Inspired by this question: What team has shortest longest losing streak within a season in MLB history?
What team has shortest "longest losing streak" within a season in NBA history? Off the top of my head, the 2015-2016 Golden State Warriors and the 1995-1996 Chicago Bulls are the most likely to have achieved short losing streaks given they lost 9 and 10 games throughout their respective seasons.
The 2015-2016 Golden State Warriors lasted an entire season without losing back-to-back games on their way of posting an all-time regular season best record of 73-9. Therefore, the shortest longest losing streak among NBA teams in one season is 1.
That very same season, the San Antonio Spurs lasted 78 games before losing back-to-back(-to-back) games. Next on the list was the 1984-1985 Celtics who lasted 74 games before losing back-to-back games.
In addition, the 1995-1996 Bulls lasted 45 games before losing back-to-back games. Also, the Warriors went 146 games without losing back-to-back games between 2015-2017.
