Just when it seemed the Magic were mounting a late rally to get back into their Game 2 matchup with the Pistons, Chauncey Billups showed why he has earned the moniker “Mr. Big Shot.”
Billups converted a three-point play with 59.8 seconds left in the fourth quarter to push Detroit’s lead back to nine points and seal a 98-90 victory Monday that gave his team a 2-0 advantage in their first-round series.
Billups finished with 21 points, and Richard Hamilton scored 12 of his 22 in the final frame. Rasheed Wallace tallied 17 points, 11 rebounds and three blocked shots.
