The top team at Eastern Conference also sent home. Cleveland, who won 15 games in a row to start the year, won 64 game-what in the regular season the second best performance in franchise history. The Cavaliers have not returned to the NBA final since 2018, the end of the LeBron James -era.

Pacers gather from the early 19-point hole

The Cavaliers were ready to go on Tuesday and after the first quarter of Donovan Mitchell's lead to 12 points after the first quarter. This lead came, even though the cavaliers from Deep 0-of-5 went.

But just after they fell for 19 years, the Pacers switched it on and turned the game completely over before half -time. They installed a long 27-9 run and cut the game back to just four points during the break. Haliburton also scored three different 3-point pointers in less than a minute, including one from the Cleveland Half Court logo.

Haliburton fell by 17 points in the first half and scored five 3 points, all of which came in the second quarter. Donovan Mitchell had 16 points, but only shot 3 out of 11 from the field and 0 out of 5 behind the arch for Cleveland.

In the third quarter she lasted a few minutes and head coach Rick Carlisle only a minute called a time after giving up two quick buckets-but the Pacers finally took the lead after a Pascal Siakam 3 pointer, just a few minutes later. This conceded an 11-0 run that wrote less than two full minutes.

The offensive of the Cavaliers also worsened most of the quarter, which only got worse after Mitchell limped the floor around the five -minute brand. Mitchell also left game 4 early after optimizing his ankle shortly before half -time. Mitchell didn't seem to do anything special, but he seemed to have more and more pain in the course of the quarter.

At the end of the period, the Pacers had built up a lead of nine points that felt like 20 points or more. They ended the quarter with 31-13 run. The Cavaliers shot a brutal 7-von-24 times during this time and went without a field gate during the worst. Mitchell made it back to the ground until the end of the period, and he immediately changed one and one.

Although the Cavaliers used a fast 10-2 burst to cut it back to a single point, it was as close as you. Haliburton reacted immediately with a dark that reseted Indiana. The Pacers then reacted to every push, which the cavaliers made the rest of the path-in one one-one left two 3-pointer from Mitchell and another with about 90 seconds to keep it. But Andrew Nembhard converted and one at the other end after struck a short bucket through Darius Garland. This enabled the Pacers the place they needed to drive to the nine-point victory in the last minute and officially complete the series.

Mitchell led Cleveland with 35 points and nine rebounds. Evan Mobley ended with 24 points and 11 rebounds, and De'andre Hunter set 12 points from the bank. The Cavaliers, who only went 9 out of 35 behind the bow, also missed four free throws in a row to end the game.

Haliburton performed with 31 points and eight templates for the Pacers. He shot 10 out of 15 with six 3-converter from the field. Pascal Siakam added 21 points and eight rebounds, and Nembhard ended with 18 points.

The Pacers will now wait for the winner of the New York Knicks-Boston Celtics series. The Knicks have a 3-1 lead against the Celtics, who have just lost Star Jayson Tatum against an Achilles injury and go on the way to game 5 on Wednesday evening. If the Knicks can win, it will be their first trip to the conference final since 1999.

While you still have a way to pull it off, Haliburton and the Pacers are now only four wins away from achieving their first final for 25 years.
