NEW ORLEANS (AP) - David West and the New Orleans Hornets sure
looked happy to be at home.
West had career playoff highs of 38 points, 14 rebounds and five
blocked shots, lifting New Orleans to a 101-79 victory over the San
Antonio Spurs on Tuesday night and a 3-2 series lead.
New Orleans looked impressive in winning the first two games at
home but stumbled in San Antonio. Back in the Big Easy, the Hornets
cruised again.
Chris Paul had 16 of his 22 points in the second half and added
14 assists for New Orleans, which has never advanced past the
second round of the playoffs.
Manu Ginobili led San Antonio with 20 points and Tony Parker had
18. The Hornets held Tim Duncan to 10 points, though Duncan was a
force on the defensive end with 23 rebounds.
