ORLANDO, Fla. -- Evan Fournier seemed oblivious to the trash talk and choice words Brklyn Nets newcomer Sean Kilpatrick sent his way in the final 3 minutes Friday night.Instead of firing back with nothing more than his mouth, the Orlando guard silenced Kilpatrick with a dominant performance down the stretch. Fournier scored 11 straight points -- hitting all eight of his free throws and a clutch 3-pointer -- as the Magic beat Brklyn 118-111 to snap their six-game home losing streak.Its part of the game. I love it. I really love the trash talking, said Fournier, who finished with 21 points. Im usually not the one starting it, but when its on its on.Fourniers outburst broke open a game that was tied at 106. He converted four consecutive free throws and then drained a 3-pointer that gave Orlando a 113-108 lead with 1:53 remaining.It was a remarkable finish considering Fourniers early struggles, which led to a brief benching in the third quarter.Hes done that before, where hasnt been shting the basketball well but still has the confidence to hit big shots down the stretch, Magic coach Frank Vogel said. As long as he is making the right reads -- when he makes the right reads he shts a remarkable 3-point percentage. He is a big reason why we pulled away with the victory.In a game that was close throughout, the Magic came up with key baskets and big stops down the stretch. The Nets had no offense outside of point guard Jeremy Lin during the final 3 minutes.Orlando, meanwhile, received key contributions from its big men, with Serge Ibaka, Bismack Biyombo and Nikola Vucevic combining for 11 blocked shots. The trio also was important in giving the Magic several second-shot opportunities. The Magic outscored the Nets 10-4 on second-chance points as a result of 13 offensive rebounds.They absolutely have an athletic group and we knew they were committed to crashing the glass beforehand, said Nets center Brk Lopez, who had 22 points and five blocked shots. They went out and did it. Maybe we need to recommit.NET GAINVucevic seems to save some of his best performances for Lopez and the Nets.Friday night was certainly no different. After missing three games with a back injury, Vucevic had 21 points, 10 rebounds and a big blocked shot off the bench against Lopez.I think we both play really well against each other. I think we both just enjoy going against each other. You get fired up for a matchup like that, he said.GETTING TECHNICALThe third quarter featured five technical fouls, four on the Magic and one on Nets coach Kenny Atkinson.But going into the fourth, Vogel let his players know it was time to get their heads back in the game.I told everybody to stop getting techs, said Vogel, assessed one of the technicals himself for arguing a no-call. We said our peace. We didnt like what we were seeing. We said our peace and move on.TIP-INSNets: Lin returned to the lineup after missing Wednesdays game due to lower back tightness.

Walton played 36 minutes despite a left ankle he said was still a little stiff after he rolled it in Fridays season-opening win over Howard.Ive got supreme faith in coach (John Beilein). I know he wont push me over my limit, Walton said. We usually push the limit.Zak Irvin scored 15 points for the Wolverines (2-0), who scored the final 13 points of the first half to take a 43-32 lead. They held on to win comfortably despite 22 points from IUPUIs Darell Combs.Moe Wagner scored 13 points for Michigan and Muhammad-Ali Abdur-Rahkman contributed 12.Matt OLeary scored 13 points for the Jaguars (0-2), and Kellon Thomas added 10. IUPUI had also played Friday, losing at Eastern Kentucky.Im proud of the boys, IUPUI coach Jason Gardner said. To have a one-day prep, really almost like a walkthrough, and guys to be locked in defensively, I thought that was a step as far as showing growth.Michigan trailed 32-30 before Abdur-Rahkman made a 3-pointer with 3:47 left in the first half. Baskets by Ibi Watson and Mark Donnal pushed the lead to five, and then Donnal added two free throws. Abdur-Rahkman and Irvin added baskets in the final minute to make it an 11-point game.BIG PICTUREIUPUI: The Jaguars could have used more scoring from players other than Combs if they were going to make a serious bid for an upset in this game. Against Eastern Kentucky, Combs scored 28 points and none of his teammates had more than 11.dddddddddddd. It was a similar story against Michigan.Michigan: The Wolverines are making things easy on themselves with their foul shting. After going 23 of 26 from the line in the win over Howard, Michigan was 16 of 18 against IUPUI. It will be hard for the Wolverines to keep that up, but its certainly an encouraging development for them so far.TOUGH INSIDEMichigan backup D.J. Wilson finished with quite a line: seven points, 14 rebounds and five blocks in 30 minutes. Beilein is pleased with the versatility he provides on defense.D.J. Wilson is really changing the way we guard, where we can switch more because he can guard really five positions right now, Beilein said. Thats really going to help us.FOULSAlthough Michigan shot a terrific percentage from the line, the Wolverines had only 18 attempts. That was an improvement for IUPUI, which allowed 56 free-throw attempts against Eastern Kentucky.I think we reached t much on Friday, Gardner said. I think we were trying to be more mindful -- not reaching, not lunging.UP NEXTIUPUI: Sundays game was part of the 2K Classic, which benefits Wounded Warrior Project. The Jaguars host Howard on Friday as the event continues.Michigan: The Wolverines head to New York to play in a 2K Classic semifinal against Marquette on Thursday night at Madison Square Garden.---For more college basketball: http://collegebasketball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25---Follow Noah Trister at www.Twitter.com/noahtrister ' ' '
