10 Greatest NBA Dynasties Of All-Time

#1 Boston Celtics (mid-1950's to late 1960's)

Boston Celtics won 11 championships in 13 years.

Championships - 11 (1957, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 68, 69)

Easily the greatest dynasty of all-time.

At one point, the Boston Celtics won 11 championships in 13 years, including eight straight from 1959 to 1966. Six of their eleven titles came at the expense of the Los Angeles Lakers. Of course, the number of teams, and to some extent, even the competition might have lesser than it is right now but it still requires a lot of mental fortitude and competitive drive to keep winning like these Celtics have.

At the center of this dynasty were Red Auerbach (head coach) and his jewel find Bill Russell. In fact, for the last two championships in 1968 and 1969, Russell was both a player and the coach. Jordan might always be the "greatest player of all-time" but Russell is often regarded as the greatest champion of all-time".

No dynasty has and will never come close to achieving what the Celtics of the 1960's did.
