    Kemba Walker was surprised to learn his Charlotte Hornets had just recorded the sixth-largest win in NBA history.

    "That's not something you see every day," Walker said after his 46 points led the Hornets to a 140-79 victory Thursday night over the Memphis Grizzlies. "We played well. We knew these guys were short-handed with no Mike Conley and Marc Gasol, who are two awesome players. But we just handled our business."

    Did they ever.

    With Walker leading the charge with the ninth 40-point game of his career, the Hornets roared ahead 12-2 in the first 4 1/2 minutes, were ahead 37-14 after one quarter, 75-42 at halftime and by a game-high 65 points (137-72) with 1:45 left before taking the 61-point win.
