CHARLOTTE, N. Sean
Harlow Youth Jersey
.C. -- After watching Jeffery Taylor lead Charlotte to
its latest win, Bobcats coach Steve Clifford was full of praise for his young
star. Taylor matched a career high with 20 points, leading six teammates in
double figures, and Charlotte beat the Philadelphia 76ers 105-88 on Friday
night. "Hes a talented guy," Clifford said of the 24-year-old Taylor. "Hes at
that age where guys make the biggest jump. Certainly he has the size,
athleticism and intelligence to get his game to the next level. And hes a hard
worker." Subbing for injured starter Michael Kidd-Gilchrist at small forward,
Taylor mixed mid-range jumpers with athletic drives and cuts to the basket to
scored nine of Charlottes first 22 points. "I was just trying to take the
opportunities as they came to me," said Taylor, a second-round draft pick in his
second NBA season. "A lot of the same shots I made tonight havent been going in
for me lately. I just tried to stay aggressive and take what the defence gave to
me." Gerald Henderson and Kemba Walker added 18 apiece, and Walker also had a
season-high 10 assists. Al Jefferson had 14 points and 12 rebounds,
Ramon Sessions added 13 points and rookie Cody Zeller chipped in with 10.
Philadelphia was led by Tony Wrotens 21 points. Evan Turner added 16,
Hollis Thompson scored 12 and Spencer Hawes had 10 points and 13 rebounds. The
Sixers played without starting point guard Michael Carter-Williams, who came in
averaging 17.7 points. The rookie sat out because of a sore right knee. Taylor
impressed even Philadelphia coach Brett Brown. "Hes a good player," Brown said.
"You look at his length and you look at his toughness and thats a rare
combination. ... He had personal pride in attacking us." In addition to playing
without Kidd-Gilchrist, out four to six weeks after breaking his left hand
during a loss at Dallas last Tuesday, the Bobcats lost backup centre
Bismack Biyombo to a right ankle sprain in the first half. In a matchup of
defensive-minded teams, the opening quarter was an up-and-down affair that ended
with the Bobcats leading 36-33 after shooting 56 per cent from the field (14 of
25). They never trailed again, eventually leading by as many as 18 points in the
fourth quarter while shooting 46 per cent for the game. The Bobcats have held
opponents under 100 points for 13 consecutive games, most in the NBA. The Sixers
cooled off after hitting seven of their first 12 shots, but Charlotte shot 54
per cent (25 of 46) in the first half. The Bobcats took a 62-51 halftime lead on
Jeffersons tip-in of a missed layup by Walker at the second-quarter buzzer. "I
feel like the whole first half was not very good for us defensively," Brown said
of the Sixers. Wroten added: "Weve got to start the game off better defensively.
We played better on defence in the second half, but weve just got to play
defence like that for the whole 48 minutes." Jefferson scored the first two
baskets of the third to give the Bobcats the first of what would be multiple
15-point leads in the quarter. The lead swelled to as much as 18 in the fourth
as the Bobcats continued running and scoring almost at will in transition,
evidenced by the 22-10 edge they held in fast-break points for the game. The 105
points represented a season high for the Bobcats, only the second time they
surpassed the 100-point mark. The only other time came in a 102-97 win at New
York on Nov. 5.

. JOHNS, N.ABBOTSFORD, B.C. - Sometimes all it takes is a couple of lucky
bounces. Austin Fyten can attest to that. The Oklahoma City forward picked up
his first career two-goal game Sunday afternoon as the Barons came back to beat
the Abbotsford Heat 5-4 in a shootout in American Hockey League action. Fyten
hadnt scored in 14 games but the 23-year-old tied the game twice with
redirections in the comeback win. "Ive been playing a lot and pretty well but
things werent going my way, as far as bounces and stuff," said Fyten. "Tonight
is one of those nights. I didnt even shoot it in — both goals went off my body.
"If you play the right way good things will happen. I was pleased to get those —
huge win for the boys." The two goals Sunday were just the fifth and sixth of
the year for the Sundre, Alta. native. "Hes been great for us lately," said
Oklahoma Citys Roman Horak. "Hes not afraid to go to the front of the net and do
the dirty work and it pays off. He got two goals and that was a huge help from
him tonight." Anton Lander scored the shootout winner, beating goalie Doug Carr
low to the stick side before Barons goaltender Richard Bachman stopped Max
Reinhart to clinch the win. The Barons never led in the game and needed Curtis
Hamilton to tie it with just over two minutes to play in the third. "It was
tough," said Fyten. "We were behind the eight ball all night. We stayed with the
game plan and battled back. We got a couple greasy goals, and then Hammy stepped
up with a big goal. "We wanted it and just kept pushing and pushing. We deserved
that one." Former heat forward Horak also scored for Oklahoma City (34-28-11),
which maintained the final Western Conference playoff berth, with Charlotte and
Rockford now both two points back. "Its definitely one of those things where you
watch whos winning and not winning," said Fyten. "Both the teams helped us out
tonight with a couple losses. But its going to come down to the bitter end. We
need to keep winning games and finish strong." Bachman, who has started 27 of
the Barons last 30 games, made 33 saves. "Hes been keeping us in games," said
Horak of Bachman. "Especially if we make the playoffs, were going to be betting
on him a lot." Added Fyten: "We gave up too many shots tonight, too many PKs and
stuff. But hes our most valuable player for sure. Hes been unreal for us and
hopefully he can keep with it and help us down the stretch." In the other
crease, Carrr was making his first AHL appearance, stopping 22 shots for
Abbotsford (40-25-8).

. . "He made some huge saves," said Heat head coach Troy
Ward, who gave team MVP Joni Ortio the day off. "I thought the last one there he
wants back, the tying goal. But hes adjusting to a higher level, the release is
quicker . . . but I thought he did a nice job for us today." Brett Kulak
recorded his first career AHL goal, while Ben Street, Brett Olson and Reinhart
also scored for the Heat, who have clinched a playoff spot but ended their
chances of catching Chicago for fourth place. Lander tested Carr early, stealing
the puck in the slot, but the Heat netminder made a nifty glove save to keep the
game scoreless. Olson opened the scoring at 10:45 on the power play. Derek
Smiths point shot ricocheted off Sven Baertschis skate right to Olson at the
side of the net and he quickly backhanded it past Bachman for his 17th of the
year. Fyten tied the game at 5:56 of the second period, redirecting Brad Hunts
point shot. But Kulak put the Heat back in the lead a little more than two
minutes later. Ben Hanowski, playing his first game since being reassigned by
Calgary, made a great play, drawing Bachman to the left right post before
setting up Kulaks one-timer from the hash marks. "I didnt know (Hanowski) saw me
back there, but he threw a really nice pass — I guess thats why hes been in the
NHL for the past month," said Kulak. "He made it really easy for me to just tap
it in there. Obviously I cant enjoy it as much as I would have if we won the
game, but its still a special feeling." Streets team-leading 28th of the season
doubled the lead at 14:31. Smith blocked a clearing attempt at the blue-line and
quickly put a shot on net, where Street deflected it past the left pad of
Bachman. Horak drew the Barons back within one with a power-play goal at 17:21.
First he drew a tripping penalty when he was hauled down by Smith on a partial
breakaway. Then he scored his 22nd of the year, finishing off a give-and-go with
Steve Pinizzotto to beat Carr glove side. Fyten tied the game again when Oscar
Klefboms rebound bounced off Fyten at the side of the net at 6:10 of the third.
However, Fyten took a slashing penalty a minute later and the Heat made him pay.
Reinhart tapped in a feed from Street at 8:27 for his 20th of the year. Oklahoma
City once again evened the game with just over two minutes to go. Hamilton took
a pass from Will Acton in the slot and wired a wrist shot past Carrs glove.
