Damn look at Detroit with these tteams. Pistons best record. Wings best record. Tigers best record so far. Lions errrrr ok forget the last one.

Anybody ever remember this happening. I can't recall out of the major sports 3 teams from the same city having the best record.

im probably wrong but how about the lakers, raiders and dodgers in 83

Dodgers did not have the best record in 1983, they did win their division, then lost to Philly in the NLCS.

best record doesn't equal championship and that's all what matters.

In '83 the Raiders were 12-4 while the Redskins were 14-2 with both losses being by a single point; that Super Bowl still gives me the shakes. Also, I believe the Sixers had the NBA's best record in '83.

Pretty amazing but true the Sox finished 1/2 game behind Tigers in a strike shortened year, this would never fly today! They played one less game so were not given the same chance...Detroit went on to lose to the A's (eventual champs)

Det 86-70
Bos 85-70

Btw that was 1972, Baltimore had the best record in baseball in 1971 as they also did in 1969 and 1970, winning 320 games in the 3 yr span.
