ATLANTA -- Kyle Korver was concerned that the Atlanta Hawks were about to squander another chance to beat a struggling opponent. "We easily couldve hung our heads there, but we kept fighting, got some good looks and we knocked them down," he said. "The momentum switched our way, and we could just feel it. The game turned really quickly." Jeff Teague scored 19 points, Korver added 17 and the Hawks helped their playoff chances with a 105-97 victory over the Boston Celtics on Wednesday night. With four games remaining in the regular season, Atlanta increased its lead to two games over the New York Knicks for the eighth and final Eastern Conference playoff spot. Avery Bradley finished with 24 points and Rajon Rondo had 19 points with 12 assists for Boston, which has lost nine straight. The Celtics dropped their 13th in a row on the road, breaking the franchise mark set during the final 13 games of 1978-79. The Hawks, who never trailed after Korver hit his second straight 3-pointer to make it 93-92 with 3:09 remaining, avoided losing at home for the second straight night to a team eliminated from playoff contention. Teague and Korver combined for 18 points, three assists, two rebounds and two steals in the fourth quarter. Paul Millsap finished with 14 points and 14 rebounds and Elton Brand added 13 points and 13 rebounds for the Hawks, who have won four of six. Atlanta lost to Detroit on Tuesday. "We knew we had to win," Teague said. "It was a must win for us, so we came out played with a lot of intensity in the fourth quarter." Boston, which blew a 19-point, third-quarter lead and lost at Detroit in its most recent game on Saturday, couldnt hold a nine-point advantage with 5:44 remaining. "In the second half we had a big lead and we let them back in it," Rondo said. "We have to get stops, and I start with myself and turning the ball over. They turned up the pressure in the fourth quarter and took us out of our offence." The Hawks next three games are against teams ahead of them in the East, including Saturday at home against two-time defending champion Miami. Atlanta matched its biggest lead of the first half at 14 when Shelvin Mack hit a 3 to make it 49-35 at the 6:31 mark of the second. But Rondo, who sat out the loss to the Pistons to rest his surgically repaired right knee, scored seven points in the last 2:34 of the second, helping Boston cut the lead to 56-51 at halftime. Rondo had a few dazzling moments in his first game in Atlanta since tearing his anterior cruciate ligament Jan. 25, 2013, at Philips Arena. Early in the third, Jared Sullinger stole the ball from Brand under the Atlanta basket and flipped the ball to Rondo, who bounced a pass halfway up the court that led to Jeff Greens fastbreak layup and cut the lead to 56-53. About 6 minutes later, Rondo stole an inbound pass from Brand and hit a runner. He followed on the ensuing possession by driving on Teague and hitting a jumper in the lane to give Boston its first lead at 67-66. The Celtics biggest lead was nine on Rondos two free throws with 5:44 remaining. But Boston was outscored 19-3 over the next 4:31. "Our defence was what really fueled it," Atlanta coach Mike Budenholzer said. "We picked up our pressure and our effort. We some turnovers and some steals that led to transition baskets, especially a couple of those transition 3s for Kyle."

Solomon Elimimian did not make the trip with the team after suffering what appeared to be a right leg injury in the teams regular season finale against the Calgary Stampeders.Hull City defender Andy Robertson is glad for the chance to return to action so soon after Scotlands 1-1 draw against Lithuania. Scotland endured a frustrating night at Hampden and only avoided defeat when James McArthur scored with a header a minute from time to cancel out a strike from Fedor Cernych and secure a 1-1 draw.The result was a setback to Scotlands hopes of finishing top of Group F, following an impressive 5-1 victory in Malta in September. But Gordon Strachans team travel to Slovakia for their third match in the group on Tuesday and Robertson, the left-back, is pleased there is no time to dwell on two lost points.In a league or in internationals, if you have a game in three days, it is perfect because the boys can get over it, Robertson said.We are focused on Slovakia already and that has got to be the case, because if you dwell on this result, it will end up being a negative one on Tuesday and thats how it works. Cernych celebrates after he scores against Scotland We have experience from that at club level, from the Championship and Premier League and the SPFL, playing Saturday, Tuesday, Saturday, Tuesday, so I am sure the boys will get their head round what has happened and move on to Tuesday.Robertson is adamant the draw was not a particularly bad result, with Slovenia winning 1-0 against No 2 seed Slovakia.Scotland are now second place in Group F with four points from two games -- behind England, who defeated Malta 2-0 at Wembley.dddddddddddde got a point at the end and we wont know if it is a good result, a bad result or just a decent result until the end of the group, the former Dundee United player said. McArthur celebrates after scoring against Lithuania Slovenia beat Slovakia, so we are still in second place with four points and the second seeds are sitting on none from two games.But we have them next and they will want to put that right and we will obviously want to put Saturday night right, so it will be a big game on Tuesday.The away games, you need to try to be positive. Yes, it would be great to win, but if we get a positive result we will take it. You just never know until the end of the campaign. Watch NOW TV Watch Sky Sports for just ?£6.99. No contract.
