The Indiana Pacers defeated the Miami Heat to take a 1-0 series lead in the eastern conference finals by the score of 107-96 and Game 2 is coming on Tuesday at Bankers Life Fieldhouse for Indy and the defending champions.
LeBron James did his best and Dwyane Wade led Miami in scoring and now they have to rally for the fifth time under the Big 3 era after losing the first game of a series. The team has done it four straight times and now they will have to do it again to win their third straight championship and this is the third year in a row that the two teams have faced off. The teams played two years ago in the second round and last season they met in the east finals, but Miami had home court advantage.
Wade had 27 points in the game against Indiana and Miami couldn't get things together to get the win and now they have to rally from a 1-0 series deficit. The break in the series comes after Game 2 and that will be from Tuesday to Saturday for the next game and that could be big for the Heat. Paul George led the way with 24 points, while Roy Hibbert continued to bounce back with nine rebounds and Lance Stephenson led with eight assists.
