NBA ROUNDUP TUESDAY'S OTHER GAMES



76ers 109, Kings 103
PHILADELPHIA -- Allen Iverson scored 41 points and Chris Webber had 17 points and 13 rebounds, leading Philadelphia over undermanned Sacramento. The Kings were without Peja Stojakovic because he stayed back at the hotel after the team reportedly agreed to send him to Indiana for Ron Artest earlier in the day. However, the trade fell through, though Artest left open the possibility that something could still happen. Mike Bibby had a career-high 44 points and Kevin Martin added 20 as the Kings lost their third straight game. Sacramento has won at least 55 games in four straight seasons, but is last in the Pacific Division.
Magic 111, Suns 102
ORLANDO, Fla. -- Hedo Turkoglu scored 30 points and Orlando limited Phoenix to just one basket in final 4:48. Dwight Howard added 22 points and 12 rebounds for the Magic, who matched their season-high with a fourth consecutive victory. Steve Francis had 15 points and six assists. Shawn Marion led Phoenix with 26 points and 16 rebounds.
Heat 94, Grizzlies 82
MIAMI -- Dwyane Wade scored 18 of his 25 points in the second half, helping Miami pull away from Memphis. Shaquille O'Neal had 20 points and 15 rebounds in only 30 minutes for Miami, which won its 51st consecutive home game when leading after three quarters. Former Memphis guard Jason Williams added 14 points and six assists for the Heat, who have won two straight. Bobby Jackson had a season-high 22 points for Memphis, which also got 12 from Shane Battier and Mike Miller. Pau Gasol added 11 for the Grizzlies.
Pistons 107, Timberwolves 83
MINNEAPOLIS -- Chauncey Billups beat his old team by five points in the third quarter, leading Detroit to a win and giving Pistons coach Flip Saunders a satisfying return to Minnesota. Billups finished with 27 points, eight assists and seven rebounds after outscoring the Timberwolves 18-13 by himself in the third. Antonio McDyess had 16 points, and Tayshaun Prince and Rasheed Wallace each had 15 points for the Pistons (34-5), who won their eighth straight game. Kevin Garnett had 21 points and 10 rebounds for Minnesota (19-20).
Spurs 104, Bobcats 76
SAN ANTONIO -- Beno Udrih had season highs of 17 points and eight assists, and Tim Duncan had 14 points and nine rebounds to lead San Antonio over injury-plagued Charlotte. Brent Barry scored 12 points and Fabricio Oberto added 10 for the Spurs. Jumaine Jones had 15 points and nine rebounds, and Primoz Brezec added 13 points on 6-for-12 shooting for the Bobcats, who lost their eighth straight game. Charlotte, missing three key starters, shot just 40 percent from the floor (32-for-80).
