Chris “CP3″ Paul was blazing hot on Wednesday night when the Orlando Magic came into town of the New Orleans Hornets home.  Right off the bat the Hornets made a statement shooting the ball extremely well and locking in on their defensive tactics limiting the Magic from scoring.  Paul threw up 16 points in the first quarter that inevitably led to an impressive blowout where the Hornets won easily with a final score of 117-85.

CP3 was the high scorer for the Hornets with 36 points on 14 for 22 field goal shooting.  Paul also had 10 assists, 6 rebounds and 3 steals.  The New Orleans team also had 5 other players in double figures including Rasual Butler, David West, Melvin Ely, Devin Brown and Peja Stojakovic.  Lets see if the Hornets can make a strong push in the second half of the year and end up in one of the top 4 slots in the Western Conference.
