Dwight Howard scored 10 points in overtime and the Orlando Magic, raining down 3-pointers like a Florida thunderstorm, withstood 44 points and a last-second shot by LeBron James for a 116-114 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Tuesday night to take a 3-1 lead in the Eastern Conference finals.
Howard finished with 27 points, 14 rebounds and again made his free throws _ 7 of 9 _ for the resilient Magic, who made a team record 17 3-pointers _ 11 after halftime.
If Orlando wins in Game 5 on Thursday night in Cleveland, they would be headed to the NBA finals, the first time since 1995.
