Best NBA team in history from texas?

[Gummi Clutch]

Is it widely accepted that it si thespurs?

[samikeyp]

Probably not, but it should be.

Some Rockets and Mavs fans wouldn't accept it if you had a gun to their heads.

[rjv]

you mean it was not the rolando blackman and mark aguirre led mavs?

[bishopospurs]

We do have more rings, and overall record
SA- 1603-1071 (.599) (I don't think this includes the Chaps)
Houston- 1737-1675 (.509)
Dallas- 1152-1194 (.491)

If someone says the Mavs I will laugh al day!

[Spursfan092120]

If someone says the Mavs I will laugh al day!
Someone will say the Mavs...guarantee it.

[Ghazi]

2006 Dallas Mavericks

[bishopospurs]

2006 Mavs? Aren't we talking about Franchises here?

[bishopospurs]

One not quite good enough team to win a championship does not make up for 20 previous years of suckage. If the Suns (Pat Garrity) and the Bucks (Robert Taylor) didn't suck at scouting that trend carries to the present.

[TheSullyMonster]

I think comparing individual teams would be more interesting. Say 2005 spurs vs 94 rockets, etc.

As a fracnchise it's pretty undeniable that its the spurs.

[sook]

Over the last decade probably
Spurs

Mavs

Rockets



All time


Spurs

Rockets

Mavs

[urunobili]

Spurs are the best sports franchise overall not only as an NBA one...

Spurs > Cowboys

[Muser]

Spurs are #3 ALL-NBA franchise in history


No.

Celtics
Lakers
Bulls
Spurs

[ambchang]

As a franchise, the Bulls really weren't that great. They had Jordan and Pippen for those 6 titles, but their other years (say the last 10 years, or from 76 to 87) were pretty pedestrial, or even bad.

Spurs on the other hand, were consistently good outside of a few rebuild years in the mid 80s.

This

[The_Worlds_finest]

I would put Lakers Celtics tied.

Spurs over bulls

[Duncanonu]

This question either means...

A. Who is the best franchise throughout it's history in the NBA? (among the Spurs, Mavs and Rockets) or

B. What is the best team (from an individual season) of all-time in the NBA? (among the Spurs, Mavs and Rockets)

which are we talking about?

[ohmwrecker]

It's not even a contest.

[SpurCharger]

Spurs Easily For the best Overall Franchise...... I think it would Have Been A good Series With those Rockets teams of the 90's against the 2005 or 2007 spurs...... Hakeem vs Duncan would have been A Great Matchup...... The Best A Mavs Fan Can Say Is 2006.... Lmao, I guess they Are satisfied with Losing in the Finals!!

[Duncanonu]

If it's the best Franchise, then no it isn't close.

[Duncanonu]

Here are the teams that might be said as the best Texas team of all-time. Any other team is ridiculous to say, and I think even a few of these listed here are pretty ridiculous too.

SPURS
1999 Won Title
2003 Won Title
2005 Won Title
2007 Won Title

Rockets
1994 Won Title
1995 Won Title
1997 LOST West Finals to Utah
1986 LOST NBA Finals to Boston

Mavericks
2006 LOST NBA Finals to Miami

There is a big difference between which team was better and which was more dominant. The most dominant team was probably the 1999 Spurs who started 6-8 when the strike ended. They then went 46-7 over their next 53 games, including a 15-2 playoff run. Was it the best team? who knows, but they were the most dominant.

[ShoogarBear]

Best NBA team from Texas was the 1983 Houston Cougars.

Too bad Guy V. Lewis had to screw it up.

[easy7]

from best to worst:


spurs

rockets

toros

chaparrals

mavericks
You forgot to put all the college and high school teams in Texas before the Mavs. :lmao
