Pacers final score: Pacers shoot past Cavaliers 135-126

No lead was safe tonight between the Indiana Pacers and Cleveland Cavaliers, both sides bringing everything to the table offensively in a certified barnburner. The game featured 16 lead changes and 11 ties as the Pacers came out thanks to a strong close to the game, though perhaps it was also just their turn to make a run.

One of the big reasons both teams were able to continuously overtake the other on the scoreboard was due to reliable plays on both ends. For Cleveland, it was a devastating attack inside; they scored 72 points in the paint and had 25 second chance points on 17 offensive rebounds.
