Vince Carter scored 23 points to help the Orlando Magic pull away early and cruise to a 111-82 win over the Chicago Bulls Thursday night for a season-high seventh straight win. Matt Barnes added 14 points, and reserve Brandon Bass scored 13 in another blowout victory against a struggling team for the Magic. All-Star point guard Derrick Rose sprained his left wrist in a collision with Dwight Howard in the first quarter and didn't return for the Bulls, the latest setback in a season that is quickly going sour. Taj Gibson and Hakim Warrick had 12 points apiece, not nearly enough to prevent Chicago's sixth consecutive loss. Hawks 105, Wizards 99: At Washington, Jamal Crawford scored 29 points to help Atlanta win for the first time in three matches. Joe Johnson and Al Horford each scored 18 points in Atlanta's first trip to the nation's capital this season for the makeup of a game that was postponed Feb. 6 due to a blizzard. Andray Blatche had 30 points and 10 rebounds for Washington, in the midst of a stretch of three games in three nights because of the schedule change. Crawford scored 12 points in the final 3:37 of the third quarter, making six free throws and connecting on two of his four made 3-pointers. Trail Blazers 110, Warriors 105: In California, Portland overcame a 13-point fourth-quarter deficit to beat Golden State. Brandon Roy scored 41 points and Andre Miller added 15 points and seven assists for the Blazers, who put together a late 17-3 run. The comeback could prove vital as Portland clings onto the eighth spot in the Western Conference. Corey Maggette scored 24 points for the Warriors, who lost their sixth straight.
