The Pacers entered halftime with a 41-point lead, having absolutely dominated during the opening two quarters on their home court at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. It was nothing short of a shellacking, as Indiana more than doubled the total points scored by the Cavs in the first half, 80–39.

Now, the top seed in the Eastern Conference is just a single game away from an early postseason exit.

The Indiana Pacers will take on the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference semifinals with a 2-1 series lead.
