THE FACTS: The 76ers continued their torrid play at the Wells Fargo Center with a 74-69 victory over the reeling Orlando Magic Monday night. Andre Iguodala had 14 points, 11 rebounds and six assists, Evan Turner scored 12 points and the Sixers improved to 15-6 overall and 11-2 at home. They also snapped a maddening six-game home losing streak to the Magic. The final score was deceiving with some late points by the Magic when the game was well in hand.
Orlando scored 56 points on Jan. 23 against the Boston Celtics and managed just 69 -- 36 in the second half -- against a scrappy Sixers defense. Dwight Howard registered his 16th double-double with 17 points and 11 rebounds while Ryan Anderson contributed 14 points and a career-high 20 rebounds. But the Magic losing streak reached four as they fell to 12-9.
QUOTABLE: "That was a much-needed win for us here with what we have ahead of us this week."
-- Sixers coach Doug Collins.
THE STAT: The Sixers committed only seven turnovers. They continue to lead the league in fewest turnovers per game.
TURNING POINT: The Sixers elevated their level of play in the third quarter, especially on defense. They extended a 37-33 halftime lead to 58-42 at the end of the third thanks to a tenacious defensive effort and timely shooting. The Sixers out-hustled the Magic and the fans responded with a standing ovation.
HOT: Turner (4-for-7) and veteran center Tony Battie (3-for-5) gave the Sixers a nice lift with clutch shooting.
NOT: Magic guard J.J. Redick never found his rhythm in going 3-for-13. All three of his field goals were 3-pointers. He missed all 10 shots from inside the arc.
QUOTABLE II: "We're very happy with the win. We need to learn to keep the momentum going when we build a big lead."
-- Sixers forward Thaddeus Young.
FANTASY SPOTLIGHT: Iguodala continued his strong all-around play following Saturday's triple-double against the Detroit Pistons. This time, Iguodala had 14 points, 11 rebounds and six assists. He was a calming influence when the Sixers needed it most.
INSIDE THE ARENA: There was quite an enthusiastic crowd of 16,299 for Monday's matchup with the Magic. The fans have been anticipating this week for some time, which also includes games against the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday and Miami Heat on Friday. Sixers owner Joshua Harris watched the action from a front-row seat.
QUOTABLE III: "If we're not getting good pick-and-roll play, we're going to struggle."
-- Magic coach Stan Van Gundy.
GOOD MOVE: The Sixers attacked Howard and made him work on the defensive end. Elton Brand and Battie did a nice job of looking for their offense, despite Howard's presence in the middle.
BAD MOVE: Orlando's offense stalled in too many halfcourt sets. There wasn't nearly enough movement. When you're struggling for points, the ball has to move around the perimeter and go inside and out more often.
ROOKIE WATCH: All three Magic rookies didn't play -- guard DeAndre Liggins, forward Justin Harper and center Daniel Orton. Sixers forward Nikola Vucevic dressed after missing the past four games with a left knee quad strain. But he was not used. However, forward Lavoy Allen was scoreless in 16:46, though he did sweep five rebounds and added three assists.
