How many regular season champions in the NBA have failed to become champions in the end?

First of all, among the top teams in the regular season in the past 20 years, only six teams have won the championship, but there are 16 teams that have reached the division finals! If the division finals are used as the passing line, then the remaining three teams will be seriously unqualified in the second round and one team in the first round! Let’s take a look at the following and focus on which teams that failed the qualifications led the teams?

The top teams that won the championship have a total of six teams, including the Spurs and the Warriors two times each!

In 2003, the Spurs won 60 wins in the league this year. In the second round of the playoffs, they finally crossed the Lakers mountain and won the championship!

The Lakers often took turns to rest in those years, so the Spurs, the number one in the West, had a headache!

In 2008, the Celtics won 66 games in the first year of the team formation of the Big Three. Although they scored twice in the playoffs, the ending was good. They defeated the Lakers 4:2 in the finals and got this hard-won championship ring!

In 13, the Heat, the Heat's Big Three teams won the top spot in the league in this year. In the finals, they met the team's impeccable basketball Spurs. In the end, relying on Ray Allen's three-pointer to change their lives, and the Heat reversed the Spurs and won the championship!

The Spurs in 14, and the Spurs, who lost in 2013, made a comeback in the second year. The finals were determined to sweep the Heat 4:1 and avenge a single shot in 13 years!

The Warriors in 15, with 67 wins in the regular season, Love was absent in the finals, and the Warriors finally solved the battle in six games!

The Warriors in 2017 have no suspense since the day Durant joined the championship this year!

Durant joined the Warriors, and the Rockets and James were the ones who were injured the most!

The top teams that reached the division finals had 10 teams, many of which were led by MVP players!

In 2001, the Spurs became the top team because O'Neal was lazy and rested, and the Spurs became the top team. The Spurs were swept by the Lakers 0:4 in the Western Conference Finals!

02 Kings, a controversial round of series, with an average score difference of only 5 points in seven games. If the Kings win, they will also easily defeat the Nets in the finals!

In 2004, Miller, O'Neal Jr. and Atei formed a team, and unfortunately lost to the Pistons in the Eastern Conference Finals!

In 2005, the match between the Spurs and the Suns can always verify one sentence: Defensively wins the championship!

In 2009, James, who averaged 38+8+8 per game, failed to lead the team to defeat the Magic. You can imagine how strong Howard was this year!

11 Bulls, although Ross was strong, no one expected them to beat the Heat at that time!

In 12, the Spurs lost to the Thunder 2:4, but unfortunately, the Third Young Master of the Thunder was disbanded just after he scored!

In 18, the Rockets narrowly won the game, and the Rockets had a lead in the sixth and seventh games in the first half, but they were turned over by the Warriors! The Warriors swept the Cavaliers 4:0 in the finals. Are the Rockets angry?

In the 19th Bucks, in the Eastern Conference Finals, Antetokounmpo completely fell into a disadvantage in the battle with Leonard!

In 16, the Warriors defeated the Warriors 73 and reversed the Thunder and rushed to the finals. As a result, they were reversed by the Cavaliers under a 3:1 lead and lost a good game!

A Rockets team that looks beautiful and gorgeous in playing!

The top teams in the second round were three teams, Duncan, James and Antetokounmpo!

The Spurs in 2006 won 63 in the regular season, lost to the Spurs twice in the playoffs in 2001 and 2003, and finally contributed a classic "bull and horse battle" in the Western Conference semi-finals in 2006! After seven games, the Mavericks narrowly defeated the Spurs 4:3. The surprise player on the Mavericks was Josh Howard, and Duncan, the Spurs, averaged 32.3 points, 11.7 assists and 2.6 blocks per game, still failed to save the situation!

The Cavaliers in 10 years, after the Pistons, the Celtics became James' nightmare again. In 2008, the Cavaliers lost to the Celtics, and in 2010, the Celtics eliminated the Cavaliers in the second round. Perhaps because of this, James gave up the idea of ​​leading the team alone!

20 in the Bucks, Antetokounmpo lost to Leonard in 1V1 in 2019, but Antetokounmpo lost even worse in the PK with Butler in 2020, and was almost swept away with a score of 1:4!

The regular season MVP lost to the finals MVP!

The only top team in the first round, the Mavericks in 2007!

The Mavericks' record this year is 67 wins, and the Pistons, the number one in the East, only 53 wins. What's more important is that the Mavericks will lose four consecutive times this season. If not for this, the Mavericks could have reached the 70 wins mark this year!

By chance, the Warriors took the last train of the playoffs! Although the Mavericks lost 0 wins and 3 losses in the regular season, averaging nearly 17 points per game, it seems that the young general Johnson, Nowitzki and others did not take it seriously! As a result, after the playoffs started, the Warriors quickly got the match point 3:1, and at this time the Mavericks realized that the opponents they didn't usually take seriously were so difficult to deal with! In the end, the Mavericks suffered a tragic defeat of the black eight!

Old Nelson: Ginger is still so spicy!

Although so many top teams failed to win the championship, according to statistics, more than 80% of the championships come from the top three teams in the league. Therefore, if you want to win the championship, you still have to work hard to win the top three in the regular season!
