The Brooklyn Nets (16 - 16) defeated the Orlando Magic (13 - 23) 100 - 98 on Friday at the Amway Center in Orlando. After a second and third quarter where the Nets combined to out - score the Magic 64 - 36, they entered the fourth riding a 25 - point lead. The Magic were n't done though, and went on a huge fourth quarter comeback, pulling all the way back to within two points. Their comeback effort came up just short though, as they just did n't have enough time to complete it. The Nets used superior shooting in this one, as they went 57 percent from the field compared to the Magic who went just 42 percent from the floor. The Nets continued to bring both Brook Lopez and Deron Williams off the bench, as they they both came in on a minutes restriction. Williams seemed to get a much longer run Friday, as he played 29 minutes compared to playing closer to 20 minutes the last four games. He cashed in on the extra time, going 5 - for - 10 from the field and 3 - for - 3 from the three - point line to score 16 points, while also handing out seven assists. Lopez on the other hand played just 17 minutes, but was very efficient with his time on the court and recorded 16 points (7 - 8 FG, 2 - 3 FT) and eight rebounds. He was placed in the starting lineup on Tuesday because of an injury to Kevin Garnett, but was reduced to a bench role again with his return. Mason Plumlee also had a strong game and continued to start at center. He went 9 - for - 10 from the field to score a team - high of 18 points, while also grabbing nine rebounds and adding two blocks. The Magic got help from all over the place, with seven players reaching double figures in points. Victor Oladipo led the team, going 7 - for - 13 from the field and 2 - for - 2 from beyond the arc to score 17 points. He's improved his scoring of late, and is now averaging 18 points per game over his last three outings. Rookie Elfrid Payton had one of his best games of his career thus far. He came just shy of his first ever triple - double, as he finished with 16 points, nine rebounds and 10 assists. The nine rebounds matched a season - high, while it was his second double - double of the year. Ben Gordon also gave a solid contribution off the bench. He went 5 - for - 9 from the field and 1 - for3 from the three - point line to score 14 points in 19 minutes. Tobias Harris and Nikola Vucevic had 12 and 10 points respectively. The Nets' next game will be on the road against the Miami Heat on Sunday, while the Magic will be at home against the Charlotte Hornets on Saturday.
