NBA Playoffs: Wizards Knock Off Bulls In Chicago Again; Pacers Bounce Back To Square Series With Hawks; Raptors Likewise Against Nets

At Chicago:

At Indianapolis:

A 27-point, 10-rebound, six-assist performance from Paul George lifted the Indiana Pacers to a 101-85 home win over the Atlanta Hawks in game two of their first-round series, now deadlocked at one game apiece.  Luis Scola came off the bench to add 20 points to the Pacers' coffers.

At Toronto:

DeMar DeRozan scored 30 points as the Toronto Raptors squared their opening-round series with the Brooklyn Nets at one game apiece following their 100-95 game-two home win.
