Raptors Win Second Straight, Take 2-1 Lead Over Pacers

DeMar DeRozan and Kyle Lowry scored 21 points each to help Toronto rout Indiana 101-85 and take a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven series while reclaiming the home-court advantage they squandered six days earlier.

In the first two games, DeRozan and Lowry were a combined 15 of 63 from the field and just 1 of 17 from 3-point range but DeRozan made his first three shots, scored 12 points in the first quarter and went 7 of 19 from the field and 7 of 9 at the free throw line.

 

Lowry finished 8 of 21 from the field, was 4 of 10 from 3 and scored 12 points in the fourth quarter.

 

Indiana, which was led by Paul George with 25 points, 10 rebounds and six assists, spent the rest of the game futilely playing catch-up. The Pacers couldn't get closer than 12 points during the final 33 minutes of a downright embarrassing night.
