I think we should win in 5 because we have home court but who knows.

If the Pacers win the first game this will be a good series! The Pacers have been excellent at home, and awful on the road...So let's hope they steal game 1 since the Cavs are not in Playoff mode yet

I'm still wondering how we even got here lol. Cleveland better have some balls about them and make an example of Indiana.

Ind has no bigs which is the Cavs weakness....the Cavs will throw out Kyrie, Jr, Korver, LB and Love and dominate from 3 like they did during the regular season...Korver just hit another 3 vs Ind when thats all he does....I want to say they avg 17 made 3s vs Ind so if they dont make an adjustment...this is a sweep....Cavs caught a break dropping down #2....they probably wont see Bost and avoid Chic who has toughness and champions on their team(Rondo and Wade) and cause problems for the Cavs

Over under 3.5 OT periods for the series?

Not sure missing Boston is a positive

Honestly believe they are the 4th best eastern playoff team

I don't think they beat was tor or cle in a series

Not trying to hate but it feels like they are still another player or two away. They have crazy assets and picks so they will likely make the jump in 2 years but will be competing with the bucks at that point who should have Giannis entering his prime

Pacers have been very mediocre overall this year. Their Defense is worse with the players they dropped and brought in. But they have offensive weapons and 3 point shooting. If PG plays like the star he is and defends Lebron, it could be a series that just isn't a sweep for the Cavs like recent years.

Also, Lance going full Lance on the Cavs could be interesting. Cavs should win, but this probably won't be as easy as Lebron's past first round series, especially the way they closed out the season.

Rate the best players in the East after LeBron:

Paul George
Kyle Lowry
John Wall

Sound right? That's the Cavs path this year. A far cry from superstar-less Detroit and Atlanta last year.

In fact, if you consider that Lowry wasn't up to par last year - in the past two years the best player the Cavs played against in the EC playoffs was arguably Derrick Rose...or I guess Butler..

Not going to lie, I'm a little concerned with how this team has been playing. Going to be tough sledding this year.

Peoplr predicting a sweep may be overlooking Indianas splits, they are a 29-12 team at home, nrarly as good as the Cavs, It's entirely realistic that they take at least 2 games at home in this series, even if they can't steal one in Cleveland.

Pacers always play the Cavs tough. Look for CJ Miles to hit about 25+ threes in this series.

You guys need to stop it.

The Cavs have played like trash all year and the Pacers are better then their record. They have talent on that team.

This is going a minimum of 6 games. Cavs arent good enough to sweep up dirt off the ground let alone sweep an NBA team.

We'll see whether the lightswitch is in effect. If it is we should have a 4-5 game butt wupping (Avg. MOV 12+). If it isn't we should see Cleveland win a tight series with several close games.

Yeah Korver is 14/17 from three in two games against them this year...Miles is averaging 17 ppg and 3.5 threes per game (on 55% from three) against the cavs. Those two could have big series, especially if they're guarding each other.

Cracks me up how I read Cavs have easily path to finals and they play nobody and they have no contest. Then you have a good amount of people talking about a 6 games series. Gotta love realgm sometimes
