The Indiana Pacers evened their Eastern Conference first - round playoff series against the visiting Toronto Raptors with a 100 - 83 victory Saturday in Game 4 at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. Up to this point in the series, the Pacers had seemingly placed an inordinate amount of pressue on their most talented player, Paul George. The All-Star forward had led Indiana in scoring over the first three games, but they'd received rather modest contributions from the other members of the starting five. The key to a rather surprising double - digit victory Saturday was a departure from this trend, as Ian Mahinmi and George Hill managed matching 22 - point totals, marking the first time that either had eclipsed the 20 - point mark in the series. This made for a much more balanced scoring performance for the home squad, allowing them to knot the series up at two. The Raptors were led by Jonas Valanciunas' 16 points, six rebounds and a block. Kyle Lowry followed with 12 points, five assists, three rebounds and a steal. DeMarre Carroll matched Lowry's point total and added six boards. One game after getting over the 20 - point mark for the first time in the series, DeMar DeRozan was back to single - digit scoring, collecting eight points, six rebounds, four assists and a steal. Patrick Patterson led the second unit with eight points, two assists, a rebound and a block. Mahinmi added ten rebounds, five assists, two steals and a block to his stat line, while Hill complemented his scoring total with four boards and three assists. George pitched in with 19 points, four rebounds, two assists and a steal. Solomon Hill paced the bench with seven points, three assists, three rebounds and a steal. The series now shifts back to the Air Canada Centre for Game 5 on Tuesday night.
