Advantage, Indiana Pacers.
The fourth Pacers in the Eastern Conference took part in the second round of the series as a heavy underdog with the most important Cleveland Cavaliers. But suddenly, the ball was on their court.
After the first game against Cleveland, they overcame a 20-point deficit and won two games on the way as Tyrese Haliburton led 2-0.

Indiana was slowly eliminated, but Cleveland looked like they were going to go on the road late in the series as they led by seven seconds, less than 50 seconds.
But Aaron Nesmith threw down the dunk and Donovan Mitchell was asked to attack two seconds later. Pascal Siakam scored a layup in 27.1 seconds, making it a three-pointer.
The Cavaliers called the timeout but did nothing because they flipped the ball on the inbound. They then fouled Haliburton, who made only one of two, but Haliburton got his own rebound. He then hangs up and cashes in two-thirds of his return to rise 120-119, which will be the final score with 1.1 seconds left.
It's Cleveland's Brokener, who lost 48 points in a failed effort at Mitchell's best player.

In the last 12 minutes, Halliburton scored 11 out of 19 points.
This is the first two games of the playoff series since 1994 against Orlando.
The Cavaliers lack three key players: NBA Defensive Player of the Year Evan Mobley (left ankle) and Key Reserve De'andre Hunter (right thumb) injured in Game 1, while Darius Garland (left toe) missed his fourth playoff game.
