Pretty sure the longest streak was 33 games by the Lakers during the Magic Johnson / Kareem era. Don't remember the year.

Then the Shaq/Kobe Lakers had a streak of about 22 games in the 99-00 or 00-01 season, I remember lots of talk about possibly breaking the record.

I would think www.nba.com has this information somewhere...
