INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - The Detroit Pistons lived up to Rasheed Wallace's guarantee of a playoff victory over the Indiana Pacers with an 89-76 win in Game Four on Sunday, tying the series at two games apiece. In other playoff games Sunday, the Dallas Mavericks defeated the Phoenix Suns 119-109 and the Seattle SuperSonics beat the San Antonio Spurs 101-89, also tying those series at 2.
Just as they did a year ago, the Pistons delivered on Wallace's prediction this time tying their second-round series. Chauncey Billups scored 29 points, and Wallace had 17 points, 12 rebounds and a playoff career-high five blocks.
"It was answering the bell," Wallace said. "We couldn't afford to go down 3-1 to this team."
