Good thing they cut it to 39.
No such team has won a title. The 1982 Sixers reached the Finals after a 40-point loss in Game 1 of the East finals to the Celtics. The 1998 Jazz technically did it too but their 40-point loss came in the Finals.

I can't stress this enough: No matter how it's spun, this is not genius cap maneuvering by the Lakers. It's the Lakers surrendering more assets after not getting favorable enough terms in the original Anthony Davis-trade framework.
There are two ways this can go:. 1. Wagner, Jones and Bonga have positive trade value -- in which case the Lakers are giving up even more. 2. Wagner, Jones and Bonga have negative trade value -- in which case the Lakers must give up even more as sweeteners.
