Welcome to the first edition of the 2012-2013 ISBA season previews. We will preview all the human coached teams. Making the big debut in this column will be the Indiana Pacers, coached by a great contributor to the ISBA community and a really solid coach Hrvoje aka Bounce.

The Indiana Pacers are an eastern conference team and will be battling some hall of fame coaches and teams, y'all might have heard of the Miami Heat and the Boston Celtics. We all expect from them to be in the conversation with those teams when the season starts and finishes and of course when the playoffs begin. With the core they have of George, Granger, Hibbert, Hill and veteran West they can give a scare or two to the big guns in the East. They should be able to get the 3rd spot in the Eastern Conference, well if they play extremely well, they could dethrone the Heat/Celtics. Will they be able to do it? We'll see, but with pesky Croatian blood of Hrvoje and the Future and the veteran leadership from DWest they might scare a lot of great teams.
Fab 5: G Hill G George F Granger F West C Hibbert
Player to Watch: Paul George

he's still billed at 6'8 on NBA.com, and that's probably what 2K follows

Very nice.
I can't imagine Granger being traded unless it was a blockbuster deal like LaMarcus Aldridge, etc. Granger, David West, 1st round pick for LA would probably get approved. That'd be tempting.
Pacers will definitely make the playoffs. Especially if the East is a gimmick like last time and you can make playoffs with under .500 record. I see the Pacers finishing at least 5 games above .500, and probably a lot better.

Yup it's been copyrighted by NBA & EMI. I'd suggest using DailyMotion as they don't block stuff (?).
Like Bryan said Granger won't go anywhere unless there's a major player coming in return. I voted 'Yes'.

Thanks, I use Video Pad Editor and convert on HD quality...
I'll use also different songs and pace for exact coaches and teams, this electro feel suits Hrvoje perfectly...
