Official '15-16 NBA Season Thread: THEY WON ONE FOR THE LAND

Just keep dangling 73 in front of GS, they can exhaust themselves chasing that.

Spurs have the single season home winning streak.

No one cares about the home streak with 73 on the line
 
So was mark Jackson right the whole time about # fullsquad?
 
Twenty 3's at home against a 3rd place team from the East, and still lose. Time to bring back Luke.

They sure talk about it enough for not caring. On top of that losing at home is a big blow towards 73. Dropped from 81% chance of doing it to 51% after that loss. At this point with the Spurs on cruise control, the only reason 73 matters is because it would be a psychological blow to GS's confidence.

It would not be very rational to lose confidence over a 71 or 72 win season. Besides, they'd have two playoff rounds to "recover" before potentially facing the Spurs.
 
also a nice job by that punk the black albatross taking that ridiculous 3 at the buzzer instead of handing it to a wide open curry

GS, as a team, has invested a lot into getting the record.
 
Dubs owner Joe Lacob a is bit drunk on success...

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/04/03/m...ists-took-over-the-golden-state-warriors.html

But Lacob won’t accept that what the Warriors have achieved is a product of anything but a master plan. “The great, great venture capitalists who built company after company, that’s not an accident,” he said. “And none of this is an accident, either.”

After the pickup game, Lacob pulled on a sweatshirt and went to breakfast at a cafeteria on the ground floor. He goes there so often that one of the smoothies on the menu, involving orange juice, vanilla yogurt, bananas and strawberries, has been named for him. He pointed this out, then ordered one. When I asked him about the previous night’s game, he could hardly contain himself. He boasted that the Warriors are playing in a far more sophisticated fashion than the rest of the league. “We’ve crushed them on the basketball court, and we’re going to for years because of the way we’ve built this team,” he said. But what really set the franchise apart, he said, was the way it operated as a business. “We’re light-years ahead of probably every other team in structure, in planning, in how we’re going to go about things,” he said. “We’re going to be a handful for the rest of the N.B.A. to deal with for a long time.”
