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?

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.
