INDIANA 97, PHILADELPHIA 86 --------------------------- PHILADELPHIA (Ticker) -- Reggie Miller and the Indiana Pacers have been around too long to be intimidated by a noisy crowd on the road. Miller scored 29 points and the experienced Pacers took Allen Iverson and the First Union Center crowd out of the game, cruising to a 97-86 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers and a commanding 3-0 lead in their Eastern Conference semifinal series. Miller got off to a quick start, helping the Pacers withstand the early emotional thrust from the sellout crowd and never trail again. He scored 13 points in the first quarter as he ignored derisive chants from the Sixers' fans. After allowing Philadelphia back into Games One and Two, Indiana repelled every rally. In the fourth quarter, the Pacers held the 76ers without a basket for nearly six minutes, widening a four-point lead to 88-74. The Pacers were poised, taking advantage of the younger Sixers. They held a 47-42 advantage on the boards and ran off their rebounds, scoring 19 fast-break points against their quicker foes. Indiana also shot 50 percent (38-of-76) from the field while holding Philadelphia to 37.5 percent (33-of-88). Iverson also started quickly but finished poorly. He scored 32 points but shot just 13-of-33 from the field, including 2-of-8 in the fourth quarter, when Philadelphia collapsed and saw its 10-game home winning streak come to an end. Chris Mullin scored 15 points for the Pacers, who remained the only unbeaten team in the postseason and can advance to the conference finals for the second straight year with a victory in Game Four on Sunday. No team has ever won a best-of-seven series after losing the first three games.
