GS Warriors one win away from setting new NBA record for most wins to start a season

Ah Basketball, along with Hockey the only popular American sports I've failed to get into yet.

Basketball is popular world wide and Hockey is a Canadian thing.

I dunno, basketball seems way more popular over here than in Europe. Also I live in New England, hockey is very popular here.

Not like it is in Canada. I remember going to a library in Canada where there was one section for sports and another one of approximately the same size for hockey. I also doubt people in New England find hockey exciting to do this when your team loses:

If and when you do explore hockey I highly recommend attending live games first. I watch both the same way, most of my attention is away from the ball/ puck. I get more enjoyment out of watching plays develop which I think broadcasts can't quite capture. The Bruins might be pricey, but there's several quality college teams near you.

35-5 in baseball is ridiculous.  Don't get me wrong, I'm probably equally as impressed with GS 23-0 and I would LOVE to see them beat the 72-10 record, but mainly because I despise Jordan so much.  

Regardless of how anyone feels about the Bulls or Jordan, that 72-10 season was amazing. Even with the head start Golden State currently enjoys, that's going to be a tough mark to beat. I hope they do it. Records were made to be broken.

I HATED Jordan.  everything about him.  I was 9 when Detroit won their back to back titles in 88-89, but those games with the Bulls were so intense and there was really bad blood.  I was taught to despise Jordan.  His skills were without question, but his character in combination made him deplorable in my eyes.  

Detroit had Laimbeer. Pistons fans may have loved the guy, but no one else did.

Oh and we know that

I've met Laimbeer a few times.  He's as big a DB as you would expect.

Dumb butt?

Of course!

Sayonara consecutive win record. Lost tonight on a back to back to the Bucks following a double overtime win against Boston in which they were missing two starters. Drayman and Steph both played huge minutes. Frankly I'm glad they lost if the effort to win would have cost another injury to anyone. What matters most is winning the championship (first, second and third) with beating the Bulls record for most wins in a season coming in a distant fourth place.
