The 2012 Eastern Conference Playoffs have moved to the second round and the NBA has released most of the schedule for the Miami Heat vs. Indiana Pacers series. In the first round of the 2012 NBA Playoffs, the Heat defeated the New York Knicks in five games. The Pacers also took only five games to eliminate the Orlando Magic and now the two winners meet in the second round.
Miami is now the top seed remaining in the Eastern Conference and gets home court advantage as a result. It means that both Game 1 and Game 2 will get played at AmericanAirlines Arena down in Miami. The series will tip off on Sunday, May 13, with ABC covering the first game for a national audience. The teams will then travel to Indiana for the next two games in the series.
There are some pieces of information missing from the league at this time, including when Games 5-7 will take place. That part of the schedule will only take place if the series lasts more than four games. With the 2012 NHL Playoffs taking place at the same time, the league is probably just waiting to decide which times would best suit the series.
