The Halifax Hurricanes will breeze into New Brunswick with a 2-0 lead in their Atlantic Division final. The Hurricanes blasted the Moncton Magic 121-79 in Game 2 of the best-of-seven NBL Canada series Saturday night in front of 2,003 fans at Scotiabank Centre. Games 3 and 4 are Tuesday and Thursday at the Moncton Coliseum. 'We picked up our defence, we had a lot of energy from the crowd and we just played off that,' said veteran forward Billy White (6'8''-F-89, college: San Diego St.), who had 21 points in 28 minutes of action. 'That's how we got the win tonight.' Antoine Mason (6'3''-G-92, college: Auburn) paced the Hurricanes with 25 points, including 17 in the first quarter. He shot 81 per cent from the field. Tyrone Watson had 22 points and eight rebounds while Mike Poole (6'6''-G/F-92, college: Iona) came off the bench to score 19. The Hurricanes dictated the play from the onset, unlike Game 1 on Thursday when they had to overcome a slow start and a 20-point deficit in a 107-97 win. On Saturday, Halifax pulled ahead 40-21 after the first quarter, increased the lead to 27 at halftime and upped it to 35 early into the third quarter. The Hurricanes never trailed in a dominating performance. 'We didn't start off slow and that was key,' White said. 'The whole playoffs we have been starting off slow, even against P.E.I. (their opening round series against the Island Storm). 'Coach emphasized to just play hard from the beginning. The first six minutes matter. That's what we did tonight.' Juan Pattillo (6'8''-F-88, college: W.Kentucky) led the Magic with 14 points, Corey Allmond (6'2''-G-88, college: Sam Houston St.) had 13 and Jason Calliste (6'2''-G-90, college: Oregon) collected a dozen. The Hurricanes shot nearly 55 per cent from the field while limiting the Magic to just 28 of 73 attempts. Halifax outrebounded Moncton 52-35. 'We are a transition team,' White said. 'If we get stops, that's what we want to do. We want to run in transition and I felt like that's what we did tonight.' Courtesy of: thechronicleherald.ca
