Good call 🤝

Yeah, there’s gotta be a Celtic team in there somewhere.

Best Team EVER - The 1985-86 Boston Celtics season was the 40th season of the Boston Celtics in the National Basketball Association (NBA). They finished with the best record in the league at 67-15, including a 40-1 record at home (37-1 at the Boston Garden, 3-0 at the Hartford Civic Center). Those 40 home wins set an NBA record which would only be matched by the San Antonio Spurs in 2016. Widely regarded among the greatest teams in NBA history, their 67 total wins were one win shy of tying their franchise record of 68 wins set in 1972-73, and tied for seventh all-time for total wins by a team in a single season. Larry Bird won his third consecutive MVP award and Bill Walton won the Sixth Man of the Year Award. The team was anchored by the "Big Three" frontcourt of Bird, Kevin McHale and Robert Parish, which is frequently ranked among the best frontcourts in NBA history. In the playoffs, the Celtics swept the Chicago Bulls( MJ never defeated Bird as a player) in three games in the First Round, then defeated the Atlanta Hawks in five games in the Semi-finals, before sweeping the Milwaukee Bucks in four games in the Conference Finals to reach the NBA Finals for a third consecutive season. In the NBA Finals, the Celtics faced off against the Houston Rockets in a rematch of the 1981 NBA Finals, which the Celtics won in six games.

82-83 76ers...65-17...12-1 playoffs...NBA Champs...enough said.

I think the 1971 -1972 NBA champion the LA Lakers should have been also included here. They have a 69-13 regular season record and 33 regular season games winning streak.

IN FACT, Gail was the #1 scorer of that team that season (by .1 PPG over Jerry) - though Jerry dominates assists and outrebounded Gail some (Wilt DOMINATED the rebounding of course!).

@@bb55555555 There were more than 10 teams in the league by then.

Bulls had a tough matchup against the knicks in 91-92 with that knicks team led by Patrick Ewing, Charles Oakley and Tim McCormick ??? Seriously

McCormick does not fit among any of the other players highlighted on any of the teams.

Best team of all time 76ers with Wilt, Hal Greer, Wally Jones, Luke Jackson, Chet Walker and Billy Cunningham.

Great team, not the greatest of all time. Top 10, but I'd put them outside the Top 5. You forgot the most important part to that team, though - Alex Hannum, the ONLY coach to ever win a championship against the Russell-era Celtics - and he did it TWICE, once each with 2 teams.

1. Duncan/Ginobili/Parker/Horry Spurs 2. Bird/Chief/Cornbread Celtics 3. Shaq/Kobe Lakers 4. Pippen's Bulls 5. Olijawon/Drex/Smith/Horry Rockets. Spurs had the best TEAM play, if litmus is unbeatable teams. The best Bulls team wasn't beating the Spurs if a time machine existed. Magic's Lakers could be anywhere from 2-6 on my list. I'm looking at matchups. And individual seasons, not overall team history.

Let me guess! An algorithm did this because no human would have left off the 86 Celtics!!!!!! Ridiculous!😮🤷

1983 philadelphia 76ers

72-10 bulls,2000 Lakers,86 Celtics,89 pistons and 87 Lakers

I'M A WASHINGTON WIZARDS FAN..........I DON'T THINK WE HAD ONE..............

The 96-97 Bulls were better than the 91-92, and the 86 Celtics had better overall record than the 00-01 Lakers!

All the teams you listed were no doubt great teams, but what about the 1972 Los Ángeles Lakers? That team that reeled off a 33 game win streak during the season. I am a Cavaliers fan by the way.

Good suggestion!

I dont agree when people are saying kevin durant and the warriors...it should be stephen curry and warriors..because kd is not the face of the warriors..

Agree

anyone who doesnt have the 86 celtics here is crazy. they faced much harder teams than the 96 bulls did. there's arguments to be made they would have beaten the 96 bulls and even if they wouldnt theyd be just behind them. Bad list.

1996 Chigago Bulls best team ever.... 72 - 10 and a Championship. MJ at the absolute peak/experience ratio, with Pippen/Rodman and Phil at the helm. They would dominate any team in any era. 86 Celtics still had trouble with a Rookia MJ all on his own.

1.Celtics 1986 2. Lakers 1985 3.Bulls 1991 4. Spurs 1999 5. Pistons 1989

nice 1 unstoppabulls 95 - 96 nba season❤

The Lakers 1987 championship was their 17th? That's not even close! It was their 10th! Nor was it their second in a row. The champions prior to them were the 1985-86 Celtics (who should have been in this spot). Finals results are below. 1986: Celtics defeated Rockets in six 1987: Lakers defeated Celtics in six 1988: Lakers defeated Pistons in seven 1989: Pistons Defeated Lakers in four Use a sports almamac instead of relying on your faulty memory.

You cannot ignore the Boston Celtics in the 1960s with Bill Russell. I find your video and choices to be ludicrous for ignoring Bill Russell and the Celtics. You sounded like JJ Reddick. I also don’t think you can ignore Larry Bird and that era of the NBA. Without the transformation brought to the NBA by Bird and Magic the NBA was headed toward oblivion. Like Reddick you know the statistics but ignore the larger picture and the heart, skill and quality of the different eras of the NBA. This video was awful.

Christopher, we'd gladly watch your video and exchange notes. Let us know where to look!

Yup

2004 Pacers would have made this list if not for the Malice in the Palace. Prime Ron Artest,Jermain Oneal, Reggie Miller, Dale Davis, Stephen Jackson

Automatically disqualified itself as a legitimate video when recounting the 92 New York Knicks it said: ".. featuring players like Patrick Ewing, Charles Oakley and Tim mccormick..." Tim mccormick. Not Mark jackson. Not Gerald wilkins. Not Xavier mcdaniel. Not John starks. Tim mccormick. Everything else after that was a joke and I turned off the video.
