16-54 (.229) by the Baltimore Bullets in 1952-53 season

Hard to believe a team who's star player is this guy could lose this many games, but it happened. Even more unbelievable is the fact that they made the playoffs. One can only assume that Gary Bettman was commissioner at this point in NBA history, and that every team made the playoffs like they do now in hockey. As awful as the NBA East currently is, teams need to approach at least a .500 record in order to make the playoffs. With a record not even above the "Clipper Line" (20 wins), this record will never be broken.
