Indiana recovered behind its bench early in the fourth, cutting it to 80-79 on Darren Collison’s 3-point play with 9:57 remaining, but never got the lead back. Wade had six points and two assists during a 12-4 run over the next six minutes to put it away.

Danny Granger scored 20 points to lead the Pacers.
