Hawks blow out the Pacers

Jeff Teague scored 25 points in his hometown, Pero Antic finished with 18 and the Hawks handed the NBA's best home team an embarrassing 107-88 loss Sunday that could have a major impact on playoff seeding in the East.

Since losing six straight and falling temporarily out of the top eight, Atlanta has won three of its last four to take firm control of the No. 8 slot.

The Pacers couldn't get closer than 13 after falling into a 14-point hole midway through the first quarter Sunday, and their 23 points were a franchise low for a first half.
