Paul nearly has quadruple-double; Spurs top Lakers
Chris Paul made a big statement in Dallas. Down the road in San Antonio, the Spurs sent a message to the Los Angeles Lakers.
Turning a point guard showdown with Jason Kidd into a rout, Paul nearly had a quadruple-double in New Orleans' 104-97 victory over Dallas on Wednesday night, finishing with 33 points, 11 assists, 10 rebounds and seven steals.
'Every night I just try to take what the defense gives me,' Paul said. 'They were going under ball screens and forcing me to shoot, so that's what I had to do.'
