Miami (29-14) was led by LeBron James with 28 points and Dwayne Wade with 17 — and this time the Heat were beaten at their own game.

Indiana shot a season-high 55.7 percent from the field.

The Pacers took control with a 13-0 first-half run that turned a 23-20 deficit into a 33-23 lead. They never trailed again.

Indiana led by as much as 19 points in the third quarter, and Miami never got closer than 12 in the fourth.
