Golden State Warriors set National Basketball Association record with flawless start to season
Reigning NBA Most Valuable Player Stephen Curry led their attack with 24 points and nine assists to go along with four rebounds and two steals.
“During the streak, we had some slippage”, Walton said. The Warriors won 111-77.
In 2008, the Pats made it to the Super Bowl on the heels of a 16-0 regular season but lost a shocker to the Giants, courtesy of David Tyree’s helmet catch.
It hasn’t been easy to be away as he heals. Its biggest threat – if it’s even possible to have one at this point – will likely be the Cavs, but at this point, we don’t see anyone slowing them down. “So I know he’ll come out of it”. He wants us having fun.
“We also reminded them that it’s November”, Walton continued. “We’re trying to get better and we’re focused….”
Bryant looked like a 37-year-old who had barely played the last two seasons.
In Milwaukee, Greg Monroe had 20 points and 13 rebounds in his first game against his former team, leading the Bucks to the 109-88victory over the Pistons.
For Kerr, mindfulness means not relying on just talent to outdo an opponent or focusing on individual marks.
But if they somehow can navigate this road stretch unscathed, the camera crews and press hordes will be back in even greater numbers. The Suns have the next shot at stopping this incredible start when the Warriors visit Phoenix Friday night. After that, the Warriors return home to host Sacramento on Saturday.
“Usually the game is worth the price of admission, and the last game was no exception”.
“Dub Nation is the best fan base in the NBA”, Curry said. By his standards, he had a bad night in that the league’s Most Valuable Player only hit four of his 12 attempts from beyond the three-point line.
The reality of basketball is just that, a loss is coming but when?
The Warriors, who tied the 15-0 card of the 1948-49 Washington Capitols and 1993-94 Houston Rockets on Sunday, set a new record with their 16th win in as many games this season and they were hardly threatened.
Golden State has been unstoppable since the season started. So we gotta keep it going.
The Warriors are aiming for larger things, and their relatively subdued reaction Tuesday night after breaking the record was the surest sign of that.
Kobe Bryant shot 1 of 14 for just four points, matching the worst-shooting performance of his career in a game where he had at least one basket.
Golden State shot 48.9 percent from the field and 34.3 percent from 3-point range. “Because if not it becomes so easy you just kind of coast, you kind of fall into a malaise”.
“I think it comes with a lot of health”, says James when asked to comment about the Warriors being at their best start to a season with a spotless 15-0 card.
The Warriors have not avoided talking about their record-setting start, choosing to acknowledge it often as the wins piled up. No tattoos to commemorate this accomplishment. Golden State’s 16th win was a romp, a casual stomping of a once great power. They refrain from playing their best lineup all that often – the “death lineup” comprised of Curry, Klay Thompson, Iguodala, Harrison Barnes, Draymond Green – because they don’t really need to.
