The Cleveland Cavaliers had a good opportunity to take down the 2-0 Pacers in Indiana, but rookie Kyrie Irving missed a wide open layup as time expired with the game tied 84-84.
The Pacers struggled with their shot all night (38-percent), but found new life after Irving's miss, outscoring the Cavs 14-7 in the five minute overtime period. Nine of those points came from Danny Granger, who finished with a game-high 22 points, seven rebounds and four assists.
The No. 1 overall pick from last year's draft, Irving, was the leader for the Cavs with 20 points on 8-of-19 shooting and three assists. Anderson Varejao had a double-double for Cleveland with 14 points and 13 rebounds.
Three different Pacers recorded double-doubles -- Roy Hibbert, David West, and Tyler Hansbrough -- and six players in all scored in double figures.
The Cava go back to Quicken to play the Nets on Sunday.
