Has any team in the history of the NBA ever had two 18 game streaks, winning or losing, within a two year period. The better this club gets the more you appreciate just what an unreal and historic win-loss turnaround this has been.

they need this season to help doc's win %. its like last years record even'd out the 06-07 season, now this ones gonna make it bill belichik like.

I'm confused when I keep hearing about how Mike D'Antoni has the Knicks playing good basketball right now, and that they're exciting to watch.

To me, they're a horrible basketball team that lives and dies by the three and plays absolutely no defense.  If I'm a fan of that team, I don't consider it fun to watch every opponent take it to the basket uncontested time after time, while my players are content to float around the 3 point line and would prefer an outside shot over contact in the lane any day.

Well, I personally don't like uptempo basketball, but there are 8 teams in the league with a worse defense and 18 that take more jump-shots than them.
