The Golden State Warriors who in their 25 game of the season lost their first game against a young naïve Milwaukee Bucks team that were the first team all season that had a huge response to ever run the Warriors had. Give a huge assist in the lose to the Boston Celtics who took the Warriors to double overtime and yes the Bucks played also but only had to play hard for 48 minutes against the Toronto Raptors instead of 58 even harder minutes Warriors had to handle against the Celtics.
So Steph Curry and Klay Thompson and the Warriors now set their sites on the all-time season record of 72-10 by the Chicago Bulls in '95-'96 season and are ahead of the Bulls by a game after 25. The Warriors may of caught a huge break when Klay only missed the Celtics game with a sprain that happened late in Tuesday game against the Indiana Pacers up 7 with less than a minute left in the game and u can not put your stars in garbage time.
They have a never lose mentality and have been really tough to put away just ask the Clippers who were up 23 15 minutes into a November 19 game in LA and the Warriors would come out to play in the second half outscoring the clips 70-49 and winning by 7 a huge 30 point turnaround. Also they went into game 7 of a 7 game roadie perfect and would've been the only perfect 7 game roadie in NBA history. They have gotten favorable calls in some games (ie against the Raptors) but it is the NBA and the better players and teams get help from the refs it is just the nature of the NBA.
The thing about the Warriors and why they have a good shot at the best all-time record is because the only ways u beat them is if Klay or Steph get hurt or u play a full 48 because if u blink they can put up 20 in a second with ease. Talk about ease you are talking about Steph's shot as it is so flawless that he could do it in his sleep and he was so stunned by the first loss that he may bury the Bucks by double-digits by himself next week.
It is also amazing that head coach Brett Brown of the 1-23 Sixers has a two year contract extension and Luke Walton the head coach of the 24-1 Warriors is 0-0 but when Steve Kerr comes back to the bench Walton will become the hot new assistant and a head coach soon after somewhere else (philly?).
Now Warriors more wins or Sixers more
