Roy Hibbert had 18 points to lead the Pacers, who cut a 41-19 deficit after the first quarter to a four-point deficit at halftime. The Pacers then took a 73-68 second-half lead before Miami rallied.
Chris Bosh added 22 points and eight rebounds for Miami, which scored 19 of the game's final 31 points to secure the victory.
"Our competitive will is . . . unusual. We're very good going down the stretch in winning time. That said, we need to push for a championship-level consistency." -- Heat coach Erik Spoelstra
