More than fifteen teams in the history of the NBA have managed to win all of the matches during a month of competition. However, only seven teams have achieved this with at least 16 matches on the program, or more than one victory every two days. Among them, we find the Spurs version of 1995/96, who were only the second at the time, after the legendary Lakers of 1971/72, authors of the longest winning streak in history with 33 consecutive victories. .
It was on March 31, 1996, against Charles Barkley's Suns, that Bob Hill's men (Gregg Popovich would take charge the following season) validated this feat with a 97-83 victory. For the record, their series of 17 consecutive successes, which began on February 29, will end on April 2 against these same Suns.
The record for the Hawks
During this immaculate month (the same season, the Bulls went 14-0 in January), it is of course David Robinson, MVP of last season, who will carry the Texans with 25.3 points, 11.9 rebounds and 3.2 blocks. average.
After the Lakers in December 1971 and the Spurs in March 1996, it will be the Clippers in December 2012, the Spurs again in March 2014 and the Warriors in November 2015 who will post this perfect 16-0 in a month.
However, the NBA record belongs to the Hawks, who won 17 matches without losing a single one, in January 2015 while the Suns are the team to have achieved the player's last performance. Devin Booker and his team had a perfect November (16-0) during the 2021/22 season.
