That '07 Mavs team actually started the season 0-4. They then went on a 52-5 stretch or something like that...crazy that they won 67 games that season still after that start.

it's a nice record, but it doesnt mean anything if you dont become champions.

next season where they do the same thing again.



The 05-06 Pistons were on their way to break 72-10 more than halfway
through the season, they were 37-5 at one point and they finished closer
to 60 than 70.

Yup. I don't think it's about teams not caring or trying. It's a combination of things. It's a record that quite possibly will never be touched but yet it's thrown around by the media (and then the kids) like it has a chance every single year of happening. It's not even on the radar for me for things to potentially see in a given year.

Here is the bottom line: Only two teams (MJ's 95-96 team and 96-97 team) have gotten past the 67-win mark since the beginning of the 70's. Yet you have media people who think it's actually worthwhile to spend their time saying the Heat could go 73-9 or better.

that 96-97 team is always overlooked.. almost repeating a 70 win season the year after is truly remarkable. ( 69-13 )

Not by me. In fact, I think it will be tougher for a team to average over 70 wins over two seasons than break 72-10.

man, i disagree with alot of your laker/kobe related opinions but i just thought about what you posted.  the 95-96 and 96-97 bulls averaged 70.5 wins a season over 2 seasons. that is tougher and more impressive to me imo the dominating the league for one season.  it's crazy how good that 96-97 team was and how they followed up the 95-96 team.



If I'm not mistaken, the 96-97 Bulls team even jumped out to a better start than the previous season's team that won 72 games. Very impressive feat

That's not even worth betting on. Lakers always manage to lose teams they're not suppost to, have losing streaks ETC.

Phil Jackson has no intentions of trying to break his own damn record and I'm sure him and the Lakers can care less about it when they're trying to 3-Peat.

REAL Laker fans know it will most likely not happen either. Regardless of how well they're playing.

This is why being undefeated is not such a good thing. Whenever we lose everyone's going to make a big deal about it.
