Timberwolves after hitting 12 of their previous 48 from beyond the arc.

Dwight Howard had 18 points, 16 rebounds and eight blocked shots while Vince Carter added 20 points and seven assists. It was Orlando's highest-scoring game since a 135-111 win over Indiana on Jan. 27, 2009.

"I told the guys after the game that we have to do this every night if we want to be a championship team," said Howard, who played 23 minutes. "We have to bring the same type of effort and energy every night."

Orlando also benefited from a lineup change. Ryan Anderson made his first start, with Rashard Lewis moving to small forward and Quentin Richardson coming off the bench. Anderson scored 19 points in 19 minutes and made 4 of 8 3-pointers, and he'll be in the starting lineup again Friday.

While Orlando knows it won't be able to put up those types of offensive numbers all season, it could have another big game against a New Jersey team that has struggled since beating Detroit and Sacramento to open 2010-11.

The Nets (2-2) fell 85-83 to Charlotte on Wednesday, three days after a 101-78 loss to Miami.

New Jersey led the Bobcats by 10, but allowed Charlotte to close the game on a 16-4 run. Nets forward Travis Outlaw missed two shots in the final 10 seconds and Brook Lopez missed a tip in.

Lopez finished with 17 points, six rebounds and five blocks while Devin Harris had 19 points and eight assists.

"We just have to learn to put teams away," said Harris, who had 10 points and three assists in the fourth quarter.

Harris spent the final 7:11 of the third quarter in the locker room and on the bench after hurting his shoulder. He came back in the fourth quarter after being diagnosed with a sprain but is questionable for Friday.

The point guard has struggled with injuries the last three seasons, playing fewer than 70 games in each. He is averaging 18.8 points and 8.3 assists in 2010-11.

After playing its first four games at home, New Jersey hits the road for two straight and seven of nine. The Nets were 4-37 away from home last season, ending the season on a 10-game road losing streak.

The Magic won all three matchups with the Nets last season. Three of Orlando's four consecutive home wins in the series have come by at least 16 points.

Howard carries Magic to 105-90 win over Nets

ORLANDO, Fla.(AP) Brook Lopez emerged in the New Jersey Nets locker room with a slight bruise under his right eye, a small memory from a night he'd rather soon forget.

The mark of Superman, indeed.

Dwight Howard had 30 points and 16 rebounds and swarmed Lopez defensively, leading the Orlando Magic to a 105-90 victory over the New Jersey Nets on Friday night.

Howard finished 9 for 13 shooting and once again proved why he's the NBA's twice reigning defensive player of the year. He bullied and bruised Lopez in the paint and handed the Nets center one of the worst offensive games of his young career, even giving him an ever-so small shiner.

"It didn't get there by itself," Lopez said.

Lopez missed his first 13 shots but finished with 10 points, most coming far too late to prevent New Jersey's third straight loss. Orlando has beaten the Nets four consecutive times.

"He probably just had an off night," Howard said, smiling.

That tends to happen a lot against Howard.

Jameer Nelson scored 20 points, Vince Carter had 19 points and the Magic went on a 17-4 run to go ahead by 20 points early in the fourth cruise to victory.

It was the tightest game the Magic have had all season - including the preseason, where they won all seven games by an average of almost 25 points. Even their lone loss to the Heat was a 26-point rout that was never close.

"We were winded," Howard said. "We haven't played that much since last season."

But Orlando's best work came on defense.

Howard had Lopez completely out of rhythm, swatting one shot, heaving up others off balance, fumbling the ball and throwing it away. Lopez finished 3 for 17 shooting.

About the only thing that kept it close was that backup Kris Humphries made his first five shots from the floor. And No. 3 overall pick Derrick Favors also had a pair of highlight dunks, including a one-handed slam over an outstretched Marcin Gortat, to help New Jersey go ahead 51-41 in the second quarter.

The Nets couldn't sustain the effort with their big man struggling.

Howard returned to the game and restored order, anchoring a Magic rally with some creative hooks and spin moves. They scored seven points in the final minute of the half to trim New Jersey's lead to 51-48.

"It showed their aggressiveness," Nets coach Avery Johnson said.

Howard was even more potent and powerful following the break, grabbing an alley-oop pass from Nelson for a dunk over Lopez. Howard continued to dominate New Jersey's front line, and Mickael Pietrus made three 3-pointers in the third quarter - sticking his tongue out and raising his arms up after the last one - to help Orlando go ahead 87-67 and all but finish off the Nets.

But it was Howard's defense that again carried Orlando.

"My expectations are for him to play like that every night," Magic coach Stan Van Gundy said. "I don't take it for granted, but I know it's not easy to do or for him to play like that every night. I know if he puts great energy and focus into the game, those kind of games are possible every night."

NOTES: Nelson turned his left ankle slightly in the final minutes. But he said he should be fine. ... R&B group Boyz II Men sang the national anthem before the game. ... Magic PF Ryan Anderson was acquired from New Jersey in 2009 but is still good friends with Lopez. Anderson said he didn't hear from Lopez when the Nets arrived Thursday night so he sent him a text message. "He says, 'Guess where I am?"' Anderson recalled. "And I said, 'You're at Disney World, aren't you?"' Correct. Anderson said Lopez is actually a huge theme-park fan and often comes to the Orlando-area attractions.

THE FACTS: Dwight Howard scored 30 points and grabbed 16 rebounds while shutting down New Jersey center Brook Lopez as the Orlando Magic came back from a 10-point deficit to beat the Nets 105-90 on Friday night. Mickael Pietrus came out of the Magic doghouse to contribute three 3-pointers and some tenacious defense for the Magic. Travis Outlaw led the Nets with 17 points on 7-for-8 shooting.

QUOTABLE: "In the first half, [the Nets] played with terrific energy, and we had to come out and match their energy or they were going to win the game."

-- Dwight Howard

THE STAT: The 15-point margin of victory was easily the smallest of the season for the Magic, who had won by 29 and 42 points and had lost by 26.

TURNING POINT: The Nets led 51-41late in the first half when Magic point guard Jameer Nelson drove for layups that turned the game around.

QUOTABLE II: "I truly appreciate being on the floor tonight, but I don't take anything for granted. I've been through a tough situation the last two days. I'm just happy to get a smile on my face and help our team win."

-- Mickael Pietrus, who had been openly unhappy about his playing time

HOT: Outlaw and Terrence Williams each shot 3-for-3 from behind the arc for New Jersey in the first half.

NOT: Lopez, who came into the game averaging a team-high 22.3 points, missed his first 13 shots and didn't score until the fourth quarter.

QUOTABLE III: "I definitely rushed my shots a lot. [Howard] got physical with me. I was trying to draw contact too much and draw fouls instead of going back to my game."

-- Brook Lopez

GOOD MOVE: Pietrus started the second half, providing a big part of the energy as the Magic took the lead.

ROOKIE WATCH: Nets forward Derrick Favors produced a highlight dunk, but only four points and one rebound in 17 minutes.

NOTABLE: Nelson turned his left ankle badly in the final minutes and was limping noticeably after the game.

UP NEXT: For the Nets, Saturday @ Miami, Tuesday vs. Cleveland, Wednesday @ Cleveland. For the Magic, Saturday @ Charlotte, Monday vs. Atlanta, Wednesday vs. Utah.
