Just like they did in Game 1, the Miami Heat used a strong second half to pull away from the Pacers for a 109-100 victory in Game 2 on Thursday afternoon in Orlando.
With the win, the Heat now have a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven series, meaning Indiana must win four of five games to advance to the second round of the playoffs for the first time since 2014.
Miami went 18-for-35 from 3-point range in the victory. Sharpshooter Duncan Robinson went 7-for-8 from beyond the arc on his way to a game-high 24 points. Goran Dragic added 20 points and six assists, while Jimmy Butler chipped in 18 points, seven rebounds, six assists, and two steals for the Heat.
