NBA teams have gone through good and bad moments during their entire existence. Some franchises have spent more time at the top than at the bottom of the food chain but once they went down, it was really bad for them. Of course, when things are going fine, they can reach a certain level of wellness but when they’re wrong, things tend to get worse very quickly and easily.
Fans recently remembered when their favorite teams were in a bad place, struggling to get the results and sending starting lineups that were nothing compared to the ones they featured during their best moments. Famous Youtuber Kenny Beecham, also known as KOT4Q (short for King of the 4th Quarter) asked the NBA community what was the worst lineup their favorite teams ever sent to the court.

We have seen some bad lineups in recent years, even with two historical teams sending very very poor starting 5s to the floor while they were going through a big crisis.
Well, Beecham unlocked a lot of bad memories from fans and it’s time to see some of the best (or worst) responses they had for this painful question.

Some of these teams lived very bad times and most of them have turned things around, becoming competitive squads. If you are a fan of them and managed to live through all of that, you should be happy to see all the improvements of your team. Now we have championship candidates, playoffs contenders and teams with a bright future, something that looked very unlikely when these pics were taken.
