Whether the Orlando Magic's rebuilt roster is good enough to win an NBA title remains to be seen. But what's becoming clearer by the day is that the Magic certainly have more than enough offensive weapons to take the pressure off All-Star center Dwight Howard when needed. With Howard saddled with early foul trouble, Orlando got 18 points apiece from Brandon Bass and Jason Richardson, and 16 points off the bench from Ryan Anderson to beat the Houston Rockets 110-95 on Friday night. The victory extended the Magic's season-best winning streak to eight games. The loss was the fourth straight for Houston. Orlando clung to a three-point advantage at the half but blew open the game after starting the third quarter on a 19-5 run to build a 74-55 cushion. Bass had seven points during the spurt as the Magic outscored the Rockets 39-21 in the period to take a 92-71 lead into the fourth. Anderson led all players with 13 points in the third.
