In 2011, Chris Paul and the New Orleans Hornets went into the NBA Playoffs limping.
After losing star forward David West to injury, the Hornets looked primed to be swept against the star powered Los Angeles Lakers, led by Kobe Bryant and Pau Gasol. No one gave New Orleans a chance.
That would change in Game One of the First Round.
Chris Paul put on a stunning performance with 33 points, 14 assists and seven rebounds to lead New Orleans past the Lakers 109-100.
