Jazz Ice Sixers With Old Pick-and-Roll

Posted Jan 3, 08 3:48 AM CST in Sports 

(Newser) – Kyle Korver showed no love for his ex-team yesterday, dropping in five free throws in the final 27 seconds to clinch Utah's 110-107 win over Philadelphia, which traded him on Saturday. Carlos Boozer and Deron Williams led six Jazz scorers in double figures. Andre Iguodala became the first Sixer this season to surpass 30 points in the loss, reports AP. In other hoops:

New Orleans broke open a tie game in the third quarter and pulled away from the Los Angeles Clippers, 95-81, yesterday at Staples Center. The usual suspects led the way  for the surprising Hornets—David West with 29 points and star point guard Chris Paul with 13 points, 13 assists. "He's a coach's dream," said Hornets boss Byron Scott.
