| Indianapolis, IN (SportsNetwork.com) - Al Horford scored 25 points with eight rebounds to lead the Atlanta Hawks to a 108-92 win over the Indiana Pacers on Monday. Jeff Teague chipped in with 21 points and seven assists, while Kyle Korver netted 13 points and DeMarre Carroll added 12 for the Hawks, who have won seven straight overall and four consecutive on the road. Indiana, meanwhile, continues to sputter as it returned home from a winless four-game road trip to lose a fifth straight game. Rodney Stuckey and C.J. Miles paced the Pacers with 15 points. Clearly the Hawks were a more energized team, said Pacers coach Frank Vogel. We seemed a step slow. It does not get any easier for Indiana over the rest of the week, as it plays host to the Los Angeles Clippers and Portland Trail Blazers around a road game in Toronto. Carroll wrapped two 3-pointers around a Chris Copeland trey, then Horford added a basket from deep to give the Hawks an 18-11 lead. Another 3 from Carroll minutes later made it a 10-point game and the visitors led 28-18 after 12 minutes. I thought that we were able to set a tone and make sure that we stuck to the game plan, make sure that we defended and rebounded, and make sure that the home team didnt get on any big runs, Horford said. A 10-3 run to open the second quarter extended the lead for Atlanta as Thabo Sefolosha knocked down back-to-back shots for a 38-21 advantage. Solomon Hills layup capped a 10-2 spurt that trimmed the deficit back to 10, but the Hawks scored the final seven points of the half and brought a 60-43 lead into halftime. Teagues three-point play early in the third gave the Hawks a 68-47 edge. Indiana trailed by 21 entering the fourth quarter, but Miles helped it get back into the game. Miles hit consecutive 3s to begin the frame for the Pacers, then his four-point play closed the gap to 92-79 with over eight minutes left. Horford and Millsap answered with baskets, however, and the Hawks withstood Indianas rally to keep their winning streak alive. Game Notes Atlanta shot 51.9 percent from the floor ... The Hawks had a 48-36 edge in the paint ... Horford had a game-high three blocks ... Luis Scola had 12 points and nine rebounds in the setback. ED Belfour Blackhawks Jersey .

Chicago Blackhawks Jerseys . -- One shot came out of bottom of a cactus, the other from the base of a desert bush with rocks scattered around it.Nico Rosberg has beaten Mercedes team-mate Lewis Hamilton to pole position for the Japanese GP by less than a tenth of a second. In one of the closest sessions of the year, Rosberg edged out Hamilton, ahead in their opening Q3 runs, by the slender margin of two hundredths of a second.Its the tenth time this year that Mercedes have locked out the front row for a race. Rosberg, who leads the world championship by 23 points, has appeared to hold a small advantage over Hamilton all weekend but had to deliver an inch-perfect lap to prevail in their battle for pole. Mercedes calculated the difference in lap time between their two drivers to be worth 82 centimeters of the legendary Suzuka circuit. I was going well the whole weekend, said Rosberg. Thats what allows me to put a lap in like that. Sky F1s Johnny Herbert got a rare opportunity to congratulate pole position winner Nico Rosberg in his car over team radio in Japan On the track and in the record books, Hamilton and Rosberg have never been closer. The pair have both claimed pole position eight times this year and Rosbergs latest success closes his overall qualifying deficit to Hamilton during their partnership at Mercedes to 29-31.But all is far from lost for Hamilton this weekend. The world champion has never qualified on pole position at Suzuka but on Sunday will be seeking to claim his third successive victory in Japan from second on the grid.Im happy with qualifying, said Hamilton. Its been a weekend a lot of work, getting the set-up right, some big changes went into qualifying.Considering that, to be that close, I was really happy with it.

Led by Kimi Raikkonen, Ferrari beat Red Bull to the second row, although Sebastian Vettel will have to surrender his position to Max Verstappen, a tenth faster than team-mate Daniel Ricciardo, due to the grid penalty hanging over the four-time world champion from his clash with Rosberg at the start in Malaysia.The ever-impressive Sergio Perez was seventh for Force India but set an identical lap time in Q3 as the surprise package of Haas Romain Grosjean. Perez will be given the higher starting position courtesy of setting his lap before the Frenchman. When is the Japanese GP on Sky F1?Nico Hulkenberg and Esteban Gutierrez rounded off the top ten on a day when almost the entire grid qualified next to their team-mate and the biggest difference between sister cars amounted to just two grid slots.Of the 22 drivers on show, only Perez, Grosjean, Fernando Alonso and Jolyon Palmer, steadily improving at Renault, managed to put clear daylight between them and their team-mates. Jenson Button suffered the indignity of elimination at the first hurdle, exiting Q1 at McLaren-Hondas home race. Worse, it wasnt even a surprise: Button has struggled all weekend on a circuit which, ironically, highlights rather than disguises the weaknesses of the McLaren package. Alonso fared only slightly better, reaching the modest heights of 15th, two places ahead of Button. Japanese GP Qualifying1 Nico Rosberg, Mercedes, 1:30.6472. Lewis Hamilton, Mercedes + 0.013 3.
