ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) Vin Baker says it's lime to start 'counting Rashard Lewis among the NBA's rising stars. Lewis had career highs of 36 points and 19 rebounds Monday 1 night to lead the Seattle Super-ionics past the Orlando Magic 123-1 19 in double overtime. It was a clear indication that Lewis just three years out of high school is ready to take his game to another level.

"He is a remarkable young player," Baker said. "To go against one of the better young players in Tracy (McGrady), I think he showed tonight you are going to have to start mentioning his name with the other young stars in this league." Like Lewis, McGrady made 'the jump from high school to the NBA. But Lewis had a 'greater impact on his team Monday, hitting 15 of 28 shots, including 5-of-8 on 3-pointcrs. McGrady struggled by hitting five of his first 17 shots. He found his touch late, making of his final nine for 27 points not enough to stop Lewis and the Sonics.

Lewis says McGrady's stellar last season serves as an inspiration. McGrady was chosen as the NBA's most improved player. "I've been working hard the whole summer and I'm playing hard now, so I hope this can be breakout season for me," said Lewis, who played 54 minutes. "I am just trying to pick my scoring and rebounding up a lit-c bit." Lewis got plenty of help from "Gary Pay ion, who had 32 points 1 and 1 1 assists. Baker scored 22 points, and Desmond Mason added 1 6.

effort from Rashard, both offensively and rebounding; also Gary, whose touch hasn't been with him the last couple of games. "Tonight, he came back and didn't give up on his shot." Hill led Orlando with 28 points, and Darrell Armstrong finished with 17 points after scoring 14 in the first half. "I really thought the first half we came out and were pretty passive and they took it to us," Magic coach Doc Rivers said. "They were more aggressive and that dug a hole for us. "But Rashard Lewis was awesome tonight and I thought he was the difference in the game." Notes: Orlando's Patrick Ewing moved into a tie with Hal Greer for 28th on the NBA's career list for games played Seattle's Brent Barry tied a career-high with 1 1 assists.

The game had 13 lead changes and 16 ties. Clippers 109, Hawks 86 Corey Maggette, starting for the suspended Lamar Odom, scored 16 points, and Quentin Richardson had 20 as the Los Angeles Clippers beat Atlanta for their first victory of the season. Odom, who attended Sunday's practice on crutches because of an injured left foot and couldn't have played anyway, was punished by the NBA for violating its anti-drug policy for the second time in nine months. Elton Brand had 13 points and 10 rebounds, and Jeff Mcinnis added 12 points and 10 assists for the Clippers, who never trailed. Nazr Mohammed scored a career-high 30 points and grabbed 1 1 rebounds for the Hawks, who lost Jason Terry to a strained left hamstring midway through the first quarter and Toni Kukoc to a strained right quad late in the third.

Obviously, this isn't the way the Pittsburgh Penguins play hockey.

It is now. Without injured stars Mario Lemieux, Alexei Kovalev and Martin Straka and without the traded Jaromir Jagr, too the Penguins haven't exactly become disciples of the neutral zone trap, but they are a much different club. Since Straka broke a leg Oct. 28, the same day it was learned Lemieux needed hip surgery, the scores of the Penguins' four games have been 2-2, 3-0, 3-1 and 2-1. Here's the surprise: they won two of them and tied another.

The reinvented Penguins will take their reconfigured style on a three-game southern road trip that begins Tuesday night in Carolina, and they expect it to be as successful there as it was in consecutive home-ice victories. The Penguins beat Toronto 3-1 on Thursday and Tampa Bay 2-1 on Saturday with players named Kris Beech, Aleksey Moro-zov, Billy Tibbetts and Jan Hrdina playing key roles, rather than the more familiar names of Lemieux and Kovalev. "It wasn't really pretty, but any time you get four points out of two games, it's great," forward Robert Lang said Monday. "We have a beat-up team, a lot of guys missing and playing out of place, but it definitely showed a lot of character in our team." Kovalev, who had arthroscopic knee surgery last moth, and Lemieux will accompany the Penguins on the trip as they recover from their injuries. Kovalev could be back in 10 days to two weeks, while Lemieux expecLs to return quicker than the 3-to-4 weeks the doctors said he would need to get healthy.

"When Alexei and Mario come back, that's two pretty big pieces of the puzzle," Lang said. "But I don't want to look ahead. I want to see some points in the next four or five games and go from there." The Penguins seem to be taking pride in playing a style they have rarely played before, even if it is one far less exciting than they are accustomed to playing. "Everybody knows that with all these skilled guys out of the lineup, we're not going to win 7-5," said goaltender Johan Hedberg, who will start Tuesday. "We have to play smart, play low-scoring games and take advantage of the breaks we're getting.

"I think we've played pretty smart the last couple of games, and we've got to keep playing that way." Kevin Stevens said he's already getting calls from around the league and his friends back home in Boston, wondering how the Penguins can keep playing so out of character. "They keep asking, "How are you guys and I hope they keep calling me," Stevens said. "You don't have a lot of guys you can go to right now, but you have 20 guys working hard and knowing they can win. It's been a lot of fun." The Penguins will probably go against Tom Barrasso, the goalie on their Stanley Cup championship teams in 1991 and 1992, on Tuesday. He moved into 10th place in career goaltender victories in Carolina's 1-0 victory Sunday over Phoenix.
