which NBA team has the longest winning streak?

[120dB]

Great for Steve Nash that the Sun's winning streak is at 17 games. What is the record for the NBA's longest winning streak? Probably the Bulls own that record eh?

[Bosco]

The answer to that question would be the 1972 LA Lakers, who rolled off a nifty little 33 game win streak. Not only is that the longest win streak in the NBA, but it's also the longest win streak in professional sports.

The Suns have a little way to go.

That is an impressive feat !
