Well, that was exciting!
For 41 minutes and 29 seconds (89 minutes and 29 seconds if you include Game 4), the Indiana Pacers held a lead against the Toronto Raptors. In Game 5, the largest deficit was 17 points. By all accounts, Toronto shouldn’t have won Game 5. Then this happened:
The Toronto Raptors, down 13 points to start the 4th quarter, opened a 21-2 run on the Pacers to comeback and take their first lead since they won Game 3! To put this in context, Indiana spent 36 minutes dominating Toronto in almost every way, scoring 90 points on 29 of 58 team shooting, 50 percent for those following along.
