The opponent is set. The dates are locked in. All that’s left is the wait for tipoff. The Eastern Conference semifinals between the top-seeded Cavs and No. 4 seed Pacers will begin Sunday, May 4 at Rocket Arena.

The Cleveland Cavaliers and Indiana Pacers will tip things off on May 4, and the series could extend to May 18 if it goes the full seven games. The Boston Celtics will play either the New York Knicks or Detroit Pistons starting on May 5, and they could keep going as late as May 19.

Key to the offensive explosion that put Orlando on their heels for good was Boston getting star Magic forward Polo Banchero in foul trouble.
