ATLANTA - Mike Budenholzer wasnt going to let the Atlanta Hawks relax after their strongest defensive half of the season, especially when he detected a lack of intensity to open the second half. Victor Hedman Jersey .Budenholzer called a full timeout after New Orleans first possession of the second half, and the Hawks got the message that no letdown would be tolerated.Led by Jeff Teagues 26 points and the strong defence in the first half, the Hawks answered every second-half challenge from New Orleans and beat the Pelicans 100-91 on Friday night.DeMarre Carroll added 19 points for Atlanta, which didnt trail after the opening period.Ryan Anderson and Jrue Holiday each had 20 points for New Orleans.The Pelicans couldnt recover after being held to a season-low 28 first-half points, but Budenholzer wasnt happy when New Orleans opened the second half with back-to-back baskets by Tyreke Evans, who had 18 points, and Anthony Davis, who had 14 points and 11 rebounds.I dont think our focus was where it needed to be coming out of halftime, Budenholzer said. Theyre a very good third-quarter team.Atlantas Kyle Korver said the timeout was a great thing to do for the Hawks to kind of figure out if we were going to play in the second half or not.The Pelicans cut Atlantas lead to seven points three times in the fourth period, the last at 94-87. Teague answered with a basket that barely beat the shot clock with 39 seconds remaining.We just came out aggressive on both ends, Teague said. The team did a really good job of playing good team defence. We just helped one another.Paul Millsap had 13 points and nine rebounds and Al Horford had 10 points and 10 rebounds for Atlanta.Teague and his backup, Dennis Schroder, each used quick drives to the basket to win matchups against Pelicans guards, including Holiday. Schroder had 11 points.Teague made 10 of 16 shots and had seven assists.Teague lived in our paint tonight, said New Orleans coach Monty Williams.Teague went behind his back on a drive and layup to spark Atlantas 8-0 run to finish an otherwise sluggish first half for both teams.Teague then set up a basket by Horford, who scored again on an assist from Pero Antic to give the Hawks a 41-28 halftime lead. It was the Pelicans lowest first-half total for the season and the fewest points allowed by Atlanta in any half this year.TIP-INSPelicans: New Orleans made only 5 of 20 shots while scoring only 13 points in the second quarter. ...
