Game Story
OAKLAND, California (Ticker) -- The Orlando Magic woke up from
their funk in the opening stages of the fourth quarter, halting
a three-game losing streak with an 87-74 victory over the Golden
State Warriors.
Rookie Matt Harpring scored eight of his 14 points in the final
period, which Orlando opened with 10 straight points to break
open a game that was tight for three quarters. Harpring, who
made his first NBA start, began and ended that run with
3-pointers.
"They were doubling off my man, and when they did that, they
left me wide open so I just shot the ball," Harpring said.
"Luckily tonight, I was on, so I love it when they double off my
man."
"He stepped up, he can shoot the ball and he has no fear of
shooting it, thank God," said Orlando coach Chuck Daly.
Darrell Armstrong scored 16 points for the Magic, who built
their largest lead at 81-65 on Harpring's 18-footer with 6:02 to
play. Golden State got no closer than 10 points thereafter,
watching its seven-game home winning streak come to an end.
One week ago, the Magic had won four straight and were leading
the Eastern Conference with a 14-4 mark. They since had dropped
three in a row, including an embarrassing 93-76 loss in Dallas
on Thursday.
"I just felt I needed to play a little harder tonight. I felt
like we just needed some energy from all of us," Armstrong said.
"If I can get us going, they'll pick it up, and they did, which
was a big plus. I think our guys were ready to play."
Harpring was a late replacement in the starting lineup for Bo
Outlaw, who sat out with a left calf contusion. Outlaw and
fellow starters Horace Grant and Isaac Austin combined for only
16 points and 12 rebounds in Thursday's loss. The starting front
line of Harpring, Grant and Austin collected 38 points and 15
boards.
"I started off a little slow in the first half," Harpring added.
"I just wasn't relaxing out there, and I was kind of too
anxious, so I came in at halftime and regrouped. I just settled
down and let the game come to me, and things ended up working
out."
Erick Dampier had 17 points and 10 rebounds for the Warriors,
who were playing their third game in as many nights. They had
been riding their longest home winning streak since a 10-game
run from February 15-March 24, 1994.
"We've just got to start all over again," Dampier said. "We
didn't play the way we wanted to. We didn't knock down some
shots we wanted to. We just did a lot of things wrong tonight."
"We really feel comfortable at home, and we've got to get that
edge back," said Warriors forward Chris Mills. "We had a great
run, but tonight it came to an end. Hopefully, we can start a
new run."
Golden State scored the game's first eight points but Orlando
came back to pull within 21-19 at the end of the opening period.
Neither team took control in the second quarter and the game was
tied at halftime, 37-37.
The Magic never trailed after Harpring drilled a 3-pointer to
make it 49-47 with 6:24 left in the third. Terry Cummings made
a driving layup for the Warriors to tie it, 54-54, with 2:29
remaining, but Nick Anderson responded with a 3-pointer.
Grant and Austin scored 12 points apiece and Anferenee Hardaway
added 10 and 10 rebounds. Hardaway and Anderson, the starting
backcourt and top two scorers for the Magic, combined to go
7-of-29 from the field as Orlando shot only 36.5 percent
(31-of-85).
The Warriors' leading scorers were even worse. John Starks had
four points on 2-of-12 shooting and Mills, who grabbed 10
boards, made only 1-of-10 for three points. They were 0-for-8
from beyond the arc and Golden State missed all 11 of its
3-pointers.
"I think we can shoot 3-pointers, but I think it's a case of the
legs," Mills added. "You've gotta have legs to be able to shoot
from that deep. It seemed like nobody had the legs really going
tonight for our team."
The Magic committed only nine turnovers, which resulted in just
two points for the Warriors. Armstrong had six boards, six
assists and three steals as Orlando scored 20 points off 18
Golden State turnovers.
"Armstrong has always been an energizer. He's a terrific little
point guard," Daly added. "He's a real gamer, tough little kid,
nice player. Basically, we needed what he gave us to stay in
the game."
