    After the Bucks blew them out by 30 points a night earlier in Atlanta, the Hawks were focused on revenge Saturday.

    They got it, winning 90-85 for their 15th win in their past 17 games.

    "You never want to lose two in a row in this league," said Kyle Korver. "It is hard to beat a team in this league two nights in a row and we didn't want to let it happen to us."

    The Hawks won despite shooting 36 percent, including 9-of-29 on 3-pointers.

    Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer credited his team's rebounding and defense, as Atlanta outrebounded Milwaukee 51-47, including grabbing 17 offensive rebounds, and forced 19 turnovers that resulted in 32 points.
