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.
This season also featured brothers Ben and Tyler Hansbrough.
