Indiana has been an underdog all series, although they are undefeated in Cleveland so far. After dominating Game 1 and battling back in Game 2, the Pacers have shown that they are simply the more competitive and well-rounded team, offering enough depth to go on a Finals run.

The Cavs were expected to push past the Pacers; a team they seemed more talented than heading into the series but find themselves on the brink of elimination.
