ORLANDO DEMOLISHES DALLAS FOR THIRD STRAIGHT WIN

VIDEO HIGHLIGHTS: Happel puts on a show in Dallas, skying for 2 big dunks

Dallas, TX (AP) - Everything is bigger in Texas - including the blowouts. The Magic dominated the Mavericks in just about every way possible en route to a 116-72 victory on the road. It really started from the opening tip. Orlando scored the first 5 points and never looked back from there. It was the three-point shot that really sparked the Magic offense in that first quarter. Orlando connected on 5-11 from long distance, including 4 deep bombs from point guard Gilbert Arenas. "I've just been looking more for my shot," said Arenas in the post game interview, "Coach told me I was being too passive. The assists are nice, but he wants me to find my shots, too."

Arenas finished with 27 points on 10-17 shooting, including 6-10 from behind the three-point arc. Orlando swingman Brian Happel also had a monster game. He poured in 31 points and grabbed a season-high 17 rebounds. Andray Blatche did a tremendous job down around the blocks. Blatche dumped in 24 points and pulled down 12 rebounds. He also shot the ball well, hitting on 12 of his 16 shots. Shooting Guard Stephen Jackson struggled for the second straight game, only getting 4 points on 2-9 shooting. He missed on all 4 3-point attempts. Marcin Gortat was a bright spot off the bench, scoring 8 points and collecting three boards in 16 minutes.

Dunking on Dirk - Happel taking it strong to the bucket

Vince Carter had a stellar outing against his former team, putting up 27 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists. Unfortunately for the Mavericks, nobody else really stepped up. Dirk Nowitzki practically disappeared, shooting just 5-15 from the field and scoring just 12 points. Dirk wasn't alone in the poor shooting display. Dallas made just 35% of its shots for the game, including just 31% in the second half, when Orlando really pulled away. The Magic shot 60% in the second half, 54% overall for the game.

Rebounding was a big part of the story in this contest. Orlando outrebounded Dallas by a huge margin, 60-33. The Mavericks' leading rebounder had just 6 boards. But, the Magic had Happel and Blatch both pulling down double-digit rebounds, and Dwight Howard just missed with 9 boards.

Happel really was the windex man, cleaning the glass 17 times

Orlando now finishes out 2012 with a home and home series against Detroit. The Magic welcome the Pistons to the Amway Center on Saturday night. Then, Orlando hopes to end 2012 with a victory on New Year's Eve at Detroit.
