INDIANAPOLIS - Warriors interim head coach Luke Walton says he’s going to greenlight the team’s chase for the NBA’s all-time winning streak if it gets to 30 or 31 wins in a row.
But it appears as though the Warriors’ players have already decided to stomp down on the accelerator, turning Bankers Life Fieldhouse on Tuesday night into an in-team shooting contest during a 131-123 victory over the Pacers that moved the Warriors into a second-place tie among the league’s all-time winning streaks.
Having won the final four regular-season games of 2014-15 and adding a record-breaking 23-0 start to this season, the Warriors equaled the 2012-13 Miami Heat’s 27-game winning streak.
