    This was going to happen this year. We were literally behind by the 4th and 5th decimal places at the beginning of the year.

    SAS 1977-2015 (NBA) 1888-1187 .614
    LA/MN/L 1949-2015 (NBA/BAA) 3198-2015 .613

    We have the highest winning percentage of any team in NBA history.

    I love this team.

    I read somewhere that Manu has the highest winning % of any player in NBA history? Is that true?

    When you compare apples to apples, the Lakers still have a substantial lead:

    You're the one cherry picking, only using SOME of the Laker's history. Apples to apples is franchise history against franchise history.

    So you get to decide what's apples to apples?

    Sure. How is mine less apples to apples? I'm comparing the entirety of one franchise against the entirety of another.

    Actually, you're not. You didn't include the 744 games that the Spurs played in the ABA.

    The NBA recognizes nothing from the ABA, not W/L or stats. Problem solved.

    I understand that and I'm not denying the accuracy of that information, just suggesting that a truer comparison of the two franchises would only include the 40 seasons that they've both played in the same league.

    Not much of an attack, but where did I attack yours at all?
