    #1 . Spurs

    If you're a Spurs fan who believes in omens, ponder this while waiting for the next home game on Feb. 23: Six of the previous seven teams to win 40 games as fast as San Antonio just did went on to win the whole thing.

    Great trivia question: The only team that didn't is?

    It has to be the Dallas Mavericks, but I have not looked it up.

    It's like trying to pick which eye to gouge out with a rusty spoon.

    The 2006-2007 Mavericks secured their place in history with the franchise's best record ever, earning the first seed in the NBA Playoffs. Dallas faced eighth-seeded Golden State in the first round of the playoffs and were upset 4-2 in the series but their regular season accomplishments make them one of the best teams in NBA history. Their .817 winning percentage ranked sixth all-time among NBA teams. They were also the sixth fastest team in league history to reach the 50-win mark doing it in just 59 games.

    So they had to be in the top 7 to get to 40.

    The 2007 Mavs didn't get their 40th win until Feb 9th (40-9). They won the next twelve games (and 21 of their next 23).

    That team started 0-4 which set back their pace a bit.
