Pistons defeat Magic in Game 1
Chauncey Billups scores 19 points in Detroit's 91-72 victory
ASSOCIATED PRESS
AUBURN HILLS, Mich.
— Hedo Turkoglu's uncontested dunk early in the second half gave the Orlando Magic their first lead. Less than a minute later, the Detroit Pistons took over.
Chauncey Billups had 19 points, seven assists and played a key role in the decisive run of the game, leading Detroit to a 91-72 win over Orlando on Saturday night in Game 1 of the second-round series.
Dwight Howard had a relatively quiet night with 12 points, eight rebounds and three blocks after being the first player since Wilt Chamberlain to score 20 points
and grab 20 rebounds in three playoff games since Wilt Chamberlain did it in 1972.
Howard played for much of the second half with blue tape wrapped around his left hand, seemingly to protect his thumb he injured after trying to grab a rebound.
After the Magic took their last lead with 10:08 left in the third quarter, Billups' layup capped an 8-0 run as Detroit started a 21-3 burst to take a 64-49 lead.
Orlando rallied to trail by just seven points entering the fourth despite making only 1-of-10 3-pointers and 7-of-16 free throws.
Jason Maxiell squashed any comeback hopes the Magic had.
Detroit's power forward, starting again for Antonio McDyess, scored 10 of his 12 points in the fourth quarter with surprising touch on jumpers and free throws.
The Pistons will play host to Game 2 Monday night.
NEW ORLEANS — David West scored a career playoff-high 30 points to lead the Hornets to a victory over the Spurs in Game 1 of their second-round playoff series.
HORNETS 101, SPURS 82
Chris Paul added 17 points, 13 assists and four steals for New Orleans, which trailed by as much
as 11 in the first half but stormed into the lead for good in the third quarter.
Tim Duncan had a rare terrible night, going 1-of-9 from the field for a career playoff-low five points and only three rebounds.
The Hornets swarmed Duncan with double teams throughout the game, forcing San Antonio to look for points from outside.
Tony Parker led the Spurs with 23 points and Manu Ginobili had 19. Bruce Bowen added 17 points and Michael Finley 13, but San Antonio needed more help inside from Duncan and Kurt Thomas, who had only two points and two rebounds.
MLB BRIEFS Royals pitcher breaks hand after punching door
CLEVELAND — Kansas City Royals left-hander John Bale, already on the disabled list due to a tight shoulder, broke his pitching hand punching a door at the team's hotel Friday night.
A club spokesman said Bale informed team officials he had pain in his hand after arriving at Progressive Field for Saturday night's game against Cleveland. Xrays were taken during the game, revealing the fracture on the side of his hand.
Bale returned to Kansas City Sunday morning. He will be examined by team doctors, possibly as early as Monday.
Ironically, Bale was making progress with his shoulder problem and it was hoped he would come off the DL in the next few days. He threw a simulated game Friday and was due to throw live batting practice early in the week. Following Friday's throwing session, manager Trey Hillman was optimistic Bale was close to being activated.
St. Louis Cardinals demote pitcher Anthony Reyes
ST. LOUIS — The St. Louis Cardinals optioned sputtering reliever Anthony Reyes, who has a 5.27 ERA in nine appearances, to Triple-A Memphis on Sunday.
The 26-year-old Reyes was considered one of the team's top pitching prospects after beating the Tigers in the 2006 World Series opener. But he was 2-14 with a 6.04 ERA last year and lost out for rotation spot in spring training. He began the year as a long man in the bullpen.
Reyes has been a starter throughout his career, making two relief appearances last season and three in 2006 when he first came up. He has a 1-1 record and has been scored upon in his last three outings, surrendering six runs and 10 hits in seven innings.
