    Tyreke Evans and his New Orleans teammates took notice when they saw Houston coach Kevin McHale sub out his entire starting lineup early in the third quarter.

    The Pelicans saw it as a chance to earn some extra rest of their own.

    "We brought it in the huddle and just said, `Keep putting the pressure on them, don't stop being aggressive," Evans recalled. "We did that. We got a big lead where we could sit down and rest."

    Ryan Anderson scored 22 points, Evans added 21 and New Orleans routed the Rockets 111-83 on Friday night.
