PACERS / BUCKS

The Indiana Pacers beat the Milwaukee Bucks in 5 games and are moving on to the Eastern Conference Semifinals. 

The Bucks gave the Pacers everything they had, but they lost Damien Lillard to a torn achilles in game 4, Gary Trent Jr was too inconsistent, and Kyle Kuzma was nonexistent. 

Don't get me wrong, even if Lillard was healthy, I don't think the Bucks would of beaten the Pacers.

The Pacers are the better team. Indiana had 5-6 players in double digits in the 4 games they won. When Nesmith, Siakam, Turner, Haliburton, Nembhard, and McConnell are playing well not many teams can beat the Pacers. 

The Pacers were down 13-30 after the first quarter, but they clawed their way back to force overtime. In overtime, Indiana was down by 7 points with 35 seconds left. They score the last 8 points. No NBA team in the last 50 years has won in the playoffs when being down by 7 with 35 seconds left. The Pacers did just that to finish off the Bucks.

Now the Indiana Pacers will take on the top seeded Cleveland Cavaliers on Sunday May 4th. 

The Pacers beat the Cavs 3 of their 4 games this year...
