List of the all-time Youngest teams?

Hey I was wondering if anyone had seen a list of the youngest NBA teams of all time. I keep on hearing this stat of us being the youngest but I have never actually seen the list and wanted to see at what age the wins started to increase. I have found this for the youngest teams for the current year.

Hmmmm......after much deliberation I have concluded that Fruity Pebbles  is better than Fruit Loops

Not sure the exact dates
One was the 76ers from the seventies and other was the bulls from recent years, around 2000 or so.

Not according to Mike Barrett
Quoting in turn from Elias Stats, Mike Barrett says that the youngest was the 2000-2001 Chicago Bulls, and the second youngest was the 1953-1954 Baltimore Bullets.  http://mikebarrettsblog.blogspot.com/2007/12/chasing-number-10.html

You got it third-hand from em.

I dunno...
I always kind of liked Fruit Loops.

But seriously I think that this team is going have some franchises second guessing themselves about some choices between veteran vs. youth.

wondering???
Im wondering what was the youngest team to ever make the play-offs?

That probably would be . . .
That team from out West that won it all in June 1977.

IIRC, the average age of that team was within a month of the average age of this Blazers team. (Correct me if I am wrong.)

I believe you are right
That's one of the things that excites me about the Blazers - how much they remind me (not on an individual basis but on a team play basis) of the '76-'77 Blazers.  It would be interesting if, like that team, the Blazers come back next year to win it all after having their first-round draft pick injured.  Granted, Walton was injured for his first two seasons, but he did play for part of those seasons, whereas Oden is out his rookie year.
