Cleveland star LeBron James rested during the contest . Indiana now simply needs a win or a Bulls loss to secure playoff berth . Superstar forward Paul George elevated his play for one of his biggest performances of the season , dropping in a massively efficient 29 points on the first - seeded Cavaliers . Backcourt star Monta Ellis , meanwhile , chipped in 13 points and dished out eight assists . As a team , Indiana simply shot the lights out , converting on 56 percent of shots from the field and draining 16 three - pointers . Indiana 's massive shooting night was bolstered in part by 21 points and six threes from C.J . Miles off the bench . Cleveland , meanwhile , failed to take the record for most consectuive games with 10 or more made three - pointers . With eight threes and 47 percent from the field , the team still shot respectably , but clearly suffered on the defensive end in LeBron 's absence . All-Star Kyrie Irving led the way with 26 points , but overall the team could not get it done against the playoff - hungry Pacers . The Cavs have a chance to formally eliminate the Bulls on Saturday . Indiana , meanwhile , will take the court on Friday in Toronto .
