2012-13 NBA Season Standings
The Miami Heat won back-to-back titles, beating San Antonio 4-3 in a classic Finals defined by Ray Allen's Game 6 three-pointer; Miami also rattled off a 27-game winning streak and posted a league-best 66-16 record. Oklahoma City had the West's best record (60-22) but lost Russell Westbrook to injury in the playoffs. The Los Angeles Lakers snuck in as the 7 seed with Dwight Howard, Steve Nash, and Kobe Bryant (who tore his Achilles late in the season).
Sourcing caveat: Indiana (49-32) and Boston (41-40) each show only 81 total games (not the usual 82): their April 16, 2013 matchup in Boston was postponed following the Boston Marathon bombing and was never made up, since it had no bearing on playoff seeding. This is confirmed by both teams' Basketball-Reference and Wikipedia pages and explains their non-standard win percentages (.605 and .506).
