Cavs vs. Pacers, Game 80

INDIANA PACERS (31-48) 116, CAVS (61-19) 113
at Quicken Loans Arena
Friday
TV: Fox Sports Ohio
RADIO: WTAM

WHAT HAPPENED: The Cavs had their 11-game home winning streak snapped on Friday. They also had won 10 in a row over the Pacers at The Q.

The Cavs finished 12-4 vs. the Central Division this season.

Cavs guard Delonte West was ejected in the third quarter. He must have said the magic word to official Marc Davis.

The Cavs resembled their JV team. Coach Mike Brown decided to rest LeBron James, Shaquille O'Neal, Antawn Jamison, Mo Williams and Daniel Gibson on Friday. If that group doesn't play on Sunday, they will get embarrassed by Orlando.

The Magic are still playing their regulars and want to get homecourt advantage over the Lakers.
