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?
2016 Warriors no doubt. Baseball is usually a lot more variable, and regular season standings are a lot less indicative of which teams will win short playoff series
