What’s the greatest team to not...?

What’s the greatest team to not:

Win a championship

2015-16 Warriors. (73-9). The best regular season team ever but fell short in the finals. Broke a ton of regular season records

Make the finals

1972-73 Boston Celtics. (68-14)They lost to the Knicks in the ECF. 2018 Rockets comes close, but the Celtics were healthy and couldn’t win

Make the Conference Finals

2015-16 San Antonio Spurs(67-15) They had the best season record that was not also league-best record. A dominant team in a crazy year

Make it out of the 1st round

2006-07 Dallas Mavericks. Often considered one of the greatest chokes in NBA history, the Mavericks had an MVP Dirk Nowitzki, an All-StarJosh Howard, and a 67-15 record. They lost in 6 to a Warriors team with no stars

Make the Playoffs

2013-14 Phoenix Suns. Stuck in the West at its toughest point, they couldn’t make the playoffs. They had a 48-34 record. Had they been in the East, they would have been the 3rd seed.

Have an MVP on the roster

1971-72 Los Angeles Lakers. With a 69-13 record, they’re the 3rd best regular season team ever. Jerry West averaged 25/9 en route to his first ring. Despite all of this, a young Kareem Abdul-Jabbar won MVP
