Indiana closed out a dominant series against the top-seeded Cavaliers in Game 5. "It’s a special feeling," Tyrese Haliburton said.

Indiana coach Rick Carlisle put it best in summing up his team’s finishing punch in the Eastern Conference semifinals. The Pacers’ 114-105 victory over the Cavaliers in Game 5 on Tuesday night was similar to the first two games of the series.

The victory is the first domino to fall in setting up a potential Pacers-Knicks rematch in the conference finals, something that hasn’t happened in 25 years.
