NBA Roundup | Monday night’s games


Bobcats 109, Lakers 89

CHARLOTTE, N.C.

Gerald Wallace had 20 points and 11 rebounds and the Bobcats routed the Lakers to extend one of the more bizarre one-sided matchups in the NBA. Gerald Henderson added 18 points for the Bobcats, who have won eight of the past 10 meetings with the defending NBA champions. The Lakers have a winning record against every team except the Boston Celtics — and the Bobcats. And this time it wasn’t even close. Hawks 94, Pistons 79

AUBURN HILLS, MICH.

Josh Smith had 27 points and 14 rebounds and the Hawks rallied for a victory over the Pistons. Atlanta trailed by as many as 15 points in the second quarter but held the Pistons to 28 percent shooting in the second half as they pulled away to win.

Spurs 102, Nets 85

NEWARK, N.J.

Manu Ginobili scored 10 of his 22 points in a game-breaking second-half run and the Spurs put in another dominant performance with a victory over the Nets. Tim Duncan added 15 points and 11 rebounds, Tony Parker had 13 points, six rebounds and seven assists and DeJuan Blair had 10 points and 11 rebounds as the Spurs won for the ninth time in 11 games and 17th in 20.

MINNEAPOLIS

Wesley Matthews had 23 points while LaMarcus Aldridge added 21 to lead the Trail Blazers to a victory over the Timberwolves.

Bucks 102, Clippers 78

MILWAUKEE

Carlos Delfino scored 21 of his 26 points in the second half and made a career-high seven 3-pointers to lead the Bucks to a victory over the Clippers. Everyone pitched in for the short-handed Bucks, who came in losers of seven of the last eight.
