The Grizzlies can be forgiven for popping up on the list, considering it was their 1st season in the NBA. There wasn't a great deal of talent on the team and they were expected to have a pretty awful record.

The Grizzlies started in stunning fashion for an expansion team, winning their first 2 games, but it was a mirage and nothing more. They lost the next game to Dallas and went on a 19 game losing run which many would have thought would be the low point of the season. They even recovered somewhat and were 11-37 and then it got ugly. They lost to the Hawks by 10 points and kept losing from then on. The losing run would end after a 105-103 win over the TWolves. The two long losing runs ensured that the Grizzlies crashed to a 15-67 record. It would get worse the following year with a 14-68 record and it was only after Jerry West became the executive that their fortunes flipped.
