The Pacers outlasted the Heat 102-96. Ugly basketball, but the Pacers did just enough. The Heat came in with something to prove after a loss; Heat's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Pacers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.
