The Miami Heat won against the Indiana Pacers in Game 2 of the eastern conference finals on Tuesday night to tie things at 1-1 in the NBA playoffs standings and now LeBron James and company will go for a 2-1 series lead on Saturday night as the postseason series shifts to South Beach for Game 3.
The Pacers won the first game of the series in Indiana to take a 1-0 lead after a great performance from Paul George and heading into the next game the team had some momentum. Through three quarters Indiana looked to be in control, but Miami powered back and got the win to tie up the series. James and Dwyane Wade took over and each had double digits and now Miami has home court advantage for the time being.
Miami has always been able to rebound after a playoffs loss with a win and they did that in Game 2 and now they can get the lead in the next matchup. Miami has lost five times to go down in series and have come back in four of those and now the Pacers come in looking to rebound after being dominated late and having chances to win the game.
James and Wade are going for their third straight title and their fourth straight finals appearance and this is the second year in a row they are playing the Pacers in the east finals. The team won over them two years ago and now are playing them again for the playoffs and the winner of this series goes on to play the winner of the western conference final. That series has the Oklahoma City Thunder and San Antonio Spurs and now the Spurs are dominating and are up 2-0 on Kevin Durant and OKC.
