In NBA, the team with the best regular season record competes for the championship, and the worst team competes for the No. 1 pick. We have previously counted the probability of the top team winning the championship, and the team with the worst record also won the No. 1 pick. Got the pick? Let's take a look at the ten teams with the lowest winning rates in NBA history and see what their final outcomes will be.
No. 10: 1953 Philadelphia Warriors, record 12 wins and 57 losses, winning rate: 17.4%!
This is an older period than Russell and Chamberlain . At that time, there were already 69 regular season games. At that time, Philadelphia was occupied by the Warriors , and the 76ers predecessor Sylla The Mounds Nationals played their home game in , New York, . It wasn't until the Warriors moved away in 1962 that the Nationals moved in!
Johnston beat McCann to win the scoring title!
At that time, the core of the team was Johnston, who averaged 22.3 points per game and beat George McCann to win the scoring title. Unfortunately, the other core Joe Fulks had reached the twilight of his career, and ended up with 12 wins and 57 losses. The Warriors fell to the bottom of the league, and the draft received no attention at all at that time. The team's source of new recruits mainly relied on scouts to find in private, so there were only 7 rookies in the 1953 draft!
ninth place: 1983 Rockets, record 14 wins and 58 losses, winning rate: 17.1%!
The Rockets were still a strong team in 1982. However, because there was no Bird Clause protection and limited by the salary cap, the Rockets were unable to offer a larger contract. The Rockets watched helplessly as Moses Malone, who had just won the MVP, was eliminated by Philadelphia 76 The team took it away, and when the appeal to the league failed, the Rockets began to choose to mess up.
The Bird clause was not introduced until 1984. It was too late for the Rockets!
This year, the Rockets went 14-68 and got the No. 1 pick. The selected rookie Sampson scored 21 points, 11 rebounds and 2.4 blocks in his first year. Unfortunately, Sampson failed in just three years because of The injury is gone!
eighth place: 1999 Grizzlies , record 8 wins and 42 losses, winning rate: 16%!
This year's shortened regular season had only 50 games. At that time, the Raptors and the Grizzlies were both newcomers from Canada. The Raptors successively selected Tracy McGrady , Carter and others, and the ball market became increasingly hot and slow. The Grizzlies are slowly gaining a foothold, but the Grizzlies are completely empty and miserable, so 1999 is an excellent opportunity for the Grizzlies.
As a result, I didn't expect that after 8 wins and 42 losses, I didn't get the No. 1 pick. Then I retreated to the next pick, Francis , and refused to report to Vancouver . This year was wasted by and !
The Rockets were ranked fifth in the Western Conference and got Francis, the second overall pick!
seventh place: 2005 Eagles , record 13 wins and 69 losses, winning rate: 15.9%!
html In the 003-04 season, Rahim went to Trail Blazers , Stephen Jackson went to Pacers , Rasheed Wallace went to Pistons , Jason Terry went to Mavericks, Bob Sura went to the Rockets, and the entire team was in pieces. In the end, under the leadership of Antoine Walker, the Hawks only achieved a record of 13 wins and 69 losses. What's even more regrettable is that they only received the second pick!At that time, Bogut was selected by the Bucks. The Hawks could also choose Chris Paul and Deron . However, the Hawks ignored them and chose Marvin Williams .
The Eagles missed Paul and Deron!
sixth place: Clippers in 1987, record 12 wins and 70 losses, winning rate: 14.6%!
87 was known as the year of the draft . Well-known players this year included David Robinson, Gilliam, Reggie Williams, Pippen, Kevin Johnson, Kenny Smith, reggie miller , cobra grant and so on, so many teams began to choose to mess up. In the end, the Clippers came out on top with 12 wins and 70 losses. However, the No. 1 pick was taken by the 28-Win Spurs, and the second pick was taken by the 36-Win Suns. The pick was taken away by the 24-win Nets, and the Clippers, Knicks, and Kings didn't end well.
fifth place: Nets in 2010, record of 12 wins and 70 losses, winning rate: 14.6%!

At the end of the season, the Nets had a record of 7 wins and 63 losses. playoff The overall situation has been decided. The Kings, Pistons, Spurs and other teams have let go before the Nets got 12 wins and saved a little face. In addition, Yi Jianlian The best data in his NBA career, 12 points and 7.2 rebounds, was won by the Nets this year. Arrived!
Because of the Nets' poor record, Yi Jianlian only got a basic salary contract after this data!
Fourth place: Mavericks in 1993, record 11 wins and 71 losses, winning rate: 13.4%!
The Mavericks were an out-and-out bad team in those years, with 28 wins in 1991 and 22 wins in 1992. In 1993, the Mavericks made matters worse and lost Jim Jackson, who averaged 16.3 points per game. Jim Jackson , so 1 It’s not unusual to have 1 win and 71 losses. The only pity is that the Mavericks were so unlucky this year that they missed out on the No. 1 pick, No. 2 pick, and No. 3 overall pick, only getting the No. 4 pick. finally watched Chris Webber and Penny Hardaway. Selected by the Magic and Warriors!
third place: Nuggets in 1998, 11 wins and 71 losses, winning rate 13.4%!
html In 1996, the Nuggets sent Mutombo away and prepared to compete for Tim Duncan. However, they were eventually picked up by the San Antonio Spurs, so the Nuggets had no choice but to continue to mess up. At that time, Olowokandi, the No. 1 pick in 1998, was known as the No. two html l1 Hakeem Olajuwon , but the Nuggets only got one No. 3 pick. The good thing is that LaFrentz was better than Olowokandi, but the bad news is that they did not choose Carter and Nowitzki , Pierce and others!html In 2096, many teams competed for Duncan, and the Nuggets were one of them!
Second place: Philadelphia 76ers in 1973, 9 wins and 73 losses, winning rate: 11%!
The 76ers' record in those years was actually not bad. In 1971, they were ranked second in the Eastern Conference. At that time, the competition between the NBA and ABA was extremely fierce. As a result, in the summer of 1972, the team's top core averaged 24.1 points, 12.2 rebounds, 6.3 assists and 2.6 steals per game. profit Cunningham was poached by the Carolina Cougars of the ABA League with a heavy salary. Just like the Cavaliers who left James in 2018, the team's morale plummeted, although Collins, their No. 1 pick, performed well. Not bad, but still far from Cunningham!
first place: Bobcats in 2012, 7 wins and 59 losses, winning rate: 10.6%!
html In 2011, the Bobcats selected Kemba Walker . In order to train him, the Bobcats sent away the former team core Gerald Wallace and Stephen Jackson. Unexpectedly, Kemba Walker grew too slowly as a rookie. There were only 12 points and 4.4 assists in the year, so the Bobcats simply broke the pot and shocked the world with a 23-game losing streak at the end of the season with a record of 7-59!Kemba Walker, who has been trained for many years, is still just an ordinary All-Star!
However, the Bobcats were a little less lucky in the lottery and only got the second pick. With Bill, Lillard, Barnes, Drummond and others all present, Jordan Still stubbornly chose Michael Gilchrist, Jordan's vision is as stable as ever!
