A 20-game winning streak is improbable, and Shane Battier believes it is even more improbable when you consider the club accomplishing it.

"I'm willing to concede we're the worst team in NBA history to have a 20-game winning streak," Battier said. "I'm willing to concede that.

"People ask 'why?' I ask 'why not?' Why not? Why can't you? There is no rule in sports that just because you don't have the superstars, you don't have a certain look that other teams have, it doesn't mean you have to be a certain team. Our team is still developing. It is fun to see the growth of this team together. We're playing so well together and we have such great chemistry, anything is possible."

The 70-71 Bucks won 20 in a row, and the 71-72 Lakers won 33 consecutive games.
