Warriors chase all-time record

Warriors chase all-time record

Back in 1995 the Chicago Bulls were able to set the NBA record for the best record of all time. They were able to win 72 games and only lose over their entire tenth season. The team boasted many superstars such as Michael Jordan and Steve Kerr. All this immense talent would have gone to complete waste if they had a bad coach. But luckily for the team they were led by Coach Phil Jackson. Coach Jackson is known as one of the best coaches in the history of the game. The Bulls over the course of that season were truly dominant in every aspect of the game possible. There had never been a team before that played as well as the Chicago Bulls did. Many experts and commentators thought that there would never be a team like them again.

Now this year the Golden State Warriors have been dominating. They are fighting to beat or at least tie this famous record. Currently the Warriors have played 63 games this year and have won 57 of these. They have won their games by an average of slightly over ten points which is a huge margin. There are around 15 games remaining for this record to be broken. One of the main reasons that the Warriors are so successful is because this year they boast stars like Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson. They are also the best shooting team from three point range in the whole NBA.

The Warriors have a great chance of beating this record and it will be fascinating to see if they will be able to succeed and trump it. This team sets a great example and shows that achieving great things is very possible in today’s world. This is very motivational and can be used as an example for high school teams. It also shows that it is important to work together exactly like the Warriors do. Hopefully the Warriors are able to break this what seemed to be unbreakable record.
