Result:
WIN

The Indiana Pacers finished just ahead of the Miami Heat and are competing in the NBA 1st Round as the #4 overall seed. The Heat enter as the #5 seed, but I think those numbers don't identify as to how good this Miami team really is. The Pacers are an injured team, and while they finished 4th best in the league, I don't think they are the 4th best Eastern Conference team in the playoffs. Jimmy Butler was the difference in Game 1 and would suspect he will also be in Game 2. The Pacers are without Sabonis, and Olidipo is not at 100% yet, and the Pacers are going to have a tough time overcoming the injuries. Make the play on Miami.
