We are continuing our list of objectively trying to identify the best NBA teams of all time. As you may have noticed, this list is being done in chronological order and chronological order only. The first five super squads were from 1960 to 1983, so the last five super squads are from the last 40 years. As a refresher, here are the qualifiers to be eligible. One, the team had to win the NBA title that season, so that will eliminate squads like the 73-9 Golden State Warriors who didn’t finish the deal. Two, the team had to win at least 60 games in the regular season; a truly elite team has to prove it over the long haul, not just in the playoffs. Three, only one team will be chosen per era for dynasties, so only one team of MJ’s, Larry’s, and Magic’s. 

As far as criteria, much data will be used, but some determining factors will be postseason record, margin of victory, Hall of Famers on the team, quality of opponents, offensive efficiency, and defensive efficiency. This is no easy list to compile. It’s hard to leave some historic teams off, so this will be in two installments. Now that the guidelines have been laid out, in no particular order, here are some of the best NBA teams of all time … part two.
