Doing Lines: CP3 Will Go Through You

Every night there are some stupendous, silly, stupid, or downright outlandish individual lines from around the "lig." Doing Lines lets you know which one tops the list.



Chris Paul had the complete package Thursday night: the highlight reel play, the ridiculous line (27 points and 15 dimes) and, of course, the blowout win.

The Hornets topped the Mavs 104-88, preserving at least for one more night their home court advantage in the first-round. The Hornets are currently the No. 4 seed, but only two games seprate them from the Mavs, who are currently holding down the No. 8 seed.

If his slick move on Jason Terry left you dumbfounded, you're not alone:

"Incredible. He made one of the best moves I've ever seen in my life - on an NBA player,'' [Tyson] Chandler said. "I was at halfcourt and I just stopped. I couldn't even finish the break because I had never seen anything like that.''

Bounce back: As mentioned in the previous post, Carmelo Anthony bounced back from his one-game suspension in a huge way, scoring a game-high 38 points in a win over the Trail Blazers.

Vanilla Gorilla! While everyone's preoccupied with Greg Oden's absence, Joel Przybilla just keeps on producing: he scored only five points for the Blazers but grabbed 12 boards in just 27 minutes. Przybilla has been incredible efficient on the glass this year: of the 21 games in which he's cracked double-digit rebounds, he's played 30 minutes or more only four times.
