NBA professional basketball team season
NBA professional basketball team season
The 2012–13 Indiana Pacers season was 46th season of the franchise and 37th season in the National Basketball Association (NBA). The regular season ended with a 49–32 win–loss record ; the team only played 81 games due to a game versus the Boston Celtics being cancelled following the Boston Marathon bombing . The cancelled matchup would have no effect on the already final Eastern Conference seeding anyway. The Pacers advanced to their first Conference finals in nine years after defeating the Atlanta Hawks and New York Knicks , each in six games. In the conference finals, they fell to the defending champion Miami Heat in seven games. The Heat would go on to win its third NBA championship and second straight overall after defeating the San Antonio Spurs in a seven-game NBA Finals series.
The season was the first since 1998–99 without Jeff Foster , who retired after 2011–12 season .
