(April 16, 2008)--Jason Kidd had the 100th triple-double of his
career and sparked a 30-8 stretch that sent the Dallas Mavericks
past the New Orleans Hornets, 111-98 Wednesday night, and set up a
first-round showdown between these teams.

Kidd had 27 points, 10 assists and 10 rebounds for his first triple-double since rejoining the Mavericks, the team he was with when he broke into the league and began piling up the stats. He already was No. 3 on the career list, behind Oscar Robertson and Magic Johnson, but now he has joined them in triple-figure, triple-doubles.
