The Pacers' Paul George Has Gradually Exploded All At Once
After two games in Miami, it's no longer assured that the Heat — reigning champs, winners of 27 straight in the regular season, top seed in the Eastern Conference, proud owners of fans like these — are going to dispatch the Indiana Pacers quickly, or for that matter, at all.

Paul George Is The Star Who'll Save The Pacers From Paul George
Last night's Eastern Conference final opener between the Heat and Pacers was a story of two buzzer-beaters, and all the fun of the game lay in the difference between the two.
