Greatest NBA Teams Who Never Won a Championship

Listen to Rob Parker and Chris Broussard discuss recent comments made by former NBA player Matt Barnes that had the one-time Los Angeles Clippers enforcer telling Chris Paul in an interview that he thought their Clippers teams of the mid-2010's was the greatest NBA team who never won an NBA Finals.

Those 'Lob City' teams, of course, were highlighted by All-NBA superstars Chris Paul and Blake Griffin, but also featured a loaded supporting cast that featured names the likes of DeAndre Jordan, JJ Redick, Jamal Crawford, Darren Collison, Chauncey Billups, Caron Butler and Eric Bledsoe.

Despite also boasting a Hall of Fame championship coach in Doc Rivers, those Clippers teams shockingly never advanced past the second round of the playoffs.

Check out the video above as both Rob and Chris with Barnes’ comments anointing the 2010’s Clippers as one of the greatest teams to NEVER win it all, and instead give much more viable candidates the likes of the 1960’s Lakers, late-1980’s Rockets, late-1990's Jazz, early-2000’s Kings, mid-2000’s Suns, early-2010’s Thunder, and MORE.
