    After New Orleans survived a stunning fourth-quarter surge by LeBron James and forced overtime, injured veteran centerKendrick Perkins pulled Pelicans teammate Anthony Davis aside for a quick word.

    "Perk told me, `This is the time where you've got to be great," Davis said. "Every time I caught the ball, I was looking to be aggressive and teammates were looking for me. ... So it was just about me knocking down the shots."
