The Pacers are back in the Eastern Conference finals for the first time since 2013. They upset the No. 3-seeded Philadelphia 76ers in the second round to advance to the conference finals.

The Celtics, meanwhile, have been one of the best teams in the league all season. They finished the regular season with a 51-31 record and won their first-round series against the Brooklyn Nets in four games. In the second round, they defeated the Milwaukee Bucks in seven games.
