The Golden State Warriors matched the mark for the best start by a defending champ, improving to 14-0 with their win over the Chicago Bulls on Friday night.
The 1957-58 Celtics are the only defending champ to start with that good of a mark. And only two teams have started better than the Warriors have started this season.
The Warriors led 77-73 entering the fourth quarter on Friday, but pulled away late. The key to the win was how the Warriors shut the Bulls down from inside.
