Big 5-0: Warriors become fastest in NBA history to 50 wins

ATLANTA -- Stephen Curry pumped a fist, wagged a finger and even gave a little shimmy with his shoulders.

Chalk up No. 50 for the Golden State Warriors.

On a night when Curry scored 36 points - in other words, just another day at the office - the Warriors became the fastest team in NBA history to 50 wins in a season with a 102-92 victory over the Atlanta Hawks.
