The Clippers took it to the Hornets last night. Elton Brand led the way with 22 points, 10 rebounds, 3 steals and 2 blocked shots. Corey Maggette had a solid game with 14 points and 5 rebounds. Sam Cassell (13 points), Quinton Ross (12 points, 3 steals) and Tim Thomas (12 points, 7 rebounds) all pitched in on the offense.

Another nice home win for the Clippers, who are now 5-1 on the season.
