at The Palace, they certainly produced a performance worthy of the
occasion.Andre Drummond had 12 points and 20 rebounds, and the Pistons routed
the Orlando Magic 108-82 on Friday night in their most lopsided victory in a
home opener. Tobias Harris scored 18 points for the Pistons, and Marcus Morris
added 17.It was a good team effort tonight, coach Stan Van Gundy said. I thought
everybody was involved and played well.Pistons owner Tom Gores confirmed before
the game the team is close on a deal to move downtown next season, so a run in
Auburn Hills thats included three championships may be nearing an end. There
will be time later to celebrate the history of The Palace if the move does
become official, but Fridays win was a nice moment already. Detroits 26-point
victory broke a franchise record that was last matched in 1967, when the team
played at Cobo Arena and the Pistons won their home opener by 23.Ish Smith had
16 points and eight assists for Detroit on Friday. Aaron Gordon led the Magic
with 17 points.Detroit went on a 16-0 run in the second quarter to take a 44-24
lead, and the Pistons ended up outscoring Orlando 30-9 in the period. The Magic
trailed 54-31 at halftime after shooting just 27 percent from the field.There
were so many missed shots by Orlando that Drummond had 16 rebounds in the first
half alone.I thought that early on, too many guys were trying to get us into the
game by themselves instead of trusting their teammates, Orlando coach Frank
Vogel said. Once it got out of hand, I think our shoulders slumped, but thats
going to happen to any team that gets outplayed that badly.Drummond reached 20
rebounds for the 28th time in his career. His rebounding has never been in
question, but the big issue is whether he can finally improve his abysmal foul
shooting.He made his only two free throws Friday, drawing a big cheer from the
crowd in the third quarter.Orlando never made a game of it after its awful
second quarter. The Pistons were up 86-51 after three, and even 7-foot-3 backup
Boban Marjanovic got into the game at the end, much to the delight of the home
fans.TIP-INSMagic: Orlando finished the game at 35 percent from the field. ...
The Magic were outscored 60-36 in the paint.Pistons: Detroit is without PG
Reggie Jackson, who is still recovering from a left knee problem. ... Backups
Aron Baynes and Beno Udrih scored 13 points apiece. ... The Pistons have won
seven in a row against Orlando. ... Drummond had 11 rebounds in the second
quarter.BOUNCEBACKDetroit made the playoffs last season for the first time since
2009, so it was a bit of a downer when the Pistons lost their opener 109-91 to
Toronto. Detroit evened its record out with an emphatic victory against the
Magic.We know what it takes to win, Drummond said. We had that taste of success
last year and we know how hard we need to play in order to be a great team. That
wasnt the team that we showed against Toronto.RETURNOrlando had C Bismack
Biyombo available after he was suspended for the opener for exceeding the
flagrant foul limit in last seasons playoffs. He scored two points in 22:51.We
have to start playing as a team, Biyombo said. Were out there playing one on one
all over the court, and thats not how you win games in this league.UP NEXTMagic:
Visit Cleveland on Saturday night. Orlandos first three games this season are
against playoff teams from 2015-16. The Magic lost their opener to
Miami.Pistons: Host Milwaukee on Sunday night. Former Detroit big man Greg
Monroe is in his second season with the Bucks.---Follow Noah Trister at

France . The Swede became the first golfer to win the PGA Tours FedEx Cup
and European Tours Race to Dubai in the same season. "It is still taking a
little time to sink in what Ive achieved this week as was the case when I won
the FedEx Cup but then it just kept getting better and better as the days went
on and I am sure this will be the same," he said. Guys have seen the replays but
its one of those things. It can happen to any team, said a crestfallen Graeme
Cremer after Zimbabwe went down to New Zealand by 254 runs to concede the series
2-0 in Bulawayo. It would have been nice going into the last hour with a couple
of wickets but these things happen. The disappointment was palpable considering
Zimbabwe were at the receiving end of a few howlers during the series.
ESPNcricinfo examines them
ean Williams, first innings, first Test Neil Wagner
hit Sean Williams on the helmet off his first delivery and broke his grille. A
second bouncer followed. Williams, clearly hustled for pace, attempted a pull
which lobbed off the helmet to Ish Sodhi at short midwicket. Williams stood
until umpire Paul Reiffel gave him out. He walked off disappointed, but not
before he gestured to his helmet in explanation.Prince Masvaure, first innings,
first Test After saving Zimbabwes blushes with an 85-run ninth wicket stand with
Donald Tiripano, Prince Mavaure would have been eyeing a maiden Test fifty. But
his hopes were dashed when he played across the line to a Tim Southee delivery.
Replays suggested the ball would have missed leg stump, but Reiffel didnt feel
so.Craig Ervine, second innings, first Test Three balls after reaching his
maiden Test fifty, Craig Ervine played inside the line to a Boult delivery that
reversed back into him. There was a noise and Ervine was given out caught
behind. But replays showed there was no nick. The ball was not close to the bat
and the sound likely came from the bat hitting the pad. Debutant umpire Michael
Gough made that call.Graeme Cremer, second innings, first Test Zimbabwes captain
saw Sean Williams through to a century and had faced 130 balls himself, for 33.
Cremer was picking the spin well until he tried to flick an Ish Sodhi legbreak
but missed. He was hit above the knee roll and the ball would have sailed over
the stumps, but Reiffel didnt think that way.Donald Tiripano, first innings,
second Test His first Test efforts proved Donald Tiripano could bat, but his
resistance was cut short in the second Test. Neil Wagner pitched a ball just
outside leg, Tiripano missed an attempted nudgee and was hit in front of leg
stump.dddddddddddd Reiffel gave him out despite the ball pitching outside the
line of the stumps.Chamu Chibhabha, first innings, second Test The only time
Zimbabwe benefitted from a decision was off the second ball on the third
morning. Chamu Chibhabha and Tino Mawoyo had made sure they had not lost wickets
the evening before, but Chibhabha should have been out when Boult got one to
pitch in line, tail in late and hit him on the pads. Reiffel said not out even
as the New Zealanders watched in dismay.Donald Tiripano, second innings, second
Test For the second time in the match, Tiripano was at the receiving end of a
poor call. He had batted 70 minutes of the final morning in an effort to save
the game and was dealing well with seam and spin when Mitchell Santner, the
left-arm spinner, bowled one that drifted in towards leg stump. The ball skidded
on, without turning and would have missed leg stump. Umpire Reiffel clearly
didnt see it that way.Craig Ervine, second innings, second Test At the stroke of
lunch on the final day, Ervine seemed set to see out the session. Kane
Williamson looked to get rid of an over by giving Martin Guptill a bowl. Ervine
lunged forward to defend but missed a ball that turned. There no contact between
bat and ball, although the bat may have hit the pad and made a sound. Reiffel
gave Ervine out.Graeme Cremer, second innings, second Test Cremer had not
managed to plant roots as he did in the first Test, but still had some hope of
batting time, despite Zimbabwe being seven down after lunch. Guptill was turning
the ball significantly and Cremer inside-edged one onto his pad. He was given
out lbw by Reiffel.Prince Masvaure, second innings, second Test At the other
end, with Zimbabwe in complete disarray, Prince Masvaure got down to defend a
Sodhi ball the beat the inside edge and hit him on the pad. The ball lobbed up
to Taylor, who claimed the catch at slip, and Masvaure was sent packing by
Gough. Even assuming it was for an lbw, the ball would have comfortably missed
leg stump.
