Many feats are considered untouchable due to the fact that no player or team has approached the mark set. This is especially true in baseball, such as DiMaggio's hit streak, Cy Young's win total, etc.
But you don't hear about it often with basketball. 72-10 seems out of reach for a team at the NBA level competition because it would need all of the perfect ingredients that the 1996 Bulls had, and this includes having the greatest player of all time (this ingredient seems the most unlikely to be replicated). Since it does not seem likely that a player will be as effective as Michael Jordan in the foreseen future, I look at 72 wins as unreachable.
The scary thing is to think that Dennis Rodman missed 18 games that season.
