At the time the 1-15 Raptors travelled to Atlanta to take on the 2-12 Hawks, in what many dubbed as possibly the worst regular season game in NBA history, as both teams combined win percentage of .100 surely ranks among the worst ever.

For Raptors’ fans, this game marked an all-time low in the dark era of the mid-2000’s. But, when looking back on this game, it also marks a point of remarkable turnaround, as the Raptors would go on to win the Atlantic Division the very next year.
