C's stung by Hornets, drop to 0-3

NEW ORLEANS (AP) - Jarrett Jack had 21 points and nine assists in his regular-season debut, and New Orleans dominated in its home opener, beating the winless Boston Celtics 97-78 on Wednesday night.

The Celtics are 0-3 for the first time since 2006-07, the season before they traded to bring Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen in to help star Paul Pierce. Pierce has yet to play this season because of a bruised right heel.

The Hornets were without Eric Gordon, who has a bruised right knee.

Jack did not play in the Hornets' season-opening win at Phoenix on Monday night because of a one-game suspension stemming from a drunken driving arrest last season.

Carl Landry added 20 points and 11 rebounds for the Hornets.

Allen led Boston with 15 points.
