The NBA's regular season is like a long marathon, with 82 races, 29 different teams as opponents, and the race spanning up to six months. The regular season record will also determine the final playoff seat, and whether you can have home advantage also depends on the regular season record. So laying a good foundation is very critical. So what are the perfect starts in the history of the NBA? 94 Rockets 15 consecutive wins, 16 Warriors did not win the championship is the most regrettable.
The Celtics have won 14 straight
The Celtics in 1958 were strong, they had just won a championship the year before, and the team was at the peak of the Hall of Fame players such as Bill Russell, Bob Cousy, Henthorne, Sam Jones and other Hall of Famers. At the start of the season, the Celtics achieved a magnificent record of 14 wins and 0 losses. However, they lost the finals that year, which was a great pity. You must know that between 57 and 66 years, the Celtics won 9 championships in 10 years, and the only championship lost was the year with the best start.
The Lone Ranger has won 14 straight
At the beginning of the new century, the strength of the Lone Ranger team was very strong. The Lone Rangers at that time had a troika lineup, at the peak of Nowitzki + Finley + Nash, the strength was excellent, from the backcourt to the front line to the interior line, the strength was very balanced. So at the beginning of the 2003 season, they also won 14 consecutive victories, which can be said to be the best. In the end, they achieved a top record of 60 wins, and also played in the Western Conference Finals, unfortunately losing to the Spurs.
The Nationals have won 15 straight
This is a team from ancient times, and the Washington Nationals have not been in the league for a long time, but they have performed very well. In the 1948-1949 season, the Nationals started the season by winning 15 consecutive games, ending with a record of 38 wins and 22 losses. That year, the Nationals reached the final finals, but they also regrettably lost and failed to reach the top.
The Rockets have won 15 straight
The Rockets in '94 were legendary, when Jordan had just retired and the league entered an era of strife. The Rockets are led by Olajuwon single-core, and if you only look at the lineup, it is not so strong. However, they had good chemistry, the peak dream was a big kill, the role players performed their duties, and finally they started with a perfect record of 15 wins and 0 losses. Under the leadership of Big Dream, the Rockets won 58 regular season games, and the playoffs also rose to the top in one fell swoop, winning the championship
The Warriors have won 24 straight
In the summer of 2015, the Warriors won the championship. After winning the championship, the chemical reaction within the team also changed qualitatively, and the strength was further improved. The Splash Brothers are at their peak, Green is integrated in attack and defense, Iguodala is very efficient, and with barnes, Barbosa, Livingston and other players, the Warriors are unstoppable, creating the best start in history of 24 wins and 0 losses at the beginning of the season. Unfortunately, the Warriors were reversed 3-1 by the Cavaliers in the Finals that year and failed to win the championship.
