Record -- Hornets vs Clippers , Quarter 3 part 6 [3/26]

Paul haunts ex-mates as Clippers top Hornets 97-85 The New Orleans Hornets are just another opponent right now to Chris Paul, whose only incentive stems from the Western Conference standings and how high the long-suffering Los Angeles Clippers can get in the playoff seedings. Paul had 25 points and 10 assists on Monday night in a 97-85 win against the team that first tried to trade him to the Lakersâ€"a deal that was rejected by the leagueâ€"before shipping the All-Star point guard to the Clippers shortly after the lockout ended. "We had a lot of fun, just because we won. I could care less who the opponent was," Paul said. "We're playing for a lot right now, so we needed this win. It's not about who we're playing against.
