First NBA team to record 20 wins in the 2009-10 regular season?

Background: http://www.nba.com/standings/team_record_comparison/conferenceNew_Std_Cnf.html

After getting off to great starts the past two seasons, the Celtics are at it again. They opened the 2009-10 season by beating LeBron and Shaq in Cleveland, held the Bobcats to 59 points, and are currently 6-0.......
The next best start to the season is from the Denver Nuggets, who shot out of the gates to a 5-0 record.

They are the hottest teams to start the season, but what will happen over the next few weeks? Will it be the Celtics, Nuggets, or some other team that is the fastest to 20 wins?

Settlement details:As reported by a major mainstream news source.
Prediction cut-off will be start time of game that the first team records 20th win.
Settlement will be determined on day-by-day basis, not actual time.. So, if two or more teams are the fastest to 20 wins, and both accomplish this on the same day, question will settle as "Other team or Any tie"
