The table-toppers headed into the second round sweeping Miami Heat. On the other hand, the Indiana Pacers faced Milwaukee Bucks in the first-round series of the playoffs. <\/p>

The Pacers maintained a heavy dominance over the two-time champions and took them down 4-1 to advance a step closer to the coveted Larry O’Brien Championship Trophy. <\/p>

The finished the season with 50 wins and 32 losses, which booked them the fourth spot in the standings. <\/p>

While the Cavs are high on confidence following their regular-season run, the Pacers have taken down the formidable Bucks in the previous round. Needless to say, it is going to be an exciting series. <\/p>

As action for round 2 is set to commence at Rocket Arena, Cleveland, let’s have a look at their injury reports. <\/p>
