There are plenty of factors that went into why the Warriors lost that game in Milwaukee on Saturday night. “But I don’t think we ever played our A-plus game”.
The Milwaukee Bucks ended the Golden State Warriors’ undefeated season on Saturday night, and now a fan will have a chance to own the game ball.
The Warriors are 24-1, and they might well be 27-1 when they meet the Cavaliers at Oracle Arena.
For a team that is trying to defend its NBA Championship, going all out every night was never a great idea. The team consumed 149 days since the season started without losing not until they played against the Bucks.
Cleveland squares off with Golden State on Christmas Day in Oakland, which will be among the best regular-season games of 2015-16. “That’s why it’s so hard to do what these guys have done so far”. Tonight it caught up to us. The streak was going to come to an end at some point, and the Bucks just happened to have the stars align for them in order to be the team to do it. “When you talk about the streak, what’s bigger than the streak is they’re the world champs”. Smith said last month that he wanted to face Golden State in the NBA Finals again, and that looks like a likely scenario. On the seventh game of a seven game road trip, the Warriors were on a back to back after defeating the Boston Celtics in a double overtime contest.
Klay Thompson, who had returned to the lineup after sitting out a game with an ankle injury, expressed disappointment because he felt the Warriors had beat themselves.
However, in the moment, Walton stated that the team will be flying back to the Golden State and do some unwinding a bit. No doubt its an auspicious achievement but my comment is that The Lakers still hold the record for the most consecutive games won in a season.
