Yes, in the 1972-73 season, the 76 ers won only 9 of 82 regular-season games, becoming the only team in the NBA with less than 10 wins in a single season. That season, the 76ers suffered a losing streak of 15 at the beginning, and soon after the beginning of the new year, they ushered in a losing streak of 2 1, and the regular season ended in a bleak losing streak of 14. This season, they have lost at least four games in a row 13. Throughout the season, the 76ers only won two consecutive victories once. At that time, the main problem of the 76ers was poor defense, with an average loss of points as high as 1 16.2 points.
Why did the champion who was arrogant in previous seasons fall into such a situation? In fact, since Chamberlain 1968 left for the Los Angeles Lakers, the 76ers have been going downhill. Hall Greer and Cunningham are the last members of the 1967 champion team. By the 1972- 1973 season, Jorge Greer was already in his 14 season, and the peak period had already passed, and the 76 ers were also left behind. Just then, the top scorer and main striker Cunningham moved to Aba, which brought a fatal blow to the 76 ers.
