Of course except for the fact that the Celtics are 23-5 against Western Conference teams.
It will be a short lived record any ways. Miami will need like 30 wins next year to break it

I repeat what others have said.
Who cares.
Actually, the Spurs brought in two guys as well, Duncan and Robinson. Robinson was injured the year before.
does it really count as most improved team when its a whole different team.
I swear I was going back to work and then I saw this one. I hate to be the one to say but....... That record of the Spurs should be erased. What a joke. They win 60 games,lose almost 60 the next year then win 60. Hmmmmmm what happened to make "such an improvement" I really do have work to do. I won't even bother.

Celtics equal best turnaround ever
Bucks spoil Arenas' comeback, knock off Wizards with buzzer beater

BOSTON — Kevin Garnett had 20 points and 11 rebounds, and the Boston Celtics tied the NBA record for the best single-season turnaround with a 92-77 win over the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday night.
With the league's best record at 60-15, the Celtics have 36 more wins than last season when they finished 24-58, the NBA's second-worst mark. The only other team to improve by that much was the San Antonio Spurs, who went from 20-62 in 1996-97 to 56-26 the next season, Tim Duncan's first.
Oh well records were made to be broken. Spurs just have to win another this year and nobody will care what the celts did.
Then forget the Tim Duncan record and go by the DRob one (1 game less).
I always thought that was the better one anyway, since it was a true turnaround, instead of a "record turnaround" following a record falloff due to Admiral being sidelined pretty much the entire year.
It'd already be broken by the Celtics, instead of them just tying it though.
a la the other team that failed in the boston area.
So what?
Why does it bother everyone so much that this stupid record was broken?
WGAF. The only record I care about is the one in the postseason, and ultimately, there are only two numbers in the postseason that matter. 16, 5.
It must matter, because there would be no such a thing as records, if records did not mean anything, yes?
How many teams have won a championship in the NBA, 13? Well, only one team had this record until now, and tomorrow, Boston will have it exclusively....that does matter...to me and to some other true Spurs' fans who like their team to have records that we can look back on with pride some day...but I must be wrong, huh TPark?
I say give Boston that record. Not a big deal.
At least we can claim the record for the most championships. Boston won't be taking that one away from us anytime soon!
Wow yeah thatIt must matter, because there would be no such a thing as records, if records did not mean anything, yes?

"biggest turnaround"
is a huge record to hang your hat on.
But hey, as you said last year "All this team has left is awards"
Man, you do not get it do you? Do you still think I was serious last year when I said that????? How dense can one be?
Most championships from 99-08 is more like it.
As serious as I was when I did my thing and you didn't believe me at the time.Man, you do not get it do you? Do you still think I was serious last year when I said that????? How dense can one be?
lol @ this thread
-Mars
the words of the day are- WHO CARES!!!
Did we really improve that year?
I always have thought that the record we set is a little misleading considering our main guys were injured the previous year.
The C's have really, really improved. They are a whole new team.
