1996: With an 86-80 win over the Milwaukee Bucks at the Bradley Center, the Chicago Bulls become the first team in NBA history to record 70 wins in a season, break the 1971/72 Los Angeles Lakers 69-win season. The Bulls would win two of their last three games, posting a record of 72-10, which would stand as the best ever season in the NBA for two decades. In the Bulls 70th win, Michael Jordan leads the way with 22 points and nine boards.
