Indiana Pacers Form
Indiana progressed to the conference semi-finals by beating Milwaukee in five games in the first round.
The Pacers secured their place in the playoffs by going 50-32 during the regular season to finish fourth in the Eastern Conference, and they made a strong start to the postseason.
They made the most of home advantage as they opened up a 2-0 lead with a 117-98 and 123-115 victories over the Bucks.
Indiana failed to make it three-in-a-row as they were beaten 117-101 in their first road game of the series, but they would not be beaten again.
The Pacers won the second meeting in Milwaukee, 129-103, and then returned home to clinch the series with a 119-118 victory in overtime.
They made a winning start to this series too, as they ran out 121-112 winners in Game 1 in Cleveland.
Cleveland Cavaliers Form
Cleveland made straightforward work of their first round series, sweeping Miami in four games to ease into the conference semi-finals.
The Cavaliers, who finished top of the Eastern Conference with a 64-18 record, made a dominant start to the postseason as they blew out the Heat at home, 121-100.
Their second victory of the series was less dominant, but a 121-112 victory was enough to ensure they took a two-game lead to Florida.
Cleveland gave themselves the chance to clinch on the road as they ran over the Heat in a 123-87 win in Game 3.
And that is exactly what the Cavaliers did, as they destroyed Miami in the most one-sided game of the series, winning 138-83.
Cleveland's perfect run in the postseason ended in Game 1 of this series though, as they were beaten 121-112 at home on Sunday.
Verdict
Indiana have been one of the NBA's hottest teams since the start of the year.
They boast an excellent recent record against the Cavaliers and have covered repeatedly in recent trips to Cleveland too, so give us the Pacers and the free buckets.
