One of the longer-term worries, though, is West's forthcoming free agency. The Pacers' veteran leader openly loves his situation in Indiana, which certainly gives Indy justified cause for optimism when it comes to re-signing the 32-year-old this summer.

But those home victories are the only ones Indiana truly needs in order to grab the series victory. Josh Smith was keyed i...

The end result was a huge bench display that helped the Pacers through the first half before working to put the cap on the Game 2 victory in the fourth quarter.
