The 2001 Seattle Mariners won 116 games yet got demolished in the MLB equivalent of the conference finals 4-1. The 2016 Warriors won 73 games but lost in the Finals after blowing a 3-1 lead.

Both teams had the best record of all time. But didn’t win it all. Which was more disappointing?

    The fact that the Warriors won the championship in both the season before and after this, and have won two more times after that, is more than enough to make the Mariners’ season more disappointing. The Mariners followed that 116 win season with a 21 year playoff drought. The two really do not compare.
