Uh the 1971 NBA champions were the Milwaukee Bucks.... (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1971_NBA_Finals)

They had 2 streaks that year....one in the first half, the other in the 2nd half.....

I think you need a history lesson.

2 Milwaukee 20 2/6/71 - 3/8/71 <NO CHAMPIONSHIP>

Huh? Milwaukee DID win the championship that year! http://www.nba.com/history/finals/19701971.html

[Findog]

That list is partially incorrect. Both the Suns and Mavs had 17-game streaks last year.
