1. Game 2 played out similarly to Game 1, but with a one quarter delay. In Game 1, the Celtics picked up the intensity on defense in the third quarter, and followed it up with some good offense to run away with the game. In Game 2, it took until the fourth quarter for things to come together. But when it did come together, boy did it ever come together.
The Pacers shot just 4-of-17 from the field in the fourth quarter. Even more remarkable, all four made shots were three-pointers. Indiana went 0-for-9 on shots inside in the arc.
